Show Vision enables a man to extend his observation beyond his own sphere and make it encircle the community, nation or earth. PROM COMMITTEE. The committees on the prom have been selected and are begin¬ning preparations for the great event. The full committee will be published the latter part of the week. The chairman of committees are: General, Grant Chandler; program, Mary Rich; pairing, Eleanor Weeks; advertising Wi¬nifred McConnell; decoration, Eve¬lyn Benowitz; refreshments, Parnell Lemon; tickets, Frank Rose. BIG DANCE. The band dance to be given at White City should be another Classicalia—so far as numbers are concerned. Here is the opportunity for all the young people of Ogden to have a good time and incidentally help the band. All the money obtained will go to help pay the expenses of the Gary trip. ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MAN Charles Empey is a real booster. He said some time ago: "I'll send a boy to Gary." Yesterday he said: "I'll send two boys." We appre¬ciate Mr. Empey's interest and en¬thusiasm. We are hoping a few others will get it. Not that we par¬ticularly wish anyone individual to send two boys, but we should like several men to send one boy each. CARPE DIEM MEETING. Our advisors said that our last meeting reminded them of a na¬tional convention. Many mo¬mentous questions were brought up and vivaciously discussed. A hike was decided upon for next Sunday morning. After a heated debate it was finally determined to confer a great honor on some of the boys of the school by- inviting them to go along. In the near future a "kids' par¬ty for girls only will be held at the home of one of the members. The reason we are giving this past, because so many teachers commented on the kiddish as of the students lately, so we taking this means of getting kiddishness out of our systems, ready, faculty, let's give the "rahs" for the Carpe Diem. —Mabel Reynolds, Reporter. R. O. T. C. AVERAGES.

Word comes from the Dee hos¬pital that Mrs. Grace Stone Blackham was successfully operated on last Monday for serious throat trouble. All teachers and students of the high school are keenly in¬terested in Mrs. Blackham and hope that her complete recovery will be speedy and permanent. THE FORUM.

Principal Samuel Morgan of Davis High announces that the Lewis triangular oratorical contest of Ogden, Box Elder and Davis will be held on Wednesday, April 28, at Davis County High school. Judges from Salt Lake will be obtained for the contest. The school winning the contest will be given the silver cup—to have and to hold for one year. The first place speaker will be given a beau¬tiful $50 gold watch, suitably en¬graved, to have and to hold for¬ever. The second place winner will be given a beautiful pin. The annual contest is attracting a very great deal of interest in the three schools. PRINCIPALS DINE. The Ogden city school principals had dinner at the Weber club Tues¬day. A very interesting talk was given by Orson Douglas on the su¬gar industdy, dealing especially with the ungrounded prejudices still extant against beet sugar. THE CUBS' COUNCIL. The spring number of Cubs' Council, joke edition, Central Ju¬nior, has just reached the high school. It was an April Fools' day edition and the joke is that we didn't get it for a week. It is a 24-page mimeographed edition, profusely illustrated. The second page of every leaf throughout the book is all illustration. The bor¬der of each page is covered with grotesque figures in keeping with the April-fool idea. Naturally, there is the story of the origin of April Fools' day, and its observance in several lands. Although a joke edition, it con¬tains several serious articles, some poetry, school news and other in-teresting features that make a good paper. Bob Wing is editor and Carmen Garner is business man-ager. ART EXHIBIT. The University of Utah is adver¬tising "one of the state's finest art exhibits," to be held at the university art gallery from April 4 to 12. FACULTY TREATED. Faculty meeting was enlivened on Monday evening by a treat of ice cream, generously furnished by two of the instructors, Miss Louise Bowman and Miss Marguerite Hub¬bard. These teachers were cen-sored at the previous meeting for not eating their share of the choco¬lates and offered the treat this week in propitiation. HOME EXCUSES. The plan of having pupils tender their own excuses for absences has been tried and found wanting. It is most desirable that the home and school be in touch with each other on the matter of absences, and the best way discovered thus far is to have students bring written excuses from home for every absence. Stu¬dents were notified Tuesday in ad¬visory periods that home excuses would be required in all cases here¬after. WANTED. Ogden wants right now some public spirited citizens to join the "Send a Boy to Gary," club. Others to "send half a boy"; others "a quarter of a boy." In other words, men who will do as some of our good citizens have already done and say "I'll contribute a hundred dollars"; "I'll contribute fifty dol¬lars"; "I'll contribute twenty-five dollars," etc. The band should go to Gary to advertise Utah. The boys should go to Gary as a reward for faithful work, efficient service, and to en¬courage them in building up a great musical organization in Ogden. The trip would be highly educative and profitable to the boys and it would be an inspiration to them to con¬tinue their fine work. We doubt whether any boys in Utah have ever accomplished so much musically as these boys have done during the past six months. We doubt that musical interests in Ogden have ever received such an impetus as Hy Lammers has in¬jected into these boys in the oast few months. By all means, let's nave some more boosters. |
