9. SCHOOL ASKED FOR STUDENTS Parents Urged to Vote For Bonds As Time Is Now Ripe OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen, Associate Editor. The bond issue will be voted upon this Tuesday by the people of Ogden to decide whether the future High school students of this city will enjoy the modern conveniences and equipment of an up-to-date building. We, the members of the dear old Ogden High school, urge you par¬ents to cast your votes in favor of a tremendous enterprise; we need a new High school. When do we want it? Now! ISSUE FOR 20 YEARS For the past twenty years this issue has been talked about, but no action has been taken until lately. But now the time is ripe, for the government will donate $250,000 for a new building. A bond issue of $580,000 will allow $830,000 for a new high school; the $580,000 may be obtained at 2% per cent interest on ten-year serial bonds. Parents, give your young boys and girls an opportunity which we, the present students, have never had— the chance of a lifetime! Give them a new high school. PROMISE OF THE STARS I stood on the edge of a lily pond one night. It was as dark a night as I have ever seen. Overhead the gleam of the stars reminded me of an old proverb, I know not who uttered it: "The darkest night the world has ever known did not put out the stars." There is a tremendous thought packed into that single sentence; in it is the essence of all the prog¬ress which mankind has made. It speaks the faith and the almost futile hope of those of us who stumble and fall—and get up again to go on leading the world toward greater tomorrows. We cannot help despair at times, but we can re¬member the promise of the stars! —P. E. G. 10. O. H. S. AWAITS PUBLIC REPLY TO QUESTION To Have or Not to Have Stands Foremost In Minds OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NEWS Emily Merrill, Editor; Blaine Larsen, Associate Editor. To have or not to have, that is the question. Whether the taxpay¬ers say today that we shall have a new high school, or they say we shall not, that is the thing that worries us. You say it worries you. It worries everybody. But why worry? Mark Twain said, "I am an old man. I have had many, many trou¬bles, but most of them never hap-pened." Of course the bonds are voted. We are all ready to move into that new high school. CONGRESS TRIUMPHS Congress triumphed over Forum in the annual contest for the Hendricks' debate medals. This debate is sponsored by former Judge J. A. Hendricks. The question for the debate was: "Resolved that the government should exercise direct control of the munition industries." The affirma¬tive was upheld by Dan Alsup and Bob Buswell and the negative by Lola Woodbury and Vema Forbes. Lew J. Wallace, the judge, when rendering his decision, gave a very clear analysis of the question. All four participants did well, but the negative, according to the judge, had a little the better in argument and material. The girls will be given the medals in our award assembly. A plaque also is awarded the win¬ning club. Congress is very pleased to an¬nounce three new pledges: Theon Erquiaga, Leatha Hess and Marion Dame. With these new girls to help carry on, Congress feels assured of very great progress next school year. —Marie Manning, President. MODEL FOR SENIORS In just a few days we, the sen¬iors of Ogden High school, will be graduating from school life into a wide world of realism. What we do, how we act and how we obey the laws of democracy will largely mir¬ror the citizenship of the age. Let us prove ourselves in the great years before us to be worthy of the name of an American cit¬izen; let us seek those pleasures which will enrich our character and soul. All of us have an ideal which we try to adhere to; may we have the stamina to improve and perfect ourselves along life's pathway. Perhaps no other selection writ¬ten more clearly exemplifies a mod¬el for us than the following adapted passage. "Let us, the people, equip ourselves with a taste for good reading, good music, good paining and have at least one developed talent of our own, so that we can meet ad¬versity and enforced leisure more safely to ourselves and to society." It is the empty mind that demands thrills, joy rides, and reckless dash¬es from one dance hall to another seeking diversion.—Editor. VOTE OF APPRECIATION The Notes for this school year have been typed daily by Mrs. Franke and her typing students. Such an act of consideration for those who have the responsibility of publishing these school articles every evening in The Standard-Ex¬amined has been greatly appreciat¬ed by the editors. To all those who have in some way helped to make the publication of the school Notes possible, we sin¬cerely and gratefully render our deepest thanks. 11.
