They art, no doubt, doing a good work, but isn't it rather a waste of valu¬able newspaper space to print some-thing after the manner of the fol- The meeting was called to order by President Blank. The roll was Ifriud the minutes' read, and the minutes approved as read. Mr. Blank made a motion that we blank blank blank. The motion was passed. We then passed under the head of new business. Miss Blank gave us a delightful talk on blank, Which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. It was one of the most peppy and enthusiastic meetings so far, and I am sure that the Blank club oI Ogden High school is going to do bit things. The meeting was ad-journed after a lengthy discussion which lasted until the wee hours." The above is no exaggeration. Every day the Notes are embellished with this' sort of rubbish. I realize that it is a good thing for clubs to have a certain amount of advertising, and they do, at times, have announcements which are of Interest to the school. I suggest (and earnestly hope that my sug-gestion will be carried out) that these be written up in a newsy and Interesting way, if not by the club reporter than rewritten by the edi¬tors, so that they are a real asset to the Notes and not just another thing that you skip when reading Hoping that my suggestion will be Yours respectfully Charles Wood Your point is well taken, but did It ever occur to you that there is a great rivalry between clubs? Those F clubs who don't have reports in the Notes are considered back numbers. May I enter a plea to club report¬ers. Make your reports interesting to the whole student body. If you are not fitted for the position or are too busy or have some other excuse, resign and have your club well rep¬resented by some peppy reporter. Thanking you sincerely for your Interest, I remain, Sincerely Yours, ELPHA MORSE. LAST LEAGUE GAME Our last league game is scheduled for this coming Friday, and it will be played with South Cache at Hyrum. The team needs all the sup¬port that can possibly be given and it is only fair that the students give the boys their whole-hearted sup¬port. Let's hope for the best and win this final league game. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: Is there any other way for a boy to participate in school debating ac¬tivities other than through becom-ing a member of the Forum club? JUST ME. Dear Just Me: Anyone is eligible to try out for the school debating team whether ha belongs to Forum or not. AUNT JANE. CHATTER AND CHAFF Edgar says: "Be nonchalant, give e'm Ah-Ah-EE—OH." Since Helen Tanner became spon¬sor. she's taken command—(Neelson). Dear Aunt-Bellah-Jane (our first letter Last night I read that you were taking lessons from that great expo¬nent of true love, Dorothy Dix. Ah, at last I am able to unburden from my pulsing, throbbing left ventricle that feeling—love—Ah a beautiful love. I met her in the dark (I was studying chemistry), and she said, "Gosh, you have got a big red noz¬zle (nose)"; then I fell. From then on one thing led to another, and believe me the memory of those beautiful days will always make my solar plexus throb with "Tolsoroi" enthusiasm. L-o-v-e, Oh L-o-v-e. Now wipe your tear-stricken eyes, Bellah, and listen to the heart-ren¬dering part: One night I waltzed up to her penthouse, and she gave me a "Garbo" Oh, Boy. Now, get this, I noticed a hat belonging to Bert Black, and I knew that the skunk was there. My rage. I shouted, "Come out, you skunk." Ah, woe is me. All of a sudden a terrific commotion began and Joe Fowler, Bert Black, Ivan Nielson, Frances Burton, Dee Wangsgard, Paul Goddard, O. B. Madson and Paul Bramwell jumped out from their hiding places. I ask you, was she loyal? HORACE OVERLUV. Dear Horace Overluv: How could you question your love's loyalty-how could you? Why, those young men might have been her brothers. Now cheer up; remember no man, as Mr. Merrill says, is any better than his. faith. Thas—A-l-l. BELLAH. JOURNALISTIC CLUB At meeting Monday evening, the i group of students who gathered decided that the Journalistic club, if organized, will have ten senior mem¬bers. Any senior desirous of becom¬ing a member of this organization for the furthering of writing at Og¬den High school may try out by writing an original composition of any kind, shape or description, and by signing the said theme with a "nom-de-plume." The contribution must be typewritten to avoid par¬tiality, as membership will be by merit alone. All contributions'must be on the table in Mr. Kasius' room (304) by 4 o'clock Friday, November 20. After the contributions are judged, the "nom-de-plumes" will be called for and the members notified. We wish to state again that any juniors' desirous of joining will be welcome at our meetings and will, if they qualify, be taken into the club at a later date. However, they must be patient for the present. DID YOU KNOW THAT— The Ogden High school was buil, to accommodate five hundred stu¬dents and that it now has nearly 1000? When the high school was built, the taxpayers protested that we did not need such a big building? The first year after it was com¬pleted it held ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades and that only two hundred and fifty students at¬tended? Doyle Hales and Lindbergh are both colonels? Mr. Taggart is going to give a test in which everyone must copy at last half the answers from someone relse. Anyone caught writing over ! half his own questions will flunk?— Reporter at Large. I I hope you liked it—Ah, Rewaah. For the gall of today is the sweet of tomorrow And a moment's loss is a life times' gain.

(If you didn't, you ,are not a cadet.) The Quarterly Classicum and the Yearbook were put out by the same gtaff not so many years ago? ! The rumor is true that there was one shift left intact after the water fight was over? If people don't stop writing open letters to the editor she is going to go in for some high-class murder? That there are certain male stu¬dents together with the men teach¬ers who are holding an endurance contest to see who can stand by the west wall in assembly the most times? —Reporter at Large. THE MOTHERS' TEA We were very happy to receive so many mothers last Friday and to feel their interest in the school. The Girls' association under whose aus¬pices the tea was held is to be com¬mended and especial mention made of the following girls who had charge of the tea.

