Few Female Musical Composers.

The reason why women have done so
little good work in the field Of musical
composition is found in their lack Of
mental discipline.
Such work requires thinking powers
of no ordinary degree 1t presumes an
amount of intellectual discipline which
men in general have always had, but
which women were deprived Of until
lately.
Yet in spite of hereditary impediments
and social prejudices the amount OF work
