Earl Murray Mrs. Florence Newcomb — Faculty Advisor EDITORIAL "OUR HOURLY EXERCISE" "Thou shalt have daily breathing exercises in every class for a period of five minutes. This is a law of the authorities, and thou shalt obey it- students and faculty of the Ogden High School." A short time ago this resolution was passed, but to our utter dissa- pointment, it has not been enforced. A few of the teachers, either through forgetfulness or neglect, have failed to direct us in exercising our powers of breathing. Perhaps the teachets the unaware that'we delight in filling our lungs with pure, wholesome, fresh air, and thus avoid our lessons for five minutes. Even though we oppose this regu¬lation, we should" be law-abiding scholars and teachers. Therefore, we insist on strict enforcement of the law. Many of the students think that it is very humorous, but this constant reminder every hour will no doubt have a decided effect upon the stu¬dent. He will unconsciously stand, sit, and walk erect. Soon the by¬standers will say, "Ogden High School students are the straightest in the world." Let's live up to this commendation, students, so that we may be the straightest in physical stature and the straightest mentally and _ morally. Let honesty and in¬tegrity be our guiding stars! —Arlene Burk. —O-H-S— SPRING It would seem that spring has ar¬rived; not only does the warm gen¬iality of one day give way imme- iately to very wet rain on the next, but the grass has become suddenly very green, and the O. H. S. icebergs are quite depreciated. The little dogs that run the streets are frisking gayly about in the mud and the rivers about Ogden are swelling visibly. The market for used cars is better, as the general public has decided it is time for a new hack. The little animals of the woods are very happy, for now they can keep their skins a little longer. Very soon Twenty- fifth street will start to slide down the hill and all the auto drivers will cuss like the "dickens". The bugs and insects are beginning to partake of the atmosphere again; one girl has already discovered a bite on her neck. Even the street cars have the spirit— they are more irregular than ever. Children simply will go out without their coats, but they soon get sulphur and molasses for it. Bob is at last permitted to wear his abbreviated track paraphenalia legitimately—in¬stead of running around the halls he is now playing tag in the park. The fellows are going out for spring foot¬ball, and Leon has promised to teach us all to golf. Many celebrities have developed heart trouble. Reminds us of a song. The other day a fresh¬man sluffed three classes. Judging from his appearance it must have been spring fever. Besides all this, it is only five more months until school starts next year. Spring? Well, we guess so. —O-H-S— EXCHANGE REPORT THE CAMPANILE—Palo Alto High, California. We like the clever idea of having your "Grads" con¬tribute to a "Carry Me Back" issue of your paper, but where, Oh where are your jokes? THE TRAIL—Sidney High, Neb¬raska. "Dear Oracle: We are a tall young man of 16 members. Our girl sas we look almost as old as we think we do, but we modestly admit this is a sheer flattery. But we are—." "O Dearimi," we have been reading your "Oracle" again. We really started out to say that we think you have the livliest, peppiest jokes we have read for ages? THE WAXA BEACON—Waxa- hachie, Texas. We are quoting a Florist's advertisement from your in¬teresting paper: "The constant drip of water Wears away the hardest stone. The constant growl of Towser Masticates the hardest bone. The constant cooing lover Carries off the blushing maid. And the constant advertiser Is the one who gets the trade?" THE RED AND BLACK, Tampa, Florida. Your "almost-magazine" has more original material in it than any other exchange we receive. Your Liteary Department is especially pleasing. BROADCAST,, R. H. S., Rossville, Illinois. We like the name of your snappy paper. It is a live-wire. (Or would you asy "live-wire-less?) THE FORE, Santa Barbara, Cali¬fornia. "Old Faithful" again! THE CRIMSON, B. Y. C. Logan, Utah. We always welcome your paper with its splendid and inspiring editorials. WEST SIDE JUNIOR LIFE, Little Rock, Arkansas. You have certainly substantiated the proverb that "Little things are always done up in small parcels." Although your t^o-page paper is only five and one half inches wide and eight inches long, and put out by Junior High students, it has more in it, and is livelier than most Senior High papers. Really, it is whispered around that Our Editor likes it so well that he i carries your vest-pocket publication next to his heart until it is worn out almost unrecognizable when we fin¬ally manage to get it. Your editorial gives the keynote of your success— "Stick-to-itiveness." Indeed we did "weep at the tale of Archie T8 who met a girl whose name was K8, courted her at a fearful r8, and beg¬ged her soon to be m8, "I would if I could," said lovely K8, "I pity your unhappy st8, but alack and alas, you are too 18, I'm already married." Oh bitter f 8! Your column, "Things to Think About" is excellent—But we must stop quoting or we shall be printing a facsimile of your paper. THE LEVER, Colorado Springs, Colorado. Your motto "Give me a place to stand and I will move the world" is certainly something to live up to. RED AND BLACK REVIEW. Hannibal, Missouri. After reading your striking St. Pat's Irish Issue, we went about for a week thinking everyone was "a wearin' o' the green." —O-H-S— Yes We Have It! Everything for Office and School.

SEE Earl Murray Leon Keller Fred Gentsch Milton Kreines SOPHOMORE DUM-DUMS Dere once was a guy named Smitty He was slick yust like an eel He try to fool the cops by gosh And he land in the city bastile. Miriam Cain (seeing some calves run across a pasture): "Oh, what pretty cowlets!" Allyson Smitty: "Yes miss, they are pretty, but they're not cowlets, they're bullets." This is the story of Johnny McGuire, Who ran thru the town with his trousers on fire. He went to the doctors and fainted with fright, When the doctor told him his end was in sight. "I think I should have named Grant, 'Flannel'," said Mrs. Chandler.. "Why," asked Mrs. Jones. "Because he shrinks from washing." Dorothy's voice from dark parlor— "My, but you nose is cold!" Helpful brother—(to irate father who is suspicious of Clyde S.) "Gee Pop, I bet Rover is in the parlor again." —O-H-S— V. Scrowcroft:—"I wish I could revise the alphabet." A. Skeen: Why?" V. Scrowcroft: "I would put U and I a little closer together." J. Farnsworth: "If I made 100 per cent in this test, would you be sur¬prised?" Mrs. Coolidge: "No, I'd be sus¬picious." We see from Mr. Harmon's room that the girls have taken up high- jumping. A: "Have you ever seen Katskill mountains? To Z. No but I've seen cats kill mice. —O-H-S— GIRLS'DEBATING CLUB PUT OVER INTEREST¬ING ASSEMBLY The assembly of April 5, was held E under the auspices of the Girl's De- f bating Club. After several announcements, Rosalind Venema danced "Silver Slippers" accompanied by Wade Stevens. A clever stunt was pulled off by ft Krank Kreines and Flora Syrlin in the shape of a class prophecy. Sev-» eral things which we were anxious to , know about the prominent members of the class of '23, we revealed. Violet Dou gave a short reading, I after which several intimate portraits of faculty members of tender ages were given. Dorothy Vail, accompanied by Kattherine Fisher, sang "I love a Little Cottage." Freda Kreines and Rosalind Ven¬ema presented a "King Tut" dance, followed by a take-off by Marion Wallace and Dorothy Vail. The costumes were especially good. Some say this was the best as¬sembly of the year, others say some parts of it were all right. But speak¬ing the truth, we might say that it was a rattling good assembly! —O-H-S— For Those Who Care Brown’s Delicia Ice Cream More than satisfies It's smooth Velvety taste has created a perpetual demand.
