Kamloops Wawa, Issue 170

Kamloops, Nov. 15th, 1898: Beginning in January, LeJeune will keep the Bible History as separate supplement of 16 sheets because he claims Aboriginal people are having difficulty following the chronology of these articles in the Wawa. Focus will be on translating The Indian Catechism in shorthand and longhand versions of Chinook, Shuswap, English, Thompson, and Okanagan, but together on the same page. Editorial describes Magic Lantern used for the first time at the "Indian Church" in Kamloops. His account of the Aboriginal attendees reaction of astonishment when lamps were lit in the Church, quotes Aboriginal[s] as saying "O the White Man can do everything." Announcement of concert performance by the Industrial School Band with performance agenda and curious finale of "Club Swinging, band accompaniment." Holy House of Nazareth (includes illustrations of houses at Nazareth and map of the Mediterranean).