CO-OPERATION SHOWN The Note Box has been positively thronged with material. Thank you for your interest, students. Re-member, the Notes are for the stu¬dent body. Drop an article in the Note Box, save a soul! WE WONDER We see the captain of the bandj walking up to Eccles avenue every!, day after school. We wonder—has, he moved? CHATTER AND CHAFF Edgar says: "It takes fifty muscles to frown and ten to smile—; don't waste your energy!" Charles Woods is the young man with an engaging smile and a cleft I chin—I won't tell you what else. Mutterings from the weak: "Ah, I'm tired of that gal—all she says is, "I wish you were like John, Bill!" Clarence Keller can't figure out where they got his picture. Embarrassing moments—when you answer prepared and the teacher checks up. Morrill Loftgreen went pheasant hunting and came back with Rhode Island Reds.

This is Gregg Artsist back again after a some¬what lengthy sojourn. First of all we'll tell you about the theatre party we had. Everyone was present and if you don't think we learned something new just ask anybody how he (she in this case) is coming along with the use of chop-sticks. You see, we went to the noodle parlor afterward. By the way, have you seen the charming girls who are now our ju¬nior members? They are Gladys Ossman, Lenna Hardy, June Van Sweden, Ruth Hoggan and Marjorie Sherner. They were made members at a delightful party given at the home of Dorothy Eklund. It was ex¬tremely hard to recognize them aft¬er they had been redressed at the hands of merciless sister members. However, they enjoyed it. Just ask them if they didn't. At any rate, Mr. Farnsworth had a wonderful time feeding the little dears a few worms, and we-U, dessert (?). We are going to have more im¬portant things to tell you later on, so watch the notes. MILDRED RAMPTON, Reporter. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: There is going to be a pep club organized in Ogden high, under a different name. Do you think that it is exactly fair to all of the students who are peppy, too? There are enough clubs in high now without having any more organised just because these people cannot get into one of them. Don't you think I'm right. MICKEY MOUSE. Dear Mickey Mouse: I am afraid you have been misinformed concerning the organization, of a pep club. There is to be no pep club. , . It does not seem to be the general opinion that there are too many clubs in high school and if any en-terprising group of students can or¬ganize a club with a purpose that -meets with the approval of coun- ( cil and succeeds in getting a teacher for advisor the club will be rec- ; ognized. We wish this to be a democratic institution with equal oppor¬tunity for all. AUNT JANE. IN CONCLUSION Junior (dumb): "Gosh, Bob Rushmer must carry a Big Ben around by the looks of that watch chain." Dale Anderson is through with love. Oh, yeah! , J. Mutterings from the weak: "I just! can't resist those big black eyes." Nov. 13, 1931 O.H.S. NEWS Elpha Morse, Editor; Virginia Hunter, Bob Hetzel, Associates; Beatrice Allen, Phyllis Isakson, Typists. Men and rivers grow crooked by Following the path of least re¬sistance. We have in our midst three new students, Jack Stonebreaker from Evanston, Wyo., Louise Van Zweden from Salt Lake City and Eva Wil¬liams from Oakland, Calif. We hope I they will be most happy here. Wel¬come. Let's have some pep. Everybody thinks the game with South Cache is not important. It means a lot to the team and the school, because Ogden was defeated last year. To show the team we want them_to win lets hold a pep rally for them when they leave the school for Hyrum. —Station P-E-P. NE TOP PEW Extra! Extra! Read all about it. Council accepts the constitution of the new club called Ne Top Pew What a club, what a group of mem¬bers, what a time we will have (the only thing lacking is what a man). To say nothing of the adorable ad¬visors, Mrs. McKey and Miss Greene. Well, as the saying goes, "Action speaks louder than words." So, we'll be seeing you.—June Harrison reporter. WE WONDER The day after the teachers had decided that too many students were coming late to class, one of the ; sponsors stood in the hall talking to Art Cartwirght until she was late for Mr. Farnsworth's typing class. Who? How many have noticed the sud¬den change in Norm Dockum? I wonder if the sponsor of the band could have anything to do with it; or is he influenced by his newly found "pals"? AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: Could you tell me how many dances there will be at the Thanks¬giving dance and which ones will be the waltzes. —Schnozzle. Dear Schnozzle: There are usually sixteen dances and four extras. Every third dance is a waltz. —Aunt Jane. WHAT A NIGHT! Did someone say something about Tau eta Nu being slow? The new members are of a very different opinion, and are convinced you will be too before long. Friday night at 7:30 eight girls including two seniors—Ruth Cleve, Mary Walker and six juniors—Ja¬net Fife, Janneth Garnor, Maurine Shaw, Marianna Thomas, Helen Sissons, and Miriam Corey experi¬enced one of the biggest thrills in (their personal history. ' After tramping over the extensive territory between. Twenty-fourth and Forty-eighth streets above Har¬rison avenue chasing some fool white arrows, besides hugging coal shovels and a tow rope each, for apparently no reason except company, they wearily trudged back to their presi¬dent, Hermese Broadbent. We here found ourselves in some very embarrassing situations at times, but were rewarded by being sworn in as members, and a gift from the other girls. A lovely sport handkerchief with our initials in one corner. Between the broken accent of our new vice president, "that little southern girl," Janette Garner, and Mary Walker's sudden outburst in numerous songs and stories, our in¬itiation went over like an awning! "Yes, Mam!" A vote of thanks from the new members for a very successful eve¬ning. CHATTER AND CHAFF Noon romance is sadly missing in! dear old High school since we lost Dot and Frannie, and Ray Raty and his harem. We regret their untimely passing. Helen Tanner appears with her lead, "Irish Ike." Dee Wangsgard and his Water Lou. Joe Fowler and his Holly Vir¬gin. Dole Hales and his Larson-ev. Amusements: Kasius and Corey..
