Women and Public Work.
Dr. Callaway, F.G.S., speaking at a Suffrage Meeting in England the other day, remarked that the Linnaean Society had obtained a new chai ter, under which women could be admitted to membership, and some had been proposed for fellowship. He had approached the Geological Society on the same subject, but meantime unsuccessfully. He (Dr Callaway) contended that some of the best scientific work during the last twenty yeais had been done by women. So far as they bad gone, the part taken by them in public work had been an unmitigated advantage, and if this had been so in educational and social matters, the inference was that it would be also fj in the wider sphere of political work.
