A woman shows the cloth she has bought to make her wedding dress to a friend.
The text under the image:
Today, women are not only able to participate in labor like men, but they have also gained economic independence and can arrange their marriages according to their own wishes. This is the infinite happiness and protection that the great Constitution and the Marriage Law have brought to women.
The picture shows a young girl returning from the market town with new clothing material for her wedding, and her companion is praising her for her happiness.
今天的婦女不僅能夠同男子一樣去參加勞動,也取得了在經濟上的獨立地位,婚姻大事也同樣能夠隨自己的心願去辦理。這是偉大的憲法和婚姻法給婦女帶來的無限幸福和保障。
畫面上是一個年輕的姑娘,從集鎮上回來,帶來了她出嫁的新衣料,她的女伴正爲她的幸福而讚美。
