List of Films Available at Japan Tourist Ass'n
Last year the Japan Tourist
Association film “A Japanese
Inn” won a grand prize at the
Brussels
International
Trade
Fair and also in Italy. “Japan In
Winter” won the Grand Prize
Award as the “Best Introductory
Film of Japan, 1958”. Now, Gar­
dens of Japan” has been added
to its film library’- as the 1959
•production. The comments re­
ceived from various people who
attended previews can be sum­
marized as “another grand prize
winner” that should equal or sur­
pass the honors received by other
JTA films. It is the sincere hope
that this film can comply with
and satisfy the strong demand
received till now from the Cana­
dian people who have a keen in­
terest in the Gardens of Japan.
Compared with 1957, 30%
more Canadians visited Japan
last year. Many wanted to tell
others of their trip filled with
excitement, curiosity, thrills and
perhaps, even disappointment.
Some attended International Con­
ferences held in Japan and are
obligated to give talks on their
meetings. Now, the JTA office
will carry 125 slides (colored
35 mm) to assist such people in

making their talks more com­
plete and interesting by illustrat­
ing places they have been. For
those who are planning a trip to
Japan and others who are in­
terested in this country* may bor­
row these .slides ’ and make a
quick trip to Japan through these
colored slides.
List of films:

“Along
Japan’s
Highroad”
color. 30 minutes.
You are guided on a tour from
Tokyo to Hiroshima, visiting
m any in te resting cities along the
Japanese National Railways.
“Picturesque Japan” color. 20
minutes.
Just as the title suggests. It
shows the picturesque; and scenic
beauty spots of Japan.
“Holiday In Japan” color. 25
minutes.
The life of the Ainu and native
folk dances are presented.

Yoshimitsu was taken to a hosgrowth of a person’s body due to
a malfunction of the pituitary
gland.
.
Yoshimitsu has since stopped
growing. But he is now seven feet
six inches tall and may be the
world’s tallest living man. He
weighs 264 pounds.
Dr. Kentaro Shimizu, a neuro­
surgeon in the Tokyo University
Hospital, performed an operation
on Yoshimitsu last year to re­
move an excess of eosinophelic
cells is the pituitary gland which
control a persons growth. After
the operation, his bones hardened
and he stopped growing.
Yoshimitsu, a gentle, easygoing
boy, now works as a handyman
at the Shiunkai Mental Institu­

Yoshimitsu has an IQ of 100.
He eats not much more than the
average Japanese. But he tii'es
easily which disqualifies him
from sports.
Yoshimitsu doesn’t care about
being famous. “I want to live a
normal life and be part of so­

spectacular returns. Life Insurance is not in the picture. But
if you must have an investment that -will do these three
things — create an immediate estate for your family in
the event of your early death, provide a lifetime source of
retirement income, plus liquid funds for emergencies —
then Life Insurance ranks second to none. A permanent
Life Insurance contract is the only investment that can
guarantee this combination. Even in periods of economic
stress. Life Insurance has a record of absolute dependability.
