The vocal offerings of the soloist,
Miss Sachi Uyegaki, and the Japa-

The long procession, fully twen-

through the heart of the downtown

beauty of the final resting place
for our Nisei war dead-situated on
the crest of a rolling green hill,
with row on row of white head
stones. laid with military precision,
marking the graves of American
veterans.
The striking picture presented by

about the center of attraction-the
three urns and the four flag
