It will be held on Friday, September 23. Although it will ] be later than first intended we know it will be a huge success. Congressman Colton expressed 1 great pleasure in addressing the < high school assembly. He said: "I ] never addressed a more appreciative ; audience." Mrs. Royal Eccles expresses her sincere appreciation to the principal and students of Ogden High for courtesies extended at assembly on Friday morning last. SOMEONE SAID You will find the key to success under the alarm clock. One good thing about telling the truth, you don't have to remember ' what you said. • Gender shows whether a man is masculine, feminine, or neuter.- Janet Fife. My Dear Aunt Jane: Has thorr bren any definite date will be able to secure a few more suits so as to accommodate all who wish to take this work. SUMMER AT STANFORD Miss Nan Osmond, instructor in typewriting, reports having spent a most delightful and profitable summer at Stanford university, Palo Alto, Cal. MORE WORK, LESS PAY Teachers explain or complain that their work is considerably increased this year, while their salary has been proportionately decreased. They say they'll have to study proportion all over again. COUNCIL REPORT The first regular meeting of Council, held September 13, was called to order by President Anderson.

I Dear Anxious: No; we have been so busy we haven't had time to think of it- Aunt Jane. STUDENT BODY TICKETS Did you ever try to do something without any equipment to do it with? If so, you realize that such: a task is impossible. Likewise, students, Ogden High school can do nothing without funds. These funds are raised mainly through the sale of student body tickets. Everyone should have a ticket for his own advantage, not to mention his duty . to the school. Let's back our stu- ; dent body officers and if you haven't i : purchased your student body ticket1 ! yet, see your advisory teacher immediately. BIG ENROLLMENT Four hundred seventy-one boys and 476 girls were counted in the ' second period classes this morning. It is estimated that there are from 15 to 20 special students, part time and post graduate, so that our en-| ; rollment is well beyond the 960 mark. Anyway we have about 50 to ; 75 more students than we can seat • in the assembly hall. Certainly we should have some more chairs. . R. O. T. C.

COST OF EDUCATION Does education cost too much? In 1930 the American people spent $2,184,847,200 for education, $2,141,- 220,000 for tobacco, $1,850,240,000 for soft drinks, candy, ice cream and gum. For tobacco, soft drinks, etc., jewelry, cosmetics, perfumes, sporting goods, we spent $6,401,950,000 or more than three times the cost of public education. Since these are all luxuries, and education is an absolute necessity, it would seem that we are not really very extravagant in our expenditure for education. | A A \ FRIDAY EVENING-, SEPTEMBER 16,1932. New Method Adopted For Student Encore School Talent To Be Used In Assemblies As Much As Possible OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Parke Petterson, Editor As the second week of scnool ends we find ourselves literally smothered with work. One needs not ask whether we are started - we are swamped. The program committee has decided, in justice to all, that students presenting numbers at weekly assemblies will not be encored. Instead they may be invited frequently, providing all who are talented may have an opportunity of appearing. Special guests will be asked to offer two numbers. It has been decided also to use student talent as much as possible in the weekly asemblies. If your friend has talent, whisper a word to Mr. Hansen, Mr. Anderson or Miss Woolley. Wanted and badly-Water and lots of it on our football ground. DID YOU PASS? Here are the answers to the question tests of Wednesday: After a sheep is 6 years old- it is seven years old. A cannibal who has eaten mother and father is an orphan. In a rainstorm King George carries a "wet" umbrella. Wasn't that easy? A little more time and Ogden High will have a campus or a "playing" field. The houses are being moved and the ground cleared. We certainly thank the board of education for this very fine improvement to our school. , GIRLS' MEETING Order, minutes, speeches, selections and wishes were features of our first Girls' association meeting held in the gym Thursday morning. Helen Murphy played a very interesting piano selection, Helen Brophy told us all about Putty and his girl friend, Gloria, Miss Brewer gave us an enjoyable welcome speech, Phyllis Wilson sang "In the Garden of Tomorrow," accompanied by Lucille Lyman at the piano, and last but decidedly not least Mrs. Irwin wished us all manner of happiness, wealth, health and friends. It was a good start and I know we'll keep it up. Don't forget the big sister party! THE BEST CLUBS Is your club a perfect club? Of course, in our own eyes they are, but by perfect we mean, does it carry on according to the club regulations. Have you read them? We recommend that you become familiar with these regulations before any steps are taken in the club line. Absolutely no pledging will be made until- after the first six weeks. See the bulletin board for further information.-Janet Fife. SENIORS' MEETING Fun and foolishness went over the board last night, when the senior class elected three of its most serious, business like students. Grant Goddard president, Wayne Watson vice president, and Marjorie Wood secretary. James Foulger gave a close race for the last two positions named, but seemed doomed to failure each time. His modesty and reticence were probably responsible for this. President Anderson presided at the meeting. Sometimes the speeches left him cold, but once he blushed so terribly that he asked permission to remove his tie. His moods varied from witty remarks concerning Mr. Foulger's modesty to impassioned pleas for co-operation in the back of the room. Campaign speeches were many but seemed disappointingly similar. Roland Stone gave two fiery speeches for his candidates, and, as they were both elected (by the rules of politics) he ought to be made secretary of the treasury, or something. During the latter part of the meeting the water fight became a prominent issue. Only about ninety students were present at this meeting. - Bill Thompson. GIRLS Peculiar things, they are, the loyal upholders of "The Order of the Dress," those champions of "drug store beauty"; those things that the supporters of "The Order of Trousers" are reputed to be able not to do without. They are sympathetic- silly called the weaker sex, complimentary or sarcastically called the fair sex, humorously called better haves, and commonly called girls. But all in aJl, girls are all right, they are innocent enough creations. Phey were put here for some good ered) and so we will have to tolerate them. At least they always have the last word. Here at the school they are obstacles to traffic, especially on the east side of the main hall floor. You simply can not walk through that part of the hall before the bell rings and come out looking the same way as when you vent in. Just try it some time. Now the reason may be that their cckers are there, and again it may 3e feminine vanity such as: "Per- iaps if I stand here may Johnny or Jimmy will pass by and notice how lice I look today and maybe he will itop and chat a while"; or "Maybe hat stuck-up snooty June or Jane vill pass by and get a load of this mtfit of mine," and so on. Of :ourse I may be mistaken and prob- tbly am-if so I apologize now.- Sid Gordon. |
