An Independent Weekly Organ Published as a Medium of

By F. A.M.
Treading A Narrow Road
.
A member of the Toronto Board of Control has given
an indication to the Nisei in the east of how careful they
need to be, if resettlement is to be successfully carried out.
He raised the complaint that a group of young men.
brought to the city by one firm, left their jobs after a little
while to take other work. He added that the Nisei were
given special privileges by Selective Service to change
their jobs whenever they want.
This latter statement, of course, is quite untrue for se
lective service regulations apply to the Nisei just as to any• one else. The only difference arises from the fact that race
prejudice limits their employment opportunities, and the
administration of the regulations has to be more flexible
in order to place the m as suitably as possible.
These columns have noted previously that for their
own good the Nisei must be conscious of their obligations
owed to employers. Too much stress cannot be laid upon
this, as the attitude of the Toronto official clearly shows.
At the same time, in spite of what he says, it would be a
grave mistake for the Nisei to accept without protest any
conditions of work and wages, and thus lay themselves
open to the charge of “cheap, imported labour.” In at least
two reported instances. Nisei resettlers have been the inno
cent victims of feeling between the employer and his regu
lar employees, who were dissatisfied with their low wages
and who felt that the Nisei we *e being brought in to hold
the wage level down.
Relations with both employers and fellow workers must
be continually watched by alert. Nisei, if they are to ajust
themselves happily and successfully to their n e w sur
roundings. It is a staight and narrow road which they must
tread, but the goal for which they are striving is surely
worth a supreme effort.
No Military Necessity Here
Responsible public opinion has always understood that,
the enforced removal of all persons of Japanese origin
from Pacific Coast defence zones early last year was based
upon a strict military necessity. Surely no other factor
could be urgent enough in a democratic state to warrant
in any way a measure as drastic and extreme as the indis
criminate expulsion of 22,000 people from long-estab
lished homes and livelihood.
But much of the comment heard currently on the ques
tion of what is to be done after the war to reach a solu
tion to the new problems resulting from evacuation has
no relation to military necessity whatever. So much is a
product, either of intolerant minds inflamed by an inter
national situation which all of us would have paid dearly
Io prevent, or of minds deeply ingrained with a prejudice
which reaches back fifty years. In either case, they come
as a disappointing travesty of our Canadian democracy.
Unhappily typical,' for instance is the attitude, of the
Nelson Board of Trade, which has recently urged the re
moval of evacuee settlements from the Kootenav districts
after the war, and, if possible, deportation of all persons of
'Japanese origin, citizen and alien alike. Over-riding the
concern of those disturbed by such a fa s cis t-like attack
upon the rights of natural-born Canadian citizens, some
members declared that they themselves needed to take
action “to set them out" orthat “nothing will be done."
An illuminating comment has also been made, by Mr.
Tom Reid, M.P., who told New Westminster Rotarians
that “a stronger stand will have to be taken'' on the Jap
anese question. He fancied that a movement was already on
foot to have the evacuees return to their homes. And he
implied that a strong organized movement would have to
be undertaken by anti-Japanese interests if present bar
riers against the Japanese Canadians are to be maintained
after the war.
■ We have always believedthat vested economic and poli
tical groups were responsible for much of the agitation
which stirred up the prejudice against those of Japanese
origin on the Coast. Mr. Reid's remarks imply an appeal
to those interests to be on the alert to safeguard their own
position in the matter.
Future historians, recording these ev ents. will find abun
dant evidence of the fact that “military necessity” alone
was not responsible for eva-cuation. Nor will they find it
easv. in the total absence now or in the future, of any mili
tary factor, to reconcile this narrow attitude of certain in
dividuals and groups of Canadians with the declared prin
ciples for which the United Nations are now so victoriously
fighting abroad.
“Brother! It?s gonna be mighty
hot today!” was Joe’s comment as
the truckful of shovel gangers
rumbled down to work. Yeah, Wil
lie agreed, it sure was gonna be hot
ail right. There wasn’t a" single
cloud in the light sky, all that could
be seen was a blazing ball high in
the intense hard blueness. The
ground’was hot and parched and
the dust swirled high and mighty
in they wake of. the roaring truck.
All this in mid-July meant a
dusty and sweaty eight hours. Es
pecially working with a shovel on
the dump too. With six trucks tak
ing turns in bringing loads of soil
from the gas shovel for filling the
top of the new cut, it was backaching and monotonous work.
But Willie had a system. You
learn before long that counting
the hours make dinner and supper
twice as far away, no, the trick
was to work automatically and not
think about the work or anything
else. Sure, it works and before you
know it the truck’s here to cart
you back to camp again for a meal
and a nice let up. Try it sometime.
But here’s Yoshi’s truck coming
up and here goes for the first load
of the day. Old George steps out
to signal with motions of his sho
vel, adroit manoeuvering by Yoshi
. . .“Okay!”. . . brooomph! and
swoposh . . . the load is spread and
ready to level out. The first few
minutes are spent in silent labour

