Full title:When there is work to be done, the women folks at the Arlington Heights farm are ready, and as can be seen, they
are expert sewers. In this friendly sewing circle on the top floor of what used to be the clubhouse of a famous Illinois golf
course are from left to right: Mrs. Tei Katagiri from Kent, Washington and Tule Lake; Mrs. Frances Makino from Seattle, Washington
and Tule Lake; Mrs. Tsui Hirata from Florin, California and Granada; and Mrs. Shizuko Kadoyama from Kent, Washington and Tule
Lake. While Mrs. Makino, a young bride of six months, looks on, Mrs. Hirata demonstrates a particular technique of the electric
sewing machine. Mrs. Katagiri is crocheting a tablecloth, while Mrs. Kadoyama cuts out a dress pattern. Both Mrs. Katagiri
and Mrs. Hirata are issei who have found that relocation in the Chicago area has pointed the way to new homes and a new life
outside the relocation centers.<lb/> Arlington Heights, Illinois.
