QUEER POSITIONS It's quite a common thing these days to see some students curled up in a corner with their chin in their knees, some nearly standing on their heads, others lying flat on the floor of the hall or on the lawn and still others sitting in waste paper baskets trying to tell their friends (through the medium of autographing yearbooks), how much i they think of them or how much they're going to miss them vtien they're gone. Well, it's a grand old life! WE EXPRESS SYMPATHY The heart of every high school girl goes out in sincere sympathy to our fellow student, Elaine Stephens in the loss of her dear mother. This we count as life's greatest loss and we extend our heartfelt love. May she find comfort in knowing that she been blessed in having had such a mother. Ogden High School Notes June 3, 1931 We dare say students know exactly what the position of scrapbook editor demands. Just this collecting from each evening's paper the O. H. S. Notes and other artides of interest to our school, pictures of our various teams, etc., dance programs—in fact, anything I that might be worth keeping, and pasting them in the O. H. S. scrapbook. Though this is a fascinating) I bit of work it requires a lot or patience and effort. Ruth Ames, the editor this year, has carried out her position very nicely and has produced a very neat and interesting book. Hats off to Ruth! This isn't the only thing she's done commendably well! FORUM BANQUET. On Memorial day the Forum club celebrated its tenth year of exist¬ence. The club was established in the high school in 1921. The mem¬bers of this select group enjoyed an entire day in South Fork canyon and Ogden valley playing tennis and swimming in Patio Springs. After this pleasant outing they re-turned to the Bigelow Hotel and leas ted at their tenth annual bannet. The junior debaters were eeply impressed by the sincerity of the organiization. Alumni as old as the club itself were in attendance and the presence of graduates of various years showed the tremen¬dous growth of the debating club. I Letters from members at distant points were read with much reminlscence and toasts of excellent quality demonstrated the sentiments of the oldest and one of the most I progressive clubs in high school.

Last but far from least was the girls' assembly Tuesday morning. After a piano solo from Beulah Romans our officers, Helen Van Buren, Nora Hawkins, and Julia Cane gave us their best wishes and introduced the officers for next year, Ruth Hawkins, Mary Walker and Holley Arthur. Mrs Irwin complimented the seniors on their attainments of the school girls' standards, health, friendship, loyalty and scholarship, and advised the juniors to carry on. She asked them to reach out ror tne coming juniors and help them to follow the girls' code. Miss Schofield's message was to play our part even if it is a small The girls' trio gave two beautiful songs, Julia made a financial re¬port, (we have money in the treas¬ury), Arleen Sessions sang two solos beautifully, and Ellen Halgren gave a clever reading. We have all enjoyed the associa¬tes year. We owe a great deal to it and its officers and advisors, Mrs. Irwin and Miss Schofield, for our success. It has made school life more happy; it has helped us all. We seniors leave our best wishes for a successful association next year. GET YOUR TICKETS. Each graduating student is en¬titled to three tickets admitting tc graduating exreises. There are eight students who have not yet secured their tickets. Please call at office and get them. SUCCESS IN MUSIC. Honors upon honors have been stacked on our boys' Two-O'club. They, especially Mr. Hansen, an' worthy of praise. But the girls' glee club is alsc .doing big things. We didn't win anj ] first places, but we feel we havt also made some progress. The girls have learned to enjoj good music, to sing good music, anc band together to help make a single unit— a good chorus. We have' learned to soften our voices, to listen and to follow our instructor, Mr. Hansen. .. We hope next year's glee clubs swill take big steps and progress rapidly toward success. —Owl. CARPE DIEM. There comes a certain period, to¬ward the close of every school year, when each and every junior ex-periences that inexpressible feeling of regret upon seeing his senior! chums and classmates preparing to leave him and the school which they have attended together throughout a prolonged period of activity and cherished memories—many of them to accept positions in various lo¬calities, a number to look to a course at some college or university, while others, possibly, anticipate a trip abroad. It is then that we