Yuki Kimura of Kyoto, Japan, will be visiting New /jealanu nom Ue -ith. March till the end of J une, and will be the honored guest ol the Y. U .C.A. m New Zealand. Mass mmiura was Constance Duncan’s co-worker in Kyoto, and soiiietning of Miss Kimura s history is quoted iioin “The Melbourne Girl.’' “For three and a null years Miss Kimura and Miss Constance Duncan worked together in the student department, of the Kyote .1 . > C.A. and oil that account our guest has already heard a good deal about Australia.

Miss Kimura was born in Yokohama, and like every other child in Japan, her education commenced in the Government primary school from the age of six to twelve. Successfully passing the entrance examination, site was able to enter the high school, which is the ambition of every scholar. .Such is the desire for education in Japan that often boys and girls will enter their names for the competitive examinations at several schools. Imping to pass the test for at least one of the high schools. Graduating front High School and being successful in passing another entrance examination. Miss Kimura was able to enter l'errtfc Jo Gokko, a school run by the Dutch deformed Church of America—really Presbyterian. This is one of Mv oldest mission schools in Japan, and is famous for its teachings of English and music. .In spite of the warnings of her Buddhist teachers n the High School. Miss Kimura became a Christian after one year at Ferris. Her interest in the Y.W.CtA. began at that , school, ,"*hieh, like rjfmy itfther mission schools in Japan, has a Y.M.t.J. within the school, in the same way as ours have Christion Union Circles.

After graduating from Ferris. Miss Kiimira worked in the \okohoma Y.W.C.A. until the time of tins earthquake in 1923, when the whole city was left in ruins. Al. th'Hieh their home collapsed on Miss Kirnura ami her younger sisters and in-others, none of them was killed, Out they lost everything they possessed in the lire that followed. As soon as she was able to be rimed alter the injuries received, Aliss Kiinura went to Kyoto wnere her Y.W.C.A. friends showed their sympathy by supplying all her needs. From that tune she has worked in the Kyoto ) AY.C'.A. until hist ear, when tli!o urge for education again seized her, and she entered the theological department of the Doshisha University in Kyoto, before the year was completed, Australia sent the invitation to Miss Kirnura to come and visit them. ‘As soon as the examination was over (successfully passed by the way) she set out on the great adventure. Miss Kirnura -s two lirst secretary to come to Australia ".’id New Zealand, though many Japanese secretaries have studied m Aimiriea." MAI SON OWEN BEAUTY BAB Lot 1U». ('omiqeudable enterprise has been shown by the proprietor of the Maison Owen beauty pur'nu-s and hairdressing saloon, n securing the services of Mrs. i\ichards, late (1 Barrett’s, Melbourne, as beauty cuUiuv expert. Airs. Richards has had wide and varied experience m Australia i" hair waving, ..larceMiug, tinting and face packs, and ihe effects of her work should quickly gain tavor in Gisborne.

Mrs. Richards has acquiied hm own process of special face packs for oily cr diy srms, and also hue massage »vith all axis to bc.iu'.y culture. to which the patient responds from the first trenment. it is generally conceded all over the world that the Eugene method of hair treatment is tire best and in this direction Mrs. Richards has made a complete study. The Eugene method is supreme because it does diet "drench the hair with harsh fchemicals or solutions. In Eugene waving, the hair is wcund dry and tliieu fashioned into lovely soft, natural waves by tiny jets ■of clean, harmless steam. Eugene waving is the only method which leaves the hair flawlessly soft and perfectly preserved, irrespective of its tint or texture, even the snowy whiteness of white hair is unaffected. Because by means of -its patented device. . the Eugene Sachet, it is possible to give a permanent wave to the newly grown straight hair without distorting or in any way affecting the -previously waved hair. This feature is exclusive to Eugene permanent waving, the only method that gives the hair a permanently genuine wave, an art that 'Mrs'. Richards has ■ mastered. Ladies should strictly avoid the “bargain” permanent wave as this kind is dear at any price, because it, is so „ seldom permanent, on account of false economy being exercised in not using a sufficient mini, her of-curlers to enable permanency to be achieved. A Eugene wavo mav cOjSt• a; little more but the difference in' beauty and permanence is well woHh,. the eytra little .cost. So whether it be-a marcel, a permanent wave, tinjang or face treatment a. visit 'to Mrs/Richards ,at the i Mai son .Owen Parlours, Gladstone ' road, will > convince you ■ . •.;() : 1

[hat her method of beauty culture is greatly beuelieial to the ha'r and raw*,* " CHEERFUL NEWS.
