...atmosphere, just add that little aesthetic flavor." Now, at $10 an hour, some affluent gentry of Norman, Okla., are renting the longhairs of the counterculture to decorate their parties.

During the time we rented from him over the Billings and Stover store, we thought that he'd go mad with us hairy freaks running all over the building. But he remained as pleasant as he could, and when a broken pipe in the wall doused our office, he gave...
