Show TICKETS READY Bandantix! Bandantix! tickets for the Bandantix! Hear ye, hear ye, students! You must, can and will sell them! It is for you that the city is sponsoring this affair; it is to buy new instruments for the band. Do you think this does not mean you? It does, Ogden High school's band is indeed representative of our student body no matter where they play, and without proper instrumentation Ogden High would be rather poorly represented. Do your part! Sell your tickets, and help put the Bandantix over one hundred per cent. — Kathyrn McGowan. CHIT CHAT Whose ring with the initials E. L. R. could K. P. have? What's happened to our E. R. and P. L. team? Is it M. H. or H. W. on your book E. J.? Where are those "peace disturbers" that usually ride by school at noon? Make up your mind Ab. Don't keep the girls in suspense so long! Since our grades were recorded yesterday, please remember your high school days dear fathers, and take pity on us!—Peeking Tom. PEP OFFICERS The recently organized Pep club elected officers Friday as follows: President, Rught Goddard; Vice President, Marge Boyle; and Secre¬tary, Jessie Higgins. With such an excellent choice of leaders the Pep club should soar to great heights. Make the best of it, girfc; the stu¬dent body is in back of you! After much discussion as to what name the newly organized Pep club should have, a decision was finally reached. There was much debate pro and con as to whether the club should be named "Pep Sponsors of Ogden High" or "Pep Club of Ogden High." The letter name was finally chosen. In the future the organiza¬tion will be recognized by this title. —Kathryn McGowan. PERFECT MARK Mr. Hancock's sixth period sociology class is pleased to an¬nounce a 100 per cent attendance of pupils who have taken up the study of this vast human race with an enthusiasm which can hardly be equaled. The general attitude of complete absorption in the subject being discussed is pleasing to notice and gives one an over-powering de¬sire to be a part of the group of people studying this inspiring sub¬ject. The class has just completed the election of officers for the coming term. The new officers are: namely, Burton Barrows, president, Dean Williams, vice president, Ruth White, secretary and treasurer, and Arie Hart reporter. We wish, too, to ex¬press. our sincere appreciation for the gratifying efforts of our former president, Verna Ochs, and her sup¬porting officers.

STUDENTS HAVE MOCK FUNERAL ON CAR TRACKS "Box Elder Bee Is Dead" Declares Leader At Ceremonies OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen. Associate Editor. To quote the words of President Baxter, "the Box Elder Bee is dead!" With impressive ceremony and due respect the Ogden High student body Thursday paid final tribute to the hardy hive of Box Elder Bees that has so often stung the Ogden Tiger. A long funeral procession consisting of the remains of the Brigham football team and mourn¬ers wound its way through the busi-ness section of Ogden. As this sad line of march reached the center of the city, the remains of the Bees were burned on the street car tracks amid cheers of spectators. In other words, a gigantic foot¬ball rally was held by the cheering fans of Ogden High school before the big game with Box Elder. LETTER TO TEACHER Dear Teacher: I am writing this slightly belated letter to explain in part why I have not my English notebook in condition for remittance. When I was in the ninth grade, I took a course in ancient history and being then, as now, a very diligent scholar, I carefully studied the course, learning it well. I was in¬trigued by the mystery of Egypt's earlier history and wondered from where it had been procured. Event¬ually I learned that for certain writings and hieroglyphics which had been left to the world, we now know the Egyptian home life so well. A modern philosopher tells us "That which is written lives, but that which is remembered dies." Of course you will be able to see why I quote from the noble, Mark Antony's speech at the assassina¬tion of Julius Caesar, "The evil men do lives after them, but the good is oft interred with their bones" for, if I cannot have the good that I do live after me, I most assuredly do not want my evil, in the form of my writings, to outlive me, and anyhow, who knows when an auto or truck will extinguish the feeble spark? The great Emperor Napoleon was thought by all to be a very brusque fierce man, one who wouldn't let a mere woman influence his life. If he had been more careful and destroyed all his letters and writings, we at present would not have a book of the love letters of Napoleon to the Empress Josephine. This book shows the little known side of the great man, the side which in my estimation tarnishes the glitter of his life. In any court of law today those letters would procure much money for Josephine. I could cite numerous other ex¬amples demonstrating my point but, the most practical reason is this: Of all the teachers who have asked one to keep a notebook, you are the first one to ask for its remittance. These reasons, combined with the fact that I have had all my work ready on time and a good deal of it checked and recorded, justify me to entreat you to use clemency in my behalf. The fact that I could have easily made up the missing work while I was writing this letter doesn't even enter my mind.— X. Y. Z. FLEDGES Thursday was an immemorial day for several juniors, for bids to vari¬ous clubs were distributed. The fortunate ones were beaming with happiness, unable to suppress their emotions Others might have been slightly disappointed, but controlled their feelings well, being good sports. The seniors know from experience the heartache of not receiving an invitation to join an organization, but they know too that such a dis¬appointment is no reflection on the individual. Club membership is so limited that a very difficult situa¬tion always arises when just a few must be chosen, since eligible stu-dents, those who are charming well-liked, or talented are very numerous. Sincerest congratulations are ex¬tended to the new pledges, and a reminder t0 the others that they still have two more chances. 14 |
