NEAR EAST RELIEF. Students were asked today to make tomorrow (Friday) Near East Relief day and to bring old clothes to help clothe the thousands in that unfortunate land.

The initial enrollment of. the club was 42, which is considered a very splendid beginning. The following officers were elected: Phyllis Shaw, president: Dorothy Coop vice president; Margaret Wilson, secretary. It was voted that the president should appoint three committees; to choose a name; to arrange for the use of the Weber gym, and to draw up a constitution. The committes are: For the name, Frances Shelby, Dorthy Newman, Eleanor Newey. Constitution, Helen Jenkins, Margaret Bernards, LeBurn Wright. Use of gym, Phyllis Shaw, Dorothy Coop, Rachel Foulger. Another meeting will be held Monday at 3 o'clock in room No. 202, to hear from the committees. Come on girls! Let's make the Girls' Swimming club the biggest Mjfeganization in O.H.S. CARE OF THE YOUNG. More and more the attention of the public is being centered on the care, culture and training of the young. The drive for clothing for thousands of children of 'the Near East, which is on today, reminds us of another important move which was initiated in Ogden yesterday. The beginnings of a drive by the American Legion to raise five millions of dollars to help take care of disabled soldiers and the orphans of martyred soldiers. An effort is to be made to secure a real worth-while comfortable home for every orphaned child; than which perhaps no more laudable movement could be launched. Judge Howell said yesterday, and very emphatically, too, that during his many years on the bench he made it a practice to ascertain something of the early life of criminals brought before him, and that he found that nine out of every 10 had come from poor homes or no homes. From places where the real word "home" had no significance. We are just coming to realize that America's problem is the problem of taking care of the underprivileged child. The hope of our nation, as of every nation, is in the young and unless we care for I these and see to it that they are brought up in the right kind of homes as well as schools, our j hopes are vain. Crime may be les- j sened by proper environment and training of youth and in no other j way. Prevention too is cheaper land more effective than any cures ! we may endeavor to effect after children have been brought up in misery and amidst unwholesome influences. Yes, yes. whatever else we may do, let us not neelect this first great duty to give i proper care for the young-to give i every child a real chance-a real opportunity in the world. THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL. Wherever one goes the one topic of conversation early presented is the new high school site and the new high school building. The mass of opinion seems to be greatly in favor of the Monroe site, on account of the adequacy and accessibility of the same. Most people are getting rid of the idea that any public building should be set off on a hill practically inaccessible to every one. I The editorial in Wednesday's Standard-Examiner was right to , the point. The value of the park j to everybody will be greatly augmented by the utilizing of the same by the board of education ! as a building site and campus. So far as we can learn, too, people are very anxious that the building shall be constructed at earliest possible date. They feel that some plan should be formulated whereby the building can be constructed. Holding back one-third of the senior high pupils in the junior is unsatisfactory from every point of view, and as pointed out by the committee visiting the Lewis school yesterday, should be remedied at an early date. MANDATORY FEE. The student body council is petitioning the board of education ot establish a mandatory student body fee of 3 and of 5 for all students attending the senior high school, to take care of athletics, publications and social .affairs. - The fee has been optional for years and has proven ro satisfactory that all feel thai, kt should 'now be _made mftgdator" 4-24-25 Ogden High School notes Tomorrow, 25 of our athletes, under Coach . Kapple go to participate in the invitational meet of the B. Y. U. , We expect to make a very creditable showing. ARTISTIC DECORATION. In addition to other decorative features of the junior prom to be held tonight heretofore mentioned, the committee has arranged tor a very novel centerpiece-a huge oblong box that will be artistically decorated and will contain bright red lights. On the sides will appear the words, "Junior Prom," and on the ends "Seniors." FINE CONTRIBUTION. Through the kindness of Billy Gunnell, the geology department received Thursday a very fine collection of minerals. These are very much appreciated and will be classified and labeled by the students who have shown much interest in this work. The department during the year has been under obligation to Mr. George Bergstrom for the loan of several boxes of minerals for study. INVITATION TO MILLS. Invitations to attend commencement exercises at Mills college, California, were received at high school Thursday. Miss Helen Mills, '25, is graduating from that institution this year. IN LIFE SAVING. Through the courtesy of Chief Graves of the fire department, the biology classes were given on Thursday a demonstration of the most approved first-aid methqds that are now being used by the local fire department. This included the Ambrine treatment for burns, use of the lung motor and the Sylveste and Schaeffer methods of artificial resuscitation from shock, asphyxiation, or drowning. PRIZE WINNERS. In the national essay contest conducted by the National Chemical society, Miss Thelma Jones and Lloyd Bowen won two first state prizes. These prizes are 20 each with the apportunity of having essays compete with essays submitted from high school students of other states. It gives each also a 25 scholarship in the University of Utah. Miss Jones' subject was "The Relation of Chemistry to the Enrichment of Life," and Mr. Bow- ens' "The Relation of Chemistry to National Defense." This might bd a good time also to announce that Mr. Bowen is a young married man with two children, works full night shifts at the Union freight station and carries five full courses at high school with excellent grades. Can ycu beat it? Speak up! RECEIVES AWARDS. TOf. JStfrel FMfik'e, instructor in typewriting, today received from the Underwood Typewriting company a bronze medal, also a silver medal for proficiency as instructor, and for having "obtained exceptional results in her typewriting classes." THE HAM AND CLUB. At last the secret is out. For three months and more now we have all been wondering why "Ham And." E. S. Smith told us Thursday night that "Ham And" has nothing to do with the article handed over the counter at Ross and Jack's as we had suspected. Ham in an individual-probably Wayne ILverson or Edgar Calder -or some other more or less expert young radio fan who is and has been for some time very much interested in broadcasting, receiving sets, codes, etc. "And" is the. amateur, the beginner-any young fellow who is interested in getting information upon these topics and in getting experience with the marvelous instruments of our day which brings the music of New York and the jazz of San Francisco to our fireside every night. FINE MEETING. Of such then is that fine little organization in our school, the "Ham And" made up. This energetic little club with its membership pf 15 bos, gave us Thursday night the history of their accomplishment and triumphs during the past three months, then a delightful hour of song, music and story, and had hoped to conclude the evening with a feast of music from Salt Lake, Los Angeles, Cincinnati, etc., but unsettled weather conditions made the later hope futile. The audience heard Salt Lake quite satisfactorily but not the more re- |
