HER Excellency Lady Chelmsford made an interesting speech at the first anniversary of the Lady Hardinge Medical College, Delhi. She gave some very wholesome advice to the students, told them that "the success and the good name of the College are in their keeping and with it are closely wrapped by the future of the Indian women doctors and the use they can be to their country and community," and concluded with the following stirring appeal:-" I know they will prove worthy of their great task and for the sake of her who founded this college and of those who labour to maintain it they will carry on the good work so rapidly begun and be the voice and the hands and the heart of the founder, carrying to the world what out of the greatness of her heart she desired to give them." This is fine both as advice to the students and as a homage to the illustrious departed whose name the College bears.
