ranged with Mrs. France and Mr. Farnsworth to address some 7500- odd letters to various interested in¬dividuals. The work is being done by the pupils in the typing classes. A very attractive poster is to be placed in each school. Let's buy Christmas seals, students! WELL, WELL! A charming, gay group of girls held an eventful hike on Staurday last. Inasmuch as Waterfall can¬yon was farther away than Taylor's canyon the bunch went to the for- I mer. My! What a time was had I by all. Poor Helen fell in the creek; it was cold. Roberta Hubbard and Afton McNeil became famous ice- sledders. (On what?) Dora Haw¬kins and Eloise Brewer proved themselves the biggest eaters. Mary Harrison didn't gez there on time and accordingly went up Taylor's canyon; she caught up with the rest though, on the way home. Anyway, i a great time was had by all—so why worry? "WE 13" The regular meeting of "We 13" was held last Thursday in room 303. It seems that the program commit- tee had been working on school w n-k instead of club assignments, so there was no program; however, the committee paid for it. The ju¬nior numbers voted in a group of other leading juniors as pledges. You'll hear from them too. Pins were definitely decided upon. Our progress is becoming more rapid as our membership increasees. OUR PLAY At last the date for "The Poor Nut" has been definitely decided. It is to be at Weber County High school Decmber 5 and 6. This year, the same as last year, the ju¬niors have their share in the cast. One of the juniors who has a very important part is Dorothy Knowlden. Dorothy as Julia keeps things "hot" and movinb by being a rival to Margie and engaged to Spike Hoyt at the same time. Spike Hoyt is also played by a junior, Tom O'Neil, who is indeed worthy of this portion. Dorothy and Tom received their first fame on the stage at Central last year, but that wasn't anything compared to what they are doing this year. No. 27-1929 Ogden High School News Ben Cartwright, Editor Pro Tem The noblest work of art the world has ever seen is the body the parfect man.—Emerson. DRUM STICKS Certain members of the faculty and student body have been seen to¬day with a queer demoniacal look in their eyes. The stricken ones walk absently about the school I building crunching their jaws, twitching their fingers and mutter- I ing to themselves such words as white meat, wings, stuffing, plum pudding and cranberry sauce. Upon ascertaining that their Con¬ditions were serious the leading phy¬sicians of the city were immediate¬ly obtained for a consultation. The doctors dubiously shook learned heads and hesitatingly announced that tomorrow was Thanksgiving, and that it was to be the day for the "Drum Stick Parade." The "Notes" suggests that every¬one "eat, drink and be merry," for Thanksgiving comes but once a year. THANKSGIVING I think of Thanksgiving as a time to be grateful not for the joys, the good things of the present, but fisr the wondrous power the Creator has given me of moulding my own path. The present—its chalice fill-ed to the grim with untold happi- I ness, beauty, myriad lovely dreams, yet intermingled with a few blind¬ing teais and a little darkness—is only the result of what I modeled long ago. Now the clay is dry with years, and the mold cannot be changed. Yet with my actions and thoughts of today I shape the fu- j ture. I stand at a threshold, tak¬ ing the gifts of life with fearless ! hands, yet praying that I may give them up again, sines out of love, comes every lovely thing. I am un- I utterably happy. I find new cour¬age fallen at my feet, a flaming feather from an angel's wing. At Thanksgiving I give thanks for the task He has given me.—I. L. INTER NOS CLUB The regular meeting of the Inter Nos Latin club was held Tuesday ; in room 301 at the usual time. Im- perator Morse presiding. After the ! regular order of business had been ! done away with, the order-of-the- day was taken up. The program consisted of topics given by the fol- I lowing members: Joe Foley, Char- j lene Scowcroft, Edwin Zimmerman, i Lorna Malan, Preston Mulcahy and Elaine Wilcox. The meeting then adjourned on a motion.—B. C. DO YOU KNOW THAT— Sergeant Halloway won two. "turks" at the American Legion shoot? Little Dave is going to take Maxine to the prom—hot stuff? Colonel Cunningham has ordered galoshes for his, 40 dogs? School starts Monday? FORUM Forum met Monday night to de¬bate our state debate question. Judging from our discussions, Forum can expect to monopolize most of the places on the school team this year. Students, you should look for- ward to our assembly this year, It's going to be a wow.