Show School Record Mis Elaine Edson, Ogden High school student, who is completing thirteen years in the city schools without having been either absent or tardy. ELAINE EDSON MAXES RECORD ON ATTENDANCE Neither Tardy Nor Absent From Ogden Schools In 13 Years Miss Elaine Edson, Ogden High school senior, has all the qualifications necessary to make her th answer to a business man's dreair of a perfect secretary or stenographer, for in addition to being champion typist of Ogden High witt a speed of 80 words per minute, she has the unique record of never having been late or absent in thirteen years spent in Ogden public schools. Miss Edson, 18, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred G. Edson, of 2971 Jackson avenue, began her school career in the kindergarten of Lorin Farr school. She completed the seventh grade at that school with a perfect record for attendance and promptness, and three years' at- tendence at Central Junior High school left the record still intact. Then she entered Ogden High school, and upon graduation this month will have completed thirteen years of schooling without once being late or missing a class. Asked how she managed to compile so remarkable a record without ever being betrayed by a faulty alarm clock or other accidental circumstance, she said, "Well, my mother had quite a lot to do with it."

We had a few words from the advisors, Mrs. Chambers and Mr. Robins, and from the three editors, Janet Fife, Roland Stone, and Parke Petterson.