spots and levelling to the height

Konishi is - feverishly puttering
away as usual. Where the heck
does he get that energy anyhow,
Willie wonders. Another truck, Al
fie’s red General Motors comes
roaring up and everybody eases up.

people they’d wave and smile,
thinks Willie.
“Goddarn it, why the heck do
they have to come through so fast
for? Gosh, you can’t breathe.”
Everybody was ducking and hiding
his face from the swirling dust.

Some time ago there appeared
in your columns a short verse re
calling the stout work performed
by the baggage crew in helping
so many people move from the
Hastings Park Clearing Station.
Since there is an off-season in
beet work and a long winter idle
period, we residents of the Coaldale
district have tried to obtain casual
work on farms in our neighbour
hood, because most of us do not
wish to, go to cannery work that
would take us so far away from
home.
To maintain a reasonable stan
dard of wages in our area, we
decided that the minimum rate
that we wquld accept would be
40c per hour, or §4.00 a day.
Recently however, an individual
who is a prominent member of his
community came from an outside
district to ours, and proceeded to
break these standards in two ways.
He -worked for $3.00 a day, for ove
ten hours.
We, of Coaldale, would like to
suggest to him that a.citizen such
as he, who is looked upon as a
leader, should at least think of the
other people who are trying to
maintain adequate standards for
themselves. If he wishes to work
under lower conditions, we suggest
that he take employment in some
other dictrict, where there is no
agreed rule such as ours.
M.YK.
COALDALE, Alta.
The verse recalled to me mem
ories of vivid scenes from last
year and resulted in the following
effort of my own.
Five and twenty young men
Working as a team,
Impossible to beat them
So full of pep and steam.
It’s true they came very early.
It’s true they worked very late.
But what did they expect
For this was their fate.
It was hurry here and hurry there.
The baggage must move on
To Slocan’s. waiting thousands
In empty tents and lots.
How well I remember
W’hen the sun was blazing hot,
How the boys would curse and
grumble
At the cause of their weary lot.
Far into the night they worked
With many a curse and song,
Only to start another day
With the smile of a September
morn.
I shan’t forget the night
When the lights were far from,
bright,
And Cossy’s voice we heard among
the din,
“One more bag, box and kori we
must get in.”
All their names I cannot re
member,
But their faces I’ll always see
As we pass along life’s troubled
ways
To the new day we hope to see.

