FEMININE PARLIAMENT
Women dominated one of the most popular discussions of the British Association recently—the difficulties met with in child education.

The Duchess of Atholl, in a black gown, sat in the high-backed presidential chair, while the Misses G. Hume, E. Wheeler and A. H. McAllister gave their experiences of disabilities which children suffer from learning. The presence of so many women made this a feminine parliament of science.
