THANKSGIVING DAY
AT CHEMAWA.
Services were held at 10 A. M., Supt.
Chalcraft presiding. The Chapel was
beautifully decorated with evergreens,
fruits, vegetables, flowers and grains
The meeting opened with a song and
prayer by the school.
Assistant Supt. Campbell read Governor
Jt hn P Gains' first Thanksgiving pro
clamation for the Territory of Oregon.
The following employes and students
spoke, giving reasons why they were
thankful and why all should be thank
ful for the many blessings that are daily
received: Mr. Woods, Mr. Mann, Mr. En
right, Dr. Lieurance, Mrs. Campbell, Mis.
Smith, Miss Earlougher and Miss White.
Walter Haight represented the Y.M.C.A.
and Ella Brewer the Y.W.C. A. Asst. Supt.
Campbell gave some interesting remarks.
The doxology hymn -was sung and the
watch ward repeated by the school.
At noon the students Kit down to a
splendid turkey dinner. The various
employes, from Superintendent Chalcraft
down, took an interest in the young
people's feast and acted as carvers of
turkey and Waiters and seemed to take
about as much interest in the dinner as
the students themselves. The feast was
bounteous in every respect and the
decorations were splendid. The dinner
was a fit Delmonico banquet and reflected
credit on everybody concerned in its
preparation, and the entire school.
Following is the menu: Roast Ore
gon turkey with cranberry sauce, giblet
gravy, sweet cucumber pickles, spiced
prune pickles, pickled beets, mashed po
tatoes, creamed cabbage, baked squash,
mince pie, pumpkin pie, fruit cake, ap
ple jelly, pear preserves, apples, bread,
butter, coffee and crackers.
After the students had finished their
dinner the employes repaired to their
various quarters to partake of splendid
repasts. At the "Mess" the dining room
was most tastefully decorated and a
splendid turkey dinner was served in
courses. Nothing could have been nicer
or more appropriate to the occasion.
The members of the "Mess" certainly
have cause to thank those whose taste,
care and skill made possible such a mem
orable occasion.
CHEMAWA VS. CATHOLIC YOUNG
MEN'S CLUB OF PORTLAND.
The Thanksgiving Day game added
another to the string of Chemawa's
victories. The final score being 6 to 0,
in our favor. The touch-down was made
in the middle of the second half. The
first half was played mostly in theCluh
men's territory, but atone time they had
our boys going and our goal in danger.
Both teams used line bucking. Our
boys gained some ground during the
half by means of on-side kicks and with
the use of the forward pass and trick pass.
The second half was considerable of
a punting game; both sides resorting
thereto. Graham out-punted Crowly of