Kaslo, B. C.
An Independent Weekly Organ Published as a Medium of

By F. A.M.
Treading A Narrow Road
.
A member of the Toronto Board of Control has given
an indication to the Nisei in the east of how careful they
need to be, if resettlement is to be successfully carried out.
He raised the complaint that a group of young men.
brought to the city by one firm, left their jobs after a little
while to take other work. He added that the Nisei were
given special privileges by Selective Service to change
their jobs whenever they want.
This latter statement, of course, is quite untrue for se
lective service regulations apply to the Nisei just as to any• one else. The only difference arises from the fact that race
prejudice limits their employment opportunities, and the
administration of the regulations has to be more flexible
in order to place the m as suitably as possible.
These columns have noted previously that for their
own good the Nisei must be conscious of their obligations
owed to employers. Too much stress cannot be laid upon
this, as the attitude of the Toronto official clearly shows.
At the same time, in spite of what he says, it would be a
grave mistake for the Nisei to accept without protest any
conditions of work and wages, and thus lay themselves
open to the charge of “cheap, imported labour.” In at least
two reported instances. Nisei resettlers have been the inno
cent victims of feeling between the employer and his regu
lar employees, who were dissatisfied with their low wages
and who felt that the Nisei we *e being brought in to hold
the wage level down.
Relations with both employers and fellow workers must
be continually watched by alert. Nisei, if they are to ajust
themselves happily and successfully to their n e w sur
roundings. It is a staight and narrow road which they must
tread, but the goal for which they are striving is surely
worth a supreme effort.
No Military Necessity Here
Responsible public opinion has always understood that,
the enforced removal of all persons of Japanese origin
from Pacific Coast defence zones early last year was based
upon a strict military necessity. Surely no other factor
could be urgent enough in a democratic state to warrant
in any way a measure as drastic and extreme as the indis
criminate expulsion of 22,000 people from long-estab
lished homes and livelihood.
But much of the comment heard currently on the ques
tion of what is to be done after the war to reach a solu
tion to the new problems resulting from evacuation has
no relation to military necessity whatever. So much is a
product, either of intolerant minds inflamed by an inter
national situation which all of us would have paid dearly
Io prevent, or of minds deeply ingrained with a prejudice
which reaches back fifty years. In either case, they come
as a disappointing travesty of our Canadian democracy.
Unhappily typical,' for instance is the attitude, of the
Nelson Board of Trade, which has recently urged the re
moval of evacuee settlements from the Kootenav districts
after the war, and, if possible, deportation of all persons of
'Japanese origin, citizen and alien alike. Over-riding the

