Show 3 24 24 Ogden High School Notes Today's slogan: Be on time; start on time. Be on the job all the time. Teachers were asked today to puc on the classroom bulletin a new slogan each morning, which is j to remind students of certain little matters that need attention. 1 Twenty years ago Senator Sorghum said: "Politics is the art of 3 turning influence into affluence." The reading of newspapers today 1 convinces one that there is alto- 1 gether too much truth in this statement. OGDEN'S NEEDS. Mayor P. P. Kirkendall says whenever he talks new city and county building someone rises up to say: "We need a new high school more." He says he's willing to compromise the matter and build both. Mr. Tupper of Oakland, Calif., recently made the observation: "Ogden--the city of fine business men and poor buildings." His observation may be paraphrased: "Ogden high school-the school of fine students and inadequate quarters." ARRANGING BOUTS. The athletic department is sponsoring a boys' night which they j expect to have soon. The following tentative program has been outlined: Boxing, three rounds-Bill Galbraith vs. John O'Neill, Gifford Winkler vs. Lewis Hanley, Dan Kennedy vs. Horace Miller, Bill Petty vs. Kenneth Mclntyre. Wrestling, 10-minute limit-Iceland Newman vs. Gene Greenwell. Alyson Smith vs. Iceland McClean, John O'Neill, editor of The Year Book, announces that the nook will be ready for distribution on or before May 18. ADVICE TO STUDENTS. "The goal toward which we are an moving is to make school talk home talk, and home talk school talk. When we have ,lone this we have battered down the la;. . bar- j rier which separates the home and the school. "Publicity is the oil which will stop the squeak of adverse school criticism." "If you are a student in a college, seize upon the good that is there. You get good by giving it. I You gain by giving-so give sym- pathy and cheerful loyalty to the I institution. Be proud of it. Stand I by your teachers, they are doing the : best they can. If the place is faulty, make it a better place oy an example of cheerfully doing your work every day the best you can. Mind your own business." The above advice was given by a prominent writer to a college student. it is good advice and is just as applicable to a high school student. HOME ON VACATION. Kenneth Hess, class of '22, and former editor of the Classicum, is home from Stanford to spend a part of a short spring vacation. Instructors Marshall and Chipman and their girls in domestic science classes we're recipients of many compliments for the way they prepared and served the banquet on Friday evening last. ! An effort is being made to secure tne services of Moroni Olsen for assembly on Wednesday. Mr. Olsen was formerly a high school instructor. A downtown business house has the worth-while motto: ."If your work suits you, tell others; if it does not tell us." We think this would be a good motto for our high school. SPRING RAPTURES. Friday was the first day of spring. A pupil handed his teacher this paragraph: I am at once elated and depressed; my blood thrills with a quickening elixir. I see a flash of green surprisingly bright; it has been months since that note has been struck. I can sense all the gracefully moving life around me, i loosened once more from its tight gray bonds. But of myself-my soul is touched-not my body. I i am touched by the beauty, but it 1 is not yet mine. I am sleepy. Spring has come. |
