Bobble Kimball and Marjorie Wood, Associate Editors. j Now that holidays are near, one i wonders how best he can spend his vacation hours. To me, the most profitable indoor I sport or pastime is to read 'a worth­while book. The most interesting, healthy, in­expensive, lively, outdoor pastime is skiing. Of course, there are other "inter sports that are very recre­ational, but there is something fan­tastic about skiing. Whether you are a sport enthusiast or not, get a pair of skiis and go up to the hills and learn the art of skiing, f It takes courage, spirit and ability r tr train yourself to stand up, but oh, what a satisfaction you get out of soaring down a hill enjoying free air and health. If you fall, remem- i ber the spills are the spice of the r game. After you have finished skiing, you will probably be wet and cold, but after you have reached your warm home you will learn the meaning of "appreciation." PLEASANT DREAMS I had been out of town for the Christmas holidays, and had only returned the evening before the date on which we were to resume school. The next morning I jumped out of bed with alarm, for the clock said ten minutes after eight and I had to be at school at eight-thirty. There I was! The first day of school and only twenty minutes to get ready and walk six and a half blocks to school. While I was yet about a block away, I heard the stirring music of the band and the joyful shouts of the pupils. Wondering what could ' be the matter, I began to run, but suddenly, overcome with astonish- ment, I stopped short, unable to take another step, for there, instead of the old school I had left, stood a beautiful bew building. Standing in the doorway was Mr. Merrill, wel­coming us back. Just at that moment I slipped on the ice and sat down with a jolt. I opened my eyes to find my mother saying, "Get up, get up! It's eight o'clock." Oh, please can't someone find a way to make my dream come true? -M. P. ZETA PHI XI Did you notice the bright and smiling faces of three perfectly adorable junior girls? Yes, they re­ceived beautiful laveliers from Zeta Phi Xi Friday morning. Who are they? Why who else could they be other than Jeanette Clark, Helen Parley and Helen Barker? Are we proud? And how! -Barbara Lindquist. LIVING FOR OTHERS Of lall seasons or times this is that time which requires that one forgets himself and give some little consideration to others. These oth­ers may not in many cases need one's help or aid, but we need to give ourselves the treat, the uplift, the strength of character that comes from breaking our crusted shell of selfishness. It is not a question whether one can afford to help others, it's a, question whether any one can afford not to help others. UNEMPLOYMENT From conditions maintaining at: High School this week, we assume I there are no unemployed in Ogden. The pre-holiday season is dragging many youngsters out of school to take extra jobs here and there in business enterprises. Certainly no employer would take a child from school if it were at all possible to get help from any other source. All things considered these should be the very best days of all the school year. Certainly one can ac­ complish more now than in the balmy days of spring or in the hot days of summer. FOR GOOD ONES ONLY Well, boys and girls, have you all been good children this year? Let's hope so, because you know Santa will,, not visit bad little children. I suppose each is wondering what his'girl friend is going to give him or what her boy friend is going to give her. Please, Santa, (you notice, I be­lieve in Santa), bring the teachers sumpin' nice so they will be less harsh on us poor students. Maybe Ruth and Jim will get that new car they Want so very much. Or am I wrong? Say, isn't Texe the luckygirl? She must have been very, very good to get such a grand present as a trip to the coast for her holidays. Have a good time, Texa, but don't forget to come back. Ogden High could never do without her "A" student. I hope someone will give B. T. some new wisecracks so we can real­ly laugh. This is station XMAS signing off. Merry Christmas! X. S. SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 24, 1932. New Shelves Needed In Lockers At School Storm Water Drips Down On Goods of Unlucky Occupants OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor. Bobbie Kimball and Marjorie Wood. Associate Editors. To my notion, Santa would cer­tainly do O. H. S. a good turn if he would creep in on the eventful eve and install another shelf in each of j the lockers. Students have enough' scholastic worries without being bothered with the trouble of having only one shelf for two people. It was all very fine until bad weather came. The tallest of two lockermates usually took the top shelf, the other took the bottom of the locker. Then came the snow. The student occupying the lower region had to move-and quickly. Books, after having wet galoshes piled on them and being drenched by water oozing down from sopping coats and umbrellas, as in a sorry mess. And, as Mr. Thornley says, I can't think of a word that isn't swearing bad enough to describe the mess the lunches brought from home are in. If they do happen to survive the eight o'clock street car jam, they are thoroughly squashed in the locker muddle before noon. Don't disappoint us, Santa! WATCH AND WAIT Who is Jim Lazenby? And what does Deirde know about his techni­que? All will be revealed on Janu­ary 13 and 14. You'll be sorry if you miss it. CHRISTMAS CLASSICUM Yesterday the "Quarterly" came out.
