Show Thank you again for your splendid cooperation, girls, we appreciate it. NELLIE JUNIOR. CHATTER AND CHAFF Ila McKell has taken to housework, but this time the "Broome" happens to be an Elmer. Holly Arthur has suffered broken ribs. Now maybe she'll stay away from those big strong silent men. Have you noticed a slight swelling, under Miss Schofield's ears? It so, beware. Mumps is very con-tagious. Evidently many people are indebt¬ed to Margaret Thomas. All she can say is "Owe me." Keep it up, Margaret, they must get the idea soon. Annual shoe removing contest is now on. Ray Raty is in the lead with fifteen shoes to his credit. (Ed Olsen's toe was swollen or Ray would have had sixteen). Clyde Hunter is running him a close second with fourteen shoes. Who will win, folks? NELLIE JUNIOR. Hoot mon! When is Gilbert Tol¬hurst going to wear his knickers again? O. H. S. debutante slang, "And say, fems! Did you lamp the sor- row in his eyelids when we ordered two more gedunks?" Paul Goddard has become a Dorothy Dix enthusiast. Ho, hum! NEW TROPHIES Our trophy case is decorated to¬day by three new trophies, the American Legion cup, the Para¬mount Publix theatres cup and the relay carnival plaque won at Provo recently. Surely we shall need an¬other trophy case soon. CONCERNING ELECTION We are quickly reaching the cli¬max of the present school year and though it may seem a bit early, we should be thinking about next year when our present juniors are going to carry on just as last year's ju-niors have so ably done this year. Every student has his share in gov¬erning the student body, but out of necessity this must be done through the three officers who are your choice. Be careful in your selec¬tion. See that your men, or ladies, are representative students and fully capable of carrying the busi¬ness of student governing on their shoulders. Even though we regret the loss of our seniors and capable officers of this past school year, we are confident that there is excel¬lent material in the juniors.

Thence to drill where I find that we are to engage in a cleaning of all the guns for our inspection which is coming. Methinks I should have done better anon to have gone to divers places until mine good fellows did, have them spic and span. We must eens clean out each speck of dirt for the fear that an officious inspector must look in them to see if we have. Anon, in the evening, to see a picture which moveth which was called "Trader Horn." Methinks it an great farce as another "Ingagi" and methought there was no great education in it though I may be wrong for I have no great taste for pictures of this kind. Home in an vehicle which is in¬deed very ancient. Methinks that I had seen it in the seventeenth cen-tury when I was writing mine diary before. It was called an Model T Ford. It haveth an great time on the hill but finally after much chugging it maketh it. —Charles Wood. CHATTER AND CHAFF Wouldn't it be wonderful if we all; had: The hair of Helen Tanner. The eyes of Elaine Evans. The teeth of Virginia Hunter. The face of Anna Fox. The disposition of Virginia True And the scholastic ability of Dorothy Nelson. Great names are found in quee: c places. If you don't believe it, lool j on the stump of the fallen tree ou in front. Why the hectic flush, Coach Simkins, or is it "athlete's heart?" Mary Walker (on day of Loyalty parade): "Hey, you back there witfi the orange tie, cut out the racket." And there was the who wrote Aunt Jane and she might wear the fairy costume she wore in "Rose-red and Snow-white" for the graduating exercises. Jane, you jolly clown, freckle crop blooming thii i or did the freezing freckle dll q blight their growth? Famous last words (with apologies to Ted Cook): "And William Walker--that will be all for now." HALL OF FAME We nominate to the Hall of Fame Mr. Merrill—because he Is our very competent principal—because if he were to give up being our principal he could double for Graham McNamee or Floyd Gibbons--because he let us girls off to see the R. O. T. C. boys' inspection --and just because. Mrs. Irwin—because she's Mrs. Irwin—because she is alw and willing to help—became fl girls love her—and also justb Miss Chesney—because tej has spent a lot of time —because she can keep a caanvfl orderly with fewer words other five people we knot. Dad Beeson—because we drifl most the things we arei lose—because he is an enri 5 the rule that fine things e small packages—because he's right. RETROSPECT Seniors are now fondly about and taking a lasting mm brance of what is soon to be t alma mater. It is not with itnjfl that they review and recouo places and happenings of theftp two years, for they have been e ful ones. The years of youth H r golden, and each hour is as in one's memory. Indeed thoii various gems, both sad ouI cheerful, yet combined they a bountiful collection ,ladene the fruits of industry and thl rof friendship and association i is only through the eyes of that the scene of departure Isaft more vivid and their token of ptfffl tude makes lustrous and moredl their regret to leave that where the fond hopes of votnjj jits future have been nurtilliafl inspired. However the psychology of ture is such that when we something slipping from us weiffl ish it the more. Ogden High school's faculty and student are deeply indebted to their Mtife for they have proven not ip wholesome and energetic, but t scholastic and have set i standard for others to follow. Ogden High school lifts its head with to bid the seniors of 1931 farewell and although it might retire to have their friendly counteniaoatafl .its midst always, progression mons them on to higher and niifl endeavors. —Betty Goddard.
