Dame Louise Mellroy, the sur- geon, at the Conference of the Na- tional Council of Women of Great Britain, in London, antd that if women doctors were going to rise to chairs in the universities and to positions as medical officers of health, they must keep their noses to the grindstone, as the men did, and aim higher and higher.
