ANNUAL O.H.S. CLASSICALIA PLANS MADE Will Resemble Venetian Carnival With Regal Ceremony The annual Ogden High school Classicalia, to be held at the Ber¬thana, Friday evening, March 18, promises to be the most gorgeous array of color ever presented at this yearly function. The motif for this year's Cassicalia is the Vene¬tian carnival in a dazzling riot of color typical of the festive days of Venice in her feudal glory. Ev¬ery event and decoration is being planned to reflect the atmosphere of old Italy. The students and the faculty of the school are mak¬ing an effort to have all those at¬tending in costume. The outstanding event of the evening will be the presentation oC the queen at 9 o'clock. For three weeks the school has been con¬ducting a series of elimination contests to determine the girl who is to be honored as queen of the Classicalia. From a list of fif¬teen candidates, one has been se¬lected, but whether it is Miss Mel- ba Bowman or Miss Margaret Sto¬rey, no one knows, nor will know, not even the successful one until she is decked in her regal robes on the eve, of the Classicalia, The queen's procession this year is to be the greatest in the his¬tory of Ogden High school Classicalias. Fifty people, a number four times as large as has ever been used before; will be in the procession. With the exception of some of the dancers, these boys and girls are all members of the senior class. All of the original fifteen queen candidates are to be given prominent parts. No expense has been scared to make the procession the most elaborate and colorful ever seen in Ogden. The entire setting reflects the ancient custom of the crown¬ing of the Venetian Doge, or queen. To the strains of Italian grand opera, amid the gayly cos¬tumed flower girls, ruit venders, gondoliers, Sicilian peasant wom¬en and th& ever-present slaves of the medieval Venetian period, and with a bafckground of black and glittering splendor the.queen will: be jinaeunced. Preceding the queeifr ,re to be churchmen with lighted tapers, and a soldier in all the splendor of the old mili¬tary official with drawn sword. These- signify the ancient belief of spiritual and temporal power to maintain the dignity and grandeur of the government of Venice. The queen in all the glory and pomp attending the ancient regal pro¬cession, followed by her train bearers, maids and dancers, will then be revealed to the public. .

Show first the hidden truths, the Shadowed way. Unseen, unsought, but by the chosen few, Yv'ho, ever seeking Knowledge, turn from west To wait and .watch the light of coming Day. - —CARMA SMUIN. A GREAT WORK What with the- state tournament in baseball and with our own great Classicalia this week, we hardly know whether we can real¬ly settle down to work this week. The teachers are driving hard but they are having a most difficult time of it. INTERESTING, IF TRUE W7e have received several cop¬ies of the new 13-month calendar from H. C. Apgar of Elizabeth, New Jersey. Mr. Apgar says the calendars have been "approved by the League of Nations' National chamber of commerce and unof¬ficially by every department of the United States government." TEN DOLLARS REWARD Ran away from the subscriber, on the night of the 15th instant, two apprentice boys, legally bound, named William and Andrew John¬son. The former is of dark com¬plexion, black hair, eyes and hab¬its. They are much of a height, about 5 feet 4 or 5 inches. The latter is very fleshy, freckled face, light hair and fair complexion. . . . I will pay the above re¬ward to any person who will deliever said apprentices to me in Raleigh, or I will give the above reward for Andrew Johnson "alone. Raleigh, N. C., June 24, 1924. James J. Selby, Tailor. The interesti"-t thing about the above is the the said Andrew Johnson bee , , a., the president of the United States. SHRUBBERY ORDERED. Emil Hansen, landscape gard¬ener of the Utah Agricultural college, plotted the high school grounds on Thursday last, indi¬cated where shrubbery should be planted and named the shrubs that are to be plantedv This is but the beginning of the improve¬ment of the school grounds, a movement sponsored by high school students. WINS SCHOLARSHIP Miss Isabelle Carter, '23 High school, who will take her degree at Gooding college this spring has been given a teaching scholar¬ship at Gallaudet college, Wash¬ington, D. C., for the years 1927- 2 8. We extend to Miss Carter our congratulations on this new success. NONE EXCUSED As in the past we announce again this year that students are not excused from school 3(to at¬tend the tournament. The' games oc6ur in the late aft.erh.oon and evefeuig and there is no reason whyl'students should miss classes to ailvnd. Students who Jtofc? a r.eatb:Ki.fitprost in school will not he absent.'