The ifoll was called and the minutes react and ftpproved. The tennis court committee re¬ported and the report was accept¬ed by motion. Regular weekly business was waived this week because of prep¬arations for the Classicalia. The meeting was adjourned by motion.—Eleanor Weeks, secre¬tary. BEETHOVEN WEEK Some one wrote recently "March 20-26 is the most important mus-ical week of the decade, fiL , iig one (hundred years sincf wroui "Finis" to the crea&Tv. p-1 tivitics of the greatest musical genius of all time." Musrti, to Beethoven, was no agreeable pastime, no pleasant di¬version. It was his life. So ab¬sorbed was he in It that all other matters seemed of no importance. Many interesting anecdotes are told of his passion; for instance, he bought a horse to ride and then 1 ergot, about it so that the horse came near dying of starvation; he sat five minutes for his portrait to bo painted. Then jumped up and sat at the piano and played for hours in entire oblivion of the presence of the painter; he i composed many melodies while walking and while doing so would talk or sing wildly to himself and gesticulate in such manner as to frighten both animals and people. But who minds the little idosyncrasies now? His music and his reputation belong to the ages. CO-OPERATIVE ENTERPRISE Putting on the Classicalia is a great co-operative enterprise. About twenty lively active com¬mittees are working assiduously every" afternoon and evening to insure every one a good time at the Classicalia. At the party it-self all the members of these com¬mittees will be working hard throughout the evening with the same laudable object in view. This will be a fine example of scores of people forgetting self and serv¬ing others. The Classicalia is a worthwhile institution from this standpoint alone. No other fea¬ture, function or activity of the school year affords such fine op¬portunity of cooperating work. TEACHERS HELP When teachers are ill or called away—other teachers frequently find it possible to double classes and thus take care of the ab¬sent teacher's classes. When Mr. Beeson was out recently, Messrs. Corey and Nelson took care of his classes. During Mr. Kapple's ab-sences this week Mr. Beeson and Mr. Corey are taking care of his class work. WEDDING BELLS Again the wedding bell rings for one of our dear lady teachers. Now it is Miss Lucille Owen of the Physical education department that' been and went and gone and don'it. This fine young woman lead Harry Clark of Burley, Idaho to the marriage altar Wednesday at Logan and made him hers for life and then some. Mr. and Mrs. Clark have taken one of the Mole apartments on Adams avenue where they will be at home after today to their many Ogden friends. The bride has the best wishes of High school faculty and stu¬dents—especially the ' girls who have come to know her well and love her much. AS for the groom —to have Miss Owen for a bride is happiness enow, we trow. SCHOOL NONSENSE Teacher: "Why are you late, Tom?" Tom: "Because the bell rung before I got here" Mr. Oberhansley Is troubled about his bank account. Last week his account was as follows: Bal. Monday deposited $50.00 Tuesday checked 20.00 30.00 Wednesday checked 15.00 15.00 Thursday checked 9.00 6.00 Friday"; checked ft.00 0.00 What he cannot see is how he got the balance $30,$15,$6, total $51.00. Who will help him? Mr. Smith:- "Kathryn, what do you know about the orchid fam¬ily?" Tx Kathryn: "Please, Mr. Smith, my mother has forbidden me to indulge in any family gossip." "Ruth" said the father, "your young man stays until a very late hour. Hasn't your mother said anything about this?" , Ruth: "Yes, dad, mother says men haven't altered a bit." TO THE UNKNOWN TEACHER And what of teaching? Ah, tttere you have the worst paid, and ti best rewarded, of all the vocations Dare not to enter it unless you love it. For the vast majority of men and women it has no prom¬ise of wealth or fame, but they, to whom it is dear for its own sake, are among the nobility of mankind. I sing the praise of the unknown teacher. Great generals win cam¬paigns, but it is the unknown sol¬dier who wins the war. Famous educators plan new sys¬tems of pedagogy, but it is the unknown teacher who delivers and guides the young. He lives in obscurity and con¬tends with hardship. For him no trumpets blare, no chariots wait, no golden decorations are decreed. He keeps the watch along the bor¬ders of darkness and makes the attack on the trenches of ignor¬ance and folly. Patient in his daily duty, he strives to conquer the evil powers which are the enemies of youth . He awakens sleeping spirits. He quickens the indolent, encourages the eager, and steadies the unstable. He communicates his own joy in learning and shares with boys and girls the best treas¬ures of his mind. He lights many candles which, in later years, will shine back to cheer him. This is his reward. Knowledge may be gained from books; but the love of knowledge is transmitted only by personal contact. No one has deserved bet¬ter of the republic than the un¬known teacher. No one is more worthy to be enrollfeSd ifc a demo¬cratic aristocracy, "king of him¬self and servant of mankind."