THEN and -. NOW

The first woman to become
 a regularly ordained minister was born 89 years ago to-day. She was Antoinette Louise
 Brown, later Mrs. Samuel G.
 Blackwell, the daughter Of a farmer of Henrietta, NY. When she came to consider a college
 education in 1S43 the Collegiate
 Institute, now Oberlin College, was the only institution of it's
 kind in America where women could pursue a collegiate edu- cation. She was graduated in the literary course and in the
 theological school, but al though she established later a reputation as brilliant speak CT, she was refused license as a preacher. She turned to featuring upon women's rights. and was a leading member of the first Woman's Rights Con- vention that met in Worcester. Mass, in 1850. Three years later the bar against her entry 10 the ministry was lowered and she was ordained as pas tor of the Congregational Church at South Butler, N. Y. Later she joined the Unitarian ministry always continuing her agitation for woman suffrage.
