Mrs Sievwright, whose portrait appears on the front page, is well known to many of our readers. A cultured and refined woman, with an incessantly busy brain, she is a living testimony to the fact that an indomitable spirit may triumph over a frail body. In the forma„ tion of the N.Z. Women’s Nationa Council Mrs Sievwright took an active part. By her gentle and graceful man* ner she has won the affection, and by her powerful and logical papers has commanded the admiration of all wha are privileged to know her. Mrs Siev< wright has held the office of Vice< President in the Women's Nationa Council since its inception, and fo
years lias been liie Piesident ot the Gisborne Women’s Political Association. Her widely-spread sympathies cause her to take a keen interest in all that concerns the cause of humanity at home or abroad, and she is unceasingly busy with her voice and pen in helping on every good work.
