Nisei GI’s Did It
In surveying widespread reports and comment upon
the return of Japanese Americans to their former homes
on the Pacific Coast, one significant fact stands out.
The one thing which above all others has made the
return possible is the fact that American citizens of
Japanese ancestry are serving in the armed forces of
their country on terms of substantial equality with all
other citizens.
The record of Nisei soldiers in Italy, in France, in
the western Pacific and in the China-Burma-India theatre
has been made widely known to the American people.
And it is this significant record which has so influenced
American public opinion as to convince the Federal
Government that a return to the coast was both: just and
practical.

Being out of school for a long

ambitious and with but a single
purpose in mind—get as much ed

to keep up ’with the rest of the
class. At the close of the term he

When Tak moved away from
the coast he had thought that one
day7 he would return. But as time
went by7 he became more anc more
convinced that the East was for’
him. The people were not in the
“once a Jap, always a Jap” frame
of mind. Making a good first im
pression was paramount and Tak
did his best.
When the notice was received
that the farm had been sold by7
the custodian, Tak felt crushed. If
only7 the farm had been sold' for
at least somewhere near its true
value.
His father and mother took it
pretty hard.
They had spent
twenty years improving it. The
land although located beside the
highway7 had been all forest and
the nearest neighbors were three
miles away7 at the time they7 had
bought the farm. They7 had cleared
the land, worked hard and built
it up to the abundantly- producing
berry7 farm. Their children were
born there and grew up on the
farm. It was from here that the
children went eff to school each
morning . . . And to learn that the
property7 was sold for a mere

Tak’s parents felt that they had
lost everything . . . they7 were too
old to s^art from scratch again.
Tak was dejected at first. But
now that the last tie with the
coast was severed, Tak felt a
sense of relief too. Now he would
have to concentrate all his effort
on making his permanent nome in

To Tak, evacuation meant many
things. It opened up new horizons
heretofore never dreamed of. It
enabled him to see Canada. Prior
to the evacuation he had never
travelled farther than ChilliwackIt enabled him to enter university
and complete his schooling. It en
abled him to secure work in his

Most of us like to pretend that
we’re a bunch of hard-boiled eggs,
void of human feeling- just to
show off. I’m no exception. People
like to say* that they’re not home
sick and pile it on thick to build
up what they think is a hard
veneer ovex- their feelings, and
I m one of them. But when you’re
going home at Christmas, you
find out you’re nothing but a
softie, yearning to be home,
yearning for a bawling out from
your mother, yearning to eat a
nice home-cooked meal—that is if
you’re batching as I am.
We lit up cigarettes;, and settled
back in the seats as the bus slow
ly7 got into motion. The morning
was cold and dark, the heater
hadn’t warmed up as much as it
should have. We bundled our
selves up in our overcoats and
curled up on the cushioned seats.

hour or so lends just that nice
touch of being in a city.
Actually7, only7 about the size of
North Vancouver, with only7 one
department store, the Hudson Bay,
Woolworth’s, a whole line of inde
pendent busmesses, one theater
and a lot of cars running up and
down the street, Nelson is not
such a large city7. But to the citybred who has been closeted in the
seclusion of an interior7 housing
centre, it is a sight for hungrey7
eyes. We must be a sight for
hungry eyes too the way- our
money7 burns through the holes in
our pockets.
In due time after boarding the
Slocan-bound bus we arrived in
Lemon Creek.
Lemon Creek is a dead place.
Even Lemon Creekers will agree
with y-ou. But not without that
special look in their eyes which is
plain as any7 red flag waved unoer
y7our nose.
There the wolves are having a
field day. (Funny how we always
get into the subject of wolves.)
The eastern relocee’s conception
of a ghost as so aptly7 cartooned
by artist F.A.M. will give you a
fair idea, although he could have
expanded a little more.
But the wolves were having
trouble that week because all the
boys from the ’ogging camps all
over B.C. were back for their holi
days and it was the fairer sex’s
turn to enjoy7 a change of scen-’w.
‘Twas said that anything with
pants on and grown up was u
rarity7 before the boys got home.
But Lemon Creekers seem to
thrive on this “dead life.”
For entertainment, they have
movies once a week, dances once a
month and twiddling their thumus
the rest of the time.

