FRENCH LEAVE Borah's "News Writing for High School Students" seems to have grown wings and to have flown from Mr. Robins' room. Will you, dear book, please fly back? Mr. Robins needs you.

It has been noised about that Dan Stewart is recovering from the ill effects of what he swallowed when laughing at one of Dave's jokes. It seems that Gladys and Rich¬ard have suffered a temporary break-up. We hope it is not per¬manent. It is said that Bob Allison has dropped Einstein because he can find no more contradictory theories like: "A straight line is not a straight line. LONGING And it will bring you back— The burst of spring— The low, sweet calling of the whip-poor-will; And you will see the star above the lake, And watch the firefly dance be¬low tle hill— The throbbing of your heartbeat hushed and still. O it will bring you back— ! The burst of spring! The garden folk a-dance with joy set free. The oriole a-singing in the tree, The little path a-gleaming in the sun To welcome one Content a while to stay Beside the branch the oriole is swinging; But I shall be too far away— Too far away— To hear his singing. —Contemporary American Poets, 1928 Edition. Edited by Horace C. Bak¬er. ASSEMBLY A most interesting assembly was held Friday afternoon. Keith Corry, our president, was unable to p.eside so our charming vice president, Louise Emmett, took charge. First on the program were two French horn solos given by Lowell Ridges, accompanied by Owen Ridges. Next, Mrs. Bernice Tyree sang, and her song was enthusias¬tically received. Judge Reeder was the speaker, and he gave us a very fine talk. The assembly was con¬cluded by a vocal solo from Ed Greenwell. OUR TEACHER We have unknowingly been har¬boring among our teachers a full- fledged recognized poet. A poem, "Longing," by Mrs. Blanche Mc¬Key of the English department has been put in the 1928 edition of Contemporary American Poets, as edited by Horace C. Baker. The book has been compiled In an effort to get away from the morbid "realism" that has been so preva¬lent in our modern poetry. This surely is a great honor for Mrs. McKey and we feel a little thrill at having such a poetic lady in our ochool. The poem is so exquisite that we thought it wise to reproduce it in these columns. THE ORATORIO Well, I suppose you all know that the music classes of Ogden High are presenting an oratorio next week. This is the first one ever put on by Ogden High, so we are encouraging every one to at¬tend and to enjoy this wonderful piece of art. For the benefit of those who do not know the difference between an opera and an oratorio, I will give their definitions. An opera is a music dream that has action, scenery, costume and an orchestra accompaniment. An oratorio is a long major mu¬sical composition, usually of a re¬ligious theme, the text is often taken from the Bible. It has no action, or costume, but it will have scenery and orchestra accompani¬ment. Do not let the action and cos¬tume disinterest you, for an ora¬torio carries much more than that. It carries a theme that will live in your hearts forever. —R. P. OUR HALL OF FAME We nominate to our Hall of Fame: Marjorie Anderson, because if it is true that the face reflects the mind she is continually making her mind up; because when asked if she had read "Freckles," she de¬clared that she didn't have freckles; because while running in circles during gym class she said, "One good turn deserves another"; because she is one of the fortunate red heads! And Jack Gwilliam, because he declares that getting seal-skins is often a hair-raising job; because he has often heard that clothes make the man—but he wonders what they make him do; because lie is one of our foremost milk drinkers; because he's so Scotch he won't even pay attention. And Dee Jackson, because the parable he likes best is the one where every one loafs and fishes; because he invented the phrase, "To be great is to be misunder¬stood—especially by wives"; be¬cause he declares that his two years in high school have been the six happiest years of his life; because he rides a horse off and on. —Audrey Clark, Reporter. PHI LAMBDA TAU Meeting was called to order by Vice President Cluff. The minutes were read and approved. Plans were discussed concerning our next shooting practice and our bonfire meeting. Everything is ready for the event, if only the weather man will give u# good weather. Mr. Hyde then gave a talk on the care and handling of a gun. Along with this talk, he told us of the habits and characteristics of j the different types of rabbits and how to hunt them. We are mak¬ing every possible preparation for future outings. —Melba White. I-WANNAN-O I-Wannan-O met Wednesday night at the home of Kent Bram¬well. As a matter of new business the club decided to donate $5 to some charity cause to help spread the fine spirit of the members. It was also decided that the Wannan- Os should furnish a holiday dinner for some deserving family. The members all feel that they should try to make others feel as well as they at this season. A motion to hold a big jubilee wras lost because the member thought that we should try to furnish enjoyment for some poor family rather than spend our funds on a big club party. We hope this spirit is contagious. It was moved and seconded that this organization should go on record as opposing the vandalism and ungentlemanly conduct that is prevalent in our halls and on our grounds. We desire to show the persons indulging in such conduct
