Show mote cities. The entertainment offered, however, was very satisfactory and those who attended expressed their appreciation of the fine work the lads are doing. We ail say, "Ham And" is all right. Success to you boys. OUR SCHOOL. It appears from Thursday's : election that our school shall be next year "Ure school" with James j as president and Marian as vice 'president. It is seldom that any, j family is so highly honored as I was Ure family Thursday. It evidences, however, the esteem in which James and Marian are held by the students and we bespeak for them the unstinted support of the student body. We congratulate them on their election and wish them a successful administration. We opine that they will find it convenient to meet together often to plan and devise ways and means of improving student body activities. To Herbert Verheek, the new secretary, belongs the duty of keeping a good record of student affairs, and we congratulate him, too, on the honor and wish him all kinds of success in his work. OUR AIM. Our aim, as we have said before, in publishing daily "school notes," is to take ,the public into our confidence, and to let them know what we are doing and what we are trying to do to the end that we may obtain more and more their co-operation in this grieat enterprise-the biggest business on earth-the public school. -From the number of people who i are telling us daily that they are i reading and enjoying the school I notes column, we feel that we must be sucoeeding, at least in a measure in our aim. As an ultimate goal, may we suggest that we hope, some day,' to have parents so realize their responsibilities and duties in this enterprise that they will gladly visit the school at least twice a year and to give us the encouragement and aid that they alone can give. We trust that some day every parent will follow his child step by step and problem by problem in all his studies and all his activities. In that day every school 'will have become another home and every home another school. Will not that be grand and glorious? ENTHUSOGRAMS. Perhaps you have not heard that word bfefore. Whether you have or not we dare say you can guess what it means-a sentence- a thought-given with the idea of encouraging, helping. A number of schools have the practice of sending out enthusograms with especially good terrp.' reports such as we sent out yesterday. We think the idea a good one. We should like to adopt the custom. For instance, if sentiments like these could be sent regarding .the work and charcater of many of our pupils we think it Would be at least encouraging. "Frank showb a fine respect for the teachers and a thoughtful consideration for the rights of fellow pupils." "Mary can take a situation, analyze it, weight the evidence, make inferences, and form an intelligent opinion." "Gertrude is alert, -rettre-'md always ready to contribute in'fGTT measure toward class productivity." "Jack understands and appreciates the principles of civic education and magnifies them through an enthusiastic co-operation in all school activities." "We are pleased to report' to you that Henry is living at school each day a life, -the elements of which must surely build a fine, i desirable citizen for tomorrow." j WouJjj. not such sentiments as these bring pleasure to parents and satisfaction to students? j We are. very certain that such i sentiments as these might well go i to the homes of many patrons j for the boys and girls of the Ogden High school are doing eom- ; mendable work. Ogdenites Negotiate 78 Points; Davis High Tallies 28 O GDEN HIGH SCHOOL, tracksters had little difficulty in I iiefeating the Davis High school athletes in an early season meet § at Kaysville Friday, the score sheet showing the Tigers on the long end J of a 76 to 28 score when the relay J. had been staged. Ogden took the g lead from the outset and was never headed. A heavy wind and threatening clouds made good marks out of a the question. Burton of Davis was s the high point man of the meet t with 13 tallies. He won first place t in the 440- and 880-yard runs and r was second in the century. t This chap Burton looms as one of the best middle-distance men that has been uncovered in years in this section. He runs freely, has r developed a fine stride and beauti- t :ful form and should be heard from s in the state meet. He is the iron t man of the Davis aggregation. g TAKES TWO FIRSTS. Budge for Ogden won first place j in the two sprints, winning hand- ily. He trotted over the century in 1 10:2, which is fine time for early season work. He was also an easy winner in the furlong. "Red" Wade took part in the mile and finished a close second i to Johnson, who obtained a lead t of more than 40 yards which Wade J was unable to overcome. Johnson i ran a nice race and looks like a ! good performer. "Red" Cox grabbed points for Ogden in the shot-put. and discus. This chap heaved the platter 110 feet 11 inches, the severe cold spell and the high wind effecting his work. Ogden had little trouble in stepping to the front in the relay. In this event the Tigers won by mora than 50 yards, 'j Ogden made a clean sweep in ! the pole vault, discus and shot-put i events. , Burton displayed class galore in winning the half mile in 2:09, considering the fact that a heavy wand was bucked practically the entire distance. ENTER CARNIVAL. Ogden will compete in the B. Y. U relay carnival next Saturday at Prnvn and will attempt .to arrange another meet with one of the strong teams of the state before the Ogden division meet is held, j On paper the Tigers appear to have a well-balanced, strong aggregation and should be heard from. Coach Dixon Kapple is pleased with the work of his men Friday and hopes for a state title. The summary: TRACK EVENTS. 100-yard dash-Won by BudgeOgden; Burton, Davis, second; Morrison, Ogden. third.

The second list requires 90 per cent of G's (B's) with no mark lower than an M (or C), no incompletes or failures during four high -school years. AT COMMENCEMENT.

The tentative dates are Sunday, May 24, and Wednesday, May 27. Jake Reynolds has been selected as valedictorian of the class and Erica Berne as salutatorian.

Arrangements are well under way for the great annual boys' parade to be held on Friday afternoon, May 1, at 2 o'clock. School ' will close at 1:30 o'clock. The R. O. T. C., led by the and, will head , the parade. The non-R. O. T. C. boys of the high school will form the second section of the parade. At a meeting of this group on Fri- i- day last, a uniform costume was adopted and the following chosen 1 as officers for the occasion: As captain, Paul McCune; as lieuten- 1 ants, Dorvyl Peterson, Louis Con- roy, Dan Kennedy, Leland Mc- Clean and Ralph Gunderson. We are confident the high school will put over a better parade than ever before. PROM A SUCCESS. The prom on Friday night was a huge success, surpassing perhaps any former function of its kind. The decorations and programs were very unique, and the crowd was just rigiu. A wee hit crowded, perhaps, and yet everyone seemed to have tne best kind of a time. The grand march, at 9 o'clock, directed by Miss Stone and led by Gerrard Sampson and Eunice Da- ( vis, Frank Mouritzsen and Erica Berne, was most beautiful. Great credit is due Class President Ger- i rard Sampson and Prom Managers Ralph Pugmire and Bill Gunnell I and their committees and class ad- visors, Mrs. Florence H. Newcomb J and E. S. Smith, for this most suc- ; cessful and unique party. A good- ' ly number of out-of-town, people, ' notably from Salt Lake, alumni, parents and friefids favored us greatly by their presence. RELAY BANNERS. The O. H. S. displays with pride today two championship banners for relay races won at Provo on Saturday and awarded to Ogden by the B. Y. university. The banners are in university colors, blue and white. The races were the 880- yard relay and the medley relay. MILLS CHOSEN. On Saturday last the chairman of Boys' parade for Friday, G. L. Becker, expressed a wish to have , a good looking girl ride a horse in the parade and carry the flag, he was asked to look over the office girls, Misses Atkinson and Mills, and declared at once that from the "looks" standpoint either would fill the bill admirably. When Miss Mills blushingly admitted that she could ride a horse she was immediately drafted to the service. INSPECTION DAY. Wednesday, May 13, has been i designated as R. O. T. C. inspection day. Major Jordan will be here. Captain Docker has decided that the contest for the Kanzler cup will be a part of the exercises. TYPING AWARDS.
