pages of Nisei Lycie Annual, a magazine published by
the students of the Tashme Correspondence Classes.

for hope in the future.

in Vancouver in August. The following vignettes will
bring back memories of those days.

pages of Nisei Lycie Annual, a magazine published by
the students of the Tashme Correspondence Classes.

for hope in the future.
A salute to the Tashme Nisei who had their Reunion
in Vancouver in August. The following vignettes will
