S., to Talk Wisely i By MAXINE BUREN Statesmai- Woman's Editor There's a good deal of flurry in many homes in this area, for there are to be a surprising number of persons from here going to Europe ?nd other far away lands. Many folks are pretty good about looking up the history and background of the countries to which they are going, but there is another important aspect of drumming up to get the most enjoyment out of a trip. This important detail to remem ber is' to bone up on the history of your own country as well as those on your itinerary. A good thing to remember, the experts tell us, in traveling to a foreign couniry is (thai once you get off American soil, you are the foreigner. No more possessiveness when it comes to living. You don't Know the language, you are unfamiliar with the customs, and mav even be pretty inexperienced at handling" money. Ahd remember, all these things are normal in that coun . try, you are the awkward one. RETIRE A LITTLE One of the big faults, they tell us, about the American tour ist is that he, fails to remember he is no longer the big shot, he is just a nobody, just a foreigner. The natives of whatever country is visited are very likely to ask some questions that he may not know how to answer, and this will certainlv lower his stock with new-made friends. it might do well to know the members of the cabinet, the first as well as last names of the more important congressmen and how many we elect in Oregon. It behooves the traveler to have an opinion on some of the important issues of the day. then be ready to back up that opin ion with convincing arguments. One might save embarrassing moments among Europeans, if he knows some reasons for the administration's foreign po licy (whether or not he agrees with it) and he should be able to give a comprehensive quote or two on what it is, and is go ing to be. KNOW PROCEDURES Legislative policies and procedures might be listed on the course of study of things to know about the U.S. Find out a statistics about your country and your state. Know enough dates to be able to talk intelligently, know enough numbers to be able to quote a few, know something of Nato, United Nations, McCarthy, the price of groceries, the status of women and the birthrate of children. In a word, be able to answer the questions of the Europe ans and make them feel that you are intelligent and patriotic, friendly without being patronizing. And, incidentally, one travel expert suggests that the Am erican could do well to cultivate one important virtue that un fortunately too few tourists have humility. Our tourists can do much to cement good feeling between nations, but it can be done only by the American offering un selfish friendship to his hosts, and by making them like him as a person. Few friends can be made through indifference, fewer through patronage, and hone at all through arrogance and conceit. Violet Society at Gaiser Home The Salem African Violet So ciety was entertained at the home of Mrs. Silas Gaiser in Manbrin Gardens Friday night with Mrs. W. A. Bauman the assisting host ess.