THE NEW CANADIAN
Bicycle Trip to Quebec
From coast to roast
Historic Canada--Past and Future • NISEI VOICES
(The following excerpts are.
taken from a letter from a Nisei
resident of Montreal, who contri
bated extensively to the columns
of THE NEW CANADIAN in
pre-evacuation days. It is our
I went on my bike to Quebec,
you know, and caught a brighter
glimpse of that Canadian vision.
And now that the Nisei scene is
fast disappearing from my horizon,
I feel it beckoning: me onward like
Paul’s Mactedonian call. My horizon
of interests is widening steadily
since my venture forth into east
ern Canada.
The bike trip itself furnished ex,
cellent experience. It taught me
that my cruising speed over level
road is 12 m. p. h., that 120 miles
represents the maximum in com
fortable travelling for one day’s
effort, that a -trip by oneself need
not be monotonous. The ISO-mile
stretch to Quebec was 40 miles; too
much for a day’s travel. I nearly
ruined my left knee, since the left
pedal bar was not quite aligned
correctly. As a result, although I
left home at 5 a.m. and although
I made excellent progress, about
forty miles out . from Quebec my
left leg gave away and I crawled
into Quebec about eleven o’clock
that nights
BED IN THE CORRIDOR
I was all-in. To my horror I dis
covered that there was simply .no
room available, the day being a
Saturday. At about the tenth place
a French Canadian girl took pity
on me, (I guess I must have looked
the way I felt), and said, after a
moment’s . consultation with her
mother, that they could rig up
sleeping quarters in one of the
corridors if I didn’t mind that. Did
I ? Half an hour later I thought
that bed was one of the .most com
fortable and welcome ones I’ve ever
flopped into.
Well, it rained the following
morning and it poured Monday
mo'rning. Sandwiched in between
those dismal hours was a cloudy;
sunshiny Sunday afternoon, during
which I went to and about town
hog-wild. I went native. L gabbed
more fluent French in a few hours
than I have in a few month in
Montreal. * ~
OLD GRAY CITY
But let me tell you a little about
Quebec. “Quaint”, “picturesque”,
“historical” are a few of the stan-
hope that he will be able to
write again for us as descriptive
ly as he has in this brief sketch
of a ISO-mile bicycle trip from
Montreal
to
Quebec City.—Ed.
dard terms used to describe the
city. I would like to add the adjec
tive “gray” to this lot. Remember
Henley’s poem, “Margaritae Sorori” in which he utters:
“There falls on the old, gray city
An influence luminous and serene,
A shining peace”
These lines flashed vividly across
my “inward eye” when I reverently
viewed the sights of that grand
old lady, “la grande dame,” of
Canadian cities.
The ghosts of the dead seemed
to come marching up the hallowed
corridor of time out of my muchthumbed history text. They seem
to rule over the place. The mono
tone of gray of the buildings and
monuments strengthens this feel
ing. Even a walk up St. John’s
Street, the Granville Street' of the
city’s “upper town,” with its
crowded and subdued stores con.firms this impression.
One does not simply get a
“thrill” out of doing the sights.
One feels a sort of reverence and
awe instead! Unless one has more
than a passing knowledge of early
Canadian history, one misses the
full significance of the memorabiia.
FAILURE OF FRENCH CANADA
And do you know ? I felt that
the French Canadians have totally
missed the full import, the nature
of the accomplishments and spirit
of their forefathers. They have
petrified the glorious deeds of
their Cartiers, Champlains, Jean
Talons, Lavals and Montcalms.
Like many a Nisei they cling to
the past, they insist upon their
minority rights, and fail to seize
boldly their chance to help build
a greater Canada. What a univer
sal principle Christ laid down when
he said, “For -whosoever will save
his life shall lose it; and whoso
ever will lose his life for my sake
(a greater cause) shall find it.”
I thought, and I thought. I felt
an inward surge of power, a re
newal of faith in Canada and the
enduring quality of her institu
tions, warped and twisted thoughthey may at times become.?

by “PEG”
Last night I dreamed of home.
During the past year I have had
many such dreams. But this was
different. I saw the house, garden
and fields as I have always known
... the past dearer than the pre
sent or the future.
During the day I- tried to be like
the modern realistic Nisei. “B.C?
that is the past. Forget it. To
morrow is purs.” Still those dreams
haunted me in sleep.
Last night the image had chang
ed. The same perfume .of straw
berry blossoms was heavy on the
evening air. Mount Baker was as
rosy as ever. Old man Fraser
flowed dreamily into the setting
sun. But the person on the hilltop
was not I.
First it was a child of undiscernable
nationality.
Canadian,
that’s it; gazing eagerly as I have
often done. As I watched, the
figure became an old w o m a n
above the valley that was no long
er fruitful but overcome with the
years of neglect. Yet the darken
ing fields reflected the bountiful
scene of her youth in her eyes.
I awoke with rhe hot prairie
sun streaming in the window. I
felt at peace. It seemed'.' that at
last I had fully accepted the evacaution . .. I had been able to see
home as it must be now.
If I lose my home and my val
ley, what then? I shall fight for
them with all people who believe
in justice but I shall no longer be
afraid nor bitter of the outcome.
Home will never be the same for
.me after this is over, but the pic
ture of my childhood Canada will
always be mine and never, change.
I understand now what is meant
by “leaving memories ’ as memor
ies”.
Feeling all this, I was absolved
of the past like the phoenix rising
from the flame. I am ready for
tomorrow.
Lonely Hearts...
Seek Niseiette Pen Pals
Here’s something hew to the
columns of the New Canadian . ...
up in a lonely road camp of the
Hope-Princeton line there are three
young men who in existing through
day after dull day of camp exist
ence have sent us this appeal .for
correspondents, particularly those
of the fairer sex who could help
keep them in touch with the out
side world and boost their sagging
morale. How about it, gals, some
body want to do a good turn ?
Their address is c[o T. Yama.,
Summit Road Camp No. 4, Pr• inceton, B. C. and here are the
fellows:
“T. Y.” says he’s “waiting” to
hear from any girls. He’s a Jap
anese National who can write and
speak fairly good English. He says
he’s “short, dark and handsome .. but never mind the ‘short’, girls, I
can always wear ‘takageta’.” He’s
29, and still single. Crazy about
outdoor sports and NOTE: “my
chief hobbies at present are wash
ing and mending.” He “will gladly
exchange photos after the sixth
letter in succession.”
“K. F.” is married so he says
his appearance would not interest
you girls but he. thinks he looks
“quite handsome”. He’s 29 and is
most ^anxious to hear from any
girls who can -write good English
letters and are -willing to receive
■written Japanese letters. His hobby
is writing “haiku”.
Last not but least, is “K. O.., a
brash young man who wants to
know if any of you are looking
“for a young man tall, dark and
handsome, age twenty-one and to
make everything perfect, single?”.
He says “gee, it’s too bad that I
as a handsome man has been negglected- by you young girls. “Write
to me and find out who I am.” He
will gladly send you the pictures, of
his camp and exchange photos
after the third letter in succession.
Girls, the rest is up to you.!

