the wish of Chas. S. Noble, proof reader, Standard-Examiner." Gee! That's fine. We hope w merit it! As we have said be fore, the object of this column i to acquaint the patrons of ou great school with our work, hopes, ideals, and if we are measurably successful, we are indeed very happy. DOESN'T BELONG HERE This story doesn't belong here; It doesn't pertain to a high school teacher, but since it pertains to a teacher in the city schools as was verified by a prominent prin­cipal of one of our schools, we must publish it. It's too good to keep. It illustrates again the very prevalent idea that school teachers are unsophisticated. Well, as the story goes, one of our eligible male teachers went . touring in his Ford through Yellowstone park last summer and , he didn't go alone. He had his "Jane" along to break the mo­notony of the long drive. As he , I ambled into the park he was hailed by a policeman with, "Hey j there, Dummy, use both hands." ,s j "I can't," said Ichabod, "I've got to keep one hand on the wheel." (Note: High school boys, please I do not read the above. We know : you will not understand It.) WILL ATTEND WEBER Ogden High promises to be the chief feeder of Weber college.

The enrollment of the year will : I probably exceeds that of last year j -which means that we shall be j ljust a little more crowded. j I We' hope the board of education ! has not forgotten that we need a ! new high school-and need it j very badly. The senior high schol j should be able to accomodate all j of the tenth eleventh and twelftn i grades. According to present ar­rangement . only a part of the tenth grade students are being i cared for at senior high- j girls' assembly j The first assembly of the Girls' association will be held on Wednesday morning at 8:30 o'clock. ; All girls should arrange to be ; present. President Mabel Reynolds will give the keynote ad- j dress, outlining the work of the ( year. The dean of girls, Gertrude Coolidge Irwin, will also address j the girls. HAM AND "The Radio club held its first j meetiiig'ton Thursday "evening last and most' of the members were there. Committees were appoint­ed to secure a date for the Ra­dio cJub, and also to get club pins. After the transaction of business, E. G. Smith, ' the club's i advisor, gave one of his interest- ; ing talks on his experience with i I radio. The club promises to excel j its excellent record of last year, j j Watch for the date of our Radio club!" SCOTT KELLOGG, reporter. FROM MISS BERNE The school has received an in­teresting letter from Miss Erica Berne, 1925 class valedictorian. Erica has now finished four j weeks of work at the University of California and is much pleased with the school. She says stu­dents are well cared for and that the classes are not overly large, ! as has often been reported. Aside j from doing her school work, Miss Berne is tutoring some in mathe­matics and is getting some very fine experience. She says that she often relives her happy O. H. S. days and has happy times in talking alma mater matters with Chester Zinn and Jean Ranzy, who ' are likewise attending the univer­sity. Miss Erica is also much interested still in the Stellae club Which she was instrumental in or- j ganizing last year, and closes her letter with, "Be sure to keep an eye on the 'Stellae' and see that i it continues to prosper. j "Always a High Schoolite, "Erica Berne." j FORTUNATE STUDENTS Last week and again today many parents were present at school assisting their sons and daughters in getting properly reg­istered. We regard the students ; who have help of Lhis sort as j particularly fortunate as none is 1 more interested in one's welfare than his parents, and a little counsel at this time helps a good deal. We commend parents for this action and hope their ex­ample will be followed by many others. Every parent should make it a point to visit the high school occasionally and give us the bene­fit of their counsel and advice. A FINE STUNT Ogden Rotary international de­cided recently to make the O. H. S. student body president honor­ary member of the club during the year, with all the privileges of a regular member. President Jim Ure was advised of this ac­tion by Superintendent Hopkins at the assembly on Friday and told him that he was expected to attend Rotary luncheon every Wednesday at 12 o'clock. We commend highly this action of Ro­tary. It is kind, generous and wise. Every club should seek some means of connecting up of­ficials with Ogden's big institu­tion-the senior high school. We congratulate James on this high honor and we also commend the club on doing this very splendid thing. COINCIDENCE The high school received a let­ter on Friday from C. C. Wilson, principal of Jersey High school, asking for the credits of a cer­tain student. The printed station­ery designated the name of the principal as Charles C. Wilson, the same name as the minister of the Ogden Congregational church, and made the office force wonder if the principal could be the min­ister. The thought was enforced also by the handwriting, which resembled much the writing of our Mr. Wilson. Of course it couldn't be, but it is a rather striking coincidence. SINGING CONTESTS Mr. Gammell announces that he purposes having an official boys' quartet of the school this year and alSo a girls' quartet; that the eight people comprising these tw fine organizations will be chosen from the best talent of the school by means of tryouts that will be held tomorrow, Tues­day. Any students who might covet the honor (and who would not?) ob belonging to either of these small but -select groups are invited to meet Mr. Gammell any time on Tuesday and have their voices tested. Who knows but that we shall have two exceptionally fine quartets? We believe we shall and we urge students to try out for places. It will be a high honor to belong to these musical organizations. MORALS AND COURTESY Last Monday a student had the misfortune to lose a five-dollar greenback at school. On Thurs­day a boy lost a ten-dollar bill near school. In both cases the money was found and handed in at the office and was reclaimed by the owners. We think this speaks volumes for the honesty and character of the students who found the money and their action reflects favorably upon the entire student body. In the case of the ten-dollar recovery the boy was so grateful that he generously offered the student two dollars for returning it. Strangely enough, the student refused