—D. B. EQUAL REPRESENTATION A bill was put before Council yes¬terday in the form of an amend¬ment to our school constitution; it reads as follows: The membership of Council will comprise the student body officers, the senior and junior class officers, one representative of the clubs as a group, and one representative to every 30 members of the student body. The present class representa¬tives may remain for this year (1929-30) but on the next year and in the following years there will be no class representatives. CONGRESS "Resolved: That interscholastic and intercollegiate athletics are det¬rimental." No decision was given so we don't know whether they are or not. Leah Farr and Fern Hinch- defended the negative. Phyllis Fred- rickson and Maurine Israelson up¬held the affirmative. Three new members, Ruth Ames, Dorothy Nelson and Nathaniel Clay¬ton, were welcomed into the club. They are juniors and we're very proud oi them—Maurine Israelson, reportei. INITIATION Tau Ete Nu had initiation at Mona Forsha's on November 15. We were all there, including our advisor, Miss Evans. We initiated Elda Skinner, Annabelle Barker and Oer- tell Aadneson with the usual ini-tiation pranks. We then played bunco, Oertell won the head prize and Annabelle cut. A luncheon was served. Then we had cars to take all of the girls home—Mona Forsha. "THE POOR NUT" Have you seen the pictures of the cast of 'The Poor Nut" yet? If you haven't, keep your eyes on the va¬rious store windows in town where the pictures will soon appear. Three seniors (and all boys, too) who have principal parts in "The Poor Nut" are, Enoch Thorne, Hugh Ford and Dee Bramwell. Enoch, who is well known for many things besides his good looks, plays the part of Wallie Pierre. In this role he is the Poor Nut's ideal, and many unexpected things happen on ac-count of this. Hugh Ford, our saxophone player, does not play his saxaphone in the play but as Hub Smith lie displays his ability as an actor. Dee Bramwell, who is our famous yell leader, is also a yell leader in the play. Through his cleverness, his smallness and other arts, he keeps the audience in fits of laughter throughout the play. Remember the date, December 5 and 6 at Weber County High school. CHEERS FOR BAND Three cheers for the O. H. S. band are the replies that are com¬ing forth from many of the stu- lents of the high school. The ol' )and is getting back on its feet igain and it won't be long now ] intil some real classical music is joing to be heard. The band is in¬creasing every day in membership ] md quality. Colonel Cunningham compliment- 3d the band members the other day j tor the way they have been wear¬ing their uniforms. He also said that he would soon have to be using the band as an ideal for the rest' of the regiment. Mr. Hansen has been working very hard with the band. He is in hopes of entering the state contest this spring; he has also gotten the old fight into the fellows so that each j member is working for a bigger and better band. The gang is getting together tonight down to Keeley's. We're going to have a gay time down there enjoying a big turkey dinner.—Dale Read. JOIE FRANCAISE The meeting was called to order by President Stitzer. She appoint¬ed a committee of three, Marian Gimlin, Dorthea Varney and Ra¬chel Medoway to make arrange¬ments for a party to be given next month. Marian Gimlin was also elected scrap book editor. A report was given on the life of a play writer by Rachel Medoway. Lenora Ketchie was appointed to give the next report.—R. M. Mon. Dec. 2-1929 Ogden High School News (Ben Cartwright, Editor Pro-tem.) DAWN "Out of the scabbard of tlie night By God's hand drawn Flashes her shining sword of light, And lo—the dawn! ACTION How long is the present general attitude of the students in assem¬blies going to remain unchanged? We, the ones who wish to enjoy the programs, demand that a cure- all, a solution, be found to correct this ever-increasing evil. We maintain that a reform is up to the student body, to Council, to the faculty, and to each separate individual of the Ogden High school. Now is the time to solve this problem. Let us have immedi¬ate drastic action! THE NUT'S FROLIC! Late last night, between 11 and 12 o'clock, the cast of "The Poor Nut" gathered at KLO studio and raised a little whoopee. Professor Demming (Foss Heiner) filled the position of radio an¬nouncer. He certainly tossed a line into the mike. The program began with cheers and the song hit of the play, "On Wisconsin," given by the entire cast. Besides the members of the cast (whom we all know) the Boys' Glee club quartet, Paul Sugar, Dwayne Darling, Frank Grastiet, and Charlene Scowcroft, participat¬ed on the program. If you didn't listen in, that is ; your hard lu: :, but you will get an¬other chance on the 5th and 6th of December at Weber county high—a chance to see the best play ever sponsored by O. H. S.—ask Miss Stohl. I-WANNAN O MEETING The meeting was called to order at Don Bowman's home with Max¬imo Wannan—O Deegan presiding. As usual Henry had to make four or five long-wirued speeches.