Evacuees Hard at Work in Interior
Revestoke Cedar Camp
REVELSTOKE, B. C. — This
camp is situated in the woods seven
miles from Revelstoke and opera
ted by Mr. Lloyd who has a door
factory in Ontario and Mr. Butler
who has a small mill in Revelstoke.
The chief work is cutting sevenfoot cedar boards for the Ontario
door factory. This work is planned
for three years.
H. Tsuchiya and Y. Higano who
evacuated last year opened this
Japanese camp at this cedar mill
and on July 22 of this year,
Higano, K. Takei and T. Sakuyama
started work. Additional men came
camps on July 14.
The jobs are all by piecework
with the following rates of pay:
one 7-foot cedar board 25c each,
logs per thousand feet S2.00, and
telephone poles of 30-40 feet, 2 to
21k per foot.
Y. Higano is the head of-the Jap
anese crew, S. Kimura is camp
cook. Our address is P. O. Box 13S,
Revelstoke, B. C.
Other members of the camp in
clude—T. Kawano, H. Ono, I.
Oyama, S. Hamazaki, S. Kimura,
S. Nakagawa, C. Aoyama, I.
Shimura, K. Koyama and H. Izumi.
Tappen Mill and Farms
TAPPEN, B. C. — There are
twenty Japanese working here at
a tie mill operation by Charley
Nakamura -which started work in
the April of this year. Tappen is a
small hamlet on the Shuswap Lake
thirty miles west of Salmon Arm.
The mill is running so smoothly
that we are confident that we will
be able to work throughout the
-winter. Some of the. young men
have joined the “hakujin” softball
squad here and have engaged in
many games against teams from
the nearby districts.
There are no big .orchards in the
neighbourhood but every farm has
about 20 to30 fruit trees, including
apple, cherry, plum: and prune.
Thusly there is no scarcity of fruit
although this year the crop was
spoiled and only half of the usual
yield is expected. We are also
doing general farming and at the
end of July we had our first crop
of hay. This month we started to
harvest the crop of grain and the
second hay and we expect to finish
by mid- September.
Some of the older men are selfsupporting by working full-time
on vegetable gardens but we have
been so busy with harvests of hay
and grain that even they have been
obliged to work all day in the fields
and tend to their vegetables only
in the evenings. Although I’m just
a mill-worker (for twenty years)
I have tried my hand at vegetables
this year and my potatoes were
especially good. We have been eat
ing them since the middle of July.
Thunder River Highway
THUNDER RIVER, B. G.-At
the present time there are 79 Jap
anese in! this camp. Road construc
tion is difficult in this area but
with continued good weather, the
work has progressed steadily. We
are now working ot a site four
miles east of thq, camp.
The Shinwakai, the camp organ
ization, held a meeting on July 25
at which a new executive was elec
ted including the following mem
bers :
S. Sato, N. Tomoguchi, T. Sasaki,
N. Yasui, S. Hirata, K. Inouye
and M. Yamada.
Eisuke Goto, our former chair
man, had worked .in that capacity
for- a long period of time and he
had resigned his position with the
view to leaving for the prairie
provinces soon. The m embers
would like to express their thanks
to bun for all his good service
and work for the camp.
Time Out for Softball
VERNON.—“Coast Jap Boys
Have Fun Here” is the way the
Vernon’ News puts it, in recount
ing the lighter side of life and
hard times in the Okanagan Val
ley.
“The young element of Japanese
evacuated into the Interior from
Coastal areas are not letting any
grass grow under their feet as far
as recreation and entertainment are
cocerned.
“Tuesday afternoon, 11 youths,
sawmill workers at Sugar Lake,
travelled- south to the Rainbow
Ranche at Okanagan Centre. There
they, played softball against a team
of Japanese, also evacuated from
the coast.
Southern Alberta Relaxes
farmers enjoy wienies, jive n softball
By J. Iwaasa
RAYMOND, Alta.—After a busy
spell of thinning, July 17 found
a good crowd of young folk
swinging, swaying and jitterbugg
ing to the latest hit tunes at the
Raymond Y. P. S. dance.
President Hiromu Fujiki spoke a
few words of welcome to open the
evening’s festivities. At intermis
sion the eight cases of pop, one
of which was donated by Mr.
Karaki, were set to by one and
all. Among the hits of the evening
were the novelty dances with
lucky prize-winners being, Kay
Kawasaki and Jeaunne Iwaasa.
*
*
*
Local Y. P. S. members and visi
tors trudged down to the* Raymond
Fairgrounds on Saturday evening,
July 24, for a weiner roast. A boys
versus girls softball tilt was play
ed all the better to work up an
appetite and the boys had to strive
their utmost before eking out a win
over the feminine squad.
One novelty race found several
couples
blindfolded,
frantically
shouting for their partner. Nancy
Sassa and Jeaunne Iwaasa -were
the first to be successful and cop
ped the prize of a bottle of pop
to the envy of all.
Then with parched throats and
famished stomaches the gang at
tacked the weiners, rolls and pop
with a vengeance. With the deli
cious smells of sizzling weiners
blending in the night air, lustly
Nisei voices joined in the carolling
of songs, old and new, and as the
burning embers slowly died away,
another Y. P. S. success was
brought to a close.
*
»
*
On July 26th a Y. P. S. girls
softball team was organized under
the management of Hiromu Fujiki
and ten enthusiastic girls buckled
down to some practises. Then chaL
lenging the Coaldale A11-S tar
team, they played their first game
at Coaldale on Aug. 9th, which re
sulted in a narrow and exciting
win for them, to the score of 18-16.
The team powered by the Sassa
sisters, Frances, Nancy,. Dorothy
and Ruth; the Iwaasa sisters,
Yasuko, Kuni and Sumi, Tazuko
Fujiki, Mae Haraga and Koko
Kabayama are looking forward to
more games with teams from the
neighbouring districts.
Coaldale Drops Two
IRON SPRINGS, Alta. — The
local Y. P. A. ball team journeyed
to Coaldale August 8, and showing
a fine reversal of form administer
ed a 10-2 trouncing to the host
team. Tsugio Iwamoto pitched a
fine game, holding the losers to
two hits The line-ups: Iron Springs—T.
Hayashi, T. Iwamoto, R. Hayashi,
H. Kuramoto, T. Miyashita, N.
Abe, T. Kanno, T. Medwruma, T.

