Divine Healing Massage Two for One Deal/ Healing method that protects and heats your spirit.
Editorial Note
In the English directory this individual is listed with the occupation of massage while here the kanji 治療院 represents a clinic (calm, healing, institution) which possibly indicates that this individual practices so-called Eastern Medicine (possibly accupuncture). The above translation is an approximation based upon the meanings of the specific kanji.

In the English Directory at this address there are only residents with last names that start with N or vacant listings.

I added the parenthesis around "cific" to add emphasis that it is a phone number, and I also interpreted 檢眼士 as optometry instead of optometrist because it was located in an ad. This interpretation made more sense in this context.

The meanings of the kanji employed in this entry are nation and people; great numbers, masses, and populace; and company, respectively. Cross-referencing with the English Directory, there are two residents at that address and one of them is the Daily People newspaper. The other was a workers' union. It seems more likely that this address refers to the newspaper.

Terminology

Readers of these historical materials will encounter derogatory references to Japanese Canadians and euphemisms used to obscure the intent and impacts of the internment and dispossession. While these are important realities of the history, the Landscapes of Injustice Research Collective urges users to carefully consider their own terminological choices in writing and speaking about this topic today as we confront past injustice. See our statement on terminology, and related sources here.
