Indian School Smokestack

The brick smokestack stands alone where at one time it was attached to the power house that made steam heat which heated the buildings at the Indian Industrial School through underground tunnels. Electricity was also produced in this building.


This stack again reminds us of the total self sufficiency of this school in the way they produced their own central heat source and their own electricity.