Last night I dreamed of home.
During the past year I have had
many such dreams. But this was
different. I saw the house, garden
and fields as I have always known
... the past dearer than the pre
sent or the future.
During the day I- tried to be like
the modern realistic Nisei. “B.C?
that is the past. Forget it. To
morrow is purs.” Still those dreams
haunted me in sleep.
Last night the image had chang
ed. The same perfume .of straw
berry blossoms was heavy on the
evening air. Mount Baker was as
rosy as ever. Old man Fraser
flowed dreamily into the setting
sun. But the person on the hilltop
was not I.
First it was a child of undiscernable
nationality.
Canadian,
that’s it; gazing eagerly as I have
often done. As I watched, the
figure became an old w o m a n
above the valley that was no long
er fruitful but overcome with the
years of neglect. Yet the darken
ing fields reflected the bountiful
scene of her youth in her eyes.
I awoke with rhe hot prairie
sun streaming in the window. I
felt at peace. It seemed'.' that at
last I had fully accepted the evacaution . .. I had been able to see
home as it must be now.
If I lose my home and my val
ley, what then? I shall fight for
them with all people who believe
in justice but I shall no longer be
afraid nor bitter of the outcome.
Home will never be the same for
.me after this is over, but the pic
ture of my childhood Canada will
always be mine and never, change.
I understand now what is meant
by “leaving memories ’ as memor
ies”.
Feeling all this, I was absolved
of the past like the phoenix rising
from the flame. I am ready for
tomorrow.
Lonely Hearts...
Seek Niseiette Pen Pals
Here’s something hew to the
columns of the New Canadian . ...
up in a lonely road camp of the
Hope-Princeton line there are three
young men who in existing through
day after dull day of camp exist
ence have sent us this appeal .for
correspondents, particularly those
of the fairer sex who could help
keep them in touch with the out
side world and boost their sagging
morale. How about it, gals, some
body want to do a good turn ?
Their address is c[o T. Yama.,
Summit Road Camp No. 4, Pr• inceton, B. C. and here are the
fellows:
“T. Y.” says he’s “waiting” to
hear from any girls. He’s a Jap
anese National who can write and
speak fairly good English. He says
he’s “short, dark and handsome .. but never mind the ‘short’, girls, I
can always wear ‘takageta’.” He’s
29, and still single. Crazy about
outdoor sports and NOTE: “my
chief hobbies at present are wash
ing and mending.” He “will gladly
exchange photos after the sixth
letter in succession.”
“K. F.” is married so he says
his appearance would not interest
you girls but he. thinks he looks
“quite handsome”. He’s 29 and is
most ^anxious to hear from any
girls who can -write good English
letters and are -willing to receive
■written Japanese letters. His hobby
is writing “haiku”.
Last not but least, is “K. O.., a
brash young man who wants to
know if any of you are looking
“for a young man tall, dark and
handsome, age twenty-one and to
make everything perfect, single?”.
He says “gee, it’s too bad that I
as a handsome man has been negglected- by you young girls. “Write
to me and find out who I am.” He
will gladly send you the pictures, of
his camp and exchange photos
after the third letter in succession.
Girls, the rest is up to you.!

