THE O. H. S. TIGER, OCTOBER 4, 1922. Page 5 GREETING FROM THE PRINCIPAL Hearty greetings to the students of the Ogden High School! We be¬gin the year 1922-23 under most pro¬pitious circumstances. We shall have the largest student body the Ogden High School has ever had. We be¬lieve also that we have students of little higher calibre than ever before; they are a little better trained. The effects of the splendid training in our Junior High Schools is beginning to be reflected in the students that come to us. The establishment of honor rolls in our school is an incentive to high¬er scholarship and better work. The many intellectual contests, Es¬say writing, declamation, public speak¬ing, debating, are proving an addi¬tional incentive to more earnest ef¬fort. Planning school expenditures in ac¬cordance with definite budget policy is giving valuable training in up-to- date business methods. We believe also that we have a stronger and more efficient teaching corps than we have ever had be¬fore, so that we shall be able to do a little better work. Certainly we ought to do a little better every year. Im¬provement is life's big aim. The janitorial force has been en¬larged and we believe that our build¬ing will be kept clean and attractive. The fact that the entire building has been rekalsomined and painted dur¬ing the summer will contribute much to this end. In addition to all these things we have the hearty encouragement and endorsement of the Board of Educa¬tion. The members of the Board are determined that our school shall be second to none. The superintendent of schools is very desirous that the high school, the highest of the school system, shall in every department and feature be efficient, commendable and worthy. Now students, its up to you! We believe you .are going to do your part. You are full of zeal, energy, loyalty, pep, and I'm sure your are going to acquit yourselves nobly. Surely you'll find that five dollars somewhere to pay the student body fee, and thus assure the officers that you are behind them, and that you expect the school to do big things during 1922-23.. What with Mr. Kapple, Mr. Wangsgard, Mr. Croft and the others giv¬ing athletics a new impetus, we are sure to win laurels in this activity. So also with all other activities: they will be fostered, encouraged, boosted. The school paper will again be a credit to the school and will keep you informed on all school matters. All hail to school year 1922-23. May it surpass our fondest anticipations. CLASSICUM BOX READY FOR CONTRIBUTIONS The Classicum box will be placed at some prominent place in the build¬ing for the purpose of receiving con¬tributions for the Tiger. Let it not be understood that this box is a part of the architecture of the build¬ing or a convenient place to deposit gum wrappers. Last year the Clas¬sicum box was treated as if there were some poisonous reptiles in it waiting a chance to spring upon any one who might get courage enough to venture near it in order to contribute some good joke or yell or news that would be deserving of publication in the Tiger. Please recognize this box as medium by which you can help to make your school paper what you want it. Remember The Sweetest Girl The Sweetest Day ? SATURDAY Oct. 15th Shupe-Williams Candy Co. MAKERS OF Preferred Chocolates JOKES Eleanore: "I wouldn't marry the handsomest man that ever lived." Emmerett: "That's too bad, I was just going to propose." Miss Bealieu (In English): A syllable is long if followed by two continents." Mrs. Coolidge (in history): "Mar¬cus, find out all you can about the life of a Sea." Marcus M.: "Can I take the Dead Sea?" Hassett S.: "If you stood in my shoes, what would you do?" Phil R.: "I'd get a shine." Mrs. Coolidge: "Take all the next chapter for tomorrow." Bill S.: "Do we have to finish the book this week?" She: "Mary says I have the pret¬tiest mouth she's ever seen." He: "Indeed! Well I'd put mine up against it any time." We wonder if Wrigley's pet phrase is "By Gum." Max C.: "Desk hosiery seems to have gone out of style." Lamont: "What do you mean, "Desk hosiery?" Max: "Roll tops." "Goin' in that house over there?" asked the first tramp. "I tried that house last week, and I ain't goin' there any more," replied his pal. "Fraid on account of the dog?" "My trousers are." "Trousers are what?" "Frayed on account of the dog." A feast of the imagination often lacks food for thought. In cold weather it is a good idea to serve potatoes with their jackets on. Co-ed: Why do they call it the weeping willow? It doesn't weep, does it? Ed: No, it used to, but one day the fir tree said to it "pine knot." A young lady, while visiting, was invited to a dinner party, to be given in her honor. When she was told that she was to sit on the right hand of her host, she dropped in a dead faint! Teacher: " Has anyone else a question?" Sleepy one: "Yes, what time is it?' "Did you notice that girl who just passed?" "The one with the bright blue sweater, silk stockings with roses about three inches apart, sport shoes, bobbed hair and --?" "Yes." "Not particularly." Teacher: "What is a silent ma¬jority?" Stup: "Er, I guess it's two men when there's a woman present." George—"I've got a bad head this morning." Mrs. George—"I'm sorry, dear. I do hope you'll be able to shake it off before dinner." Why does a chicken lay an egg? Because if she dropped it it might break. Helen—"Do you like moving pic¬tures?" Mack—"I should say not. I al¬most broke my neck hanging the darn things." "You passed me today and never recognized me." "What? Were you the girl with the open-work sand colored stock¬ings ?" "It's the little things in life that tell," said the girl as she dragged her kid brother from underneath the sofa. A blind man at a bathing beach is no more unfortunate than a one- armed man calling on two sisters. Mother: "I wish that the papers would quit writing about these moun¬tain moonshiners." Daughter: "Why, mother?" Mother: "Because I want father to take us to the seashore this summer.” Well Shod is Half the Journey" LET US SOLVE YOUR FOOTWEAR PROBLEMS You'll Be Satisfied with the Style, Comfort, and Wear Displayed in Our School Shoes. — Make us Prove it! THE FAMILY SHOE STORE SCHOOL SHOE HEADQUARTERS 352-24-th Street Ogden, Utah OGDEN HIGH PESTS The bird who charges down the aisle when you're trying to write a theme. The bobbed-haired Jane who sits in front of you and combs her hair all over your desk. The poor simpleton who occupies your seat during your vacant period and uses your desks as a waste- basket. The freaks who wait two weeks before they enroll. The teachers who delight in giving themes. The frantic freshmen who charge around the corner without giving their warning signal. The girl who insists on your help¬ing her when you're busy. —O-H-S— JOKES Young woman in music store: "Have you 'Kissed Me in the Moon¬light?" Clerk: "Nope, I'm a new man here. Maybe it was the other fellow." News Item—"Suckers Are Now Biting." We wonder why they put in the "now?" LOST If the GENTLEMAN who bor¬rowed but forgot to return Mac Boyd's wheel, will kindly return it to Mr. Boyd's home, the unfortunate Mr. Boyd will gladly give unknown gentleman the mudguards so that he may use them through the hard win¬ter that is expected. Mr. Boyd also wishes to announce that he has a pair of pants guards at home which go with the wheel, and if the above agreement is not satisfactory, he will gladly make the deal complete by leaving the pants guards at some secluded spot so that the present holder of the said wheel may get them.
