WOMAN'S PLACE IN THE WORLD.
WHERE THE MODERN GIRL FAILS.
FATHER GALLAGHER'S VIEWS ON FEMININE ATTRIBUTES.
The following is the full text of the lecture delivered at St. Patrick's Hall on Wednesday by Father Gallagher, S.J.,' on the place and influence in the world of woman." Though the first tremors of the modern movement to improve the statur of woman were felt as far back as the middle of the 17th century, it was not until within the laat 70 years that interest in the question was really aroused, Many names have been given to it, according to the particular phase exercising people's minds at the time. Writers nowadays group the

An Indirect Answer.
Is woman less intelligent than man? I shall answer that question indirectly.
Another factor in the elevation of woman is the glory of Mary, the Mother of God. Sho, a woman, is the greatest of God's creatures. In g her is embodied överything perfect in virginity and motherhood. Res. pect for woman rises or falls with rospect for Our Blessed Lady. Down the centuries She has been the Ideal of Art; and the chivalry of the Middle Ages immortalized its courtesy towards and its rever- ence for womanhood in the beauty of its Madonnas. The Ideal is in striking contrast to the want of an ideal in pre-Christian paganism, and In pagan countries, whether pre-in the renascence of paganism in

Theatre at Stratford-on-Avon is the work of a woman, who won in open competition from a number of well- known architects. Far back in the Middle Ages women also won fame, and held chairs in Universities. They practiced medicine. In fact there was not a profession in which they did not participate.
