Show CARPE DIEM—Girls' club. December 4 ,1924. To enjoy the pres¬ent day. The active senior mem¬bers shall determine the member¬ship limit at the beginning of each year. After the first six weeks, enough seniors shall be elected to active membership to fill the desig¬nated quota; pledges (juniors) shall be recommended for membership by an active member. Wednesday, 3:35. THE ANNUAL CLASSIC On Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock the annual classic football game between Ogden and Weber will be played in the city stadium. This will be for the city championship land is arousing no little interest in Ogden city and Weber county. Good weather has been arranged for this event and it is anticipated that a record crowd will be in at-tendance. Either Ogden or Weber will win—which? WE HAVE HEARD We may be wrong, but we heard that: Initiations assist the raw oyster business materially. We'd rather exchange our "ifs" for intestinal fortitude during the influx of pledge medicine. The two gentlemen members of the junior class executive board advise (from experience) that those in¬dividuals fortunate enough to have a choice between unprepared eggs or unprepared oysters should choose the former. Bob Kimball attributes his win¬ning ways to the fact he devotes fifteen minutes daily to reading Dorothy Dix's column of advice. Coach Simkins is tenderly referred to as Baldy in sporting circles. Famous last words—Assembly ad¬journed. COUNCIL MEETING Council was called to order by President Corry. The minutes were read and corrected. Marion Ensign reported that Congress, Forum, Beta Zeta Tau and I-Wannan-O had handed in their constitutions this last week. John Cawley report¬ed that the six candidates for yell leaders had tried out, and that Council was to vote on them. Andy Brunetti was chosen as the cheer master and he will choose his assistants. Phi Lambau Tau and I- Wannan-O were given permission to have parties the 17th and 18th of October, respectively. Ellis Cragun was appointed parliamentarian by the president for the next six weeks. There is a new one appointed every six weeks. John Cawley and Doyle Jensen were elected to the finance committee. Their duties were read by the president. The school stage manager was then brought up for discussion. It was moved and seconded that Council seelct a stage manager and he in turn select his assistants. From these Council can choose the stage manager at the end of the term for the following year. This motion was amended by adding the clause that the manager and his assistants be chosen upon the recommendation of the music! and dramatic art instructors. The t amendment was passed. The original motion was then voted on and passed. President Corry advised the football members to have selected a regular council member until they could attend. Preston Mulcahy, Frank Foley and Mary Walker were appointed to act as the social com¬mittee. Council then adjourned. Raymond Raty, secretary.

You mod¬est lads who have not as yet pro¬cured your pasteboards and, most important of all your women, shift the old dogs into high and do so without further delay. Leave all your formality behind and remember that while a tux isn't forbidden it's not popular. The admission will be 50 cents a person, so dig down into the old sock and bring forth one of the numerous—pardon please—the few coins that still are left. Don't for¬get to enjoy yourself immensely. SNAKE DANCE Thursday night at 7:30 o'clock the snake dance which we have been anticipating for some time will start winding its crooked way down town in an effort to stimulate further enthusiasm for our game with We¬ber. The students are asked to co¬operate with the officers in the pre¬vention of the destruction of property that has been so prevalent snake dances of the past. This van¬dalism must be abolished. If not, it will spell the doom of any fur¬ther affairs. Bring your pep and enthusiasm and all the excess en¬ergy you can muster up. Don't forget the time, the place, and the girl —that is, if you are unfortunate enough to have one. THE GAME Don't forget the annual football clash with our traditional rivals Fri¬day! The Warriors are out for a win and will have to fight and fight hard. Of all of our games this is the most important, and the team will need the help of that twelfth man in the stands. Let's have him yell like he has never yelled before, fel¬lows! School will be dismissed at 1:45 o'clock and the students will have ample time to journey to the stadium before the first whistle is blown. Be good sports, students! MOTHERS' TEA PROGRAM A very pleasing program was giv¬en for the Mothers' Tea which was held this afternoon. The program was as follows: Cornet solo—Fay Seager. Welcome to mothers and introduc¬tion of Girls' association officers— Helen Van Buren. Dance—Wanda Weeble and Dor¬othy Wintle. Reading—Katherine Moyes. Trio—Ruth