The woman's brain is described as well propor- tioned. excellently preserved and a rare specimen. . Upon the question of its rarity the lay render might be pardoned for expressing doubt. A large and weibbalnnced brain in a woman's head is no rarity. But at the other items in the description. one can merely express a calm “of course." The symbolism occurs _in the brain of this active demonstrator of fem- inine capacity now going to a mu- scum as a relic. The ancient controversy upon the question of woman's intelligence and ability has become a. curiosity and u. memory among intelligent people. Once it involved slurs and bitter words.

If the Cornell investigators con- tinue their comparison of the brains of Mrs..Gardencr and the male scientist. they undoubtedly will find differences. Their size may be the same. Their proportions. may be strikingly similar. But there will be unlike twists and qualities which can be attributed as well as to sex difference as to any other cause. Women and men no longer are so far part as in their traditional posi- tion. They are mixed and jumbled together in a. changed world. They are comrades and competitors. friends and lovers and enemies. in- dependent of one another and yet mutually dependent, in ways un- known in the grand old past. One is as smart as another. but not in the same way. They have learned enough about one another and have enough to keep them busy so that they don't argue the foolish old issue of sex superiority—wery much. They may have their private opinions but they don't flaunt them. ‘ The only point to the whole mat- ter is for men and women ouch to deveIOp their own brain endow- .ments for all they are worth. Their business is to fitstheir capacities to the kind and quality of activity to- ward whieh their different qualities direct.

Weaving Revived in English Villages An effort is being made to revive weaving in the moorland villages of Devon. according to the "London News." Time was when every cot- tags on the moor had its hand loom. and here and there an old mill. to which the home workers consorted with their wool for dyeing. still re- mains. Miss M. I’. \‘l'ilicocks. the Devon novelist and essayist and lecturer for the \Vorkers' Educational asso- ciation. has had a little bungalow erected at. Stickiepnth. near Oke- hampton. and there she has set up u. hand loom. probably the only one in Devon. and with an expert friend is weaving tweeds. materials for women's jumpers. as well as cot~ tons and silks. “This is a start." she said. “If I succeed with this one. and I am al- ready doing very well. I shali add another loom and another until I have established a little village in- dustry. I want to interest the peo- ple and induce them to make a start. The looms are made in Sweden and Denmark. and I be- lieve in Ireland, the. They are ra- ther expensive, but if the eottagers take'it up there is no reason why the village carpenter. having seen a pattern. should not make looms at a much lower cost. "The work would be done in the home; there might be a co-opera- tlve system of buying materials and central depots for the sale of hand- woven goods. Switzerland and Ger- many. which have important village and cottage industries for the mak- ing of toys and other things. have a goat advantage overr- England. Why allow this to continue? “Home industries would not only be of interest to our villagers. but also help to brighten their lives. The Devon county council have a school of lace. Why not also a school of weaving? “The children would be taught to do something that would be of real value to them in after life. and it might help "to restore prosperity to the countryside and make life invthe rural areas more attractive."
