' The Bamberger railroad is of- t fering- one dollar return rates to Salt Lake every afternoon begin- : j ning Wednesday at 2:30 o'clock. I The tickets are good for one day i only and are given on account of j the basketball tournament in Salt Lake, the school advising that more than 50 people will take ad­vantage of the proposition.

In view of the fact that Ogden students can attend school and . j then see 3, 4, 5 or even 6 games i of basketball each day, no stud- ' I ents outside of the team will be I excused from school, i j The admission to the games will be 50c for students. It is re- ported that any student possess­ing a student body ticket can se­cure a season ticket permitting him to see all games or at least : as many as he wishes for one dollar and fifty cents. This re­port has not been absolutely veri­fied, but we are assured that it is correct. Teachers are making every ef­fort to improve regulaf-ity of at­tendance at high school. It is j said that a day of school is worth nine dollars to a high school pupil. As this is considerable more than any teacher receives, it is argued that it is quite as import- ! ant for a student to be present ev- I ery day as it is for the teacher. The first term of the second semester closes on Friday. Re­views and examinations are being i given this week. 1 Indications are that there will ; be a large crowd at the b&nd con- j cert at the high school tonight. I j Just one hour of sweet music and j entertainment, 7:30 to 8:30 o'- j clock. LEARNING TO STUDY. Dr. Lewis Perry, principal of the famous Phillips Exeter Academy, New Hampshire, was recent- ' ly asked, "What is the common- est fault of the modern boy?" i "The one which probably always j has been the commonest," he re- j plied. "The parents who entered j their boys at the old Boston Latin j school two hundred years ago i probably said to Dr. Pormont what they still say to me Will­iam is a good boy, Dr. Perry, he's never given us any trouble worth mentioning. His only fault, noth­ing serious, is that he has never learned to concentrate'." , That which parents regard as "nothing serious," Dr. Perry re­gards is the greatest modern fault. "The boy who cannot con­centrate," says he, "lacks the one great essential to successful work of any kind."-March American. This great common fault was very aptly illustrated by Dr. Bar­ker the other day when he showed how most high school. students study. Dr. Barker gave the stud­ents three months, Feb. 28 to May 28, in which to learn how , to ! fetudy.