any compensation, thus exhibiting a high sense of honor and courtesy. CAN MORALITY BE TAUGHT? During the past several years ,, educators have concerned them- j I selves greatly with the problem j of "moral instruction in the ! schools." One of the finest pieces , of work in this connection, we j think, is being done at State col- J lege at Ames, la., where a com- j plete program has been outlined j for the establishment and culture J of the necessary virtues. Among ; these virtues which need definite attention, social qualities, tact, co-operation, leadership, tolerance, poise, adaptability, personal ap­pearance, optimism, interest in work, enthusiasm, judgment, friendliness, courtesy and consid- f eration, refinement, spirit of ser- j vice, firmness and sympathy re- i ceive consideration. The sugges­tions regarding the development of these qualities are so pertinent that we purpose presenting them, as opportunity affords, to our readers. Oddly the school does not speak of developing virtues or character, but personality. I Here are the suggestions on "How to Develop Courtesy and j Consideration": Never hurt the feelings of another person, no matter how little he is or how little you like him. Study to do little things that others like-also the big things -and show your pleasure in do- ing them. i 3. Take your turn in line. 4. Show special consideration ! for helpless and infirm. 5. Remember that a diamond j cut and polished is more desired ' than one in the fough, and that i either is preferred to perfectly polished glass. sept 22-25 Ogden High School notes Girls' association tomorrow j morning at 8:30 o'clock. All girls, are expected to be there. The new registration system I which provides for a preliminary registration near the close ot , school in the spring, and then ; ! enrolling with the teachers of the i different subjects in the fall is ; j proving very satisfactory. The ; plan makes it possible for the ! principal to decide before the ! school opens just how many ! classes are necessary and to pre­pare the class schedule. TYPING POPULAR. ! There are about 360 students ! now enrolled for typewriting and ! still others clamoring for oppor- j 1 unity to enroll. As there are ; not sufficient machines nor teach- I ers to accommodate others a real j problem is presented. If only we ' coufld know now just what i students have sufficient skill,, pa- i tience and determination to suc­ceed as typists, it would be pos­sible to eliminate the unfit and give the machines to the com­petent. Then we should, in all likelihood, have ample accommo­dations. R.O.T.C. enrollment. Students were advised today that all senior high students who I expect to enroll in R. O T C should do so before Wednesday j evening, September 23, as the _jequipment is limited, and if students do not get the suits now they will be given to junior high students. In this connection it is well that all high school boys realize that two years' drill in ; senior high is required for gradu­ation in all courses. All girls are required also to take two years of physical education to meet graduation requirements. GEOMETRY REQUIRED. For the past two years the J junior and senior high have re- j quired that students take both algebra and geometry to meet graduation requirements. One reason for this is that no college will admit a student without both of these subjects and a second reason is that the study of these subjects gives students invaluable training in straight, logical think­ing, and consequently superior preparation for life as well as col­lege. SHORT-SIGHTED UTILITAR­IANS. Students frequently complain about some subjects, notably mathematics and science, as having no practical use in life and there­fore not to be studied at school. Of what use will it be to me? is the perpetually rising question. In answer, we might say that school doesn't aim to -give facts, informa­tion, knowledge primarily-but power, capacity, skill, ability. It is the habits of thought study, conduct that are to count most in life and school aims first, last and all the time, to establish helpful habits and right attitude. Secondly, the inventions, dis- I coveries, instruments, conveni­ences of modern life have all come to use from studies that re­late to mathematics, mechanics, science, history, etc., and that to live well in a modern world one must understand the underlying principles and laws as revealed through various fields of study. REAL MEANING. ! Education isn't just acquiring j the skill that attaches to a narrow field of work, but a 4rue realiza- ! tion of the principles upon which i every great industry or institution is founded. The building of a bridge, a house, an automobile, the meas­uring of a piece of land, the suc­cessful growing of a field of beets, the printing of a paper, or the setting of a broken leg-doing any ordinary piece of work in the modern world-doesn't requiro just mere skill or facility of ma­nipulation; but a rather profound and worth-while knowledge of the processes that enter into the work. It takes now 18 years of training to make a lawyer, 20 years a physician and 30 years to make a real worth-while man. Thirty years training for 70 years real living isn't any too much, as most people now know. LONG SIGHTED THEORISTS. On the other hand, practice of ignoring the subjects that, give practice, skill, vocational training- are more or less neglected. Too many girls are saying, "I can , learn to cook and sew at home." ; Too many boys say, ' "I do not I want to be a carpenter, a mason, ! a mechanics, no trade for me." These look too much like work to many. The notions grow out of false notions about the meaning of work and its significance in life, ! We recommend that boys and j girls aim each year at school to take some practical course that is closely related to the vocations of life, so that they might not only acquire skill and ability to know how to do a few things well, but shall find joy and pleas­ure in the doing of them. COUPON BOOKS. The student body officers are arranging this year to give each student with his student body ticket a coupon book which will enable them to enter the games and entertainments. Each book contains 18 coupons serially num­bered, oe of which will be de­tached at every event. This will avoid the confusion and annoy­ance of handing in the card and then getting it back from the ad­visor. The athletic committee is responsible for this splendid iSg
