Nellie Brewer Price is an accurate
person. whose youthful handwriting is
balanced by dignified letter-paper. The
letter bears the heading: "State Of
California, Department of Finance,
Sacramento"
OF all the artistic and professional
and business women met or written
to, she's the first one who refuses to
be beguiled into any opinions on her
own career or that of Miss Average
Girl" So. though 1t goes against the
grain for me to SO much as make the
right change for q dollar, I'll try to be
accurate, tool And as a matter Of
fact there's enough romance in mere
letterhead, with Nellie Brewer Prices
name second in the list of four per-
sons-all otherwise of masculine per-
suasion-who make up the board Of
control Of that marvellous country
known as California. But again I
stand corrected because Mrs. Price in

ing events in her career.
There was a university education.

and learned bookkeeping (whether

part Of the days work, her unroman-
tic self doesn't say). Across the hall

Brewer Price law in exchange for
stenographic work. (Again that vain
wonder about night studyD
For the sake Of accuracy she ac-
knowledges that she was the first
woman admitted to the bar In New
Mexico. (What sort of cases came
to the first woman lawyer in that
state SO much part of us, yet so
close to sid Mexico? She doesn't
