High school the first game to be played to- j morrow afternoon at Ogden on i the Seventh street courts. The second will be played one day next week at Salt Lake. Harry Thompson, Ralph Pugmire,' Fred Carr and Gilbert Beck . will represent the high school. These boys also play East High t. at Salt Lake on Friday of, this . week. , GOOD ROADS ESSAYS William Galbraith and D'Orr Cozzens have entered essays on the subject, "Economies Resulting , From Highway Improvement," in the national contest sponsored' by . the H. S. Firestone company. 1 GREAT PARADE '! Ogden people, as well as strang- ers within" our gates, marveled on i Friday at the surprisingly large j number, of boys in Ogden. No one! '; would believe it except him who j sees with his own eyes. The bril- j j liancy occasioned by the vari-eol- j i ored caps and distinctive costumes t added an element of interest and 1 beauty. The high school feels ! proud, not only of the cadets, who j 'always secure high compliments but for the boys not in the R. O. T. C. who made a better showing than ever before. COMPLIMENT A city principal called us up j this morning to say he saw the Salt Lake parade on Saturday and that from the R. O. T. C. stand­point at least our boys made a very much better showing than did' the Salt Lake boys. Thanks! LOOKING AHEAD The near approach ot' school closing draws attention to the fact, that the vast army of boys that we saw Friday and quite as many girls will be turned loose on the twenty-ninth day of May for more ! than three months. What are they all going to do during the three , months? Attention has recently' been called by several of the women's clubs to the fact that Ogden has practically no program for all these boys and girls dur­ing the summer. They are literal­ly turned loose. A vast majority perhaps has nothing to do. Any­one who thinks that children can be turned loose without guide or help or aid of any sort for three j long months is certainly short- ! sighted and lacking ideas of what an educational program should be. Children need guidance and di­rection for 12 months of the year, not nine only. LEFT UNPREPARED If these young people had some sort of home employment or work to do outside of the home for at' least a few hours a day, some duties or responsibilities, the con­dition wouldn't be so bad, but they haven't. And that's the pity of it. Our modern life of­fers little work and few respon­sibilities for youth, and yet ex­pects them when manhood and womanhood come to go out in the world and take up their work and ' their duties. They naturally are unprepared and unfitted. The matter of furnishing employment for young people during summer months should receive the careful consideration of public spirited citizens. Another problem that they might wrestle with is the providing of suitable instructors to direct children's play. Ogden is noticeably behind in the matter of children's playgrounds and di­rectors of children's play. FORWARD STEP In our opinion Ogden has an opportunity to initiate something here that would be really distinc­tive, educational and progressive. Why not employ a good sized corps of best instructors obtain­able and have summer sessions of , school for all children below the ' Junior High school grade. We belieye that sooner or later all cities will come to this, as it is absolutely useless and harmful for young children to be turned loose to run the streets for several months of the year with nothing to do. With school and play for 1 the elementary school children and remunerative, worthwhile 1 employment for all high school 1 students, junior and senior, we would have a real educational J ; program. "CORKS AND CURLS" The high school received today the vear book of the University of Virginia, "Corks and Curls," through the courtesy of P. An­drew Beck, a former student of the high school, who is now at­tending that institution and is do­ing very fine work. WASTING TIME Wasting- time is on thing that many people do particularly well. This prevalent random waste of time may be compared to the in­calculable quantities of precious ' water that the heedless crowds annually cast upon unappreciative waves of the seas. - There are three distinct classes of time wasters-"knights of the road," the "lounge lizards" and the "loafing workers." The first of these to be considered is the "knight of the road"-that harm- 1 less wanderer who at some time i in his youth swerved from the I straight path, and who is spend- ing the remainder of his ex- I istence aimlessly roving and hop- : ing that some bright day Fate ; will guide his feet back to that 1 path-does injury to no man ex- cept perhaps to himself; -therefore i i he is not to be taken seriously. Then there is the "lounge lizard," more commonly known as a "gentleman of leisure," who does absolutely nothing and who takes a lifetime to do it in. To a man j of this class time is merely a nail 5 I in one of the rungs of the ladder I of dissipation. It is obvious that this type of man is a worthless t burden upon humanity, but then i -they must be tolerated because ! they do not possess the moral courage that is essential in „the building and establishment of re- 1 sponsibility. t The next to be weighed in the t balance and to be found wanting y ! is the "loafing worker." By "loaf- e ing worker" we mean the man _ who works for two or three weeks ; then lays off until hunger and 3 necessity drive him back to work r : again. A mythical personage, Bill 5 , Jones, furnishes us with a char- 7 ' (tcter typical of this class of loaf- 3 ers who above all abhors work t in any sense of the word. Bill 1 Jones was idling down the .street one drowsy afternoon when he was accosted by an old friend. 7 "Hello, Bill!" called out Joe. "What's the matter? Can't you 1 find a job?" r "Sure, Joe," replied Bill dole- 3 fully, "I kind find plenty of jobs, " but me wife won't do 'em," t Of course there are numerous exceptions to each of these rules, but we are not dealing with ex­ceptions-we are Merely empha­sizing the characteristic worth- lessness of time-wasters in gen- " duane foutz. 5-5-25 Ogden High School Notes Tomorrow (Wednesday) at 9:30 o'clock all graduating students are asked to report at Central Junior promptly to take a test in English to be given by Supt. W. K. Hopkins'. They are to bring pen­cils and erasers only. ASSEMBLY FRIDAY President A. W. Tracy of Weber college will address the stu- j dents at assembly on Friday ! morning at 10:30 o'clock. OFFICERS' BANQUET I The annual officers' banquet of the R. O. T. C. will be given on Tuesday evening, May 12, at the Weber club. Major Harry Jordan will be present and will in­spect the unit Wednesday morn- : ing at 8:30 o'clock. DO NOT LEAVE SCHOOL Students are urged not to i eave school until the work of the ! 'ear is completed. Parents are 11 equested to make every sacrifice ' lecessary to keep students in un- il the work is finished. Noth- ; 1 ng is more unsatisfactory to a tudent than to leave a year's : J vork with ragged edges-incom- i J )lete. Naturally students cannot, j ' mder any conditions, be given I 1 rcdit for work that is not done; 1 j r hat would be unfair to them and ! 1 others; students, cannot do the j I vork by themselves; the oppor- c unity for doing the work will t icver be so satisfactory as right 1 low. . 1 .