Evacuees Hard at Work in Interior
Revestoke Cedar Camp
REVELSTOKE, B. C. — This
camp is situated in the woods seven
miles from Revelstoke and opera
ted by Mr. Lloyd who has a door
factory in Ontario and Mr. Butler
who has a small mill in Revelstoke.
The chief work is cutting sevenfoot cedar boards for the Ontario
door factory. This work is planned
for three years.
H. Tsuchiya and Y. Higano who
evacuated last year opened this
Japanese camp at this cedar mill
and on July 22 of this year,
Higano, K. Takei and T. Sakuyama
started work. Additional men came
camps on July 14.
The jobs are all by piecework
with the following rates of pay:
one 7-foot cedar board 25c each,
logs per thousand feet S2.00, and
telephone poles of 30-40 feet, 2 to
21k per foot.
Y. Higano is the head of-the Jap
anese crew, S. Kimura is camp
cook. Our address is P. O. Box 13S,
Revelstoke, B. C.
Other members of the camp in
clude—T. Kawano, H. Ono, I.
Oyama, S. Hamazaki, S. Kimura,
S. Nakagawa, C. Aoyama, I.
Shimura, K. Koyama and H. Izumi.
Tappen Mill and Farms
TAPPEN, B. C. — There are
twenty Japanese working here at
a tie mill operation by Charley
Nakamura -which started work in
the April of this year. Tappen is a
small hamlet on the Shuswap Lake
thirty miles west of Salmon Arm.
The mill is running so smoothly
that we are confident that we will
be able to work throughout the
-winter. Some of the. young men
have joined the “hakujin” softball
squad here and have engaged in
many games against teams from
the nearby districts.
There are no big .orchards in the
neighbourhood but every farm has
about 20 to30 fruit trees, including
apple, cherry, plum: and prune.
Thusly there is no scarcity of fruit
although this year the crop was
spoiled and only half of the usual
yield is expected. We are also
doing general farming and at the
end of July we had our first crop
of hay. This month we started to
harvest the crop of grain and the
second hay and we expect to finish
by mid- September.
Some of the older men are selfsupporting by working full-time
on vegetable gardens but we have
been so busy with harvests of hay
and grain that even they have been
obliged to work all day in the fields
and tend to their vegetables only
in the evenings. Although I’m just
a mill-worker (for twenty years)
I have tried my hand at vegetables
this year and my potatoes were
especially good. We have been eat
ing them since the middle of July.
Thunder River Highway
THUNDER RIVER, B. G.-At
the present time there are 79 Jap
anese in! this camp. Road construc
tion is difficult in this area but
with continued good weather, the
work has progressed steadily. We
are now working ot a site four
miles east of thq, camp.
The Shinwakai, the camp organ
ization, held a meeting on July 25
at which a new executive was elec
ted including the following mem
bers :
S. Sato, N. Tomoguchi, T. Sasaki,
N. Yasui, S. Hirata, K. Inouye
and M. Yamada.
Eisuke Goto, our former chair
man, had worked .in that capacity
for- a long period of time and he
had resigned his position with the
view to leaving for the prairie
provinces soon. The m embers
would like to express their thanks
to bun for all his good service
and work for the camp.