juniors, many of us for the first time, real¬ize what an inestimable part the seniors have played throughout our years at high school. Always, they have been just a step in front of us, receiving and breaking the respon¬sibilities for us. We have ever look- led to you with admiration, seniors, [and now—now that we are about to be thrown upon our own resources, the greater role which you have played is clear to us. And so it is with you, senior mem¬bers of Carpe Diem. That "certain period" has arrived, and we are about to say good-bye to you. Glum¬ly and with every affection, we shall watch you pass out of our lives. In closing, may we wish you every suc¬cess and unbounded joy in your new world of activity, and as another school year is brought to a close may we have merited that same "in¬expressible feeling of regret" on the part of our junior associates upon our leaving, that has been so genu¬inely expressed in your behalf this year. Officers of Carpe Diem for next year follow: "President, Elaine Evans; vice president, Holley Arthur; secretary, Katherine Heiner; reporter, Helen Tanner. —Helen Tanner. ABOUND THE WORLD. And into many lands we traveled. We stood (and sat) amazed—for every land we visited entertained us with a typical dance. We visited Greece, Holland, Scot¬land, Ireland, and some cold icy land. Then We came home and we were shown not only a regular Amer¬ican dance but the old Minuete and a balloon dance. And—oh—the fashions. We didn't need to travel to view the dainty afternoon frocks, tne graceful formals, and the crisp, clever sport suits. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves when we viewed the an¬nual fashion show in our auditorium Friday evening. We owe a great deal of our pleas¬ure to Miss Corliss and Miss Scho¬field. Thanks for the trip; we've waited a long time to travel around the world, even in a dream. Ogden High School Notes TIME TO SAY GOODBYE There always comes a moment of farewell—a sad one, of course. They are sad because you are leaving someone or something to which you have grown attached and really be¬come a part of. So it is with the staff as the time comes to leave for good the O. H. S. Notes column. Students and classmates, it has been a sincere pleasure to write the daily news for your benefit and we only hope you have enjoyed reading them just half as much as we have en¬joyed writing them. At times it has seemed difficult to do, but the pleas¬ant times we have had in doing them have far outnumbered the times of difficulty. We have always found Mrs. Irwin and Mr. Merrill willing to assist at any time. There are many other faculty members and students who have lent a help¬ing hand and we sincerely appre¬ciate the splendid co-operation of each and every one of them. As we turn the Notes column over to next year's staff we ask them to accept our heartiest wishes for a successful year. May they get the same keen enjoyment out of their task as! we have this year. We extend to! you all our best wishes for an en¬joyable vacation! Goodbye.—Ruth Greaves and Staff. AU REVOIR It is truly a sad occasion to write a farewell to our alma mater, be¬cause school possesses the fond memories of progress. During this year the Notes have striven to typi¬fy the scholastic activity of the most successful year high school has ever experienced. The reason for that success is the attitude of the students and teachers toward work. Co-operation in all extra curricular activity has been evident, and the Notes commend high school's ability. We sincerely desire ito see our attainment emulated by our successors and congratulate them upon their excellent start. They haye judgment that will win and we wish them the best. In regard to the editor of the Notes, I congratulate myself on be¬ing able to praise Ruth Greaves as a most capable, and untiring genius. She has been responsible for the success of our Notes and I regret that I must discontinue my work with her. I have enjoyed the task of discharging my obligation as an associate editor. I wish next year's Notes the same pleasure and bid everyone "au revoir."—John Cawley. TO OUR PARTING SENIORS This morning three hundred and seventy-seven of you left the protectorship of our school, but don't feel that the school shall forget you or your accomplishments. You are not only the largest class but a class to be proud of. Your high school days are over and you now face the world. Lift up your faces—face the world fair¬ly and squarely, and be as success¬ful as you have been this year. To the seniors of next year— Follow the footsteps of your predecesosors and attempt to im¬prove the school—above all, be loy¬al.