After more than a year's rest the clocks in all the class rooms began ticking again on Thursday, due to their having received a lit­tle doctoring at the hands of Prof. Ernest Wangsgard and his phys­ics class. This is an event of some importance as it will provide stu­dents with ready information as to just how long it will be berore they may expect to get out of class. PUPIL INITIATIVE. A fine pxample of pupil initia­tive was manifested this week, when, after the teacher ran away and got married and forgot to come back, a pupil popped up into her chair and conducted the class work the whole week just as j if nothing had happened. VISIT STOCK SHOW. Natural science classes under direction of Miss Garrison and Willis Smith have taken occasion to visit the stock show as a part of their regular work. Scores of other students have flocked to the yards after school hours to witness the show. They all de­clare the exhibition very much worth while. ELECTRICAL DRAWING.

CLIFF DWELLERS. Tonight at Central Junior at 7:30 o'clock Prof. Andrew Kerr will give an address on "The Cliff Dwellers of Southern Utah." The address is given under the aus­pices of the Engineering society and is free to the "public. The game with the A. C. fresh­men will be played this afternoon instead of to-night so as not to interfere with another important' game scheduled in Logan. O. H. S. students are taking ad­vantage this afternoon of Weber Gym's opening and are going through the building. The gym means everything to the young people of Ogden, WOODEN SCHOOL SYSTEM. A year or two ago we heard Dr. Owen R. Lovejoy give some very caustic criticisms upon several of the institutions of society. He re­membered the public school in the following words: "One of the fundamental prin­ciples of success in business is the principle of trying to beat calam­ity to the goal and never Jet it arrive. One of the difficulties of us Americans is that we have al- " ways been trying to get at calam­ity from the wrong end. We have . waited until it happened and then ; we tried to correct it. We have handled our education- I al problem in that way. We have j built up a school system that in many parts of the country is so ' wooden, so cut and dried, that the j reason children leak out of the system, at the first possible mo­ment, is because among the thing that a child hates is the hatred of being bored to extinction. He wants to be where there is some­thing doing, where there is life, where there is activity, where there is something appeals to his ideal­ism." CHESTNUTS. "Well," sighed the poor stu­dent as he gazed down at his old shoes, "I'll sion be on my feet ; again." The dying man shook his head tearfully and exclaimed, "I won't take it. No, Ikey, it tastes aw­ful." " "But, mine dear frien', groaned Ikey, "You- can't die and leave all these expensive medicines wasted." He (teaching her to drive) - "In case of emergency, the first thing to do is to put on the brake." She-"Why, I thought it came with the car." "Some vegetables are large." "How so?" ; I've seen three policemen asleep on a single beet." "Is it true that in the air ser­vice you are retired as a colonel after 15 years?" "No, after two years you are retired as an angel.' "I stood on the bridge at mid­night and witnessed a most bru- tal attack." She shuddered. "Yes, go on, tell me, what was it," he urged. t "The clock was striking the hour." THE ENGINEER. Usually we wait until people die before we give them any bouquets. We are going to depart from this custom today and poke a posey un- der Jack Armstrong's nose and say, "Smell of that." j Jack is chief engineer at the , high school. During his ten years here, school has never been dis- ' missed a day on account of "cold building. In this connection we ' I may add that when he came the - heating plant was in poor condi- j tion and radiation unsatisfactorily : distributee!. Year by year he has improved the system so that it is now possible to have every room comfortable at all times. This means that sometimes Jack gets ! but little sleep as the fire must ' be kept going all the time dur- ' ing such weather as we had re- I cently. . Not only this, but Mr. Armstrong has charge of all the furnaces in the city schools and whenever a , pipe bursts, a radiator freezes, a ; sewer clogs or a furnace balks- day or night-anywhere, Jack is summoned to make the repairs. Jack knows of no such thing as an eight-hour day. He says ' there's 24 hours in every day he has known since he came to the high school. This, then, is to say that Jack Armstrong is one of the most useful men in the Ogden; school system and his services are very much appreciated by all prin­cipals, teachers, janitors, students, superintendent, board of education i and all concerned. WOMEN'S MUSICALE. ;l The Woman's Faculty club of the High school will be entertained at ; a musicale at the Virginia hotel Saturday afternoon. The hostesses are Miss Frances Dillon, Miss Mar­ion Simmie, Mrs. Elmer Wall, Mrs. Jule McMurrin, Mrs. J. W. Connell, and Mrs. Caroline Kamp. The Woman's Faculty club is an organ­ization made up of the women of the high school and the wives of , the faculty men. It's object is to promote better acquaintance among the members. Tomorrow (Tuesday) night stu- j dents and the public will have their first opportunity to see our j 1925 basketball team in action. At 7 o'clock we play a junior college team from Cedar City (B. A. C.) We were disappointed in not winning the A. C. game, but per­haps we expect too much when we count on winning all games. But one efeat is enough for this year. Come on, boys, let's go! The team got into real action on Saturday night at Malad and won the game by a nice margin. Our history from now on will be a record of "games won." TARDINESS. For the first time in years teach­ers are making reports on "tardi­ness to class." The changes in classes-seven times per day- gives us a big