LONDON-- John :Goodenday, a bashful man who made »millions beautifying women's 'legs, 'died: re- eently. i Goodenday brought "fully fa- shioned"' form-fitting -sto¢kings "to Britain and clad*the legs»of dutth- esses and shopgirls, and -even a queen. Goodenday, onee.a ten-shilling-a- week office boy, came from the north of England to London dur- ing the depression to seek his for- tune. One of his first jobs was' to sup- ervise the closing of an ailing hos- iery factory. Instead he built it up, putting shape into the silky cylin- ders women then wore. When he died he had seven fac- tories working to meet the de- mands o{ millions of ;wwomen. The NEW 'YORK .-- For months :now }}the tiny Country of 'the 'Million. Elephants 'has been consistently «in the news: War, East-West struggle, cease - fire negotiations, 'confer- ences. But 'behind the headlines, what is 'life 'like in Laos, 'what :is 'the role of -women? Samlith Ratsaphong says: '"*Wo- men are 'very free. 'They -enjoy democratic rights as :in "Western countries. They can «vote .at 21; they can own property.'Some \are teachers, a few are doctors."' Ratsaphong, 'first «secretary of the »permanent "mission«of 'the 'Lao- tion delegation to the "United "Na- tions, goes on: ""Wehave.one lady in the legislature, "Khampheng Boupha."' What about a woman in the cab- inet? "Not yet," says Ratsaphong, and then adds with an air:of complete disbelief in what he's saying, "'but it's possible."' Some women work in offices, "but only modern: women, and not too many of them,' "he explains. "Even if they do office work, they live with their families. They can Ontario's Transport Minister Leslie Rowntree helps Laurie McFall cut out her new safety game while Kerry Esling and Ross Pugsley of Etobicoke's Kipling Grove School take a lesson. The safety game is designed to entertain the children while reminding them of the practical rules for traffie safety. For the thirteenth consecutive year the Transport Department and the Department of 'Education will distribute one million of these summer safety reminders to Ontario's school children. A portion of the safety game is shown at left. side."' Practically 'everyone in Laos marries, usually bewteen 'the ages of 18 and 25, and has about five children. Ratsaphong and his wife are no exception. They have five children, all under ten years, who live with them in an apart- ment next door to the mission's office building. Laotions have great respect for age and family, he says, and great affection for children. '"'We have no boarding schools. We have no de- linquency. Mothers stay home and take care of the children." Mothers also make all the fam- ily's clothing, from growing the cotton to weaving it into cloth. looms. Although there are many old sayings to the-effect women should sleep with heads lower 'than their husbands «and should: not eat: until he thas started on 'his 'rice, Lao- tians deny "this: means "women are considered inferior especially not to-day. It is only to remind them they should be agreeable and loving. If wives become angry -- and it's conceded they do on occasion --husbands are supposed to re- main calm_and try to pacify them. This act of connubial courtesy is called picturesquely: "Stroking the heart with a hand dipped in cool water."' |scholarship awarded by the Mont real chapter of the National Sec- retaries Association. LONDON, Ont. -- The municipal affairs minister will be asked by the 'London-Middlesex emergency measures committee to investigate the need for legislation protecting doctors doing emergency work. The committee was told by Dr. D. A. Hutchinson, London medical officer of health, that doctors in the area are concerned that treatment given under emergency conditions might lead to malpractice suits against them in court. Where a team of doctors is re= quired to treat a great number of patients under the stress of an emergency, there is not time for When their other household chores} MONTREAL -- Brenda Tracy, a are done, the slender, fine-featured |student at La Congregation de No- Laotion women can usually be!tre Dame secretarial school, has never live alone, as .women do here.

ETON, England "Resolved: That the average British working mman receives a fair day's pay for a fair day's work," This motion was put forward at the Eton Sunday Night Debating Society by Alexander Macmilian, 17-year-old grandson of the prime minister.
