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.
FRESHMEN
Ever climbing up as each day goes by,
Ever striving onward as the moments fly,
Holding up the banner so each and all may see
The banner of the freshie our pride and boast will
Be.
Our motto, perseverence,
Our colors, red and gold,
Mean the class of ’28
An emblem strong and bold;
With each fleeing moment
We trudge along our way,
We struggle nearer to our !goal

OUR SCHOOE

This school is best, ‘
No matter where you go,
You will always find
Students of the best kind
Wherever you will go.
They all will learn
When it’s their turn
In this dear school of oursI
We will try out best
In all the west
Among its pretty flowers.
We have studies of every kind,
And lessons that are fine, s,
And I know that, they all wish
To be a scholar here,
Where everything is dear,
But we don’t have to wish.
So we’ll all stay here I
In Chemawa dear
And always keep in mind
That in. all the west
This school is best
That you can ever find.
DOMESTIC ART NOTES
Yeo, Ho! Who is it? Just we Juniors. 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.
