Show 4-4-24 Ogden High School Notes Today's slogan; The members of the rifle team ; aim at the bulls eye; they either hit it or strike mighty near it. j What are you aiming at? j Dr. Thind addressed Miss Coritez' history classes on "Present Day Problems in India," at 11 ! o'clock this morning in the study , hall. AWAIT VERDICT. Our fate or fortune is sealed, j We have shot in the Hearst tour- i n'ament and have either won or lost. We believe we've won, of course. It seems hardly possible that any school can compare with Ogden in this shooting game. Anyway Sergt. Ed. Holloway says, "I am satisfied; the boys did their best." Whether we win or lose, Sergeant Myer says, Laurence Skeen will probably be the high man, J and will win the national medal. j April 15 will be the worst or best of days. We shall know then whether we have won or lost. William Ralph Inge. dean of St. Paul's cathedral, London, England, says "Religion is caught--not taught." Isn't the same, thing true as regards education? We think so. „ A WORD TO TEACHERS. This is what they say to business managers: "You,r success depends upon your ability to get the thing done, if the fellow to whom you assign the task fails to get it done, it is you who have failed, not he." Does this apply to teachers? David Lloyd George was converted to prohibition during his trip to America. He is now telling the world that America got the most out of the world war for "she got prohibition out of it."' The teacher who doesn't get a few hearty laughs out of his students every day has missed his calling. He ought to have been an undertaker. Miss Lillian Staenes, instructor of physical education department of the West Side High school, visited Ogden High school Thursday. Tardiness at classes is taboo at high school. Students who loiter or linger are permitted to "linger a littler longer" after school or write a little essay on the subject, "The Importance of Punctuality," or engage in some other pleasant pastime-just as a reminder, you know. A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE. . Modern day students who confidently expect to see further triumphs of democracy would do well to consider this beautiful tribute to President Harding by i Secretary of State Charles' E. Hughes: "He was a man of the people, indulging no consciousness of su- "periority, incapable of arrogance, separated from them neither by experience, nor pride, nor by ac- centricity. Nothing human was alien to him, and he had the divine gift of sympathy. "He wrought mightily for the prosperity of the nation and the peace of the world, but he clothed the exercise of power in a beautiful garme.it of gentleness," MY ANSWER. Have you seen beauty in frail hands Or felt the singing glory in the dawn ? Or dreamed the loveliness of far- off lands Like pale vague mirages in golden ' sands? And have you known the mystic pale Of moonlight over water and seen Through nights in early spring, lights trail Their loveliness like petals crushed and frail? II you have known these, how can vou Wonder at any beauty and ask if That is durable, will last, or thi'a is ttfue, Or just another fantasy conceived by you? -Madeline Reeder. |
