Show MUST BE THE WEATHER Mr. T. O. Smith: You boys are meowing absolutely too much. You know, I throw people out after I tell them the third time. Mr. Hansen: Now, you children, you'll drive daddy insane. Mr. Hancock: Durramba ! ! Boys, sit down in your seats. Those girls can take gym without you watching them. Major Dyer: Get him a basket! Get him a basket! Do something quick. Get a strap and buckle it on him, then he can't drop that gun. Mr. Widdison: If someone will kindly wake those boys up, I'll try to continue with the lesson. Not dead but sleeping. Mr. Peterson: I've organized a special study period for all those boys who can't study during school hours. I don't know what's got into you lately. Miss McKay: Oh, Charles, surely you know that. Just get some com¬mon sense and the work will be easy. And they wonder why we dont 'get along!— Luxo R. C. FOR A DAY I'd love some time to go astray, And be a gypsy for a day— To sit before the roaring flame And hear those songs of gypsy fame, To wander 'neath a twinkling star , With folks who don't care who you are. The wind would blow my cares away— I'd be a gypsy one long day. —Elizabeth Parkinson. 16. SCHOOL EAGER TO GET COPIES OF YEARBOOK Beginning To Appreciate Value of Early Records OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen. Associate Editor. We express our thanks to Mrs. Wade Johnson for copies of the Classicum and also to the Woody Printing company for yearbooks of 1905, 1912 and 1914. We are just beginning to appre¬ciate the value of Ogden High school's early records. We invite our friends who have issues of 20, 30 and 40 years ago to make contrib¬utions to the high school providing they are of no particular service to them. We should like a complete file for the school. NO CONNECTION Fairy: What in the world could a fairy have to do with a history test? I looked at the blackboard again to make sure that I was right, but still I couldn't see how a fairy (or any other woman for that mat¬ter) could be classed as history. I cocked my head from side to side (I was, in reality, trying to peek on someone's paper, but people surely get hunch-backed when they get pondering over a paper). Finally I decided to close my eyes to see if that would help. Sure enough it did, for when I shut my eyes I could see (in imagination, of course) some of the most beautiful women. Still, when I stopped to think, I couldn't see the answer to that question. Again I turned to the question "Show What Harper's Ferry had to do With Slavery." Now, I decided to tantalize it or analyze it, or something similar. Maybe Mr. --- meant a picture show with the name "Harper's Ferry." I could clearly see how he beat her, and how she crumpled to the deck of his fairy—just a min¬ute, maybe he meant a fairy boat— that boat invented by a fairy to haul women across ditches so that men could have a little peace for a while. Again I glanced at the question, and I noticed that it said Harper's. I'll bet our teacher meant that the slaves had died and turned into fairies and thus became harp players. Gosh! that could not be correct though because they say that fairies are very white and one can see them in the dark and you sure¬ly could not see a darn fairy in the dark. Goodness me, the more I think the worse I get, so I guess I must answer the question like the guy behind me did. "Harper's fairy was a raft that was hauling slaves across the Columbia river in the year 1850, but a Ger-man gunboat shot it up, and killed all the poor little slaves (the brutes) —Royal Cragun, Luxo, R.C. A QUESTION Dear Editor: I am quite sure that there are a number of students, most of them seniors, who would like further in-formation regarding the senior class pins and rings. My question is this: "How much deposit is required to order a senior class pin?" I assure you that this information will be appreciated.—Curious Senior. Dear Curious Senior: A deposit of $2.50 for large and $2 for small, is required to order a senior class pin.—Editor. SLUFFING Most students are A.W.O.L. be¬cause of the monotony of school work. However, with some, it is a case of unpreparedness. Some stu¬dents after failing to study for a forthcoming exam, decide it would be easier to stay out and make it up later. This procedure, if suc¬cessful, is sometimes profitable. But if a student continues to do this he will eventually get caught. Any student who stays out either because he is tired of school, or be¬cause of fear of an exam, is under¬mining his character. He soon finds that it is pleasant and easy. How¬ever, if this same student stays in school, bears the monotony, faces his exams and takes his just des¬serts, he will find that not only is he respected by his teachers, but also he has a feeling that he has done the right thing by himself.— A. W. Wend. A. D. M. REPORT The following pledges were made members of Amigos Del Mundo, on Saturday, November 17: Seniors, Sarah Stephenson, Verla Cunning¬ham, Elaine Brown; juniors: Elsada Carlson, Thelma Redfield, Velma Hunter, Francis Parry, Elizabeth Price. A delightful buffet supper was served.—Floris Anderson. A GOOD RATE Ogden High school has secured a party rate of $3.40 for a trip to and from Pocatello on Saturday. We leave at eight-fifty a.m. and leave Pocatello about six p.m. the same evening. We invite any interested |to join our party. The rate applies to those only who join the party. Arrangements may be made to re¬turn Sunday or Monday, if desired. SCRIBBLIN'S Miss Ballinger feels called upon to state that she does not entirely agree with Mr. Merrill's ideas con¬cerning masculine and feminine ap¬parel. Better keep away from state pa¬trolmen, Jim, they are pretty tough. The Scribbler is suffering from a severe case of tributietus. After four long, hours of toil, he has just succeeded in finding something to rhyme with cursed. If you are seeking to be amused ask Phil for a peek at his short, short story. How did Salt Lake agree with you Max? Pat and Wayne seem to be having a rather hard time to recover from their trip to Butte. What was it, men, a blonde? What happened to my glass of water, Ernie? Wanted: An enterprising young archeologist to discover and com¬pile data on the ancient report of radiator romancing. Also wanted: The U. S. Marine band, the Ringling Bros., circus and Cab Calloway's Harlemaniacs to put a little pep into the seventh period study in 306B. COMMENTS Our football boys are making an¬other journey this week end. This time, however, we wish them luck at Pocatello, and hope that no more of the players will return with broken arms and other injuries. To the seniors a request is made to send in their orders immediately for class pins or rings. You had better hurry! High school is sponsoring its Thanksgiving dance this Wednes¬day, fellows. Have you your dates? Hooray! With delight and enthus¬iasm the student body at Ogden High school expressed its thanks to the board for the Thanksgiving holi¬days. On the last day, Wednesday, we remember that we receive our cards. |
