Womens Activities FRESNO BEE Monday, July 6, 1964 11-A 'Nothing' Vacation Is Recommended By Bette Casperian How about a vacation of just not doing anything at all? Join the select few who refuse to pack and rush about frenetically from place to place, getting all cross and overheated and returning to work more tired than before the vacation. There are two fine ways for going about a Nothing vacation, both highly recommended as soothing of mind, spirit and body. The first is for the penniless. You simply stay at home and sit quietly, in your garden if the weather is fine, or in an easy chair inside if it is inclement. Nothing things to do outside include looking at patterns of shadows made by leaves at different hours of the day, watching grass grow (but never, never cutting it), quietly drinking cool drinks, treating your anatomy to the sensual pleasures of an alternating exposure to sun and shade and sort of ruminating about things, but not things that are too puzzling.

One summer I tried thinking about "Whence come we? What are we? Whither go we?" This is not recommended. It was exhausting. On days which prove too hot or too cold for the outdoor approach, slip into a cumfy old robe and curl up in a soft old chair inside. Languish a little. Reading is permissable, but only if the book is entertaining and has a happy ending.

No deep stuff. Looking at old magazines is another way to while away the happy hours. And munching on things, if other persons can be wheedled into bringing them to you on trays. Resist all activity steadfastly to reap the greatest benefit from your Nothing vacation. The proper attitude to assume is that of a person recovering from a long illness 50 weeks of work.

If there is a little money in the kitty, there is a second Nothing vacation that is fun. Check into a hotel or motel, get into lounging clothes and, well, lounge. you have need of food or drink, ring for room service. The only permissable activities are reading, looking at the television, counting the flowers on the wallpaper, soaking in the tub. This vacation, in which two days are guaranteed to rest you more than two weeks of the run about type, works better than the at home kind for those persons who find it difficult to do Nothing.

At home there too often are reminders of things crying out to be done. Leaky faucets and soiled woodwork have a way of interfering with serene relaxation. But in a strange place, away from it all, distractions are removed. There is Nothing to do. Unnecessary conversation should be avoided in both forms of the "retreat from it all" vacation.

Telephones should be uprooted, their nasty little wires ripped ruthlessly from the wall. Recalling a vacation, or dreaming of the such next, will you keep your of family crisis sanity on those bad days and noise, noise, noise of radio and office disasters, of hurry hurry and blaring horn, of do not telephone and of voices asking you to do things you want to do. (The bonus benefit of the are so darn Nothing vacation you glad to get back to all those wanted so much to get from.) things you away Fresnans attending the Phi Mu Fraternity convention which began Friday in Grand Hotel, Mackinac Island, are Lonna Henkel, Susan Hunter and Mrs. Earl Whitfield.

Most of the women wore short shifts, slit with reckless abondon at the sides, exercise suits, tights, jeans or regular street dresses.

Men wore tight pants, cotton shirts and tennis shoes. The men in business suits and neckties looked quite dressy among the dancers. The clothes may be dressier in the posh uptown night spots but one of Chubby Checker's assistants, when asked if he thought discotheque dresses would catch on in the fall season replied: "The fashion industry has missed the boat. The newest dance craze now is the Shhhh dance. In this dance the man grabs his partner, rushes her out on the dance floor and then they just stand there gazing into each other's eyes, not moving and not saying a word." This was an appealing young and for tired twisters was still going strong with version of the twist and they are most often called, idea right then for the not so but the midnight crowd each and every strenuous not a disc or disco dress, as in sight.
