out some nen mihe most uninteresting places...and the worst of places too

ig -''I to’ J love tne way the boys on the sugar beet projects and road camps

I love the gentleness and the kindness of Niseis toward the Issei
■ be an generation,
despite the censure and the criticism heaped upon
iyth’„ them

over ti’ roughest, of them... .perhaps not the best way to bring up children,
: beliin out they certainly look the happiest bunch of toddlers on this side o’

Hove the way Niseis are responding to events.. .keeping a sane and
balanced outlook even though they know that they are 1'behind the

"p,

I love the new kind of laughter on the lips of Nisei girls... they
hea:; have caught a vivacity and a depth of understanding... .they laugh
lor the sheer sake of laughing.. .and hide the bleakness where none
,sy on may
see
fl ^'v
I love the straight “leading with one’s chin”, the definiteness of
he courage of convictions, which makes some Niseis go or
wer bumping against stone walls, forever fighting against wrong,
Aspite censure
And I love that filial quality- so inherent in the hearts of the Niseis
■■■at times it’s a drag around their necks...but there’s something
sect in the way- which Niseis worry about the old folks they
IS
or are leaving behind