— Henry Van Dyke. Ogden High THE NI&HT OF NIGHTS . The night draws near— My heart beats high— The Classicalia Ball is nigh. My harrowed soul, has easy grown, For soon the secret will be known.„ Three weeks I've suffered agony- Wondering who our queen rail be. But wait—I know which one of them—- Don'.t tell—her name begins with "M." —N. WILBURR. CLASSICALIA DELUXE The Classicalia to be given to¬night in point of beauty and splen¬dor will surpass any other that the school has ever given. The "Venetian carnival theme" will be carried throughout,-—the pageant¬ry ..under Miss. Beck and Miss. Corliss the dancing under Mrs. Sophia Reed, the music under Mrs. Bowen are all features that will tend to give the Classicalia unusual distinctiveness. The booths are unique and artistic and every feature of the Classicalia has been worked out with excep¬tional care. It is to be a gala event. EASY TO KEEP AFLOAT If every person know that it is impossible to sink if one keeps his arms under water and moves his legs as if he were going up¬stairs, and that one may keep this motion up for hours before fatigue ends it, there would be a few drownings. Such is the fact. Ex¬cept where cramps render motion impossible, the man who gets an ; involuntary ducking has small I chance of drowning. He can gen- 1 erally keep afloat until liis res¬cuers appear. The people who drown are those who frantically wave their arms out of water and lose their self-possession. —-Exchange.

STUDENT'S PLEDGE In the interest of civic pride, students have been asked to sub- - scribe»to the following pledges for the remainder of the school year: j I pledge myself— 1. To keep off the school lawn. 2.—To refrain from scattering . papers, refuse, litteu in school buildings or oil school grounds. 3.—-To refrain from marking or defacing school buildings or prop¬erty. 4.—To use my influence to help I others in keeping, school rooms, I hallways aid grounds neat and-, clean. ' The. pledge has helped very ma- I torially in improving the appear- ance of building and grounds, j MAN AND DESTINY "Phyhiicel necessity moves man ; to labor. Mental necessity moves him to reason. Spiritual neoes- i , sity moves him to believe that life has a meaning that the met h- j. od of it is progress. The wind • of destiny blows him over toward 1 a large hopefulness. It also drives him to see his direction is up¬ward." —Dearborn Independent. SOME SENTENCE Students have heretofore been: required to .study, Addison, DeQuincy, Burke and others fori i "style" in composition. In the near future we may be. required ] to study Pres. Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia. The third ; sentence. In his annual report to the board contains 1743 words, 12 5 commas, and 32 semi-colons. ORIGIN ti*'1 WORDS Mapynioderiwords attd»phrasv ire derived from our habits of :'ievour»ig food. For instance, VJiag" originally meant to gnaw or: nibble; "fuet" meant to eat or devour; 'remorse" meant to bite,, and "worry" txr strangle..' ?c The earliest measurements were I based on parts of the human body. The "inch", represented the length of the thumb joint; the "hand" was the four inches across the hand; the "span" nine inches was the distance from the end of the thumb to the end of the little finger. BE FAIR Some'parents in the treatment of their children err 'on the side of too much severity.' The slight¬est infraction of a household rule brings a severe reprimand, but when a child has done something really praiseworthy it is passed over in silence. Be fair. When your child is deserving of com¬mendation, commend him. He will strive just as hard to win your praise as he will to avoid your censure. BOOKER GOT THE JOB When Booker Washington as a boy applied at Hampton institute to enter that school, the head teacher said, "The adjoining reci¬tation room needs sweeping. Take a broom and sweep it." Before the teacher inspected the work, Booker had swept it thoroughly three times, and four times had applied the dust cloth to wood-
