SHE'S ONLY WOMAN
IN N. j. LAW SCHOOL
Ethel kynaston Returns from
Ten Years Travel Abroad
to Study Here.
DEFENDS sUFFRAGETTEs
Idea Of Using Hat-pins in
War for Principles Does
Not Shock Her.

Miss Ethel Violet Kynaston, of Mo-
berly, Mo-, who has been studying
and travelling in Europe for the last
ten years, is now a freshman in the
School of Law at the University of
Missouri. She is the only woman
taking work in that school.
81 am studying law because women
are governed by laws just as men
are and therefore should understand
them just as well,'' said Miss Kynas-
ton. Il intend to take the entire
course offered here, but l do not yet
know whether or not l shall practice
law aftsr | graduate"
Il had scarcely thought of it be-
fore my mind was made up, and with
in twenty-four hours, I was in Col
umbia," she remarked.
Saw English Suffragists.
Miss Kynaston was in England dur
ing the spring and summer of 1909,
ana spent mucn of ner time in observ-
ing outbursts of the English suffra-
gists. The idea of emphasizing princi-
pies with hat-pins does not shock her
so much as it does some Americans.
When men defend their rights they
use any sort of weapon they choose.
and are called heroes for it," she said
''but just lst woman use a hat-pin
in fighting for hers and they are hor
rified. 1t may be very nice to sit
down and be lady, but that is not
the way to accomplish things"
While in London in 1909, Miss Kyn-
aston attended an exhibition given
by the English suffragists. There she
saw reproductions OF the cells which
had been occupied by some of the imr-
prisoned suffragists and also the one
in which Charles Stuart Parnell,, the
Irish patriot, had been confined
His cell contained books and COM
Portable furniture, while theirs had
no personal comforts, and yet all were
imprisoned for striving for, liberty
she said. But in spite of their hard
shlps the English sunragists are Win
ming. They already have equal
voice in educational affairs"
Studied Violin in Europe.
Ten years ago Miss Kynaston ceased
her studies in Moberly High School
in order to take her first trip abroad
Since that time she has seldom been
in America. Her first six years in
Europe were spent in studying music
and the languages and histories OF
the countries she visited. She special
lied in the study of violin and took
lessons from Selvic, who at one time
taught the Bohemian violinist, Jan Ku-
belik. The last four years of her
stay in Europe, have been spent al
most exclusively in travel and in
the customs of the people |
She has visited all of the countries |
Of Europe except Russia and Ireland |
Previous to this year Miss Kynas-
ton has done no university work IN |
America. She had not yet been grad
lated from Moberly High School when
she took her first trip abroad. Miss
hynaston spends almost every Satur-
lay and Sunday with her parents WHO
i've in Moberly, Mo. When in Colum-
'ia she stays at POP Hit street.
