Following Is the final pub lication of his impressions as an experiment student in Japan. friends with everybody over there, and' it's kinda like a home. They showed me the new bar that they had put in along with all the Christmas decorations. The architecture in that place is subtly fabulous. Today was a study day. I attempted putting together an other paper and ended up writing long overdue letters. I won't even mention the lec ture this morning it was too far above my sleepy head. We went to Kabuki in the even ing. Kabuki is the traditional, colorful, popular theater form in Japan. Kyoto has an an nual round of plays per formed by the big - name Kabuki actors, and we were fortunate enough to attend some of the best plays. Upon returning to the hotel, a friend and I studied late for tomorrow's language exam. I fell I did fine on the lan guage test. A lot of kids said they blew it, but then a lot of kids didn't study very hard, either. Our language class was scheduled for one o'clock, so Mary Ellen and I went down town to do a few Christmas errands first. The class itself was an unproductive bore, which is serious since we're in very important and compli cated part of the book now. Since Mary Ellen already has eight credit hours in Japan ese, I can get more done out of class. WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER By BERNICE STRAWN Oregon Slate University Think! It boats working!

With a toddler in the house, wc don't have to toll you how many trips this saves her. j You can put ibis idea In work In duzens of ways. In (he kitchen, plan for two sets nf salt and pepper shakers, two canisters of flour, two or more paring knives-one on each side of the room. Have a dust cloth tucked away in each room. Put wnsie baskets in several parts of the house. Look about your home for more ways to double up on supplies and cut trips in half. Money Savers! That's what we're looking for after holi day spending, We asked Zcl ma Reigle, our Food Market ing Specialist, for ideas, and ' she has plenty of them. She says you can save annul $5 a month on milk bills by mixing equal parts of re-constituted dry milk and fresh fluid milk. One quart of whole milk costs 2S cents, one quail of dry milk ;illcr adding walcr) will cost about 9 cents.' This estimate is for a fam ily that uses two quarts a 1 day. Of course, some nf you ! who lire more would nave ' more. Ion. There's no sacri - ficc on essential nutrients ei ; ther.

" Foain-lincd jackets, so pop ular now, can be washed or cleaned by the same method you would use for the same fabric without the foam back ing. For instance, if it's ny lon, then wash as you would a nylon garment. If it's wool, better have it dry cleaned, unless it is claimed to be washable. Keep these tips In mind also when washing foam lined garments. Don't overstuff the washer because these materi als are bulky. Foam is likely lo go to pieces if you use chlorine bleach - so don't. Smart Homemakers Tell Us: For a large family, the reg ular size canisters for flour and sugar are loo small. Try the colorful plastic pails with tight covers that are avail able at many stores. They come in a rainbow of colors for decorative kitchen ac cents. Add your own labels. Returns llornbrook - Mrs. Arrion Hums returned home on Sat urday from Long Beach. Calif., where she had spent three weeks with a daughter and her family, Mr. and Mrs. Ron Adams, son Greg, and In fant daughter. Teresa June Mrs. Adams is the former Miss j Uarbara Burns. VISIT RELATIVES Ashland - Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Landers and two children, Linda and Paul, were guests last week at the Bcllview home of Mrs. Landers' cousin. Mr. and Mrs. George II. Jen- , kinson They were returning ' lo Seattle after a holiday va I cation In southern California. We had a morning lecture on Japanese politics. And I thought American politics were bad ... I met a student friend, Yoshio, who is tutor ing me in the ways of Zen be fore lunch. After lunch, I went to the American Culture center, where I made arrange ments for the Christmas show we're putting on with the members of the English Speaking society. I also, de flated the library by five books. I dropped off a paint ing at the Kyoto Art center be fore returning to the hotel for a seminar on Zen and Zen art. There were eight of us-a Zen priest, an artist, two reporters. and four of us students. Most of the afternoon was occupied by my working on a Christmas present for to night's group party. Of course it was a painting. We played games, exchanged gifts, ate dinner, listened to Prof. John son read us a story, and had a religious service. Mr. John son was also Santa Claus, wearing a red suit and beard that his wife had made. Our morning lecture cov ered the past, present, and future of Japan's economic situation. Many English Speaking so ciety students have been as sisting us in our special studies, and they wanted to give us a parly before thev went home for their Christmas vacations. We met at the American Cultural center aud itorium that afternoon for a combination show and party. A Mr. Nakamura and I had been working on the arrange ments, so we were co-masters of ceremonies. I represented the American group and took care of bur half (first half) of the program, while Mr. Naka mura did the second half. Mary Ellen and I had to leave before it was all over. She had gone to her bonscki (del icate sand painting on a black tray) lesson once before alone and had returned a little up set at