A NICE CHRISTMAS IN VERNON
Ever since the evacuation I have
never enjoyed any- of my7 Christ
mases, but this year for the first
time, my- wish for a nice Christ
mas came true in Vernon.
I was quite disappointed nt first
to see no snow on the ground. But
when I was coming home from
the super show, it began to snow.
I was heppy for we were to have
a white Christmas after all.
We had a nice Christmas tree
in the house. We usually have a
tree every year. It was a grand
tree with sparkling decorations
and surrounded by7 nicely- wrapped
presents.
1 was both surprised and pleased
to see the names of so many
friends and most of the parcels
and greeting cards had the stamp
mark of the interior towns. I
guess being in Vernon for Christ
mas brought me luck.
I am of the type who can’t wait
wait and so before Christmas ar- *
rived half my presents had been
opened. Usually- I’m the sleepy
head of the family- but on this day
1 was the first one cut from my
nice cozy7 bed. I opened all my
presents before anyone else awoke.
The biggest package was the
hardest to unwrap. It was wrap
ped mostly- in paper and by the
time I got down to the present,
there was enough naner for a
scrap drive. At the end of unwrap
ping sheet after sheet of paper, I
finally7 found a pretty7 bracelet.
Then came the big Christmas
dinner. A turkey, a big one was
on the table. It was delicious.
Before we began eating, my sis
ter ami I had a quarrel. We quar
relled about the wishing bone, but
after Ml. I’m the big sister so I
gave it to her.
I sure filled my7 stomach up
with turkey. I should not have
eaten the last helping, but gee, it
was the Christmas dinner wasn't
it?
I hope all the folks, all across
Canada enjoyed their Christmas
dinner as much as I did.

No one, although in a lighter
mood than in the previous two
Christmases, seemed to have the
Christmas spirit except the little
children. This spirit was exempli
fied by7 little Jimmy- when I went
visiting on Christmas eve.
Jimmy7 dug out the biggest
stocking he could find in the house
to hang up.
And he fed to have a Christmas
tree. Well, if nobody would do It,
he’d do it himself. He got a bucket
filled with dirt and stuck a tree
in it. With strips of crepe paper
he criss-crossed the streamers all
over the tree, until it got lost in
the maze of paper. He stood
back to admire his work. That's
more like it he said. Paper
was strewn all over the floor and
the room was a mess, but Jimmyhad the right spirit and that’s
what really counted.
December l.l. Rev. Y. Yoshioka,
performed the ceremony.
Baishakunins were Mr. and Mrs,
Moichi Ogasawara of Vernon, B.C.
The New Canadian gratefully7
acknowledges the very generous
donation from Mr. Eijiro Shishido
commemorating
his
daughter's
marriage.

he thought he could work his way
through university. Why net? His
family encouraged him. He ap
plied and enrolled in the univer
sity7 classes.
Being out of school for a long
time did not deter Tak. He was
ambitious and with but a single
purpose in mind—get as much ed
ucation as possible—so he was able
to keep up ’with the rest of the
class. At the close of the term he
ranked among the top honor stu
dents. Having majored in science,
he came under the Jurisdiction of
the Wartime Bureau of Technical
Personnel. Through the aid of the
Bureau, and with his previous

When Tak moved away from
the coast he had thought that one
day7 he would return. But as time
went by7 he became more anc more
convinced that the East was for’
him. The people were not in the
“once a Jap, always a Jap” frame
of mind. Making a good first im
pression was paramount and Tak
did his best.
When the notice was received
that the farm had been sold by7
the custodian, Tak felt crushed. If
only7 the farm had been sold' for
at least somewhere near its true
value.
His father and mother took it
pretty hard.
They had spent
twenty years improving it. The
land although located beside the
highway7 had been all forest and
the nearest neighbors were three
miles away7 at the time they7 had
bought the farm. They7 had cleared
the land, worked hard and built
it up to the abundantly- producing
berry7 farm. Their children were
born there and grew up on the
farm. It was from here that the
children went eff to school each
morning . . . And to learn that the
property7 was sold for a mere
8965.16 less S50.00 for legal fees,
Tak’s parents felt that they had
lost everything . . . they7 were too
old to s^art from scratch again.
Tak was dejected at first. But
now that the last tie with the
coast was severed, Tak felt a
sense of relief too. Now he would
have to concentrate all his effort
on making his permanent nome in
the east. The dispersal announce
ment made bv the Prime Minister
was encouraging
. .
To Tak, evacuation meant many
things. It opened up new horizons
heretofore never dreamed of. It
enabled him to see Canada. Prior
to the evacuation he had never
travelled farther than ChilliwackIt enabled him to enter university
and complete his schooling. It en
abled him to secure work in his
chosen vocation. But above all. it

