Our Little Woman
By JACK NAKAMOTO
Recently to a short Nisei girl in London. the writer some
what bluntly advised against her Wearing shoes—with ankle
straps! They only made her look more like a “half-pint", giving
the illusion of shorter legs. in defense, she said she preferred
straps. for they eanionflage her thiek ankles. Well, right there
and then, she made a eontradietory remark in that, the straps. on
the contrary. only emphasim- the thickness of her ankles. An
ankle strap is a functional line as it follows the eontour of her
ankle. thus aiding in bringing out the shape or the breadth of
her tarsus. To top it off. the white shade of her shoes made the-mi
more conspicuous. l
By the way, red shoes are the ones most often requested at
shoe dealers. Perhaps that exeellent English movie. “The le
Shoes,” has left a trail of luihlieity that eventually led women
to buy red shoes. To a psyehologist it '8 probably an indication
of a woman ’s subconscious longing for glmnour. adventure. pas
sion or what haw you! At any rate. red shoes are usually
suitable for our little wonnm. so she shouldn’t be bothered with
her lssei parents clubbing her “oshwre”. After all. it’s a known
fact that vanity is sanity in the female.
Baek to the third nrtiele. At the end of the first paragraph.
the editor or a printer erroneously deleted n sentence or twa
which the writer feels should he liroucht up now before it’s all
forgotten. We diseusml eolors with yellow undertone as usually
being ideal for our little woman as it flatten-s her elear ivory
skin. Well. the following.’ senteuees should have also been added:

During these hot muggy «lays. it ’s highly important for our

Deodorants are elassifietl into two groups: one that, prevents
odor and the other that ohm-ks it. The preventative group in

“This is a man's world" . . . this
old can hos been handed down from
'wey before Adorn. Then. along came
Eve. Since that time man has been
fin doubt as w the truth of that
old shying. ‘
Take fishing for example. That
is strictly a man’s sport . . . org
was...orshouldbe...or.l
something like that.
Anybody who plays golf is a “golf
er" . . which is. gramaticallv
speaking. a neutral noun. A golfer
can either be a man or a women.
But. anyone who fishes is a. “fish
erman" . . . and that is definitelv
a masculine noun. You look through
the dictionary and you won't find
any feminine noun such as "fisher
woman" or even a “fisherhng” . . .
because there ain't no such animal.
But. leave it to a woman to contra
dict even Mr. Webster.
Getting lnto this thing a bit deep
er, let‘s take my case. Back in Idaho
my wife insisted she wanted to go
fishing with me. I told her. “Fish
ing's too rough for women". She
flatly refused to be a “fishing wid
ow" and sit at home Sunday after
Sunday. crochetlng, knitting. or just
Dlain sulklng.
We argued back and forth. until
finally. we did what always comes
naturally . . . I decided to take
her fishing with me.
What I should have done was to
take her to a place called “Rattle
snake Gulch" where she'd have to
climb down a almost perpendicular
canyon and run .a. chance of meet
ing a rattler or two. and when she’s
through fishing. sweating through
a one-hour climb back up the cliffs.
That sure would have made her quit
fishing and take up crocheting.
But. like a cluck that I am. I did
what I usually do . . , made a big
boner . . . I'll tell you what I did
in my next installment.
