The beauty of this town is
that you never know what
to expect on the social cir
cult. Here are two recent ex-
amples of unexpected parties!
Little did I dream that I
would ever dress up like a
geisha girl, bow and scrape
to every male present and
dine sumptuously on sashiml.

sitting on the floor in Japa-
neses tea house fashion right
here in Washington.
One thing is certain. If the
American male wants ascend
ancy over the American
female. he should persuade
her to greet him in geisha
fashion. / can't tell you how
much more important a man
looks, girls. when you bow
all the way to the floor before
him instead of shaking his
hand!
The amusing tea party took
place at Lower Ranleigh, the
Mclean (Va.) home of World
Bank official Russell Dorr
and his attractive wife, Ruth.
They returned last fall from a
four-month visit in Japan

which was purchased at a
Japanese store here. All the
guests who didn't have Orien-
tai costumes to wear were
provided with them by the
hostess.
The women were asked to
come ahead Of their husbands
or escorts so as to be ready to
greet them in geisha fashion
when they entered. Although
bowling to the floor struck the
women as hilarious, it seemed
to me that the men took it in
their stride-as their Just
deserts. you might say.
Present at the delightful to-
do were Tyler Wood. until

The biggest difference was
that the aforem e ntioned
"geisha girls were far more
intent upon eating the deiec-

amusing their lordships.
But they did typical geisha
dances with the men-the coal
miners dance and the base
ball dance, where you go
through the motions of dig
ging and pitchir G, etc.
Funniest game played was a
5umpsy daisy one. only they
don't call it that. Most fas-
cinating was pouring saki into
full cup without making it
spill over. Women being more
careful than men. it is usually
the man who spills it and has
to bottoms up. In Japan,
cabinet ministers and top brass
play these games.
All this capering took place

Is that this was the quickest,

One Of the nice things about
writing country pieces Is that
people are so kind and helpful.
People have all kinds Of
ideas, and tell you about them.
They let you know about new
things that might help you on
the farm.
OF course. it would be a lot
nicer If they would come on
out to the country and pitch
in. 1 would like that. because
/ could sit on the porch and
look out and see the garden
getting hoed. the pastures
clipped. and the back field
plowed.
Things would get done a lot
quicker. too. because then my
wife would have a little help
with the hoeing and it wouldn't
take her 50 long with the gar
den.

come to my assistance. why
