Pupils Reminded Of Treasure In Brain "Put First Things First," Forms Message to O.H.S. Youths j "You can find the best paying jgold mine in the world if you look for it hard enough. It is right above your neck." Yet how many of us overlook this source of wealth in the mad scram­ble for other pleasures of the world. Like the man who could not see his way to success because of a cinder in his eye, too many of us are, per­haps, allowing secondary things to interfere with our real purpose in school, namely, to uncover and de- velop this gold mine with which we are all endowed. Let us put first things first. The opportunity is open to all. Will you heed the chal­lenge? -The Editor. JOIE FRANCAISE Five pledges, or maybe I should say remains of pledges, plodded home last Friday night after a most enjoyable (maybe I'm wrong) even­ing of initiations at the home of Mary Thomas. Are they glad that they are now members? Well, if you are really interested, yoy just ask any , one of the five, who are: Edith Bush, Margaret Sampson, Donna Simpson, Elsie Griffin, and Mary Hinchcliff. After a serious initiation Wednesday night, at regular club meeting, - the five are now full-fledged mem- . bers, and they are ready to help , make French club one of the best ' and liveliest clubs of the school. We ' congratulate our new members. -F. L. HEAR YE! HEAR YE! The next school sponsored dance of the year is to be the football i dance and is to be held at the Berthana ballroom. This dance is to be held on the night of the last football game, : which is to be played with South Cache at Ogden, and is to be in honor of the football team. Girls, if you haven't a date yet remember that maybe it's because your Romeo doesn't know you have a student ticket and is aware of the fact that if you haven't it will cost him fifty cents. "It pays to adver­tise" so if you have a student body ticket tell your best boy friend (or it may be someone else's boy friend),! but if you haven't, get one and then tell him. Remember, you can get one for a dollar down and a dollar- two more dollars. -Jack Bennett. S. O. S. VOTES Admiral Aadneson assembled the crew of the good craft S. O.

A GENEROUS GIFT We express today our sincere and hearty thanks to Miss Viola Clancy for her generous gift of a complete set of the Howard classics to our school library. This is one of the very best sets of books ever pub­lished, and one that will be used to excellent advantage by our students in all the coming years. We can not sufficiently thank you, Miss Clancy. BELIEVE IT OR NOT IT'S ALL TRUE A goodly number of parents visit­ed on Friday. We were very glad in­deed to have them with us. The Mothers' Annual Tea is be­coming a tradition in the high school, and a very good tradition it is, too. The only objection to the Mothers' Tea is this: it really isn't a tea for no tea is served, and it .isn't for mothers alone either; we are just as anxious to have our fathers present as our mothers. We suggest the name be changed to designate more correctly the purpose of the day. Why not call it "School-Home Day" or "Parents Day" or "Parents Reception Day" or most anything that names its purpose. Its sole purpose is to give parents and teachers an opportunity to meet and get acquainted; to discuss com­mon problems and to learn to oc- operate heartily in the work of the school. Whenever tnere are misunder­standings between the school and the home, they are largely due to the fact that the two have made no effort to get together-to get each; other's viewpoint. The home and the school have the same objective in view; the proper rearing and training of youth. There should be perfect, complete harmony between the two. We believe also the parent should: take the initiative in getting ac­quainted with the teacher, and ex­plaining as much as is necessary concerning the environment, con­dition, circumstances, disposition and character of the child. The parent has known the child longest and most intimately, and consequently might be of great help in getting the child properly located in school. This concerns not only the first grade of school, but every grade including the high school. A student entering high school must meet with some six or seven new teachers with varying person­alities. Before an opportunity de­velops for a clash, a parent might, very profitably meet these teachers and help pave the way for friendly mutual understanding. As high school students we de­clare ourselves as favorable to fre­quent meetings between our parents and our teachers to the end that the three of us might work har­moniously together.

Friday, Hazel Lewis, Girls' as- sociation president, explained to - them the purpose of the association r and the use of the different de-, partments that function under it.J Mrs. Irwin also welcomed the1 motners witn a short talk. A novel-; ty program was presented under the direction of Rosemary Smith and 1" Adele Larson, who are in charge of the entertainment department, in the form of a playlet written by Janith Wright. The program con- r sisted of a reading by Marianna Thomas, a unique chant dance, and a military tap dance. Characters in the play were Rosemary Smith,; Adele Larson, Janeth Wright, Marian Holbrook, Marian Rupe, Marianna Thomas, and Manita Clayton, j Under the direction of Miss Marjorie Brewer, the dancing was color- J ful and well performed. Down- 11 stairs in the girls' rest room, at- „ tractively decorated in black and silver, the_ mothers were served re­ freshments by the domestic science department under the direction of Miss Mealiff. Helen Sessions, vice president of the Girls' association, and Bernice Lindquist, secretary, presided at the serving table. We want to take this opportunity of thanking Olive Klenke for her lovely gift of yellow roses which were used for decorations in the rest room. During the afternoon many of the mothers visited the exhibit of Maynard Dixon's draw­ings in the art room. We feel now that our mothers are better ac­quainted with our faculty and also better acquainted among themselves. Let us hope that they will be as eager to come again next year as O. H. S. is to have them. -Helen Parmley. LOST! Will anyone finding a Zeta Phi Xi pin please return it to the office or to Helen Parmley? I-W-O SPEAKS The time: 7:30 Thursday night.

My reasons are few, in fact I have but one major reason. This is none other than the prob-; lem of gloves. If I could get along without gloves, I am positive I j wouldn't object to the cold. Every time I put on my gloves, I always have to spend a few minutes to calculate my sanity. When I put 1 the right one on, the right always remains-that is, left. Yet to put ;on the left, the other one is left. After this I have right one on. Of course I would have the left on !right; the right one is sure to be ;left. Now, I suggest to the students of O. H. S. to take every possible pre­caution in placing the left glove on right. -Puddle. WONDERMENT .! I Wonder: ; Why some students take books I home.
