A "Tea-less Tea," which is to be — sponsored by the senior girls Sat¬urday, May 9, in the High school auditorium, promises to be one of the most delightful social affairs of the year. The proceeds of the tea will be used by the senior class to purchase a memorial for the school. The guests will be conducted through a beautifully decorated bower of spring into the gymna¬sium, where amid flowers and gar¬lands refreshments will be served, the nature of which the committee refuses to divulge. While the guests partake of tea-less tea, the senior girls will exhibit their terpsi- chorean artists.' B.esides this, the senior girls announce the fashion show, where distinctive gowns o a half century ago will be dis¬played, much to the delight and amusement fo all who attend. The senior girls extend a most cordial invitation to all parents and friends of the high school to be present, BUTTER CUPS It seemed such a shame to pluck them Out) of their native haunt, Wherfe a passing breeze, or a bird, or a bee May come and go as they ant. And they hung their heads so modest like, And a scampering breeze ran by That snatched and pulled as it said to them, "I'll save you. At least, I'll try." So It held their dainty golden heads Out of my hands for awhile; Then it darted away to ripple the brooks. Butter Cup "gav In" vrith a smile. But when this morning was stormy, All guilt had left my soul; And I wondered if Lady Butter Cup Was not glad that I stole. But no breeze was there to nod their heads, So my heart said "yes" for them, And I gathered them up and bunched them, My sunbeams, stem by stem. I guess they're a touch of the sunlight Escaped before clouds closed o'er, To smile and shine and nod and play Till the sun laughs out once more. —DOROTHY CRAGUN.

Mon 5-10-25 Ogden High School Notes We should have mentioned on Friday that Weber college students, Miss Myra Wright and Miss Ruth Prout, each favored us with a de¬lightful solo on Friday at assembly. Miss Prout was accompanied by. the college chorus. We appreciat- j ed this musical treat as we did i also the very excellent address of President Tracy. MUSIC ON WEDNESDAY. The University of Utah will fur¬nish us a very fine program on Wednesday at 1:30 o'clock. Pro¬fessor B. Roland Lewis, head of the English department, will address us and the music department of the university will furnish a very delightful musical program. We remember with much pleasure the rare treat that Professor Giles and his students gave us three years ago and so we shall expect some¬thing unusually good on Wednes¬day. Word comes from the university that the department ha been preparing for two months to visit the Ogden High school. We wish to share this pleasure and conse-quently invite our parents and friends to drop in and spend a happy hour with us on Wednesday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. CADET INSPECTION. A treat is in store for all who can get an hour off on Wednesday morning to witness the drill of the R. O. T. C. and the inspection of the battalion, by Colonel Jordan. This big event will take place on tabernacle square, Twenty-second street and Washington avenue, and we urge all of Ogden to be at that park Wednesday morning at 8:45 o'clock prompt. The six different companies will go through the manual of arms and will also com¬pete with each other for the Kanzler cup. Mrs. Reinhart Kanzler will be there to present the cup to. the best company. Superintend¬ent W. K. Hopkins has kindly con¬sented to allow all pupils of the high school to be present at this demonstration. OFFIERS' BANQUET. The annual banquet of the com¬missioned officers of the R. O. T. C. and their ladies will be given at the Weber club on Tuesday eve¬ning. Major Jordan, the board of education members, and superin¬tendent Hopkins and their ladies will be honored guests of the oc-: casion. TEALESS TEA. All Ogden women who missed the ( tealess tea given by the'senior girls Saturday afternoon should go in mourning for 30 days for they i missed ore of the most delightful c functions of the year. The hall 1 was beautifully decorated for the occasion—it hardly looked like the high school assembly—a very de-lightful program was rendered— and while the affair was tea-less, it r was not coffeeless, for most de-licious coffee, ice cream and cake were served. The girls are to be congratulated on the very pleasant entertainment furnished. FINE TRACK MEET. Some people do not care particu- j iarly for "track meets." They say they are too slow—usually too hot and dusty, too tiresome. None of i these things could have affected j anyone on Friday last. The weath¬er was delightfully cool, the events were pulled off with dispatch, they were all exciting and instead of dust and dirt there was cool, re-, freshing lawn grass. Such a meet would make anyone enthusiastic, and then if he happened to be par¬ticularly interested in Ogden;—it was a particular delight to see how she gathered in the points, 58 for Ogden -as against 59 for other schools; Box Elder 32, Davis 2 6 and Bear River 1. Ogden fans are quite enthused with our prospects for the state meet next Frid'ay. We shall give West a run for her points. HOW TIME CHANGES. In the year book of .May, 1910, Principal J. O. Cross wrote: "Thus endeth another year, the most momentous in the history of the Orange and Black. A modern high school building, the finest 'n the state, has taken the place of the old superannuated structure. Tra¬dition has retreated gradually be¬fore the attack of new ideas, al¬though the indomitable spirit of Ogden remains unchanged." This ws written only fifteen years ago, yet the "finest high school building of the state" has come to bQ. one of the inferior high ; school buildings of the state. ; At that time Ogden High was a ' i four-year high school with about ,' 400 students and had a graduating class of 48. In 1920 the develop¬ment of the junior high school took away the ninth grade. During the past two years the crowded con¬dition of the senior high has neces¬sitated the holding back of prac¬tically all of the tenth grade stu- dents in junior high; yet there re- ; main in the two upper classes 1000 students and the graduating class will consist of 315 members. RADIO ON THE PEAK. Saturday afternoon, Warren Cross and Byron Crittenden, mem¬bers of the Ham-And Radio club, j' hiked to Observatory peak, taking with them a one tube radio set, with which they listened in during the night. While on their hike they discovered a Complete but an¬cient kit of mifters' tools; they, , found also that the flag pole put up j j by the students of Weber has served its day and should be re¬placed by a new one; that sliding on the snowdrifts comprises an ex- 3 cellent and speedy means of re- turning. ; BACCALAUREATE. The baccalaureate sermon will j be delivered by the Rev. J. E. Carver on Sunday, May 24, probably I j at 11 o'clock.