. .'H. FINE WORK That flag questionnaire 'put out by lit'' American legion auxiliary was a fine patriotic exercise- one that was abundantly worth while. The offering of prizes,' however, put the legionnaires in a rather bad box—like the old woman in the shoe, they have so many essays to read and prizes to offer that they do not know what to do. The High school teachers fore¬saw what was coming and so did not compete, for prizes, although the questionnaire was carefully answered in all class of the High school. We re< it as one of the finest exi it-that has come to the schoo-. in recent, years. THE STUDENTS I LIKE Now speaks, up the teacher and tells what kind of students he likes: 1—I want students who take their work seriously, who have ambitions to develop their char¬acter and abilities so they will become useful citizens. 2—I want students who will be considerate of others. This , is, not only a mark of good sportsman¬ship but a mark of culture. 3—1 want loyal students. I want students to be loyal to their school, to their class, to their country, and above all loyal to the highest and best within them¬selves. 4—r-I want students who are ac¬tively, eternally honest. 5--I want happy students; stu¬dents who are always optimistic and cheerful. 6--I want students who have high regard for public property. 7--I want students who render obedience to me 'because of their confidence in mo and not. because of their fear of me. 8—I want growing students, students who conscientiously do their best day by day and conse¬quently grow, grow, grow 3-16-27 Ogden High School Notes LIFE Let me live my life from year to year With forward face and unreluctant soul; Not hurrying to, nor turning from the goal; Not mourning for the things that disappear In the dim past, nor holding back in fear From what the future veils; But with a whole And happy heart, that pays its toll To Youth and Age, and travels on with cheer. So let the way wind up the hill or down, O'er rough or smooth, the jour¬ney will be joy; Still seeking what I sought when but a boy, New friendships, high adventure, and a crown. My heart will keep the courage of the quest, And hope the road's last turn will be the best. —Henry Van Dyke, (1852-- ) FROM WASHINGTON Students might learn something from the following points in George Washington's career: 1. He never quit because he was criticised. 2. He never wondered how much, he was going to get out of it. 3. He never complained be¬cause he was not appreciated. 4. He never struck because th« hours were long. 5. He never violated the con¬stitution Wihen it was personally inconvenient. FRIDAY’S ASS BLY The assembly on Fr at 11:15 ! o'clock will be "all ime-ltaj- iajp.''—preparatory b grand Viennese Classicalia Friday evening. It will be Group singing li Funieula”; Italian dar uth Paine and Llewelyn Chr en; Italian readings, Frank R mussen; Accordion selection, Vance Bybee; The Venician song, Nondas Brown and Mary Addleson; Parodies on songs, Bella Herscovitz. BEETHOVEN PROGRAM The Beethoven Centennial will be observed at the high school on Tuesday morning next by a con¬cert by the Baldwin Radio com¬pany under the auspices of Thom¬as Giles, professor of music at the University of Utah. The concert will be given from 8:30 to 9:39 o'clock. The public is invited. EAST BAND TO PLAY On Friday, March 2 5, the East High school band of Salt Lake will give a concert at 11:15 o'clock in the assembly hall. PROPERLY DRESSED Anyone who attends : the Class¬icalia Friday night in his own character will certainly feel very much out of place. Ninety-nine per cent of those who attend will appear in the guise of some char¬acter other than his own, and con¬sequently one can find no place for one's self at that function. Get in the swim—decide who you are going to be—and then be that somebody. COLONIAL DAUGHTERS The National Society of Colonial Daughters announce today their annual national essay contest, The society offers to each school a gold medal and certificates. Es¬says are on civic and patriotic subjects of from 300 to 1000 words. The following subjects are recommended: 1. Patriotism in Time of Peace. 2. Why We Go to College. 3. The Use and Value of Na¬tional Flags. 4. Effect of Forest Destructioi on Climate. 5. The Unknown Soldier. VALUABLE DISCUSSION The state director of vocation¬al training, I. N. Noall, gave a very interesting address before the high school teachers Tuesday on 'The Adjustment of the High School Program to Pupils' Needs." The talk was thought-provoking and interesting. Prof. Mosiah Hall, state supervis¬or of rehabilitation, and Miss Ma- tilde Peterson, state primary sup¬ervisor, also passed a short time at high school. REPRESENTING O. H. S. Coach Dixon Kapple, Manager Jay Glen and the following play¬ers are representing Ogden High school at state tournament this week: Francis Hearn, Gilbert Moesinger, Blaine McMurrin, Rob¬ert Livingston, Russell Robinson, Gordon Larson, Lowell Newey, El¬ton Knapp. ONE FAULT One inexcusable fault is this; that one should not do his >a&L' or at least something near his best. If one learns little else in high school he should at least learn to tackle problems vigorously, and develop the habit of stick-to-it- ive-ness. DEMONSTRATION More and more teachers are em¬ploying visualization in class in¬struction. On Tuesday in auto mechanics class Mr. Bergstrom had a moving picture illustrating every step in the entire oiling process in the automobile.

Smith and Mr. Coray we shall try to make this year I the most successful in the history of the Forum.—Lee Cain, reporter.
