Watson of California, will speak upon "Liquid Air" and will demonstrate. FIRST IN AMERICA Ogden has received word that "Yeomen of the Guard" has never ' been presented before an American audience. This is not due to lack of popularity or worthiness of the 3 opera, but to the fact that heavy ( royalties have heretofore prohibit- ed presentation. Ogden High school will give the opera April 21 and 22. j COMING ARTISTS Among the promising sign paint- ;e ers of Ogden High we may mention this year Bill Zuppann and Lee Park- s inson. These boys have put out % much creditable works during the year. You will rarely meet better j painted "ads" than these lads put out. j INTERESTING MEETING A very interesting meeting was held by the teachers of the commer- cial department Tuesday afternoon. 1 The purpose of the meeting was to 1 consider ways and means of improv- ing the teaching of commercial sub- i jects in the high school. 1 ROYAL ECCLES Royal Eccles gave a very interesting talk on European travels, manners and customs before the Spanish club on Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Eccles also contributed some interest-1 ing facts to the club. tent on getting some whispered conversation, I sometimes hear a few things that are happening. I will have to apologize to the persons who have not made their names I clear enough to me so I can write them down here. If these people will j let me know I will gladly fix it up. Here are a few of the "noms des plumes" that I happen to know: " Burp, Max Bunt; M. P. Mary Paquette; Puddle, Weeter Pond; Just! ' Me, unknown; Furious Kay, Kay Hitt; Henby, Clyde Chambers, "R" Roy Ross; B. T., unknown; He who snoops to conquer, Fred Green well; Sec., Wendell Fowler; Emerson Huff Max Burt; Larvey, Larry; Lady at , the keyhole, unknown; Prince Willy : Nilly, unknown; Two Little Girls in Blue, Fern Larsen (Juste Moi). REGULAR COUNCIL Regular council meeting was called to order by President Anderson; the roll was called, the minutes were read and approved. Roy Ross gave a complete financial report of the school play. The report was accepted and filed with the secretary. Carpe Diem was granted permission to hold a party this week-end. Bernice Lindquist gave a complete financial report of the girls' carnival. The report was accepted and filed with the secretary. Mr. Gaisford was asked to have a report of the smokeless smoker for next meeting. It was moved and carried that the flag be ordered and ways devised later for the raising of the remaining amount due. Mr. Smith, the advisor, announced the opera to be held Friday and WONDERFUL COACH Ogden High school seems to have a great number of exceptional students this year. One more is now added in the person of William Mc- Ewan, a senior. William worked for seven long months on a model of a Napoleonic coach to enter the Fisher Body competition. The result was perfect, for it gained for him two first prizes for paintcraft and trimcraft (and two second prizes for woodcraft ;and metalcraft. ; Each tiny wooden part was carved out separately and each small metal decoration was separately cast and then soldered together. He made ach tiny nut and bolt and band. There are little straps and buckles, jDhe smallest imaginable; the glass in the windows can be raised and lowered; the steps fold up under the carriage; all in perfect working order. Even the colors are perfect. The coach is a medley of Chinese red, gold, blue and black. The interior is upholstered with white plush and embroidered with gold. Every detail is complete. The coach has springs, steps for the coachman and footmen, and tiny hand straps inside. 1 can't think of enough adjectives to suitably describe it so I shall simply say: It is absolutely marvelous!

Mr. Riley announced the Weber college play to be presented ' April 19, 20 and 21. The play, "Arms and the Man," by George Bernard Shaw, has an excellent cast and should prove enjoyable. Mr. Owen Bingham, a polished singer and an entrant in the last Atwater-Kent contest, sang an entertaining number. After Grant Goddard, president of the senior class, had made an announcement concerning the class pins and rings, Professor Boyle of Brigham Young university acquainted us with much of college life. Dr. Hales, also of the B.Y.U. gave a very interesting talk on higher edu- cation. After being reminded of the dele gation meeting the assembly adjourned. JUNIOR CLASS MEETING A junior class meeting was held Tuesday after school for the express purpose of preparing for the coming junior prom. President Grant Jensen called the meeting to order and as there was no old business we at once turned to the order of the day. It was decided that the theme to be carried out in decorating the Berthana would be "spring." Committees were ap pointed to take care of decorations, invitations, programs and advertising. It was decided that the dance should uphold the old traditions and be formal. The price was set within the reach of everyone at seventy- five cents a couple or forty-five cents for stags. The meeting was then adjourned. -Jack Bennett. RAMBLING Lazy days-we wonder. Spring vacations are enervating little pastimes. Enjoyable anyway. Cold weather coming round. Hailstones, thunder, 'n everything. Bit of lightning, too. Our debaters saw Davis yesterday. These red heads. And student body officers coming up. Tritely put-may the best man win. Say, this air is nippy. Lessons are not so stiff as we've seen them. Teachers are only human. Spring affects everyone and everything- even love. (Never heard that be-: fore?) "When in spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts . . ." We guess we'll eat our lunch. (Somebody's getting gypped! That "we" is an innovation from B.T.) And by the way, we haven't heard from B. T. for quite a while. S'matter, Pop?-Nosey. LOS LORITOS 1 What is so fair as a day in Spain? 1 Well, we coluldn't go, but we did YOUR NAME PLEASE Believe it or not, one of the most difficult tasks of the high school office is to get the correct names of students. We get along all right with Jim, and Harry, and Bo and Bugs, Toots and Sis and Jane, and Bess, until about graduating time and then when our real names are to be inscribed on our diplomas, no one knows just what they are, and for some unknown reason we are reluctant about divulging our real names. We offer at this time two suggestions. (1) All seniors who expect to graduate this year notify the office at once what their surnames are, what their given names are, and what their middle names are. (2) That all students entering junior high school give the above information to teachers enrolling them so that their real names may 1 appear on their high school records. This would save a lot- of trouble. next best. On Tuesday Royal Eccles took the members of Los Loritos on an imaginary trip to Spain. He very ably described the places he visited and the country generally. Also, Miss Helen Murphy gave a reading entitled "Penrod, Little Gentleman." We enjoyed the program immensely and wish all of you could have heard Mr. Eccles' splendid talk. Hasta Luego!-Reporter. BETTER REGISTRATION The most important event in the life of a high school student is to I decide at least tentatively, on whati he intends to do in life, and then1 select such subjects and courses of study as will help him along the road toward that objective. Frequently students fail to get the most out of high school simply because they do not realize what it is all about and get started wrong. To better qualify students for high school registration, a circular is being prepared to distribute among all junior students. This circular will give in some detail the various courses offered by high; school and the particular aim or aims of each course. It is hoped' that a careful study of this circular will help students to register, more intelligently than in the past |
