Hello all. This Japan Times archive seems to be offered to institutions, not individuals, so we need to encourage our institutions to subscribe! The free trial would give us the chance to tell the institutions whether it is worth the subscription cost, if only we were in London. If anyone going to BL would care to have a quick look for my great aunt Ethel Maude Pearce for me I would be delighted. I found LOTS about her in Canadian newspapers when she was there. She was known as Maude and was a nursing sister in Japan about 1933. Search term "Nurse Pearce" often works. I understand that it’s a long shot, but I can hope. cheers, Lyn Smith near Dubbo, NSW