Greaves, Dorothy Knowlden, Yvonne Pierce. Reading—Virginia True. Violin solo—Winona Olsen. The mothers expressed uncon¬cealed satisfaction at the quality of the numbers, and their only regret was that it couldn't have continued much longer. Following the program, a lovely tea was served in the girls' rest room by girls of the domestic science department. The Notes desires to give a sin- cere vote of thanks to Lucille Spen¬cer, who gives no small amount of her time in order that the ma-terial in this column be typewritten before it is handed to the paper to be published. Her work, neatly done and arranged, is always on time. Again we thank you, Lucille. STELLAE Stellae, the Stars (for the benefit of non-Latin students) which cog¬nomen can be interpreted to mean the study of the stars and the var¬ious phases of astronomy or to clas¬sify the club members which would be entirely proper as one can see by calling the roll, has started off the new school year with more than its usual vim and vigor. We are getting under way with renewed in¬terest in our study of astronomy and are now reading "The Romance of Modern Astronomy," a very interest¬ing book by McPherson. We expect to read several notable works this year in addition to having themes by the Stars themselves. Our pins will be here shortly to sparkle on Stellae breasts. Oh! Yesl We are not going to neglect rthe social activities of our club, either. "Watch our smoke," as the comets said to the moon while they were engaged in a game of tag. DUANE G. DARLING, Reporter. CARPE DIEM Oh, dear, we are in a fix! Mr. Smith has threatened to take us on; a hike to Mount Ogden for the purpose of teaching us just why "Carpe" was organized. Of course, we would jlove to go, but we fear the results. It does seem a bit inconsistent to our would surely make us phly incapable of following our Carpe Diem (enjoy the da Ir several days afterward. Will one please suggest a more e sport that will be just as ef ke but not quite as impressive. I Oh, yes, our get-acquainted has been postponed. It will k given until next week. Never? "Wise men change their often." LORNA MALAN, Reporter CHEER LEADER SELECTED Council last week selected as master, master, Andy Brunetti, who in I selected as his assistants, Lafe , der and a junior who is nei course, but full of pep and entnusiasm, and will make a capable lead¬er. Jack Carr is the lucky indi¬vidual. The staff chosen is "rearin'" to go and will handle the yelling very efficiently. The capers of Lafe Snyder will be missed temporarily but only until he nurses his broker arm to a healthy state again. Wher that fractured wing heals he'll b< out there just as strong and full o pep as ever. The leaders ask tha the students learn the yells (wit! emphasis on Ah-ah-ee-oh), so tha the coming rally for the Weber gam will be a howling success. Ogden High School Notes Otober 24, 1930 THE WORTH OF A SCHOOL DAY "The child earns nine dollars every day it goes to school." This statement was made by State Superintendent of Public Instruction C. P. Cary of Wisconsin. He bases his estimate on the official records of the bureau of education at Wash¬ington. Here's what he offers as proof of the statement: "Uneducated laborers earn on the average $500 a year for forty years, a total of $20,000. "High school graduates earn on an average $1000 a year for forty years, a total of $40,000. "This education requires twelve years of school of 180 days each, a total of 2160 days. If 2160 days at school adds $20,000 to the income for life, then each day at school adds. $9.02." "Forceful as this summarization of earnings may seem," said Mr. Cary, "it tells but one side of the story— the money side. Back of this can be seen improved standards of liv¬ing, more intelligent and progres¬sive communities, and a stronger na¬tional life." PHI LAMBDA TAU Attention juniors! Just one more long school day and two short holi¬days, and then—well, there's going to be some lucky juniors in the school. It does seem odd that a mere junior should be lucky, but there's going to be several sometime next week. We have the privilege of voting in six of you, and it's certain¬ly hard to decide which to have from the large group of brilliant girls from whom we may choose. Our meeting was called to order hy President Cave, and several im¬portant things were discussed, among them, the juniors whom we're going to choose to share the simple honors of our humble club, Phi Lambda Tau, as was mentioned be¬fore. As these things took up all of our time, we then adjourned.