THE CHEMAWA
AMERICAN
Mr. Emil Hauser lias moved his family into the quarters recently
vacated by Dr. and Mrs. Frachtenberg.
Mrs. Newcombe, formerly small boys’ matron at Chemawa, again
paid us a visit not long ago. She is looking well and is getting along
capitally, she says.
On account of a great deal of unusual work necessary in preparing
for our commencement it is quite probable that we will be a little late
with our next issue—that of June.
The latest to join the ranks of Chemawa auto-owners are Mr. and
Mrs. K. A. Smith. They recently purchased a fine Buick car. It
is a dandy car—runs with as little noise as a watch.
During April Dr. C. D. Fulkerson was over from Warmsprings reser
vation, where he is now located, to visit his wife and son, who remain
at Chemawa. Many friends were glad to welcome the Doctor during
his visit.
Recently our Indian String Quartet played “ return” engagements in
Salem and Amity. Splendid audiences greeted the organization on
each occasion and were amply repaid by hearing fine programs well
rendered.
Since the announcements of the various institutes were printed,
arrangements have been made with the railroad companies for a special
round-trip rate for all those attending the institute at Chemawa from
the states of Oregon, Washington, California, Idaho, Nevada and Mon
tana. The rate will be one and one-third fare, under the usual con
ditions.
Recently Mr. and Mrs. William Lovelace passed through Chemawa a
couple of times going to and returning from the home of Mr. Lovelace
near Mill City. The father of Mr. Lovelace had died at the family
home and this was the sad occasion of their visit. Formerly Mr. and
Mrs. Lovelace were employed at Chemawa, where they have numerous
friends, but now they hold positions at the Ft. Simcoe school, where
they are getting along nicely.
On May 1st the “ Grim Reaper” appeared to Mrs. Harry Mann at
her home in Chemawa and her spirit departed from its earthly abode.
For quite a long time she had suffered with that awful scourge, tuber
culosis, gradually to grow weaker until the end. The remains were
interred in a Salem cemetery and a large number of our people paid
their last respects to the departed. Tuberculosis has been a merciless
foe of Mr. Mann’s of recent years and each and all of us give him and
his family our fullest sympathy in the awful bereavement just visited
upon them.
