strength enough to play but this is
by no means true, now. There is no
physical reason for eliminating
women in the field, but the factor
of home life enters in and divides
a woman's attention and she natur-

because the former take their stud-
ies more seriously as a life project."
Miss Lockwood stated further,
that since some of the best organ
students at present are women, be-
fore long women musicians, par-
ticularly organists, will be just as
common as men.
