Show GIRLS' DANCE Girls, it isn't too early to break the news to your best boy friend. Don't keep him waiting--suspense is suffereing to some people! STELLAE This is a plea to all Stellae girls--please reduce! It is quite a serious occurrence when a team of horses cannot pull nine girls. Stellae men, we congratulate you! If we had not had your mighty support our bob-sleigh party would have ended in disaster. But then, what party would not be a success with the shining stars of Stellae as pilots on a non-stop sleigh ride. The moon was full and what a night it was for studying stars. Not only can the Stellites study stars, but they can solve any murder case equally as well. Juts ask Duane to tell you how Dorothy was murdered or how Jim was mysteriously stabbed through the heart. If you know of a murder case which all others have failed to figure out just tell us about it and the mystery will soon be solved. --Helen Madson. HEART THROBS WITH AGNES ... M'WISECRACK! Dear Agnes: I'm just a little lad unable to make any headway with the girls. What shall I do? Also, every time I start "brushing up" to one, Mickey Chez "horns" in. What shall I do? Howard Creenwell. Dear Howard: Try Listerine! And as for the boy friend, well, Hickman's Axe Handles are made of sturdiest wood and are guaranteed to last for at least five (5) murders! Next? Agnes. ANOTHER SEMESTER Some of us do not realize what different phases of art are taught in our school. We merely think of art as another study. Mr. Stewart teaches three main phases of this subject: Drawing, interior decoration and designing. The variety should enable each student to spend his time profitably and enjoyably. The classes in drawing and sketching are at present studying figure construction without a model; the interior decoration classes are studying color harmony; color as applied to design is the problem of the designing classes. Everyone is invited to visit the art room and see the different types of work. --A.N. Owl. January 8, 1931 Ogden High School Notes Gallantry is the act of surren?dering your seat in a street car to an unattractive woman, when you intend to get off at the next corner. BIT OF INFORMATION There are two hundred and fifty lucky boys in this school, and that is all. You ask why? Because there are only two hundred and fifty tickets to be sold for the Accolade. We are not giving this dance of dances to make money. We are giving it for our own enjoyment, and if more than five hundred people try to dance in the Berthana it won't be very comfortable. No tickets will be sold at the door, so get your ticket early or maybe you won't get one, and then won't you be embarrassed, when you have to tell your very best boy friend that you can't take him to the Accolade after all. The tickets will be $1 per couple and I'm sure that that won't be too much for you girls because you know that you have to take the boys to only one dance a year. You'll be able to get tickets Friday morning from Yvonne Peirce, Ruth Greaves, Gertrude Wadley, Julia Cain, Guinever Wooley, Dorothy Broome, Ruth Hawkins. All's fair in love, war and ticket seling. YVONNE PEIRCE. THE ROAD TO HAPPINESS (Continuted) Preserve an open mind on all debatable quiestions. Discuss, but don't argue. It is the mark of superior minds to disagree and yet be friendly. let your virtues, if you have any, speak for themselves, and refuse to talk of another's vices. Discourage gossip. Make it a point to say nothing to another unless it is something good. Be careful of others' feelings. Wit at the other fellow's expense is rarely worth the rffort, and may hurt where least expected. Pay no attention to ill-natured remarks about you. Simploy live on that nobody will believe them. Disordered nerves and bad digestion are common cause of back-biting. Don't be too anxious about getting your just dues. Do you work, be patient, keep your disposition sweet, forget self, and you will be respected and rewarded. CONGRESS Congress was called to order Monday by President Nelson and a debate on the Forum-Congress subject: "Resolved: That a change to the thirteen-month calendar be approved," was given. The affirmatlve was upheld by Alice Dunn and Virginia Hunter, the negative! by Virginia True and Kipoko Oda. No decision was given, but a some¬what lonnthy discussion and criti¬cism ensued.

Some one once said "the best things are never found on the surface," so our motto for that day will be, "Let us dig, dig, dig; go down, down, down, for cleaner and softer snow is un¬derneath." LORNA MALAN. LOOKING FORWARD One of the finest opportunties of- ered our students is the chance to earn to face an audience success¬fully. One may gain this by enroli¬ng in Mrs. McKay's public speaking and debating class which meets sev¬enth period. A series of debates is scheduled for this next Thursday, Friday, and next Monday. The topics for de-bate are: Resolved, that the thir¬teen monthcalendarshould be adopted. Resolved, that the United States should recognize the soviet government. And resolved, that the state penitentiary should be moved from Salt Lake City to Antelope island. A. N. OWL. HEART THROBS WITH AGNES Mc WISECRACK Dear Agnes: You seem to know a lot. Well, here's one for you. How can you get eggs without hens. Think fast, sister. JOE FOLEY. Answer: Where do you get that sister stuff? Keep ducks. Next! AGGIE. DEBATING The state high school debate ques¬tion this year will be: Resolved, that chain stores are detrimental to the business interests of the Amer¬ican public. It is the impression of a few that one must be a member of Forum orL Congress clubs to be eligible for the school team. This is an absolute folly, as the team is chosen from the entire student body. Material on the question is rather abundant ana can be obtained at tne Carne¬gie library. The debating coaches are desirous that each one who has had any experience in debating try out in order that a worthy team may represent our school and up-hold the splendid record that our past teams have established. Re¬member that time is short, and so you'll have to start immediately. Let's have a good turnout. SNOOPY. CHATTER AND CHAFF Marion: "What:s wrong with Doyle? He is limping terribly." Nathalie: "You can't blame him, he hasn't had much practice." Helen: "Is David Morrell ill?" Elaine: "Yes, he swallowed a book of traffic rules and they recovered only the appendix." Did you hear about the absent- minded professor who lathered his face and then shaved the fuzz off, his towel? COUNCIL Regular Councii meeting was called to order by President Corry. The minutes were read and approved, Miss Ensign reported that Beta Zeta Tau was the only club that had not handed in their constitution. This report was accepted by a motion. January 9, 1930 Ogden High School Notes Personality is the front cover of the human magazine. Intelligence is the contents and according to its quality it either loses the subscriber or keeps him sold. GIRLS' ACCOLADE Do all you fair ones realize that in just one week from tonight our big function takes place? Need we remind you that if you miss this af¬fair you lose something that can never be replaced? Come on—then! The dates are going fact, but there are still a lot of fellows to whom an invitation to the Accolade would mean the world. Don't be shy. Dash up and pop the question. The tickets are also going fast.