opportunity to pile up "tardies." One is rated tardy if he is not in his seat when the second bell rings-exactly 'three minutes after the ball which dis­misses him from the preceding class. There were 539 cases of tardiness reported, four teachers not reporting. The highest num­ber reported by any one teacher was 57, the lowest 4. Much tardiness has been occas­ioned by cars coming late from North Ogden district. As the com­pany is putting on a special car for high school students to be run direct to the school this morn­ing, we feel assured that tardiness ; from this cause will be elimin­ated. GIRLS' MEETING. On Wednesday morning at 8:30 o'clock Central Junior high school the girls will hold another meet­ing of the series outlined. Mrs. Joseph R. Morrell will address the girls on the subject of "Art and Art Appreciation." STRAY SHOTS. The lone single man on the fac­ulty--the woman hater-has be­gun to weaken. Last year's pres­ident of the Girls' association in­veigled him into escorting her to the party Friday evening and he seemed quite pleased in his new role as "gallant." Now he's on the toboggan, look out, girls! HEARD AT THE PARTY. "Gosh, George Washington's courage in crossing the Delaware ! isn't in it as compared with my courage in securing the date for this party."-M. H. THE STINGIEST TEACHER. J "One of our teachers must have a lot of good jokes. Very often, during study period, we see him smiling to himself atid once or twice, we've caught him laughing to himself. AVonder why he doesn't pass them around?" HIS ANNUAL. A youngster was overheard to . say at the party the other night, "Gee, this Is the first time I've been in the Berthana since the last Girls' party." " SCHOOLS FOR PARENTS. "If schools for the ucation of children were -closeu, aim those i for the instruction of parents were kept open, surely the world and the children would profit by the change."-Clarence Darrow. NEW TEACHER Mrs. Katherine Hooley of Den­ver has been secured to teach of­fice machine work in place of i Miss Beaulieu-married and gone, j Mrs. Hooley reported for . work ! this morning and expresses her- ! seif as pleased with the prospects of her work here. Of course, she j likes Ogden. AGED 16. Garff Wilson reached his six­teenth milestone o'n Friday. In honor of the event and in appre­ciation of his splendid talent and work the student body presented him with a beautiful celluloid rat­tle at Friday's assembly. The pre­sentation was made by Ward Arm­strong, and occasioned no little enjoyment and merriment. THE GIRLS' PARTY. "Nothing more beautiful in the world than this party," exclaimed one enthusiastic patron Friday ev­ening; and his opinion was voiced by all the spectators of that won- : drously beautiful function. Therei were about 500 students in at- j tendance. - i The grand march, characterized by the weaving of many beautiful designs or patterns, was one of the most artistic performances we.: have ever witnessed. The march, I directed by Miss Grace Stone, was ; led by the president, vice president and secretary of the Girls' j association, Miss Emma Beuhler, j Lucy Stone, Martha Wright and j Marjorie Allen, with their escorts, j John Beuhler, Harper Culley, Clyde Stone and Edwin Anderson. The j party is rated one of the great j social functions of the year. ! FRIDAY'S ASSEMBLY. At the assembly on Friday, Prin­cipal Harmon of the Provo High school, remarked, "Boys and girls, I have enjoyed very much my visit here this morning. I have been through your building and have met you in your classrooms and I want to pay you the compliment of being ladies and gentlemen. This is about as high a compliment as any can receive. I am impress­ed that you are real ladies, real ! gentlemen. I like the spirit and j atmosphere of your school. You ; have here a wonderful school and I want to congratulate you." Supt. Claude Lewis of Provo also complimented the students on the excellent showing made. He gave an excellent talk on character building. The following readings were given in a highly artistic manner at the assembly: The Soul of the Violin, Adelaide Smith, accompan­ied by Cecil McDonald on violin. Witches Leaves, by Roberta Car- don; Opportunity, by Myrl Stall­ing. In addition to the music mentioned in Friday's paper, a bar­itone solo was rendered in fine style by Rulon Budge. IN APPRECIATION. For three and one-half years ; Celena Beaulieu taught in the Ogden High school. Her work foi the most part wras in connection with the office machine depart- i ment, which was supplemented b.y giving instruction in business, English and French. During these years also Miss Beaulieu taught night school classes in extension work. This, then, is to say that scores of boys and girls as well as many mature men and women who ca.me under Miss Beaulieu's tuition will rise to say that she was an excel­lent teacher, an earnest, unsel­fish worker, a helpful, genuine friend and a woman of such ad­mirable qualities as to be an in- spiration to all who came under her instruction. The efficiency and standard of work in the Og­den High school have been raised by these years of service that Miss Beaulieu gave, and appreciation for the same is hereby expressed. May her future years be full of happiness and further marked by the sort of service "that was rendered here. OBJECTIVES IN EDUCATION. - A few years ago a committee of ) prominent educators was given the task of outlining in a. condensed form the chief objectives in sec- j ondary education. This commit- i tee did the work exceptionally well, i It is said there are seven obvious objectives. ! Today and during the succeed­ing six days we shall present these objectives one by one with brief comment on each one. We sug­gest that all readers of these notes consider in their own minds the objectives suggested, enlarging upon them as they may, and then at the close, if they will criticise or suggest improvement on the lis' given.
