Supt. Chalcraft, of Siletz, was a welcome Chemawa visitor not long

Recently Misses Ruth Brewer and Myrtle Swoboda have been em

wa. Mr. R. H. Kennedy and Father Gall are again looking after the relig
ious work at Chemawa for the Protestant and Catholic students, respec

sist Mr. Kennedy in conducting special meetings for two weeks in No
vember. Simeon Frotis paid Chemawa a visit recently. He has many friends
here who were pleased to greet him. At present he is situated at
Empire City, in the Coos Bay section, where he has employment.
Reggie Downie, who passed the summer fishing near Wrangell,
Alaska, is again enrolled at Chemawa and is attending business college
in Salem. Louis Paul of Wrangell is in Salem and is attending high
school. .
Henry Darnell of Kalama, Wash., is enrolled at Chemawa and is attend
ing business college in Salem. Henry spent the greater part of his boy
hood here and naturally he feels entirely at home with us. He grad
uated from Chemawa several years ago.
During the month of August Pickering Chalcraft paid Chemawa
friends a visit while enroute to Siletz to pass a month with his parents
and his sister. Pickering is attending Washington University and is
getting along splendidly in every way.
Mr. L,. S. Beveridge, Principal of the Boys' School of the Portland
Y. M. C. A.,visited the Chemawa Y. M. C. A. Sunday evening, Oct. 10,
and gave an enteresting talk to our young men. He has promised to
come again and make us a longer visit.
During the month of August Miss Bessie Eaton, a teacher in the schools
of Salt Lake City, Utah, was for a couple of weeks the guest of Mrs. C.
D. Fulkerson of Chemawa. She proved a most pleasant and lady-like
personage and made many friends during her visit here.
When last we heard from Harry Jones he informed us that he was
headed for La Touche, Alaska, where he stated he would be bookkeeper
for a copper mine. We believe that all that he said was true, but that
he told only a part of the truth, as we have heard a thunderous rumor
to the effect that he had a matrimonial proposition in mind which was
proving absolutely irresistable.
