BAND APPRECIATED Members of the band feel slighted, as they were not mentioned in the school notes concerning the cadet hop. After all, no great enjoyment is derived from working for days in preparation for the event and then being left out when the laurels are passed around. You will remember the notes remarked about the perfect rhythm of the exhibition company. We wonder if the rhythm would have been quit as perfect without the help of t band..—Glen Wilde. Editor's note: We wish to expl this article was received before publication of an article concerning the band. On February 28 there appeared in the notes an article commending the band on its fine work at the cadet hop. It was the editor's original inten¬tion to publish two articles on the success of the cadet hop, one on the crack company and one on the O. H. S. band. This we have done. We append here also a note from Mayor Perry on our excellent band. Certainly we are all very, very proud of our marvelous band; "Dear Mr. Merrill: The Ogden High school band made a splendid showing in our CCC holiday parade and through you I send them my heartiest thanks. The co-operation they gave us was a major feature in making the day a successful one so far as showing our friendly attitude toward the CCC. "Wishing the band continued suc¬cess and tendering my personal greetings to each and every member, I remain. . . " TO THINK ABOUT All about us we see people who constantly remind us of someone else; people who either purposely or unconsciously imitate someone else. Sometimes our idols are fam¬ous persons, generally someone whc is successful in the type of endeavor in which we are interested. At first, one who follows the example of some successful person finds him¬self advancing, but soon all advance¬ment ceases and he becomes stag¬nant. In fact, it is evident that the j only way to amount to anything is to be ourselves. All day, we are actors. From the moment we come down and meet our families at breakfast to the time we say good night we are always acting—covering up our real feelings and desires. In fact, the only time we are really ourselves is in the privacy of our own rooms. The minute some other person enters, we become something entirely different. Why should we hide our true selves? Perhaps we are afraid that our friends would not like us if we discarded our protective covering. But would it not be better for them to either like or dislike our true selves than to like a mere imitation of someone else? While the original may be very valuable, an imitation is never worth much, no matter how clever it may be. Emerson goes even farther and says we should say exactly what we think and feel; that if we do not enjoy a conversation we should leave or say so instead of smiling asininely. However, that is too much of a good thing. We must use tact; or we should find ourselves without anyone we could call a friend. — W. B. 3.

INQUIRY MADE Dear Editor: We are sending this to you that you may print it for the offender to see and answer. It has been rather forcibly brought to our attention that a well known Ogden High school boy has been keeping very steady company with one of Weber County High school's prettiest girls, the initial of her first name corresponding to that of his last. We are proud to be your rival in sports but need we contest you for the love of our own classmate?—The Loyal Warriors. CONFUCIOUS, HE SAY—. Never slap a man in the face when he is chewing tobacco. All the cheap skates are not on hockey players. A bone in the pocketbook is worth two in the head. School work is about as welcome as something moving in a raisin cake." If you can't make both ends meet, make one vegetable. Money means nothing to me, I , have none of it. The man who is up a tree looks down on many dogs. England took Ghandi but they didn't get his goat.—Ling Poo. SWALLOWS HUNT WOOL PERRY, N. Y. — (UP)— Wool thieves in the persons of swallows have made their appearance here. Noticing several of his sheep with bald spots on their backs, Charles Nestor, farmer, kept a close watch to discover the cause. He saw a flock of swallows swoop down on the sheep, land on their back, and fly away with a beak full of wool, apparently to line their nests for the cold winter.
