Mrs. Davies learned about Wie iers when she laid down her bag on a round counter-high contrap- tion in a store. The proprietor snatched it off before the plastic could curl, stirred up the fire be-: neath the ashes into a cherry glow, and bowing deeply, handed back the bag. Since that ocular demon- stration of what lay beneath an innocent appearing top layer of sand, Mrs. Davies now holds her hands over any circular object to determine the temperature. Clothing and more clothing, she says, is necessary in Japan in the winter, time. Long winter woollies, heavy stockings, and extra jackets are the norm. Living in Japan would add up gear classifies as sacrilege. At the entrance to each Japanese ! home there is an ante-room where visitors remove their shoes, place them on a ledge, and substitute for them the scuffs which a thought- ful hostess has placed in readiness. Occasional visitors sometimes find it hard to fit scuffs to their own feet, as Japanese people, small in proportion to people in the United States, have tiny feet. A visitor is apt to go shuffling into the main living room in size three scuffs, dragging her heels. Japanese pecple, Mrs. Davies says, are inured to the cold and the dampness. Arrayed in shorts, they play tennis all’ winter long, rolling up the grass mats from the clay courts in sunshiny weather, pro- tecting them when it rains.

Traffic Is Wild The entire population, it seemed |to Mrs. Davies was constantly on | the move. Tokyo is a city of over nine million, and none of the resi- dents stay at home if it is possible to go somewhere. Trains, running every few min- utes, are constantly crowded. Chil- ! dren use the trains to get to school, house-wives to do their shopping, tourists to see the. sights. Bieycles swarm in the narrow streets,and motorcycles go popping along. For a few yen, a taxi will take you wherever you want to go, with little regard for pedestrians. National shrines such as the an- cient palace at Kyoto, attract thousands of sightseerers.

The Domestic Scene { Alice's husband, Edward L. Stan- ley, with a firm of research and commercial chemists which has con- nections in ‘Asia, travels frequently to Hong-Kong, Korea, and other story-book ports, for Rhom-Haas. The two boys, Jonathan,13, and Bevan, 7%, attend the American School, going each day by" train. Mrs. Stanley teaches English two days a week at the university, to take up the slack of her spare time. Japanese servants keep the household running. smoothly. The chef takes pride in turning out what he considers American cookery. For years he worked for Horn and Hardart before returning to Japan. The serving of tea is a prelude to all transactions and to all hos- | pitality. Brightly colored green tea is the ceremonial type, but it is straw colored liquid which greets the customer in the gift shop or the business house. Block-Printing Mr. Edwards’ chemist connections gained entrance for Mrs. Davies to $ 2.173. | | a factory which block-prints lovely silks. Visitors are not welcome to | most factories in Japan. In the forty operations are terns, and ‘these are all done pains- takingly by hand. : The final step is to wash the bolt of silk in the river and dry it on the bank. : Silk worm culture is carried out mainly in farm homes, where the silk is wound off after the worms have been killed. - The grey-goods, colorless silk, is ‘woven in the fac- tories, and block printing done on the neutral background.

In the native homes, little furniture. The Japanese sit and work on the highly polished floors, warming their chilled fingers at charcoal braziers, eating from low tables with the aid of chop- sticks. Mrs: Davies found it d'fficult to get used to chopsticks, and to some types of native food, but has a warm word to say in praise of morsels of As for sleeping on a quilt on the floor with a wooden headrest, Mrs. Davies is grateful that her daughter had her own furniture with her, and could provide her with the com- forts of home. Mrs. Davies bought some colored slides while in Japan and made a collection of pamphlets. The cere- monial plays given by Japanese actors are so dissimilar to theatre art in this country, that Mrs. Davies Some of her pictures show leading char- acters arrayed in fantastic costume and equally fantastic make-up. The imminent marriage in April of the Crown Prince to a commoner, has resulted in a rash of engage- ments" and of weddings planned for April; to: coincide with. one of the most popular events ever known in Japan, “where heretofore only five or six. families. were considered eligible for princely selection when planning a marriage. Home From Japan Just before Mrs.” Davies started back by plane, by way of Honolulu, huge strawberries came in season, berries” so large that seven filled a ‘large saucer. Truck farmers cover: them each night to prevent freezing, uncover them to the sun- shine” as soon as the temperature rises in mid-morning. When Mrs. Davies flew to Japan, she travelled by way of Seattle and the Aleutian Islands, losing a day en route. ‘Her calendar said Mon- day - when she ' reached Tokyo, whereas it was Tuesday in Japan. On ‘the ‘way back, she took the long way round, dropping down" by plane - to Honolulu, and spending | four days in what used to be called the Sandwich Islands, before taking a plane again for Los Angeles. While in that city, .she renewed acquaintance with Mr. and Mrs. George Fry, who went to’ California on a visit a year ago, fell in love with the environs of Los Angeles, and remained there. Mrs. Davies and Mrs. Fry were active together in Girl Scouts for many years. ‘Abandoning plane travel, Mrs. Davies routed herself by train through Denver, to see her nephew, Donald Williams. Mrs. Davies says she wouldn't have missed the tri J va for the world, but Dallas looks g er, and she is enjoying her et spring. Asked if she would show her slides and pictures, to share her enjoyment with armchair travellers, she said she ‘would do so with pleasure.’ : Too: ‘much foresight. causes many a man to worry a great deal about things that never happen. there is |, to attend the funeral of her grand- Boy Scout NEWS Mothers of Explorer Post and Scout Troop 232, St. Therese’s Church, will hold a bake sale in the church auditorium following masses on Palm Sunday.
