greater for her work. She is do
ing laboratory work with rats,

her people, who size knows are
undernouriShed.
She spoke in very charming
manner, with a fine command of
the English language, telling of
the customs of hef people, their
house keeping, dress, art and in
most cases, lack of education. She
also spoke of he: family, her
husband, and young son. Dressed
IN her native costume, the sari,
she explained its many advant-
ages, and displayed one of pure
silk, which Gayle Williams mod
eled. Mrs. Devades also drew
an intricate example of Indian
art on the black board. Her one
objection to life in this country
was that one never finds time
to relax. She very graciously an
SWered numerous questions and
said she enjoyed meeting with
groups of women as it increased
a racial understanding.
