made many friends while at Chemawa
and by his care of the sick endeared
himself to all who had aches or pains.
As one of the pupils remarked, "things
are certainly doing at Chemawa this
winter." The student body never were
more contented Basketball and kindred
sports have served to fill in the lime not
employed at work or school. The In

gress; the academic department reports
that the advancement of the pupils in
their studies is g nerally marked and in
every direction good will and fellow
ship seems to prevail.
