DR. MARY WALKER

Her quaint figure in a Prince Albert or a cutaway coat and in men’s trousers has for many years been one of the sights of Washington. She expects to be stared at as she makes her way serenely through congressional corridors or about the street She is a suffragist, of course, and Is perfectly at home after she has laid her silk tile on a congressman’s desk and has begun to argue the cause. A special act of congress gave her permission to wear trousers.
