THE CHEMAWA AMERICAN
"JACK" WRITES A LETTER.
Under date of Jan. 22, 1910, the fol
lowing letter was received at this office
from John McCush, a former student of
Chemawa and an apprentice in our
printing office, and who is now employ
ed with the Advance Publishing Co., of
Fortuna, Calif:
As I am not doing anything this after
noon the thought came to me that
owed you a letter and I concluded I
would write you these few lines to let
you and the printer boys know that I
am still on the map of the living.
I am still in the printing business and
expect to be for some time yH. I work
only a short distance from Eurek;i,
where Robt. Cameron is engaged in the
printing department of the Eureka Htr
ald. We see one another occasional and
talk over old Chemawa days.
I have a steady job now operating
a linotypp machine for the Fortuna Ad
vance a weekly edition. I receive a
copy of the Chemawa American each
week and it seems just like a letter from
home to me. I read every word of it
and I wish to congratulate the printers
on their splendid work in the basket
ball tournament. I will now close with
best wishes for yourself and the printer
boys.
John E. McCush.

never mind him.

A HIGH TRIBUTE TO OREGON
CLIMATE
(Henry T. Fink in Scribnei's
Magazine for February.)
The climate does it a great cli
mate! I was in Oregon seventy
one days last Summer, and if I
could have regulated the ther
mometer to suit myself I should
not have touched it three times!
A night's sleep in Oregon is
worth a week's vacation in the
East.
