EDITORIAL QUOTED Apropos the opening of schools an editorial in Colliers' of - September 6 i declared worthy of j careful consideratio a ci e. esy ! ent. It, reads as fololws: ! "With your children once rrior on the threshold of school, all the , way from primary to high school j grades, we again make our an- ! nual suggestion, plea, request, de- ! mand-call it what you will. And ; I that is: "Check yourself up with regard j to what yah are really doing-or j going to do-to co-operate in your j children's schooling, i "Do you know just what they ar§ going to study? "Do you know their teachers 'other than by name, if that? "How many of those teachers j ; have you ever met, and talked with about your children? "How do you know the teachers would consider this a bore or imposition if you've never tried? "How many teachers have you encouraged to talk with you, in ! i case they find your child diffi- ' ! cult "If you find fault with the school methods in your ccmmuni- ' i ty what have you ever done to ; improve them? What are you ; going to do? "In short, as regards the educa- j ! : ion of your children, are you a ! faultfinder, a drifter, or a co- , i operator?" j SATURDAY EVENING, S Sept 6 - 24 Instruction for L. D. S. Students At Ogden High Desired Dr. John A. Widtsoe and Super- intendent Adam S. Bennion of the i L. D. S. schools were visitors at the school Friday afternoon. They were much impressed by the throng of students seeking registration. They were interested in devising some plan whereby L. D. S. students might arrange for re- ! Ugious and moral instruction along ! with their secular studies. Thev expressed themselves also aa desirous of arranging some j plan whereby the Weber gymnasium might be utilised by all the young people of the city. I I The new registration plan wherein each teacher registers ! pupils in his own classes works admirably. An equitable distribu- - tion is made and no teacher is overworked. It is estimated that 80 per cent of the entire enroll- - ment for the year are now registered so that teachers and pwjwAe- will enter vigorously Lafco regular work without confusion or delay at the opening of school next week. Considerable interest has already been iriani.tested in stuant body activities and quite a number or student body tickets have been sold. A delay in the shipment of R. O. T. C. material has occasioned a little delay in the issuing of suits and equipment. Sergeant Mayer reports, however, that uniforms will be given out on Monday and that regular work will begin at once. j1 "The 50 things that teachers j' should know and do," as pub- ! lished in Friday's Standard-Examiner was given to the public that j patrons as well as teachers and t students might know something of 5 the "ways and means" of con- j ducting high school work. WORK COMMENDED. At the last principals' meeting last spring and at the first meet- ' Ing of the new year this week . Superintendent W. K. Hopkins , commended highly the work that . has been done by several Parent- , Teachers' organizations that have . been in operation during the past and urged 'that every school in the , city establish such an organiza- tion. The teachers of the school h;,'e expressed' th'f- ." as read.: to co-operate with an , patrcof the school in such an j organization. , . MANY IMPROVEMENTS ieacneia returning to much pleased tm lied aira" completed by tne bo,j,ra of education during the summer. Among these may be mentioned: The rebuilding, enlarging and strengthening of the bieachers in the assembly hall; the painting, repairing of the chemistry laboratory; the enlarging and rekalso- mining of the art room; the installation of large and beautiful electric light fixtures on the first and second floors and in the office; the creation of a splendid class recitation room out of a part of the cafeteria; the division of the book-keeping room into two nice' comfortable class rooms; cutting down the old-fashioned book-keeping desks into very convenient, comfortable, nice looking tables; the installation of new tables and cupboards in the domestic art rooms. All these improvements are very much appreciated and will contribute to more effectivo and satisfactory wori throughout the school. The popularity and efficiency of typewriting in the school has resulted in the securing of extra machines by the board of education and the employment of an additional teacher in this department. Messrs. Brussaird, Burchell, Kinsey of the janitorial force, and Engineer Armstrong are receiving congratulations for the clean, sanitary condition into which they have put the building during the past few weeks. HANGING PICTURES. Le Conte Stewart is very busy today in hanging the school's art pictures of the school in the new "white way," the main (second) hallway of the building. These add very much to the beauty and "home-like" feeling of the school. ENROLLMENT AT SCHOOLS INCREASES Approximately 8600 students were enrolled in the Ogden city schools Monday and Tuesday. According to an announcement mads today by Superintendent W. Karl Hopkins this is an increase of approximately 100 over the enrollment as announced Tuesday, which included morning registrations of that day only. Additional students are expected to enroll during the remainder of the week, Mr. Hopkins added. FIFTY O. H. S.
