GIRLS F1ROM CHEMAWA SCHOOL
WIN CONTEST OVER WHITE
TEAMS OF.FOUR OTHER STATES
There are some "real live Indians" out
in Oregon. They are entering the club work
with as much enthusiasm as their paler faced
sisters in any part of the country. In fact,
the Indian girls from Chemawa school beat
all the other club girls in a three-day call
ming contest at the Manufacturers and
Land Products Show at Portland last win
ter. They not only won the first prize Of
fifty dollars for team work against several
other Girl club teams Of the Northwest, but
thew carried off several hundred dollars
worth of prizes of greater or less utility
value that were given by Portland firms FOR
individual work in canning.
The Chemawa girls had been entered in
the state fair club contests earlier in the
wear and had come out second. They were
not the girls to be dOwncast by beating,
however, even if there was but one team that
was better than they, and they worked even
harder to get ready for the big contest at
Portland. At this contest they again com
peted, against the champion team from the
Pleasant Home High School in Lane county
During the three days contest, salmon,
beets. green's grapes, cauliflower and nearly
everything else that is canned in this age
of putting everything into the can that
grows in the garden, or on four feet on the
farm.
These contests were held under the aus

lege, and is part of the regular club ac-

Both of these boys are on the dairy de-
tail and the fact, that they were successful
competitors is; a source of much satisfac-
ton to all, not only to those at Haskell IN
terested in Indian progress but to thinking
men and women everywhere. A few years
ago since the idea of an Indian boy being
interested in a contest of this kind would
have been cause for much comment.
We who are in the work today know how
the average Indian in school is trying to
make headway-he is earnest, sensible and
industrious it. is only in events OF this
kind that we are enabled to bring the re-
suits of his efforts -forcibly to
the minds of the people-Indian Leader,

Jim Inkinish, an educated CaddO Indian,
living seven miles north of Alfalfa, on Copp

bushels of corn to the acre on 80 acres OF

His son Joe, a member of the Caddo
County Boys Corn club, who has not yet
gathered his crop, has an acre that villa
produce between 80 and 100 bushels. Joe
is attending school at Colony, Oklohoma,
now. He likes the farm life and will make
one of Caddo county's future successful
farmers, as he intends bringing his educa-
ton back to the farm. he will enter the
corn club contest next year, and by fertn-
izing his land, hopes to make much larger

WASHINGTON, Aug. oT--PlanS for
adjournment of congress next Friday
are not maturing as rapidly nor as GER

Yesterday when President Wilson's S
visit to the capitol to talk over plans

develops in the meantime 10 alter the
situation.

on the emergency revenue bill and

amendments. Senator Underwood,
whose revolt against the income tax
provisions was defeated yesterday will
make another protest against the pro-
posed increased tariffs on dyestuffs.
