Japan Is Topic
For Meeting of
Soroptimists
Ashland-Changing customs
in Japan were described by
Mrs. Richard Doi when she
spoke for a noon luncheon
meeting of Soroptimist club.
Her embroidered apricot silk
kimono and silver obi and
sandals added a colorful touch
to Mrs. Doi's interesting talk.
Traditions of centuries have
given way to a new philoso
phy .brought to the East dur
ing World War II and women
are finding themselves faced
with new freedoms as well
as new problems, she said.
The speaker demonstrated
some of the time-honored
Japanese usages and gestures
as she explained their signifi
cance. According to Mrs. Doi, aca
demic standards for girls have
been raised and since the six-
year Allied occupation the
equality of sexes has been gen
erally accepted.
"Japan of today Is a com
bination of old tradition and
new ideas," declared the
speaker.
Mrs. Frances Worth, presi
dent of Soroptimist club, in
troduced Mrs. Doi and con
ducted a short business meet
