To Visit Relatives
In fatherland

Leaving recently on the N. Y. K.
line for Japan, Mrs. U. Nishiyori and
Yukichi are returning to Japan for
visit with relatives after an absence
of thirteen years. They will visit their
parents first, and are anticipating the
pleasure which it will give them to
meet again after the lapse of years,
during which time Yukichi has grown
IRON a youngster Of eight to fine
young man. The last visit made by
Mrs. Nishiyori to Japan was marred by
her illness, but her health has SO
greatly improved during the past few
years that she is anticipating nothing
but pleasure during this trip.
The length of their visit in the
homeland is indefinite, but Yukichi
plans on returning after he has visit
ed the various relatives, and after his
return Mr.. Nishiyori will leave to join
his wife.
After an absence of more than forty
years he is looking forward with great
anticipation to a return to the land
of his nativity. Mr.. Nishiyori came
to America, locating in San Francisco
at a time when its Market street con-
sisted Of struggling buildings along a
board walk. He came to Seattle some
years later when it was beginning to
take form. He has watched more than
a generation grow up, and has de-
veloped fine philosophy which
coupled with an appreciation of the
fine things of life, and an unfailing
sense of humor makes him gain from
daily living much more than the aver
age.
Mr.. and Mrs. Nishiyori have worked
hard. They are good neighbors ano
friends and enjoy the respect of q
wide circle, not only among their owr
countrymen but among all of the
Americans who know them. Yukich
has accomplished more by his enter.
prise than many boys of his age who
have not had the handicap of foreign
birth. 1t is real pleasure to know
that the Nishiyori family is having
the pleasure of this visit, and it is t.
be hoped that they will return tx
vashon Island as happy to be bacl
again as they are to visit the land o
their birth.