going through dark streets alone, so I went with her this time. Immediately after bonscki, we went to our final sumi-e lesson. Our round little teach er gave us each a gift. We re turned to a late dinner at the hotel, and the rest of our group sang Christmas carols through the hotel as we ale. We spent the rest of (he eve ning packing and visiting we re leaving the Internation al tomorrow to return to the Honnoji Kaikan. We moved today. It was pretty neurotic. We got all our gluck Into the Honnoji Kai kan. the first hotel that had accommodated us e a rl i e r. There was a language class in our leader's room, and I went over to our favorite little coffee house after that. This Place is called the Rio. We're Guests llornbrook - Week-end guests of Mr. and Mrs. Erne.t Adams were Mr. and Mrs. George Brautlacht. The vis itors are former llornbrook residents who were trans ferred to Dorris. Calif, sever al years ago by the Southern Pacific Railroad company. Mr. Brautlacht i due lo re lire next May. They hope then lo return to llornbrook to make their home. I got up early; found a Christmas stocking with my name on it; arranged an early breakfast for Kay and . me; and got to Kyoto station in time to get the Osaka train. We got to Ashiya and split up there. I got to my Japanese home after Bobby and Papa had left. Christmas in Japan is ob served the same way as New Years is in America, and vice versa for the New Year. There was a fabulous package from my American uehi (literally, house in America), which had been waiting there for a week or so. We opened that and all the packages that I had brought. The family gave me a box of presents for my American family and me. We all had a great time opening presents, ohing and ahing, thanking each other, and, in general, being a family. It was wonderful. Okasan served a spectacular lunch, a huge plate of oysters, my favorite o-sushi (raw fish), and cnampagne. I spent the af ternoon painting sumi-e for the family. Dinner was an en tire chicken apiece, with champagne again. Don Kondo came over after dinner. It's going to be awhile before we see each other again. How ever, he plans to visit Amer ica soon. cab out to the temple she had been researching for the morning service. Daisenln Is a Zen temple, dating about five centuries back into his tory. Our language test in the afternoon was easy. Except for putting together all the research material that I've gathered, I'm academically free We're toward the end of our trip, our year, and our studies. Academic work is nearly im possible, socializing frustrat ing, shopping rampant, and travel preparation looming. Mary Ellen and I went to Shinmonzen Street, Kyoto's most ' rustic and attractive tourist trap, for a rainy after noon of shopping. We went out for a while in the evening too, stopping at the Rio to see quite a few friends gathered. both Japanese and American We prepared a package to send back to America full of gifts, books, clothes, and what have you. This weighed a small ton and was for cutting down airline weight, but I think I'm still going lo be over. The Ashiya Sister City association held a party in Kobe. The students from Ashiya were given invitations, so we went to the dinner and dance. Dick Plass (Experiment leader) was all packed lo go back to Kyoto after the party, and he wanted traveling com pany. I had planned to return the next morning, but it seem ed a better idea to avoid the inconvenience lo the family by leaving at a better time. So we left part way in the danc ing and went to my home where I gathered my things. Saying goodbye again was even harder. Mary Ellen and I took a The day was dead in leisurely sort of way. I man aged to go two kilograms over maximum airline weight Looks like I will wear all my clothes on the plane back New Year's Eve started at five with a before-dinner get-to gether with the Johnsons. Most of us were in Kyoto, and attendance to this and the following gatherings turned out to be sporadically spon taneous. After dinner we went up to Mary Ellen's room, decorated and lighted, for an hour or so This was followed by a gen eral group drift over to the Rio. We stayed there for while, ending up in bunches that dispersed through the city on their separate ways to shrines. I was in the largest group which first taxied to Gion shrine. We arrived amid the swarming crowds, avoid ed all the peddlers, went up a ro.w of concession stands, and made the scene. At Gion a fire is made from rubbing wood, symbolic of a gift from the Gods, and the masses come to transport the flame home on a rope every New Year's Eve. In the glare of the television lights stood three stone lanterns, attended by priests who kept the fires going. People by the hundreds. maybe thousands, were mill ing around giving offerings, gathering flame, pushing, talking, and taking pictures. As we left, I saw a sign on one of the rustic little build ings around the main shrine that said, "We Honor Diner's Club credit cards." We left. We got to Chion just at mid night. This place's fame comes from its fantastically huge bell which is rung a hundred or so times every year. Ring ing isn't so simple, however. It takes a couple dozen men to propel a huge timber hung next lo tne ten meter high bell. It was freezing, but we walked back to the hotel any way. Again, the group gather ed in the same room. Our New Year was set for two, since we'd had a pretty frantic midnight. At two, the "DO IT MYSELF? not when NU-WAY'S PROFESSIONAL cleaning is so near!