RAYMOND, Alta.—After a busy
spell of thinning, July 17 found
a good crowd of young folk
swinging, swaying and jitterbugg

Raymond Y. P. S. dance.
President Hiromu Fujiki spoke a
few words of welcome to open the
evening’s festivities. At intermis

of which was donated by Mr.
Karaki, were set to by one and
all. Among the hits of the evening
were the novelty dances with
lucky prize-winners being, Kay

Local Y. P. S. members and visi
tors trudged down to the* Raymond
Fairgrounds on Saturday evening,
July 24, for a weiner roast. A boys
versus girls softball tilt was play
ed all the better to work up an
appetite and the boys had to strive
their utmost before eking out a win
over the feminine squad.
One novelty race found several
couples
blindfolded,
frantically
shouting for their partner. Nancy
Sassa and Jeaunne Iwaasa -were
the first to be successful and cop
ped the prize of a bottle of pop
to the envy of all.
Then with parched throats and
famished stomaches the gang at
tacked the weiners, rolls and pop
with a vengeance. With the deli
cious smells of sizzling weiners
blending in the night air, lustly
Nisei voices joined in the carolling
of songs, old and new, and as the
burning embers slowly died away,
another Y. P. S. success was
brought to a close.

On July 26th a Y. P. S. girls

the management of Hiromu Fujiki
and ten enthusiastic girls buckled
down to some practises. Then chaL

team, they played their first game
at Coaldale on Aug. 9th, which re
sulted in a narrow and exciting
win for them, to the score of 18-16.
The team powered by the Sassa
sisters, Frances, Nancy,. Dorothy

Yasuko, Kuni and Sumi, Tazuko
Fujiki, Mae Haraga and Koko

more games with teams from the
