Participation in Government
From My.
By Shirley •
Whoever was the inventor of .panty-
hose' for women deserves the praise and
gratitude of the entire female populat-
, ion. For nrie, just one gal who has been
liberated from the tugging and pulling'
of pesky garters, pa ose is the nearest
thing to solid comfo that I have ever
worn.
I was a late starter as far as panty-
hose is concerned. Somehow or other
I felt that pantyhose was not for me but
rather for younger girls. My 12-year old
is daughter has been wearing them for a
year or so now and advocated them
strongly to me. ' But I kept telling her
that pantyhose for' a woman of my age -
and my weight - was just' out of the
question.
Then one day 'I was caught up in the
spirit of adventure. I bought a pair of
the "one size fits all" variety with the
thought that if they 'didn't turn out' to
be right for me, my daughter could
probably make use of them.
What a day! At last I had some
inkling how a prisoner of . war must
feel when he is released from the bond-
age of a cell and allowed to run free
again. It was like rolling back ,the
calendar by 25 years to when I was
just a kid and nude-heel seamless stock-
ings weren't a sign of being properly
dressed.
I was interested to read this week
that the folks who are concerned about
highway safety are really sold on panty-
hose It is true. There is proof that a
woman'driver wearing pantyhose is
a much safer driver than a lady driver
who is wearing the conventional girdle
and stockings.
First and foremost, a girdle can be
uncomfortable. The restraints of the
tough elastic which holds in the 'bumps
I The visit by Prime Minister Trudeau
last weekend to areas in Southwestern
Ontario indicated once more his con-
cern that all of us participate to a
greater degree in discussing the busi-
ness of Canada.
The visits were further evidence of
the importance he attaches to bringing
the people closer to government and
giving them an opportunity of becom-
ing more interested and involved in pub-
lic issues.
The trip was devoid of that formal
'hands off' atmosphere which in the
past has marked similar excursions of
heads of state from the capital. From
his .first appearance in Guelph where
he talked with youth of that city about
their problems, on to Hanover where in
a series of questions and answers he de-
bated area .concerns and ' finally at
Strathroy where he shared the pleasures
of a Sunday afternoon picnic he sought
to involve people, to indicate to them
„bow they and government are 'related.
When people are encouraged to think
about their own•prohlems in relation to
snow me a teacher in June, and I'll A
show you' a character with a crumpled
shirt, a wrinkled brow, and .a desperate
look in his eyes.
His spirit is treading the lush green
of the golf course. His inward eye is
contemplating the dark swirl of water
under a log in a trout stream. And
his Winter-fat, pudgy body is there in
the classroom, which is more like a
steam bath. Room temperature, 90 de-
grees.
Before him loll about 30 students,
eyes. glazed, minds turned to something
important, like ,a swim, or a joyride, or
just lying in the sun.
Chief difference between them is that
the kids are- arrayed in their cpolest,
while he, adhering to some ancient and
ridiculous tradition, quietly steams in
his swaddling of 'shirt and tie, jacket
and trousers.
The students are there only because
they have to stick around to write last-
hope tests, and find out whether they've
been promoted Lor have to write the
"finals." The teacher is there only
because somebody, in hit infinite wis-
dom, has decreed that school will con-
tinue until kcertain day in June.
, It's not exactly what we in the so-
'called profession's jargon call lea good
learning Situation."
Someday, someone with some common
sense is going to close the schools on
the first day of June, and Open them on
the first day of August. June is a month
for joy in Canada, not Imprisonnient in
a sauna bath. The days are long, the
mosquitoes haven't really found the range,
and the world is green arid glorious.
By August, the gun has lost some of
its blast, the days are shorter and that
• first wilq lust for the lushness &summer
has abated. School ,,ould run from '7 a.m.
national issues; when they realize the
variety and complexity of problems in
all the communities across 'anada they
can better appreciate the need for dia-
logue, the need for government to reach
a concensus. In government, as in the
case of a family where each can4 t have
his Or her own way, compnimise solu-
tions must be sought.
All this search for information and
encouragement of participation of
course doesn't change the fact that in
the final analysis the government has
the responsibility of making -the deci-
siops.
The decisions that are made, howev-
er, will more truly reflect the needs of
all Canadians 'as a result of visits such
as Mr. Trudeau EaS just concluded. He
will be more appreciative of our prob-
lems and in turn we will be more aware
of the difficulty that exisits in solving
It's an _entirely new approach but
one which has in it the advantages of a
greater understanding of public issues
and of government decisions reflecting
a more broadly based assessment.

J. Keller —
and bulges sometimes causes milady to
squirm uneasily. Such discomfort can
take her mind off her driving and since
even momentary inattention to driving
can 'cause nasty accidents,,a 'girdle can
actually become a highway murderer.
Besides this, tests have shown that
when garters are holding stockings
tightly in place, the natural reaction , is
for the lady to resist. Therefore, she
stretches her leg out, perhaps unknow-
ingly, so that she' is fighting the un-
happy pull of her garters.
It isn't' too serious when a gal' is
juSt sitting knitting socks. But when she
gets behind the wheel and begins to push
down automatically against the floor-
boards, she is pumping gas through the
motor and the, car is travelling .much
faster than is really intended.
That sounds reasonable doesn't it?
For safer women drivers, the, key seems
to be to have the ladies trade in their
girdles and stockings for pantyhose which
are just like a second skin and justs,as,
comfortable.
.Trouble is, that second skin is just
as revealling as the first skin - or, to
put it 'more bluntly, a gal can't hide her
figure flaws in a pair of pantyhose. But
who really cares about that these days?
When the trend is to go without a b^ras'-
siere, and half your clothes, who is going
to worry about a roll or two that should-
n't be but is.
So I'm all for pantyhose and I'm
leading the round of applause for the
person responsible for the introduction
of these freedom undies.
If you haven't tried them, girls, you
should. , If you do wear them you are
serving the, motoring public as conscient-
iously as it is possible to do.
to 1 p.m., and there'd still be a decent
chunit of a summer,. day to be enjoyed. •
It's not only the heat that makes
June rough for teachers. It's the last-
Minute panic. There are 64 memos.
from the office, telling you to be in
three places and doing three different
things, at the same time. Or so it seems.'
There are the final exams to set,
supervise and mark. There are Marks to.
be mustered that would murder a mathem-
atician, and written down in sit different
places. There are new books to be
ordered, and old lsOoks (about 10,000 in my
case) to be sorted and counted and Stored.
And everything is to a ddadline that
always seems to be yesterday.
But who can complain? There is the
deep satisfaction of knowing that Joe
ugh has passed and somebody else will
-Stave to teach him next, year, that Naughty
Nancy, she of the cocky walk and the
talky talk, has'ner ring, and will be driv-
ing nobody crazy next year except the
poor simpleton who gave it to her. -
There is the sincere satisfaction of
knowing that some of your graduating
students will probably contribute a lot
" more to the world than Arti have, -as
doctors, nurses, teachers, engineers.
There is a special touch of sadness
when the kids in the two-year course,
who. are finished with eduCation; probably
forever, inarticulately tell you they have
enjoyed their year with you. Their future
is not in pastel shades. They seem. so
young and vulnerable. You have a great
wish that at least they'll find happiness,
if not affluence. •
Anti finally, there 'are two glorious
months ahead in which you don't have
to leap to your feet and scuttle some-
where like Pavlov's rats, every time a
'bell rings. I think I'll stick it for another
year.