Committees for the Accolade are as follows: General chairmen—Dor¬othy Knowlden and Elaine Evans. G. A. president—Helen Van Buren. Tickets—Yvonne Peirce, chairman; Guinivere Woolley, Gertrude Wadley, Dorothy Broome, Ruth Greaves, Ruth Hawkins and Julia Cain.

STUDENT SCORES HIGH We have observed under recent date that 400 students at the Uni¬versity of Utah failed in their re¬cent term tests. Naturally we have asked ourselves how many Ogden High school students are among the unfortunates. Certainly we are en¬couraged in the report of Eleanor Wedell, a graduate of two years ago, who has listed 16 hours of straight A's. Her report for the term is as follows: Latin A, English A, Span¬ish A, chemistry A. We congratulate you Eleanor and wish you continued success. Natur¬ally we, also, are proud of such a record. AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Anut Jane: By looking in the trophy case you see many beautiful trophies won by the R. O. T. C. rifle team. Why is it that they don't have a member in Council? They have done more for O. H. S. than most of the or-ganizations represented in Council and are just as important.—X. Dear X: The rifle team is an activity just as is the football team, the basket¬ball team, the school play, the opera, etc. ,and therefore has no representative in Council. You can understand the situation if all of these different activities were rep¬resented in Council, can you not? We have not overlooked the fact that the rifle team does much for our school and we hope it keeps up its good work.—Aunt Jane. It was moved and seconded thatthe old business of the Dramatic Art club be taken from the table. The motion was passed. Mr. Brunetti, the president of the club, reported they had reorganized their constitution. The business was tabled until D. A. C. sees the school club committee about their constitution. Carpe Diem and Zeta Phi Xi were given permission for a joint party! the 16th, and Joie Francaise a party n the 24th. A discussion followed on the subjects of pompoms. It was moved and seconded that at each meeting starting today, one article of the school constitution be read. This motion was passed. The first article being very short, Mr. Corry read the first two, and a dis¬cussion on them followed. Meeting then adjourned. RAYMOND RATY, Secretary. GIRLS In order to make the Accolade a bigger success than ever, we have decided to have more dances than we planned at first. Instead of hav¬ing 12 dances and three extras there will be fifteen dances and three ex¬tras. The dances will naturally be shorter, but see how many more fellows get a lucky break. LOST Some time ago a pair of glasses -was lost somewhere in the halls. The owner is having a hard time getting along without them and will there¬fore be much obliged if anyone hav¬ing found them will please return them to the office. Thank you. HEART THROBS Dear Kindhearted Agnes: I'm only a junior, but you would not know it by looking at me now, for I have just purchased a new coat. The only objectionable fea¬ture is that I don't like the wood across the shoulders, and the hook keeps pushing my hat off. Is there anything I can do?—Ed Olan. Answer: Yes, I'm sure there is. Now you just go down to the river and sub¬merge your head three times, but remember to pull it out twice. I think that will end your worries. Agnes. Question: Dear Agnes: With whom is Bob Kimball going to the Accolade? Answer: You inquisitive little wretch! I'll have you understand that I don't answer questions which have any at-tempt to pry into my private affairs. —Agnes. SHORTHAND CLASS To increase their speed and effi¬ciency the students of Miss Evans' second year shorthand classes have been taking forty-five minute tran¬scription tests every Tuesday at 3:30 in Mr. Farnsworth's room. Miss Evans is planning to take some studenst to the contest in Provo in the spring and expects some plendid results. It's entirely up to the students as to the medals they walk away with for they are given every opportunity possible by Miss Evans to become really efficient. FORUM At last we have received the state debate question which this year wall be: "Resolved, that the chain stores are detrimental to the business in¬terests of the American people." All those desirous of trying out for the school team can start to work now. Next meeting we will meet Congress for the second time this year, and it remains for our team, composed of Sheldon Winkler and Ellis Cragun, to avenge us for the defeat we suffered earlier. The de¬bate promises to be a lively affair, and we are hoping for the best. Our meeting Monday was primarily de¬voted to a final workout of our as¬sembly, which comes Friday. We think we have a better assembly than last year, so all you habitual assembly sluffers just throw aside the sour looks and come up and see whether or not you have any of that famed sense of humor left. So adios, friends, until we again appear be¬fore you next Friday.—Preston Mul¬cahy. SEND IT IN If you have a bit of news —Send it in, Or a joke that will amuse, —Send it in. A story that is new, We want to hear from you, —Send it in; Never mind about your style, If it's only worth the while —Send it in. |
