Such statistics are cured by considering large num- mrs of careers, extending over long Hriods of time. Included in the jdefinition of "success" is financial Hccess. Dean Holmes of the Pennsylvania State college, after months m study of statistics, arrived at money value to the graduate, ol four years in college as being 20,000 or $5,000 per year. In othe r words the average man with a allege education earns enough Dore than the man without to make his college education worth 20,P00. Too much value must not, of course, be put upon this money return for higher education, and I yet it cannot be, and ought not to be, despised. There are benefits from higher education that money cannot buy. The college man must not stop learning and growing—education is It continual process of developing. Continuous self-development is the key to real happiness. High school seniors, contestants, Ifhelr tcachers and school board Rembers have a standing invita¬tion to visit the campus on any 'day during the year, but are the special guests of the university on High School day, May 10, 1923.

Congratulations! "WE 13" With each of the 13 cylinders Working to keep the perfected "We lit" mechanism pushing forward, 4ur last meeting proved a great ccess. After preparations for Wr annual banquet were made, we Hrtened to three; entertaining and educational articles dealing with aviation. By such subjects every member of the club is learning a great deal about flying. It might be interesting to note a few positions held by some of our members: Next year's student body president and secretary, the president of the Junior class, and two members of our state debate team. We are surely proud of such members as these. P, S. Our party Friday night was a big success. Everyone en¬joyed the dancing, the moonlight and the "eats." —Dee Bramwell, Sergeant-at-arms. man ideas as to the proper hour for opening school. Back of this was the lack of an adequate school for youngsters of under 10 yeafrs and of foreign par-entage. Private tutors were nu¬merous, but expensive. The German embassy therefore founded its own school. It import¬ed teachers and lowered tuition charges. Only—and this is the big catch— the sessions start at 8 a.m. prompt¬ly. This means early rising for parents and as a consequence yawns begin to appear at parties around 11 p. m. "It is certainly wonderful for the children," said one young matron, "but it is 'schrechlichkeit' (fright- fulness) for the parents." MAY 8, 1929.

MAY 8, 1929. "No matter what a mna's work, he can do it better if he is well informed. And the point here is that education, while it has a ' larger bearing than a mere prep¬aration for one's trade or profes¬sion, is the very best equipment for any sort of efficiency."—Dr. Frank Crane. POETESS. Miss Emily Lynch, graduate of O. H. S. in 1925, has a poem, "Have You Ever?" published in the May issue of the Utah Edu¬cational Review. VIOLA SECOND.

Following is a letter from the P. M. S. and T. at Walla Walla, dressed to the Professor of Mili- Wash., Major J. M. Holmes, ad- tary Science and Tactics, Ogden Senior High School: "For several years now we have been hearing about the marvelous band of the Ogden Senior High school. Moreover, when the pres¬ent R. O. T. C. officer, Ninth corps area, Lt. Col. Edmund C. Waddill, was here recently he spoke about it in a most complimentary fashion and of its wonderful achievements in the past. "Therefore, with a view of im¬proving the standard of our band, will you please give us the fol¬lowing information relative to your band: Strength and organization. System and extent of musical in¬struction. . System and extent of military instruction. Qualifications and selection of instructors. Credits given cadets for musical and mili¬tary instruction. Administration and discipline—a difficult problem with us. When and hoAV often uni¬forms are worn. Maintenance by institution or otherwise. Any other information which might be help¬ful," DOUBLES DRAWINGS FOR TENNIS. The boys' doubles tournament was scheduled to begin yesterday afternoon. Twenty doubles teams had entered and Mr. Ed.

