~ NE of the queerest newspapers
in the world is the "Kamloops
Wawa," a journal printed in
shorthand by a tribe of Indians who
live in the interior Of British Columbia.
1t was established through the efforts
of a French missionary, LIE Jeune by
name. who came to the Fraser River
district of British Columbia few years
ago. He found the natives superst!-
tious, ignorant and unable to write
their language. He soon learned the
Indian vocabulary and then began TO
write by means Of shorthand signs
which represented all the sounds the
Indians use in prOnouncing the words.
LIE Jeune first explained his system
to an intelligent Indian lad who lived
in the central village. The boy took to
It intuitively. In a few months he had
thoroughly learned the art Of writing
his language in shorthand, and began
to teach his friends. The new talk

and the Indians, young and old, were
seen engaged in practieing this strange
method of communication.
After about 500 had mastered the
system, various parts of the Bible We're
translated by the missionary, and. final
ly, the "Kamloops Wawa" was started.
The paper was printed on mimeo
graph for the first year, but after that
LIE Jeune succeeded in having type
made and it is now printed on a press
in the nearest city. 1t has sixteen
pages and contains all the news of the
tribe, and of the church that the mis-
sionary has built up in the main viii
lage. over 1000 Indians have learned
to read. 1t is a very interesting sight
to look into one of the Chinook wig
vans, where the women still use stone
implements to prepare their clothing of
deerskin. and see the family grouped
about eagerly reading the latest num-
Der of the "Kamloops Wawa."
