TO IMPROVE SCHOOL There are many ways to improve our school. One of the first and most important things a student can do is to conduct himself as the stu¬dent of a fine and honorable school should conduct himself. He should be loyal, above everything, in thought, speech, and actions. He must never berate his school and must always impress upon his lis¬teners that his school rates far above the average in both athletic and social activities; that the actions of his principal and teachers are al¬ways fair and just". When a stu-dent does all of these things, no one can say that he is lacking in school spirit. A student should take pride in keeping his school clean and always presentable. The school board spends great sums of money regu¬larly to better the conditions of school life and to perfect the equip-ment and facilties for teaching. They expect the student to justify these great expenditures and it is rank ingratitude on the part of the stu¬dent if he disregards these many favors and violates the trust that has been placed in him by destroy¬ing school property. A good student must feel that any insult offered to the school is a personal affront to himself. He must feel that upon the honor of the school depends his own honor and that to lower the school's standards is to lower his own. Fellow students, I think that if we would all look about for ways in which to improve the school we could find literally hundreds. Let us all become "school conscious" and I am sure that our school will soon be far in advance.—Burton Barrows. INJURY We were sorry to note a few days ago that Willard Whittaker, one of our football stars of last year, received a broken leg in football practice at Weber college. All of the seniors remember "Toots" and know of his exceptional ability on the gridiron. We are sure that We¬ber college will miss his services. The Ogden High school wishes you a speedy recovery, Willard! SCRAPBOOK EDITOR Students desiring to become scrapbook editor of the Notes may hand their names to one of the editors. The duty connected with this office is that of collecting every edition of the Notes. These copies are saved and placed in a scrapbook. The list of students desiring this office will be brought before coun¬cil, and this body will elect the scrapbook editor. FOOTBALL SCHEDULE The remaining games on the Tiger football schedule are as follows: Carbon, October 5; Bear River, Oc-tober 12; Box Elder, October 19; Lo¬gan, November 2; Weber, November 10. The games with Carbon, Box Elder and Weber are home games. LOCKING DOORS We have heen informed that some of the teachers in our school have a habit of locking the door after the second bell to prevent late stu¬dents from entering. Although the habit of punctuality should be im¬pressed upon all students, we won¬der if the locking of the door is in the best interests of the students in the room. The first rules of the school state that no classroom doors should be locked during school hours. To insure the protection of the student body, we urge the fac¬ulty to find some other way of en¬forcing punctuality. Our building is too much of a fire-trap to risk the lives of our students hy locking classroom doors while classes are in session. DICTIONARY Apple polishing—the difference between an "A" and a "B." Blind date—Formerly a very prominent feature at O. H. S. Now almost extinct, as the boys know better. Live and learn. Chairman—A person who tears his hair while his committee matches pennies. School Notes—The expression of student opinion if the opinion hap¬pens to be the same as the edi-tor's. Cords—acceptable for school wear only after they are able to stand erect in a corner alone.—From "Ex¬change." 6. SCHOOL USES DEGREE SCALE TO SHOW FUND Money Being Gathered For Student Association Activities OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL TOTES Emily Merrill, editor. Blaine Larsen, associate editor. Now that the hot .summer has gone, and cool weather is again upon us, most of the world has stopped watching the thermometer. Over our office door, however, we have a thermometer that is receiv¬ing as much attention as the one on your back porch last summer. In¬stead of measuring degrees of heat or cold, our thermometer measures money placed in the student body association fund. At a recent read¬ing, the mercury had raised to $1,200. Our aim this year is to reach the $2,000 mark in studerot body sales. We hope that the thermometer will go up in a hurry. Will you help? RADIO PROGRAM Editors of the Ogden High school notes are sponsoring a radio pro¬gram over station KLO every week, presenting a cross-secticfn of student life to the public. Last evening from eight to eight-fifteen tlae first pro¬gram was broadcast. Chester Chris- tensen sang "Song of Songs," La Vin Cragun gave a tap dance, Dick Baxter was interviewed, Blaine Lar¬sen gave an old man's interpreta¬tion of his school days, and school songs were played. This undertaking is one of the very finest that has e\fer been pro¬moted for the good old Ogden High school. But support is greatly needed to make the program suc¬cessful. The school is brimming with talent, and humorous incidents are constantly occurring. Those of you who have talent, please offer your services for the benefit of this school feature. The next radio presentation will be given this coming Thursday at the same time. Listen in. PLEASE REMEMBER The editors must now make it known that it is impossible to print all articles handed into the notes because of poor construction or fail¬ure to write concerning subjects suitable to print in a school publica¬tion. We must have news! We en¬courage you to write your own ideas, no matter how contrary to estab¬lished policy they mray be. Don't be afraid to express yourself! How¬ever, articles written for the pur¬pose of degrading the character of any person or organization will not be printed. Confine your ideas to the extent that you do not become radical or seem foolish. Remember, students, we urge you to write, but please be temperate.— Editors. A RAINY DAY Outside, the rain dripped steadily from the roof, the wind moaned disconsolately, and "the day was cold and dark and dreary." Grad¬ually, nature's melancholy affected the spirits of the students in the study halls, and they sat staring moodily out the windows. The rain drummed louder still, increasing the gloom, but, as they sank ever deeper into the "Slought of Despond," a lilting melody was heard from down the hall. In that other room, the students showed happy, smiling faces, and all the dreariness of the outside world was forgotten. They sang, and, as the joyful tune rang out, the usual cheerful dispositions of the students in study hall reasserted themselves. All of which, students, just goes to show the power of music; so why j not spend the dull seventh period "studies" this winter in the music room with the mixed chorus?— Wayne Bundy.
