parade tonight For three years and more for- , mer Mayor Francis, in his en­thusiasm for R. O. T. C. work has urged that the unit stage a. parade down town early in the evening, that the people of Ogden might see the most conspicu­ous example of the splendid phy­sical training the Ogden schools are giving the boys. We sin­cerely hope "all Ogden" will be on hand tonight between 5:30 and 6:30 o'clock to witness this won­derful exhibitio-n. While the boys are out primarily to advertise the game, they will advertise also in a very effective way the purpose and value of R. O. T. C. work. Here will be seen 500 upstanding, vigorous, healthy young men, with elastic step and perfect car­riage, saying as it were in every step, "We are young; we are strong; we are hopeful; we are ambitious; we are physically fit, mentally alert; we are preparing ourselves for life's great work." Well might the bystander say, "Young men, there is no duty more incumbent on you than that you retain this youthful vigor, this strength that is now yours: yon can do it, if, after you discontinue school, you will keep up the training that has put you in this prime condition." Much is said now-a-days about education carrying over in life. I Nowhere is there a more con- ! spicuous failure of "carrying on" than that of failing to continue in life those healthful activities indulged in youth, gymnastics, games, athletics, training, that j give vigor and strength and ! beauty to young people in their 'teens. A single illustration, tak­en from a newspaper of many years age, may help to enforce this point: one of life's sad tragedies RENO, Nev., July 4.-Today we saw a tragedy. A tremendous, crushing anti-climax had hap­pened and we are dazed. Some 15,000 of us went out and broiled ourselves in the sun to see a great prize fight, and while it was great from the standpoint of a spectacle and from the courage displayed, it was in reafity no fight at all. It was a pitiful, pitiful tragedy. Time had outwitted the keenest of us, and instead of the Jeffries we had known and had come to think was still among us, we saw the shell of a man, fair to the eye and awe-inspiring in his shape, to be sure, but empty of life's vigor. The spark had died. The years had done their work. No fierceness of will, no gallant determination could fan it to a flame again, and so he lost. Time had cunningly hit her work, and no man was gifted with the sight to see cold ashes that lay where once a flame had flickered. It was a cruel lesson, marking, as it did, the inevitable march of years and age and the waste of a godlike heritage. While in actual point of days there was little difference in the two; the negro had maintained his youth through a life of exer­cise and physical care, while the white man had grown heavy with idleness. OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Some time ago the East Seconds visited Ogden and beat us, 12 to 0. We returned the call Wednesday! and defeated them, 12 to 0. Turn J ; about is fair play. When these lines are read the j result of the Ogden-West High j ! game will be known. OtlflLU. Ogden 20 West 40 Miss Walweek of typewriting department, Miss Hussey o home economics and Mr. Van Orden of mathematics department, all of North Cache High school, visited the various departments of the high school Wednesday. Miss Naomi Nelson and Miss Miriam Jackson of home economics ; department of Pleasant Grove were also interested visitors at ' high school Wednesday. CHOOSES COMEDY. Miss Reva Beck of the oral ex­pression department has decided to put on "Clarence," a ripping comedy, by Booth Tarkington, as J ! the school play this year. It will be presented at the Orpheum theatre ! on Wednesday evening, December 10. COMPLIMENT FOR SCHOOL AND TEACHERS. A high school student who has attended at least two other high schools of the state, says in a his­tory report: "To me Ogden High school is much better than any high school I have ever attended. "The teachers are more inter­ested in the school here than in some other places. In other places j they work just to try to cram knowledge into the students; here each teacher acts as if he were one of the students, remembering that he, also, was once young. "The students as a whole have a great deal of pep in trying to give the school a name- "We have a wonderful coach who is interested in the school and trains the boys to play better and cleaner games." DUMB BELLS. The other day a teacher gave definite instructions to a group of forty. All but one understood, and cmplied. This one failed to under­stand. Wheii asked why he alone failed to understand when thirty- nine others did: "Oh, because they are dumb bells," he replied, nonchalantly. COMMENDABLE HONESTY. On Tuesday a high school girl lost an envelope containing 25. This was picked up on Thursday by a student, Thelma Grange, and returned to theowner. If all were as honest as this how much bet­ter world it would be. It is better to have a Ford ca! mind, body and soul and crank up by hand than to have a Rolls-Royce sedan with no battery of ideals, no tank of ideas, and no spirit to ig­nite a mixture which is not even there. COUNCIL REPORT. Meeting was called to order and the minutes of the two privioua j meetings were read and approved. ' The committee reports were as follows: Helen Vogel reported that the clubs of the school have been reg­istered. Rose Sampson reported that the committee on student body mem­bership was checking up on all of­ficers of the R. O. T. C. and class officers to see that they had pur­chased student body tickets. President Tallmadge Boyd re­ported that it would be impossible to entertain West High school, as had been previously suggested, be­cause there are no funds available at the present time. He also re­ported that speeches are being made before the clubs of the city to advertise the games. Copies ot high school yells will be distribut­ed to the junior high schools, m order that the students may learn them more quickly. The question came up: Should classes be permitted to postpone matinee dances which have been scheduled, or shall such postpone­ment result in the cancelling of the dance altogether? The council de- cided to leave this matter up to ! the social committee. I a committee consisting of Ross