JUDGE CAREY REVIEW S
HISTORY OF NORTHWEST
Judge Carey Is A Prominent Oregon
Attorney And Historian
Miss Virginia Wolf, one of the student
leaders elected by the girls to act as chapel
chairm an, introduced the speaker, Judge
Carey, from Portland, last Sunday even­
ing. Besides interest in law Judge
•Carey has for-his hobby, history, espe­
cially the history to the great northwest.
He gave his audience a birdseye view
of the old Oregon territory. Among the
things he told was the story of the Ameri­
can acquisition of this old Oregon
territory.
It is interesting to know that Captain
G ray was the first white man to sail as
far north as what is now Oregon and it
w asn’t until two hundred years later that
other daring, sailors reached the n o rth ­
western coast.
-
President Jefferson realized the value
rof the great Oregon territory so he a r ­
ranged for an expedition, . headed by
Lewis and Clark, to be sent into this Ore­
gon territory by lan d . They made friends
with the different tribes of Indians and
were fortunate in having for their guide
a Shoshone Indian, Sacajawea, who was
very helpful in guiding these explorers
through the great Oregon Country.
Because his time was limited Judge
Carey was able to give the audience only
high lights of the Northwest.

SUPT. PAUL T. JACKSON ADDRESSES
SALEM CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Chemawa is still solvent despite its
recent recessions and its possibilities for
training Indian youth seems assured at
present but it will pay Salem people who
are interested in its welfare to make their
interest an active one, Supt. Jackson told
the Salem Chamber of Commerce at their
luncheon Monday.
Mr. Jackson cited Several instances and
proved that there was a need for such a
school in the Northwest for Indian boys
and girls, who would be benefited by an
industrial education as Chemawa now
provides.
The Indian has native manual skill
and the government is now providing
education in various trades to the Indian
youth unhampered by traditional curric­
ular requirements of other high schools,
Mr. Jackson said.
The program included a concrete dem­
onstration o f the Indian’s ability to
benefit by musical training. The school
orchestra, directed by Mr. R uthyn T u r­
ney played several numbers and vocal
solos were presented by H enry' Sijohn
and Francis Thomas. Several girls were
guests at the luncheon and were intro­
duced.
Give to the world the best you have
and the best will come back to you.
LYCEUM PROGRAM IS
ENTERTAINING TO ALL
Four Act Play, “ New Brooms/’
Is Featured
For the pleasure and benefit of the
students of Chemawa, a, lyceum play,
“ New Broom s,” was held in the audi­
torium op Friday, November 7, It was
thoroughly enjoyed by everyone present.
Mr. Bates, Mr. Niland, Miss Marsh, Mr.
Simpson, Miss Wheeler, and Mrs. Dause
were the characters in the performance.
“ New Brooms,” portrayed a story in
which Mr. Bates was a very grouchy
man with a son, Thomas, who was just
the opposite. Fvery time Mrs. Dause,
the charity woman, appeared, everyone
in the audience laughed because she was
such a comical person. Much to the sur­
prise of the audience, -as the play
progressed, Tom and his father changed
characters for Tom became grouchy and
his father became pleasant.'
The play as a whole was very interest­
ing and somewhat romantic.
The
characters all portrayed their roles in a
very entertaining manner. More pro­
grams like “ New Brooms” will be of
benefit to the Chemawa students who all
considered the performance worthwhile.