—V. J. FORUM At Forum's meeting Monday night fine talks upon the ethics of de¬bating were given by two of the members. After learning the pro¬cedure, our debates ought to be much more interesting. With the state debates coming up soon, things we learn now ought to help us greatly in putting Ogden High on the map. The questions proposed for the state debate were also submitted to us and even this soon there are some preparing for the debating team. Even as early as next week j one of these questions will be up j for discussion. With such an early start we expect big things in the state debates this year. CONGRESS Another interesting Congress meeting was held Monday, October 20. After Marion Ensign had re-ported on a chapter from the Debaters' Manual, an extemporaneous debate was given by four of the members. The subject was: "Re¬solved: That clubs in high school should be abolished." No decision was rendered. The debating having sbeen discussed, the meeting was adjourned. All girls interested in debating arc welcome to the Congress meetings. JOIE FRANCAIS Parlez-vous Francais? Well, il you do, look out. You may get a chance to join us. Last year we were not so outstanding, but this year we're going to be the happiest J jolliest club of the school. Our officers are: President, Naomi Wall; vice president, Echo Vaughn; and secretary, Marian Gimlin. They are going to lead us through with fly¬ing, colors. Watch for our new uni- R. O. T. C. The first company competition of the year was held Wednesday in the cadet corps. Each company went through a number of successive movements and formations for a company and wound up with execut¬ing all the movements in the man¬ual of arms. The cadets of company B finally won out by a small margin. Offi¬cers of the company are Captain E. Lowham, Lieutenants Fred Morris and Charles Peterson. The drill of all companies was very good for this time of the year, but there are many rough spots to be smoothed out. Judges for the competition were Sergeant Halloway, cadet officers, Jack Hilton, Jim Riley and Gilbert Tolhurst. Rifle marksmanship will be taken up next week. WE'VE HEARD— We may be wrong, but we've heard that: His imperial nibs, Joe Foley, will attend the frolic at the Berthana. Give the ears and extra scrubbing, women. He may favor you with a dance. Egad! The captains have become un¬usually popular with the femmes this week. For the benefit of the ignorant juniors we state that the sponsors are soon to be chosen. Live and learn, greenhorns. A certain teacher upon being asked what he thought of the teach¬ers' convention remarked: "I learned nothing (what a braggart) and wasted a lot of money." Cheer up! Pay day comes twice a month. Mr. Peterson says that teachers get good money. What they do get is good, but he feels that it isn't enough to keep the wolf from the door. Serves him right! If he lived in Ogden instead of Huntsville he wouldn't have to worry about those wild wolves that roam the savage country near his residence. OVERHEARD IN THE HALL Sure! Why not? It's going to be one of the best of the year. Besides, there's going to be a big crowd and that means we'll have a keen time. How much? Only fifty cents a per¬son. Sure, it's informal. All of our school dances are. Yes, I think I'll take a partner, but I'd advise you to come even if you can't get one. There'll be lots of stags, and maybe, some fellow will get generous and give you a dance. O. K.. I'll see you at the Berthana at 9 o'clock tonight. Tests in Europe of international telephone conversations have shown that Italian is the most intelligible language, but that French conveys a given number of ideas in the shortest time. COUNCIL MEETING Council was called to order by President Corry. The minutes were read and corrected. The council parliamentarian reported on some difficulties that arose the previous meeting on nominations and the right to withdraw a motion. Marion Ensign reported on all the clubs whose constitutions had been rati-fied and handed to her. It was moved and seconded that the clubs which had not handed in their con-stitutions be permitted to have a representative in the assembly Fri¬day, Oct. 24, providing they give their constitutions to Miss Ensign by Oct. 24. The motion was passed. The secretary reported on the stu¬dent body stationery. This report was accepted. Carpe Diem was granted a party for Oct. 25. The president announced that there will be a snake dance Thursday, Oct. assisted by Bob Kimball, Preston Mulcahy and George Thatcher will supervise this dance. Mr. Brunetti asked the club presidents to hand their club reports for the school Ogden High School Notes October 22, 1930 ANDREW BRUNETTI Editor Pro Tem MOTHERS' TEA On Tuesday, the Girls' association issud invitations for their annual , Mothers' tea to be, given Thursday, Octcber 23, from 2 to 5 o'clock.

Two-thirty, Thursday afternoon. Be there! SYMPATHY The students extend their most sincere sympathy to Oertel Aadneson and family who recently suf-fered an irreparable loss when their father passed away. Words are futile in attempting to console for such a loss, but we hope that these words may contain a spark of cheer for them in their darkest hour. I-WANNON-O I-Wannan-O started out on its |