I Sampson, Jake Reynolds, Forbes Campbell and Franklin Richards ! atr-appointed to supervise th ' yells to be given by the R. O. T. C. down town Wednesday night I These yells will take the place o 1 the regular snake dance. DIFFERENT KINDS OF STUDENTS. Some students are self starters, some must always be eranked up. Some start on high. Some on in­termediate and some have to be pushed even on low speed. GAMMA KAPPA PARTY. Gamma Kappa participated in the first party of the present year Tuesday evening at the beautiful Wright camp in Ogden canyon. Va­rious club members supplied their "Rolls Royces" for the benefit of the club so everyone was trans­ported afely there and back. When Jake and Stanley were dis­couraged of filling the river with rocks, Mrs. Camp escorted the club up the side of the mountain io view the mysteries of a crow's nest. After dark a delicious out-of- door supper was served and every­one had plenty of eats, in the soft fire light of a glorious bonfire. Jame lire presided over the dish- pan with various assistants, there­by filling the first degree of ini­tiation. Not yet content, the older mem­bers conspired together to fright­en the new members of the fair . sex by blindfolcing their eyes and leading them into the night to walk up planks and off diving boards to land with their hands i i water. More than one heart miss­ed a beat and frequent screams were heard above laughter as each victim blindfolded and trembling­ly performed. ; Of course everything ended in a I general laugh and the club extends its hearty thanks to Miss Martha ! Wright as hostess and anxiously ) looks forward to another similar party.-Marjorie Allen. LOVE. And one day Love came No one to blame : And oh, it was fair, S Just to know Love was there! The skies, bluer blue, ; The world, truer true I Life more sublime Now Love was mine. ; Love went as it came ; No one to blame Left me to care For a love not there, The skies blackened dark The world without heart Life just to die When_ Love Some love must remain No one to blame I still must think fair The Love which was there. The skies, blue and gray The world, night and day, Life made more glad By the love I once had. -Dorothy Cragun. Oct 27 - 24 Ogden High School Notes A wonderful fall day, sunshiny and warm, a tremendous crowd of enthusiastic rooters, two well- matched football teams, each do- j ing the very best possible, a game f marked by fair play, good sports­manship-these and a few other fine things helped to make the O. H. S.-West contest laot Thursday afternoon the greatest contest of its kind ever witnessed in Ogden. If anyone did not get his mon­ey's worth, kindly call up Dave Wangsgard, chairman of the ath­letic committee, or Ross Samp­son, athletic manager, or Dixon Kapple, coach, and get his money back. Principal Keeler of the West Side high school extends his thanks and appreciation to all connected with the school for the courteous treatment and consid­eration extended to his school and team. Teachers returned to school to­day from their convention with new inspiration and renewed de­termination to make their class­room work successful. Students hope that they learned how to make shorter assignments and to give better grades. NEW BY-LAWS. Students will be interested in a number of the new by-laws of the U. A. A., notably-(1) The rule that requires a student to have finished one semester of work in j a school before he shall be per- . mitted to participate in athletics, i The East and West schools have J had this rule for some time and , the failure of the L. D. S- high j school to adopt the rule, led the I city schools to refuse to play league games with that school. Another rule prohibits any I student participating in any athletic contest if he has been in : attendance in high school more I than eight semesters. ( A third by-law reads, "If any student shall have reached j his twenty-first birthday on or j before November 15 he shall be , ineligible for participation in football. If he is 21 on or before j March 1, he is eligible for foot­ball and basketball only. Students must enter school within the first two weeks in or­der to be eligible without penal­ty. A student entering the third week must be in attendance one weekr before participating. Another ruling gives the arbitrator full power to settle dis­putes. This power has hereto­fore been delegated to the board of control. All the rules were 'established in order to secure justice to all participants and to raise the morale and standards of athletic activities. The O. H. S. girls' chorus sang before the convention on Friday evening and were much com­plimented for their splendid work. . The L. D. S.-Ogden game is scheduled for Saturday in Salt Lake City, but it is doubtful whether a field upon which to play can be procured for that date. There is some talk of call- ! ing the game for Friday afternoon. The question will be set- I tied today. GIVEN GOOD VOTE. The popularity of Supt. W. Karl Hopkins throughout tne state is : shown by the fact that although Salt Lake, Granite and Jordan ; districts combined to elect a Salt Lake man president of the Utah Teachers' association, he had 900 votes cast for him. This alone I was a larger vote than was re- j corded both candidates, Supt. C. N. Jensen and 'Prof. Henry Peterson, for the same office one year ago. ALL MAY BECOME POETS. Paul Sandburg of Chicago is be­ing hailed in some quarters as a great poet. If Paul is a poet then there is no earthly reason why everyone may not become a poet. Witness these two c1 assies from a recent volume of his poems: SOUP. I saw a famous man eating soup, ; I say he was lifting a fat broth Into his mouth with a spocn. His name was in the newspapers J that day J Spelled out in tall black headlines j And thousands of people were talking about him, ; When I saw him. I He sat bending his head over a plate Putting soup in his mouth with a spoon. SHIRT. My shirt is a token and symbol, More than a cover for sun and rain, My shirt is a signal And a teller of souls. I can take off my shirt and tear it. And so make a ripping razzly noise, And the people will say, "Look at him tear his shirt," I cankeep my shirt on. I can stick around ar.d sing like a little bird, And look 'em in the eye and j never be feazed.
