ZETA PHI XI Have you ever noticed how many small things lack attention in our school? There are so many small and simple things which, if they were attended to, would make our school a much better and more en¬joyable place to come to daily. If there were a new couch in the rest room, new books in the library, more pictures for the walls, more plants and flowers for the windows, and less tramping on the lawn, and more smiles and cheery greetings, how much pleasanter our day would be. It was toward this object that Zeta Phi Xi was working when its members filled the window boxes in the rest room with plants. This step was a small one toward the great objective, to be sure, but a sure one. Now instead of plain, drab boxes, in the window there are green ferns and by spring there will be beau¬tiful spring flowers blooming there to brighten the atmosphere of the building not only on the inside but on the outside as well. Zeta Phi Xi wishes to carry this idea on and to urge every other school club to do the same and t take up some objective for the bene fit of the school. After all, schoc clubs are or should be organized fo the betterment of the school; there fore, they are almost duty-bound t do something for the school if thei are to be called a school club. Therefore, no matter how trivia a thing a club wishes to take up, we wish everyone of them would do it; part to improve in some way or oth er our school and students. JUST CHATTER S.O.S. is the best club in high school. Ask the girls. Johnny, don't tell me that your Salt Lake girl friend is stopping you from getting around. Congratulations, Roy, after three years romance we hear that you finally succeeded in getting Dixie "that way" about you. Grant and Edna seem to affect each other the same way. Both pre¬fer each other but don't want the other one to know it. Bill Taylor, you shouldn't be so impetuous. Tsch. Tsch. Breaking La Vin's glasses when the lights went out on the I-Wanno-O party. SCHOOL DAYS Pour and a half months of learn¬ing have been completed in Ogden High school. It has been a semester of much drilling, and yet we have all enjoyed it and have gained, some useful knowledge. Many of us will be glad to start a new semester. This will bring the end of school for most of us, but many of us are anxious to get into the higher branches of learn¬ing. It would be wonderful if we were all given the opportunity of going to college. Several of us think that school is a waste of time. All of us have heard older people tell us that our school days are the best days of our lives. Prom any standpoint we can see that this is true. Our trou-bles come after we graduate. Let us greet the new semester with cheers. This is a new era in our school life. In every class we shall begin to study the things that interest us now. "Buckle down" and get to work. Our award will come in our later life.—Dolores Hartog. MANNERS STRESSED One of the things that an edu¬cated person should have is man¬ners. In the business world, a man is judged by his manners, as well as by other important things. I re¬call a story of three men who ap¬plied for the same position. In the manager's room, a book was lying on the floor. When the first man came into the room, he did not stop to pick up the book. The second man also ignored it. The third man quietly picked up the book, laid it on the manager's desk. He got the job because of his thoughtfulness in picking up a little thing like a book. He did not forget his manners. How many of us know etiquette but forget to observe it. In business, social, and family world, we should never forget our manners, for little courtesies bring bigger returns than we expect. If you should be a little ignorant of your manners, study an etiquette book.—Lilian Kadoike. OFFICERS ELECTED Last night at the regular meeting of Congress the semi-annual election of officers was held. Following are the new officers: President, Marie Manning; vice president, Marion Wheelock; secre¬tary, Verna Forbes; and treasurer, Lois Allen. We know that these new officers will further the prog¬ress and interests of the club and make for a better, more interesting Congress in the coming months. JUST IMAGINE THIS--- J. Bundy staying in school in the afternoon. B. Taylor being conceited. V. Tracy going steady with C. Woodcock. Cooke being engaged. Crane and J. Burton going on a vacation. R. Lowe sluffing school. G. Smith giving a big geometry assignment. TEACHERS CHANGE Miss Lamont Poulter has returned to school and has taken over her morning classes. T. O. Smith has returned to the part time school for morning work. STUDENTS GREGARIOUS Students seem to be more or less gregarious in the selection of sub¬jects. Last semester sociology was taboo; no one seemed to want to take it. This semester they have lit¬erally dropped into sociology classes by groups and crowds. 13. ACTION LOOMS IN OPERA 'JOAN OF NANCY LEE" Villains Nab Ship With Captain's Love and Bridesmaids OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen. Associate Editor. Hear ye. Hear ye. The most gi¬gantic, stupendous, colossal and magnificent production of the year is under way. Of course this feature could only be the Ogden High school opera, "Joan of the Nancy Lee." The annual opera has a reputa¬tion of being good, and this year it looks as if it would be bigger and better than ever before. The music this year is not as heavy as it has been in some years past, but this should only improve the calibre of the entertainment, as greater opportunity for action is afforded. Throughout the opera the songs are light and rollicking—typ¬ical of the sea. A group of gentlemen pirates, wo¬man haters all, whose captain takes to the sea because he has been be¬trayed by his love, (and incidentally falsely accused of treason by his black hearted cousin). And when this group of soft hearted villains captures a ship containing the cap¬tain's love and her bridesmaids re¬turning from Paris with the trous¬seau, well—then you have action and plenty of it.—Wayne Bundy. |
