Description
Photograph of Sr. Godfrey, MM, holding the hands of a young Japanese girl dressed in a kimono. Both smile at the camera. "My first language teacher! She was my 'partner' when we took the children on a picnic and she chattered all the way. Her parents are very Westernized and like to show themselves a good time while little Sawako Chau is left to herself most of the time. She is tickled pink when anyone shows her the least bit of attention. from Sr. Godfrey, Heijo 5/28/1939"