Most of us like to pretend that
we’re a bunch of hard-boiled eggs,
void of human feeling- just to
show off. I’m no exception. People
like to say* that they’re not home

up what they think is a hard

I m one of them. But when you’re
going home at Christmas, you
find out you’re nothing but a

yearning for a bawling out from

nice home-cooked meal—that is if
you’re batching as I am.
We lit up cigarettes;, and settled
back in the seats as the bus slow

was cold and dark, the heater
hadn’t warmed up as much as it
should have. We bundled our

such a large city7. But to the citybred who has been closeted in the

The eastern relocee’s conception
of a ghost as so aptly7 cartooned

fair idea, although he could have
expanded a little more.
But the wolves were having
trouble that week because all the
boys from the ’ogging camps all
over B.C. were back for their holi
days and it was the fairer sex’s
turn to enjoy7 a change of scen-’w.
‘Twas said that anything with

A NICE CHRISTMAS IN VERNON
Ever since the evacuation I have
never enjoyed any- of my7 Christ
mases, but this year for the first
time, my- wish for a nice Christ
mas came true in Vernon.
I was quite disappointed nt first
to see no snow on the ground. But
when I was coming home from
the super show, it began to snow.
I was heppy for we were to have
a white Christmas after all.
We had a nice Christmas tree
in the house. We usually have a
tree every year. It was a grand
tree with sparkling decorations
and surrounded by7 nicely- wrapped
presents.
1 was both surprised and pleased
to see the names of so many
friends and most of the parcels
and greeting cards had the stamp
mark of the interior towns. I
guess being in Vernon for Christ
mas brought me luck.
I am of the type who can’t wait
wait and so before Christmas ar- *
rived half my presents had been
opened. Usually- I’m the sleepy
head of the family- but on this day
1 was the first one cut from my
nice cozy7 bed. I opened all my
presents before anyone else awoke.
The biggest package was the
hardest to unwrap. It was wrap
ped mostly- in paper and by the
time I got down to the present,
there was enough naner for a
scrap drive. At the end of unwrap
ping sheet after sheet of paper, I
finally7 found a pretty7 bracelet.
Then came the big Christmas
dinner. A turkey, a big one was
on the table. It was delicious.
Before we began eating, my sis
ter ami I had a quarrel. We quar
relled about the wishing bone, but
after Ml. I’m the big sister so I
gave it to her.
I sure filled my7 stomach up
with turkey. I should not have
eaten the last helping, but gee, it
was the Christmas dinner wasn't
it?
I hope all the folks, all across
Canada enjoyed their Christmas
dinner as much as I did.

No one, although in a lighter
mood than in the previous two
Christmases, seemed to have the
Christmas spirit except the little
children. This spirit was exempli
fied by7 little Jimmy- when I went
visiting on Christmas eve.
Jimmy7 dug out the biggest
stocking he could find in the house
to hang up.
And he fed to have a Christmas
tree. Well, if nobody would do It,
he’d do it himself. He got a bucket
filled with dirt and stuck a tree
in it. With strips of crepe paper
he criss-crossed the streamers all
over the tree, until it got lost in
the maze of paper. He stood
back to admire his work. That's
more like it he said. Paper
was strewn all over the floor and
the room was a mess, but Jimmyhad the right spirit and that’s
what really counted.
December l.l. Rev. Y. Yoshioka,
performed the ceremony.
Baishakunins were Mr. and Mrs,
Moichi Ogasawara of Vernon, B.C.
