ITEM S FROM TH E TR A D ES Notice to students: Now is the time to give the best effort you have, as everyone is busy. Get the habit. Charles Ell is building a linen closet at the Super intendent’s residence, which will be completed this week. The tailors are well along with their spring work and are at present busy with costumes for the com mencement entertainm ent. The carpenters are finishing the cases for the do mestic art department, as well as the stage properties for the auditorium. They have a great deal of other work in progress also. The baby chicks continue to grow. In fact, they grow so rapidly it will soon be necessary to build more houses for them. Mr. Henry T urner is a busy man these days feeding and caring for them. A great deal of well-deserved praise is heard of the stencils designed and made by Martin Colby in the mechanical drawing room. The painters recently finished stenciling the designs on the panel screens made by the carpenters some time ago. Mrs. Shafer, hospital cook, is taking a week off which she will spend at Lebanon, Oregon. Her sis ter, Mrs. R. S. Howard, of Salem, took her place d u r ing her absence. The engineers are cleaning up and doing some re pairing about the plant. Our new chief engineer, Mr. Beck, from Spokane, W ashington, arrived several days ago and has taken charge of the work. The leather workers are busy as usual with shoes and harness. The wet weather of the past spring has been very hard on shoes and they experience consider able difficulty in keeping pace ith the demand for repairs. The plumbers have just finished placing the drink ing fountain at the library. They also put in a gaso line tank at the Superintendent’s residence this week. John Hanson and John Malataire have recently joined this detail. Mr. Beebe and detail have been whitewashing the fences about the place. If anyone is needing to be whitewashed we suggest they apply to him, as he claims he will do a thorough job. This detail hasalso done some good and much-needed work on the drives about the grounds. The painters are painting the bandstand and will begin on the Superintendent’s residence soon. Our outside work has been considerably delayed this spring on account of bad weather. The inside work they have done is all to the good and they have several pieces of furniture to finish before demonstration week. Mr. Charles Beck is now chief engineer at Chemawa. He arrived Monday, May 16. He is much pleased with our school in every particular. He has a daugh ter, Miss Ula, who is attending the University of W ashington in Seattle. A son is trap drummer in the Salem Symphony Orchestra. We are all glad to have Mr. Beck with us. The machinists are about ready to put their demon stration work in shape for exhibit. This department does innumerable jobs about the plant that would be expensive if done in town and is a thoroughly paying proposition, both instructively and financially. The hand tools m anufactured by the boys of this detail and the other work done in this department is ascource of surprise to not a few. The blacksmiths have been making some parts for the swings that were recently rebuilt at Winona Hall. By the prompt and efficient work of this department the farm machinery w’as all repaired and ready to use as soon as weather conditions permitted the begin ning of farm operations. The boys of this detail have also done considerable work in auto repairing this spring and are eager for more to do, which shows the right spirit.
