It won't be long now until the future and past will both be observed in the present. The yearly Annual is on its way. The staff hcs tried to please every¬one with plenty of pictures. Under the splendid supervision of,the ed¬itor, business manager and advisors, the year book is in its complete form. Now, under your supervision it will receive its finishing touches., Make it golden with your clever ideas and sayings of interest.— ! Janet Fife. QUARTERLY CLASSICUM Depression, goodwill, patriotism, and fairyland. Humorously or trag¬ically, sympathetically or beautiful-, ly, loudly or amusingly, and lightly!' or daintily, have these numbers of . our Quarterly Classicum paraded 1 blithely through many of our lines, adding a doubly enjoyed evening, a-j revival of some lost hope, or the ful- : fillment of an intense desire. The work has been well executed and carefully arranged, thanks to' the editor and her helpers. And al-, though we'll see no more of .it this school year, I know we can eagerly look forward to those of next year, a year, I'm sure, of equally engaging production performed by equally hard workers— M. J. W. PLAYING THE GAME It is only right that we recognize some of our many merits, and ad¬mit that, though the spring weather has taken a firm hold upon us, our attendance record is growing better every day. We don't blame anyone for that feeling of wanting to toss all aside and take a rest, but we do blame him for fulfilling his desire while the rest of us conquer our wandering spirits and remain stead¬fastly In our accustomed places. Even though spring is affecting you, resist her and continue playing the game. Don't blame your teachers. Just as much as you do they would like to be free to follow their desires. Keep our record as good as it is. Make it better if possible. Let's make these last few weeks count and be a credit to us.

GREGG ARTISTS On May 7, Gregg Artists held its semiannual initiation at the home of Ruth Hoggan. The brave and proud pledges, now members, were Mary Drumiler, Ruth Van Dyke, Donna Hardy, Ann Cox, Claramay Stephens and Dorothy Sharret. After going through the regular grind of initiation, we finally landed at Ruth's home. Here, we had some more absurd darings. Refreshments were then served, after which a se¬rious initiation was performed. After extemporaneous speeches yafflhe officer? and pew, members, we adjourned to our homes.—Ruth Dunstan, Reporter. CARPE DIEM At our regular meeting held Tues¬day at three thirty p. m., the fol¬lowing girls were pledged into our club: Marian Cheesman and Mar¬garet Stone. Likewise, at a previous meeting, Miss Ruth Cross was pledged, but owing to some discrep¬ancy, her name failed to appear at that time.

(Signed) CONGRESS. Witnessed by Helen Lindquist, re¬porter. FRENCH LETTERS Yes, after a month or so of anx¬ious waiting some of the French let¬ters have come. Most of us were able to understand "Ma chere" or "votte amil," but we will admit that there were one or more (mostly more) sentences which we could not read, except for Mr. Taggart's help. If you would like to read some of them, you might ask Mr. Taggart about them. I am sure that all of those who have one would be glad to let you see it.—Jeannette John¬son. Seniors Make Most Of Final Few Days May 16, 1932 1 O. H. S. Students Count¬ing Hours Remaining in Present Study Year Ogden High School Notes Robert Hetzel, Editor Everyone around school is walking around in the nice spring air and mumbling something about how many days of school still remain. A ! great many just have the number down to the days, but some even have them down to the hours, min¬utes, seconds, and split seconds. Some people are rejoicing, but oth¬ers are a little sad. If the last few days of school were to mean noth¬ing more than just this it would furnish plenty of entertainment for . everyone. These are the last few days that the seniors will be in high school, and they are making them days that will long be cher¬ished and remembered.—The Edi¬tor. ASSEMBLY SPEAKER Mr. Willis Smith, one of our science teachers, was the speaker in r last Friday's assembly. During the summer Mr. Smith is a forest ranger in the eastern part of Yellowstone park. His very interesting and educational talk concerned the his- tory of the park from the time the first trapper set foot in that coun- ' try to the existing condiions today. Carbon county's band from Price entertained us with a number of selections of Victor Herbert and! other encore numbers. We feel hon-l ored to have heard Price's splendidj band that won second place in the interstate contest held some weeks ago.—Fay Cardon. PET PROS AND CONS Pros: Everyone who doesn't know who Susie Seventeen is. Anyone who thinks I am Elpha Morse. Cons: Those who say slighting things about this struggling young genius, thinking they are confiding in some-one else. The few people who have found out, but Emma Miller and B. T aren't among those so honored.— Susie Seventeen. THE NUISANCE And speaking of projects . . . The other day in the hall a girl with pale, hollow cheeks, deeply ringed j eyes, (but not from entertainment the night before) and an air of lassitude spoke, discouraged, to an equally worn out looking boy. "I've handed in three projects, already, and I don't see how I'm going to get those other two in today. I'm so sorry I can't go with you tonight because if those—well, things—are late another day I'll probably fail." "Gee, I'm sorry, too. I thought j we might take a vacation from the library one night of the week, any-j way. Since it seems to be a matter of life and death, I suppose it'd much better be death because we'll: probably die from it anyway. Projectitis would look original on a tombstone, to say the least." Projects on this and projects on that may make a pretty showing on the blackboard—for one day— but they entail a good many sleep¬less nights, ruined dispositions (have you wondered what was the matter with your best girl friend lately?) and heretofore unheard of excuses. The inevitability of projects should be common occurrences to us now but I maintain that they are con¬science-wreckers, spring fever in¬terpolators, and (dare I?) awful nuisances.—M. J. W. All-Around Athletes Introducing Ogden's crop of outstanding all-around scholastic athletes for 1932".
