Club Meeting Starts Business Women'S Week, When Lilas Trout Was Guest Speaker Hiighligliting the contribution of women through the ages, Miss Lilas Trout, Brampton, was guest speaker at the May meeting af the Bowmanville Business and Professional Women's Club, held at the Balmoral Hotel on Sunday at one o'clock in the form ai a luncheon ta inaugurate the cele- bration af Business Women's Week in Bowmanville. Miss Trout, wha is president ai the Brampton Club and Provin- cial treasurer aif*B. & P. clubs in Ontario, is also active in bus- iness and community affairs in Brampton. She holds the position af a legal stenographer and book- keeper there. She was introduced ta members and guests attending the luncheon meeting, by Pat Berger, convener of the Business Women's Week in Bowmanville. INomexi In ii story Speakng on "Our Heritage", Miss Trout gave some interesting historical facts in connection, with the emancipation of women. As early as 1791 a Frenchwom- an drew up a declaration ai the rights af women and the next year a similar document was pre- pared by Mary Wollstonecraft in. England. In the Middle Ages in England, a time dark and back- ward in many ways, wamen were profitably employed in the Guîlds in connection with the wool in- dustry. There have been great women throughaut history. from Clea- patra down ta aur present cour- ageous Queen Elizabeth. There have been women far-sighted and shrewd, like Queen Isabella ai Spain who reportedly pawned ber jewels ta raise money for Christopher Columbus' voyage which discovered America, or like Queen Elizabeth 1, under wbose firm hand and by whose fertile brain England praspered greatly. There have also been wamen wba worked for the good ai humanity long before this was the fashion, said Miss Trout. Marie Theresa oi Austria in 1717 established the first hospital for smallpox, and ai course everyone knows the story ai Florence Nightingale the founder 'ai the nursing profession.
