London, Jan. 1.
Two would-be women Barristers awaited with equal eagerness the appending of the Royal signature to the Sex Disqualification Removal Bill on December 23, and since they both were admitted to an Inn of Court on the sowle day—Christmas eve—Mrs. Gwyneth Thomson to Lincoln's Inn and Miss Nor-manton to the Middle Temple, both will go down to posterity the first women law students.
Since Miss Normanton's appli cation was made February, 191 and Mrs. Thomson's only a few months ago, priority may be given to the former.
