Since the Lusitania and Mauretania of
the Cunard line began their record-hreak-

the other side be changed with view to
altering the hour of arrival at New York
sufficiently to afford daylight for in

Mexico's Women Commissioners.

Mexico has fifty commissioners ont

official representatives of the Mexican
government, ten are women.
Miss Juana Palacios, the head of a
normal school for girls at Pueblo, is

despite her German sounding namel is
investigating elementary education in
Chicago. Two other women have been
sent to France. where they are making
n study of the technical schools Mrs.
Laura MendeZ de Cuenca, who has spent
the last two years in Europe, mainly in
Germany, investigating schools, is a
woman of distinction in her own coun-
try. as a poet and writer of travels; she
is also a newspaper correspondent, CON
tributing admirable letters from abroad
to III impartial, the most widely circu-

Its national colleges and professional
schools, including those of music and
art. all give free tuition. and all are
open to women. When the first woman
graduated from the medical school,
about twenty years ago, the minister of
education made her a present of a car
