As they are probably aware, an interesting series of Conferences on various branches of women's work is to be held in the Congress Hall at the Japan-British Exhibition during two weeks in June and July. The afternoon of June 8th will be devoted to the discussion of. a University standard in home science. Lady Frederick Cavendish has promised to take the chair, and the • urgent need for a more systematic training in the scientific manage- 'inent of a household will be pointed out by the following well-known ladies : Mrs. St. Loe Strachey, the Duchess of Hamilton, Miss Oakeley, M.A., Miss Faithfull, MA., and Miss Alice Ravenhill. The Conference will be held from three to five, and admission to the Japan-British Exhibition will admit to the Congress Hall.—We are, Sir, &a., 'vverington House, Newbury. THEREBA RiieKBR. ALICE S.
