	In commemoration of the completion of the new house, many historical books published from Females' Friends Publisher were presented. The set of six books "How to sew western clothing" was published in 1933. It was presented by an old member (the deceased) who lived Moppo, South Korea. From left Watanabe, Nagano, and Nishinaka.

Then lovely kids' cloths were designed by Yoshitaro Nishijima.
All the designs were accompanied by dress patterns. Some include actual cloth samples. The books hand down the strong will of Hani and other pioneers who wanted the western clothing spread for Japanese people.