Q OLD MEMORIES In 1909 and 1910 the principal of; the O. H. S. was Mr. Cross, now su- _ perintendent of the Santa Rosa ] j] schools. He visited the old Tiger lair last Wednesday and was joy- b fully received by Mrs. Newcomb and Mr. Beeson. BETA ZETA TAU Last Saturday night we held our ! initiation at Madeline Malan's. If you don't think we were, ask _ Marian Peterson. She had to—(oh, d excuse us while we laugh). I think a you'd better ask her. And Bob Barker—but you'd bet- ' ter ask him, too. Maybe he won't j1 tell you, but he certainly had a bun- die to carry. His shoulders have our sympathy. They, at least, will remember they belong to Beta Zeta Tau.—Florence' Dawson. COUNCIL Regular Council was called to or¬der by President Stewart. The min¬utes were read and approved.

LETTER FROM GEORGE Principal Merrill received recent- e ly a very interesting letter i from George Bergstrom, former in- 1 structor in auto-mechanics, who is ] now assistant scout executive of the Crescent Boy council, Santa Monica, Calif. Among other interesting things, he says: "It is well over a year since I made a break to open new fields, ; new lines of endeavor, and new paths. Not even my closest friends r have realized what that meant to me and the sacrifices I made. Now, I am not sorry. The sledding is still hard and my paths are not yet ; smooth, as I look back in retrospect I understand things much better than I ever did before, j "I am intensely interested in my work. It still holds a challenge. I have much greater responsibilities than I ever dreamed I should have. I seem to be maknig good. I hope it is not a lull before the storm. My biggest task has been one of education. At present I am conduct¬ing a training school for 60 men. This is my laboratory, and in it I ; have injected radical ideas from the I standard methods. Strange, too, they are being accepted and we are running like a house afire. "I can never forget the Ogden High school, its principal, its fac¬ulty, and students. I regard them as my dearest friends. Give them my warm greetings.' Photographs Taken For Ogden Year Book OGDEN, Utah, Nov. 30.— (Special) —As a first step toward getting started on the Yearbook, companies "A," "M" and "C" of the R. O.

Dec. 3-1929 Ogden High (Ben Cartwright, editor pro-tem; Lucile Bunot, typist.) .The expenditure of considerable money will be necessitated to buy a complete radio equipment for our school. Undoubtedly the student body must supply the funds. Where will it come from? It is up to the school to support r.ll money-mak¬ing activities, and it is up to the ones who have the authority, to sponsor good, entertaining enter¬prises. We want the radio, there¬fore we wish to begin to gather to¬gether the money. When do we start? "THE POOR NUT" Have you got your ticket for "The Poor Nut" yet? If not, they are on sale at the office. Reserved seats are 75 cents and general admission 50 cents. Your student body card is worth 50 cents. Let's all get our tickets and remember "The Poor s Nut," December 5 and 6. ; The cast this year is very large. Four more who have important ' roles in the play are Ben Cart- I wright, Foss Heiner, Walton Foulger and Porter Anderson. Ben [ plays the part of a hard boiled coach of 35 and can he act hard ! boiled? Maybe it comes second na- 5 ture, but Jt comes. Foss Heiner ) plays the part of the professor and, , as usual, is the "brains" of the pro- 3 duction. Walton Foulger is Mr. Small and also stage manager. You t i all remember Walt in "The Patsy"; r well he is just as good this year. Porter Anderson is another junior V who shows his ability in upholding I the juniors' share of the play. He s plays the part of the athletic doc- !. tor and keeps the boys in condi - e tion. The way he does this can not i. be mentioned here, but come and f see in "The Poor Nut," December 5 and 6 at Weber County High school auditorium. NOTICE! Radio fans!
