PLENTY OF PLAY All work and no play would make school a dull place. No one is being worked too much. That is certain, for in the halls of our educational institution linger students who are continually ex¬pressing their happy characters. Many, especially the girls, approach friends and throw their arms around them and sometimes, even, affec¬tionately kiss each other in fun. Then linking fingers together, two comrades spryly walk down the hall. Others laughingly chase each other upstairs, downstairs, in rooms, out of doors, in a playful fashion to argue or dispute the rights to claim a particular object. Some giggle and have a great time laugh¬ing over the antics of a favorite or express their vivacious, enthus¬iastic spirit by galloping on roller skates for the benefit of spectators. Nearly everyone is in good humor, and their cheerful dispositions can easily be detected in such warm, invigorating weather when one can radiate frivolity. And why not? These same individuals not only happen to maintain the morale of the student body but a spirit of happiness as well. May they con-tinue to do so.—Merrily. IN TYPING ROOM The sound of quickly clicking keys sharply fills the air as the nimble fingers of students deftly strike key-boards on typewriters of motley as¬sortment. There is an incessant hum wrought from pounding of machines by boys and girls endeavoring to im¬prove their skill. Efficiency hovers in all parts of the room wherein typing is taught. Especially is this true when speed and accuracy tests are given often. During some of the days each week an exercise or story is given to each member of the class to type in an allotted time. After ten or fifteen minutes, everyone ceases work, checks errors, totals the mistakes and averages the words typed a minute. In this way an accurate and constant record can be kept of the student's ability and conscien¬tiousness and how much his work is improving. Because the speed and accuracy tests so help everyone to know what his standing is, may we con-tinue to have many in the future. AN EXCELLENT TALK The Rev. P. F. Kennedy gave an inspirational and complimentary address before the assembly Friday on the subject of Sportsmanship. He declared sportsmanship comes straight from the heart and he named the character elements that go to make up a real sportsman. He also complimented the O. H. S. on the fine sportsmanship that he has observed in the school during the past several years. Thanks Father Kennedy. 3. ELECTION HELD BY O.H.S. CLUB; PROGRAM GIVEN Three-Week Terms Used; Students Reminded of Activity Duty OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen. Associate Editor. Once again the three weeks have rolled around and new officers have been elected for the Clever Conver¬sationalists' club. The new presid¬ing officers are Helen Mansfield, president; Eloise McKay, vice pres¬ident; Barbara London, secretary; Barbara Clark, reporter. The club feels sure these new officers will dispose of their duties in as capable a, manner as the former officers. We all wish them luck for the com¬ing three weeks. After the election a clever pro¬gram was given. The members of the club had to bring some object or a diagram to school and explain it and tell how it worked. There were some very clever ones, such as the directions for peeling a banana. The talk was given by Ruth Greenwell. The favorite one, however, was Helen Mansfield's. She gave a full explanation about a box of chocolate cookies. Afterwards she passed them around the room and the club fully enjoyed both the ex¬planation and the cookies.—Bar-bara Clark. RESPONSE DESIRED No social or business organization can survive without the willing and unanimous co-operation of its mem¬bers, likewise the functions of Og¬den High school will not succeed in attaining desired goals unless each and every member will enthusiastic¬ally support school activities. Were you present at the school play? Did you see the art exhibit? Do you attend basketball games? Did you go to the Accolade? De¬plorable as it is, not over 50 per cent of the students could truth¬fully answer "yes" to these ques¬tions. The school needs the help of everyone in order that all dances, plays, basketball games and other activities will be so widely advertis¬ed, aided and encouraged that these features will be a great credit to members of school. Since the per¬fection of every production reflects upon the character of perform¬ers, all of us should be only too willing to do our part in making school functions successful. LINCOLN LECTURE On Wednesday, March 6, Dr. Louis A. Warren, a life-long stu¬dent of Abraham Lincoln and a lec¬turer of national reputation, will address Ogden High school students on the subject of Abraham Lincoln. This promises to be another out¬standing assembly of this memorable school year. PASTOR SPEAKS The Rev. Philip Swartz, gave a Very interesting lecture before the Ogden High school teachers Mon¬day evening. He defined religion as "that cause to which one gives his life" and on that basis declared the teachers are in a very real sense. It is they who are required to bear teachers of religion, the torch of light and truth. The address was much appreciated. O.K. CLUB The Ogden High Kamera club, or¬ganized under auspices of Year¬book staff, has begun to function. Snap pictures are being exhibited in the school trophy cases. The exhibit will be changed frequently. Keep your eye on the O.K. club. ADAPTABILITY Many individuals preach about the numerous benefits of educa¬tion but some forget to mention the most practical point of all, why edu¬cation should be adapted to our everyday life. We can study all the fine arts, literature, music and dra¬matics that we want, but if we do not apply our learning to our voca-tion and avocations what advan¬tage could possibly be derived? Cer¬tainly, we won't climb the ladder of success if the blunders which we were taught not to make are not corrected, and the knowledge which we gained from school isn't used. One may ask, "What does educa¬tion really mean?" Education is the getting of wisdom, understanding, strength, greatness, physically, and mentally and morally. High schools and colleges will show you the way give you instructions, and furnish you finer working tools; but the real education is the journey you make, the strength you develop and the service you perform with these instruments and tools. Thus, the results of ambition can only be at¬tained if the knowledge learned from school and experience is ap¬plied to life. Remember, students, diplomas and degrees are merely prepara¬tions. When one is through with the books, the person is having a com¬mencement, not an endment. Though learning lightens the bur¬den greatly, the adaptability of ed¬ucation is the ticket to success. KEEP OFF It has been said that "the side¬walk is the shortest distance between two points." Or if you do not care for sayings, please keep off the grass. Now that the snow has gone (for the time being, anyway) we are in¬clined to walk on the grass instead of the walks. Under much abuse the lawns around our school will wear out. So for the sake of hav¬ing fine plots of grass when spring does come, let's keep off the grass.
