WOMEN IN INDIA

Lecture By Prof. D. K. Karve

There

was

good gathering

in the Hall of the Sindh Hindu Merchants' Club, China Building. on Saturday evening to hear un absorbingly intoresting lecture on **The Education of Women in India," given by Professor D. K. Karve, founder and organiser of the. Shreemati Nathibai Damoilher Thackersay, Indian Women's Unl- versity. Poona.

Mr. G. P. Daswani, President of the Club, in introducing the lec- turer, said:--

Ladies and Gentlemen: I thank you very much for your presence here to-night. It is my great pleasure and privilege to introduce to you that venerable leader of education, Professor D. K. Karve. I do not think you will need any further words from me about him, other than what you have already read in the local newspapers,

In short, Tahould like to say what he has done towards the noble cause of feminine India, and especially that of the oppressed widows of that

country. It is due to the great efforts of Professor Karve and a faw others like him that India is being relieved from social evils, and also the lack of education, not only amongst women-upon which sub- ject he will speak to-night,—but amongst the boys of the country an well.

I will not take up any more of your time, but will now call upon Professor Karve to entertain you with his lecture. {Appinuse).

Professor Karve, in his lec- tare said that the question of education of women was a very vital one indeed for India and he thought that this was not being realised by the people and the Government.

First College

. Women's education, Professor Karve continued, had been neglect- ed. Some 70 years ago an establish- ment was founded, but only for the elementary atage and for another 20 years education remained neglected.

The first college came into exist ence in Bengal. Later, the Govern- ment gave Poona a high school for girts,

from with help missionaries which, however, was not taken advantage of.

Later, "the mother tongue of the students became the medium `for Instruction" and, the Professor emphasised, that is essential in the education of women in Indle to the present day.

Parenta Views

Of course, the lecturer sald, the English language is very much harder than any of the many Indian languages and this made it difficult. For men it was a great obstacle; but to make a career worthy of one's entrance into world life, men must go and learn the language of Its Intercourse in order to study for a career at the university.
