4-8-26 OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES THE FUND GROWS. Wright's said Wednesday, "Put us down for a boy." Gus Becker says. "Sure, I'll join your 'Send a Boy' club." Angus Kennedy says, "Yes, I'll send a boy." J. W. Ure says, "My wife's one of the band's biggest boosters, I'll send one." The Standard - Examiner says, "Yes, use our paper for your subscription list; we are with you. We will also send a boy." LANDSLIDE AT ROTARY. At Rotary club Wednesday there was a veritable landslide in sup¬port of the R. O. T. C. band. At least seven new men signified their willingness on the floor to each send a boy. These boosters are Lawrence Dee, Marriner Eccles, Fred Williams, James DeVine, John Spargo, Harman Peery. In addition other members of the club will contribute from $10 up to support the cause. IN APPRECIATION. It is ascertained that of the 25 men who have already joined the "Send a Boy' club, 14 of them are Rotarians. That the Rotary club believes in boys needs no further argument in Ogden. Ogden Ro¬tary certainly appreciates the R. O. T. C. band and is showing its appreciation by its works. The boys appreciate this splen¬did faith that the club has in them and shall take great pride in playing for Rotary district con¬vention to be held in Salt Lake on April 16. This promises to be the largest district Rotary convention in the history of the club, and the band will do the school and Ogden honor on this occasion. CHICAGO BOOSTER. Since we won the Hearst trophy four years ago the Chicago Amer¬ican newspaper has been a pow¬erful booster for Ogden High school and Ogden. Editor Bicket, who delivered the trophy, was much impressed with the Ogden spirit and from that day to this has taken every opportunity to "front page" Ogden and to give her the good word. He featured the Ogden basketball team in a magnificent pic¬ture. When he learned that the Ogden R. O. T. C. band was com¬ing to Chicago, he was much de¬lighted and promised the band a royal reception and some very dis¬tinctive publicity. THE BIG DANCE. The dance at White City on Friday night to secure funds for the band will be the biggest af¬fair of its kind this spring. Hun¬dreds of young people appreciate the fine record the band Is making and will be glad of the opportun¬ity of showing their appreciation by being at the dance, and inci¬dentally having a good time, too. THE BEST CRITIC. Benjamin Franklin discovered the art of "self criticism." At' least he is the first to record the discovery. He made the great dis¬covery early in life, and by making use of it during his long career he became the wisest, most useful man of his time. The best thing any student can possibly learn is that "he is his own best critic." Especially in his work in English, should he apply the principle of self-criticism; he should re-read all that he writes, with a view of re-writing and improving the structure. He should consider his speech and endeavor not to re¬peat errors. And so the same principle carries everywhere in life. No man can really become edu¬cated, no man can achieve any great success without consciously applying through life the prin¬ciple of "self criticism." ANOTHER LEAVING. Miss Louise Bowman announces that she will not return to Ogden High next year as conditions at home demand her presence there. Miss Bowman expresses regret that she cannot return as she likes Ogden and her people—especially her young people and has enjoyed her work immensely. Both stu-dents and teachers reciprocate Miss Bowman's kind feelings and good will. Miss Bowman has proved herself a very efficient teacher and all are sorry to have her leave us. SUPT. LOSES JOB. The superintendent of schools of Zanesville, Ohio, thought the high school basketball team should not go to Chicago to participate in the national tournament even though it was the champion team of Ohio. Supt. Kirkendall thought the trip would interfere too much with the boys' studies and insisted that they should not be allowed to go. The board of education overruled the superintendent and sent the team, which came home with the consolation trophy. The superin¬tendent thereupon tendered his resignation which was unanimous¬ly accepted. COUNCIL REPORT. April 6. It was suggestel that in some manner the student council be enlarged. It was moved and sec¬onded that an amendment be pro¬vided whereas officers of the R. O. T. C. and school organizations be included in the council. The mo¬tion was made and carried that members of the council include the student body officers, staff of¬ficers, athletic managers, presi¬dents of school organizations, the class officers and the four councilers of each class. The next suggestion was made into a motion and carried, that article IX of the constitution be changed from "Finance commit¬tee" to "Committees," thereby providing for special committees and an additional standing committee to be known as the club com¬mittee. Two other suggestions, in or¬der, were made into a motion and carried: 1, That hereafter no school organizations may call a regular or special meeting upon a regular council night. 2. That ' the powers of the council should be enlarged, in that: Upon recom¬mendation of the club committee the council shall have power to grant a charter for the school year to any club whose aim is deemed worthy of a place in school activities. The last suggestion dealing with clubs and memberships was tabled by motion. HERBERT VERHEEK, Secy. THE JUNIOR PROM. It's about time the school woke up to the fact that there is such an animal as a junior class. So far we've been rather successfully hiding our light under a bushel, but the time has come for us to arise and shine. The time has come for us to do something handsome, and we are going to do it, as it has never been done be¬fore. We are going to throw a party in the Berthana that will make every other junior prom look like an afternoon sewing circle. The other dances of this year will just curl up and die and the seniors will carry away a great affection for the much scorned class which gave them a real dance. The committess have been ap¬pointed and plans are well under way. The committees: General Chairman — Grant Chandler. Decorations—Chairman, Evelyn Benowitz; Clyde Elder, Colin Ed¬wards, Virginia Anderson, Helen Wilcox. Program — Chairman, Mary Rich; Louise Eccles. Refreshments—Chairman, Ralph Jenson; Parnell Lemon, Neth McClellan, Kathleen Alsup, Eva Walker. Pairing and Invitations—Chair¬man, Eleanor Weeks; Ruth Mark, Merrill Tribe, Vellys Woods, Clif¬ford Fretwell, Paul Chez. Tickets—Chairman, Frank Rose, Wallace Evans, Kathren Healey, Art Hales, Geraldine Leonard. Publicity—Chairman, Winifred MacConnell; Ruth Agee, Bugs Woods, Don Corey. PEARL FISHING AT P. I.