POINTER POPULAR. One of the most popular maga¬zines in the school library is the "Pointer" from the U. S. Military academy at West Point. This magazine comes to the school through the courtesy of Cadet George Coolidge, son of Vice Presi¬dent Irwin, and it if always in de¬mand by the students. The. May issue of the "Pointer" carries an account of the first annual acad¬emy horse show, in which George. won a third place ribbon in the team jumping event. CONGRESS WINS AGAIN. Monday evening witnessed the j concluding debate between Forum I and Congress this year—a debate that resulted rather disastrously for the boys. Congress has been doing this little stunt of beating Forum quite consistently in the last year or two. Those girls are certainly there as debaters. The victors composed of Ruth Kraines and Rebecca Ririe upheld the negative while the Forum team which made up the affirmative consisted of Herbert Stewart and Beecher McConnell and although the debate was a victory for Con¬gress these Junior boys showed that next year Forum will have a crack team that will be hard to beat. Thursday Forum will hold its annual banquet. This is a classic event and is annually looked for by Forum and Alumnae members. GIRLS' ASSOCIATION. Congratulations are now in order for Ada Sailor, president Guinevere Hess, vice president, and Shirley Halverson, secretary of the Girls' association. We know these girls will fill their positions as faith¬fully as Lorna Crockett, Lyzena Payne, and Rebecca Ririe did and boost the school activities to the greatest extent. They are the girls' choice and we are surely proud of them. Now boys, just watch the Girls' association make the dust fly next year. SIXTY TO "U." Sixty seniors have already signi¬fied their desire of obtaining the one-dollar round trip rate to Salt Lake on the Bamberger, Friday. In order for a senior day, he or she must be up to date in all work. Three Ogden track men earned a trip to the state track meet by qualifying at Logan in "A" day. Capt. Stewart and "Stretch" Finch will perform in the pole vault while Hoggan will step the mile with the state's fastest. APRIL 10, 1929. The world i3 too busy to bother about the fellow who is too lazy to make the most of the stuff that's in him.—Horace Mann. UPSETS STRATFORD Jim Chadwick, junior, has fur¬nished the first big upset in the boys' singles tournament. Chad¬wick won his way to the second round by handing Till Johnson a 6-0, 6-0 trimming and advanced to the third round when he defeated Grant Stratford, strong favorite, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, after Stratford had disposed handily of Huber Earle. Here are some of the other first round results: John Carver stam¬peded Chuck Michaels, 6-1, 4-6, 6-4; John Noblitt eliminated Tom Campbell, 6-3, 6-2; Beecher Mc¬Connell won over Dee Bramwell in a three-set struggle; Bob Perry de¬faulted to Grey Reynolds and Melly ames lost to Jack Jensen, champ at Central last night. Julius Hansink and Coleman Fitzgerald promise a heated net scene when they tangie in another first round game. Jule is just beginning to feel himself again after having his tonsils re¬moved. All the tennis is being played between snowfalls. Sort of a winter sport. WINNERS ANNOUNCED The Home Economics club walk¬ed away with the ten dollar prize awarded the club accomplishing the most toward a successful Classicalia. The club totaled 147 points; ten points for tickets, 110 points for pageant, 20 points for publicity and seven points for attendance at committee meetings. The next highest club was I-Wannan-O with 137 points. Eliot Sampson sold 26 tickets and pulled down five dollars for selling the most tickets over twenty-five. CONGRESS Congess had one of the snappiest meetings we have had so far There was a lively discussion about our coming assembly, and a still more lively discussion about the debate in the near future. Plans are rapidly formulating for our as¬sembly, and it won't be long now until the student body has a treat. Then we had a debate on the state question. It was a no-decision af¬fair as one of the debaters was ab¬sent. The debate was extremely interesting, and we hope we can i have another one soon.—Ruth L Kraines. . ANNOUNCEMENTS All seniors desiring announce¬ments for graduation may now place their order. The announce¬ments are of the type chosen at a previous senior meeting and the price is ten cents apiece or twelve cents if two envelopes are wanted A committee composed of Mildred Purdy, ohn McCrumm and Oswell Jackson greatly desire that orders be made as soon as possible, due to the fact that at least 250 an¬nouncements must be ordered be¬fore any can be made up. Orders should be given to members of the committee. Please order your an¬nouncements early, seniors, and avoid the rush and delay in delivery! A. D. M. Good-by! A lovely luncheon was served.

Anyway, here's your chance to win five dol¬lars and help to make the Junior Prom a success. But even if you aren't the lucky one you will a! least have a clear conscience, for you'll be able to say: "I have rlon my bit toward the Junior Prom and have been lo.vai to my class." Now to get back to the subject of "We 13." In the midst of the Prom activities we have not neglected our business consisting of prepar¬ing for our assembly and of talks on aviation. We had a talk on sea planes and one on the future of aviation in America, both given by members at our last meeting. GET YOUR DATE Only nine days until the last jun¬ior dance of the year. Only nine days to get your dates in. Hurry up. You'll have to do some fast work if you are to get that girl. Tickets are out. Get your tickets early and avoid tne rush. MAY 12, 1929.
