CHEMAWA POEM (Supposed to have teen written by a fellow years after grad uation) i f I am thinking today o f a school, That I used to attend in the West, And I know for a positive fact, I t’s the greatest and also the best. They take you right into their hearts, And make you feel quickly at rest, They give you a wonderful training, Eiftiug you to the ranks of the blest. There’s no other place you can live in, Where the folks take your interest to heart, And welcome and guide and protect you, Till it costs many tears to depart. Chemawa, I ’ll tip my hat to you, Whenever folks mention your fame, For i t ’s only because of your training, That I ’ve managed to win such a name. In my heart, there’s a love for Chemawa, Tho’ I left there a long time ago, That will last just as long as the mountains Of Alaska are covered with snow.

The little girls’ blue serge uniforms which \ve have been work-, ing on the past week are nearly completed. East week being “ Children’s Clothing W eek,” we made a number of little children’s dresses and romp ers. Each girl designed her own style of pattern. Those who did not make white uniform middies in their Sophomore year, are now making them. We are all very anxious to start our construction dresses, which we hope will be under way by Mon day. Each has to choose her own pattern and select it according to her type. We, being a large class, there are not enough sew ing machines for us all to stitch at once, so each one of us have fancy work on between times. Eook for tis again next Wednesday. J uniors .