REPORT OF TESTING The Ham And club conducted a test in the foothills, near the mouth of Taylor canyon, on Sun­day. The object of the test was j to establish two-way .communica- j tion between two transmitters and j receivers, j! I One station was operated by 11 Wyne Iverson and Milton Farber, i while the other was operated by ! Edgar Calder and Kenneth Rhead. ! The party met at the Calder home on Twenty-fourth street at 10 I a. m, ,and was under way by 10:30 : a. m.; Iverson and party leaving about 10:15 a. m. and the others at 10:30 a. m. The first attempt j at communication wras made at i 11 a. m., this being unsuccessful ! on account of Iverson's transmit - ! ter not radiating. After sotne j changes Iverson went on the air. I Calder's signals were fading so 1 that it was impossible to under­stand him. Shortly after noon a two-way communication was held for a short time .being lost by the grind of the utbe, and Cal­der's transmitter blocking. When he came back on the air he was unable to pick up Iverson's sig­nals. After some more tests Calder and Iverson decided to continue the test at a later time when more stable transmitters could be made. The music was furnished by Mr. Smith and news items by Mr. Warner Cross for the tests. Mr. Smith can sing if you want to know it. GOOD ROADS ESSAY Miss Violet Dout is offering ar essay in "The Economies Result­ing From Highway Improvement' in the national Firestone contest THE NEW EDUCATION The new and the true education i in America is in developing "right j attitudes," not in acquiring facts I or information. The teacher's task J is to teach youth how to think j straight and to feel right. To ob- ! jectify himself, as it were, in the j language of Dr. Snoddy so that' he ! shall see himself not as a very important individual with certain i rights and material acquisitions, j but as a member of a very im- , portant social organization with certain privileges and opportuni- j ties. It is not his aim to achieve I fame, renown, homage, but to render service to humanity; to i appreciate that he is one of count- ! less millions striving to make a happier and a better world. He is not to feel that every man's hand is against him, but that his hand is out to help, to encourage, to inspire every man to nobler effort and more heroic achieve­ment. He is a cog in the great wheel of life and unless he learns to do and to enjoy the plain and simple duties that to him' day by day, his learning and his education are hopeless and vain..

Readings of that sort are a little education by themselves. Utah owes a big debt of gratitude lo this wonder­ful woman for the- great work she has done in this state. The tea-less tea Will be given by the girls and Women faculty members at the high school on Saturday afternoon. We hope that every girl in school and every girl's mother will participate in this event. PARENTS' DAY Parents' day-exhibition day- will be held on Friday, May 22. The plan of the day's activities will be much the same as last year. Parents will be welcomed at regular class work during the morning and a special program will be given at 2:15 o'clock. A fashion show staged by the do­mestic art department will be a , feature of this program. Parents will visit the exhibits, meet the teachers, and partake of refresh­ments from 3 until 5 o'clock. At 8 o'clock in the evening the girls' physical education department, i under the direction of Miss Grace Stone, will stage a pageant. Much music-our very best-will be pro- jvided during the _ afternoon and j evening. MUSIC WEEK )' Every week is music week at the high school, but, of course, , we are doing a little extra this week on account of National Music week. On Tuesday a group of eight students furnished music for the Exchange club-the finest, they say, the club has ever had. This afternoon we join the other schools of the city in a grand musical festival at Lester park. ENTERTAIN SENIORS' On the evening of May 27, after , commencement exercises, the high school faculty will entertain the graduates and their parents at the Berthana.