—Elma Skelton. MEET THE STAFF! Some of you may not be sure yet as to who have written in the Notes under assumed names, so we are going to introduce you to them. Re¬member the snappy athletic reports, debate news, and many other clever articles that have been signed j "Snoopy"? They were written by none other than Andy—the only Andy. The numerous articles of in¬teresting red-hot news written by Elma Skelton were signed either "Spy" or "Owl." Didn't you enjoy them? And "Frisby"—Ah, "Frisby" wrote the assembly reports and kept you informed as to the progress of the R. O .T. C. Handsome John Cawley was "Frisby." And (ahem!) the notes that were unsigned were written by the editor-in-chief, Ruth Greaves. Now we have a surprise for you— we are going to introduce another staff. This one is the new staff for the coming year. Out of a large field of competitive candidates, Elpha Morse, Bob Hetzel and Vir-ginia Hunter were chosen as the staff. It will not be decided until next year just which one will be editor, but whichever one it is will have two splendid associate edit¬ors. Congratulations! Here's to bigger and better Notes for next year and may you always find the little orange note box at your ser-vice.—Ruth Greaves. GOODBYE—GOOD LUCK This is the time when everyone is writing nice things to everyone else. We want to write something nice, too, but words fail us. We only hope that you have all enjoyed the Notes this year. We have tried to portray our school activities in an interesting way. If we have failed—well—we tried to do our best. We shall never forget the thrill, the happy times we had trying to write the Notes. With Mrs. Irwin and Mr. Merrill to cheer us on, it has certainly been a pleasure. We give next year's staff our sin¬cere wishes for a successful column, Goodbye, seniors, good luck in life. Happy vacation and a suc¬cessful senior year.—Elma Skelton. FINAL ASSEMBLY It was a thrilling and impressive assembly—this last assembly. For the first time in the history of our school the junior members took oath of office in a formal inaugural as¬sembly. After we sang "The Star-Spangled Banner," each officer assumed his; office in a dignified manner. The assembly was pleasingly opened with a dramatic reading by Kate Heiner and Dad sang his "swan song." Dad, who has faced' the world with a cheerful smile, with a will to do, wished us the best of luck in our lives. Mr. Merrill, in his own way, thanked Dad for his service and for his loyalty. He praised Dad high¬ly—paid him a tribute we all echo— not only for Dad but for our prin¬cipal. "When You Come to the End of a Perfect Day," sung by Doris Wangsgard and accompanied by Audrey Clayton on the violin and Mr. Hansen at the piano, made us all realize what it means—the end of a perfect year. Last but not least our president, Roland, wished us all the best of luck, thanked the student body and the faculty and expressed his regret at leaving our Alma Mater. No one shall ever forget our last assembly.—Owl. SO LONG Well, students, I've pulled so many gags this year that I think I'll re¬frain. I've certainly enjoyed trying to get you to sit in one place! School has meant so much to every¬one that I can't begin to express in words the sentiments that we all feel at leaving this beloved institu¬tion. Please, gang, stay behind that school no matter what happens or where you will ever be! Remember that this is your alma mater and that it will be just as proper for you to root for it in life as it was when you gave Ah-Ah-E-O— Come back and see it sometime. It's always; ready to welcome you. To the juniors—take the freshies next year for all the rides that your hearts desire, but remember that you have a "rep" to uphold. We are bet¬ting on you to make the next year just as big a success as this year has been. By the way, if you can't think of anything to do during the summer, write up a couple of notes and drop! them in the box next year. Oh,: where have I heard that expression before? Have the best of vacations and the best of life. Until the Moths Bawl.—Andy (On My Lap) Brunetti. P. S.—Maybe you want to know how I get this way. Well, it's the privilege of anyone who was on the Notes staff—oh, yes, I handed in a coupla articles. DEDICATION To all the nuts and dumbbells like ourselves—the Notes do hereby dedicate this last will and testa-ment: To Earl Greaves we leave a book, "Now In My Opinion," to be used only when his own practically inex-haustible supply runs out. To Russ Stone we leave Mr. Corry's personal essay on "How to Get Away With It." To Elaine Evans we leave Doro¬thy Dix's own book, "Why I Am a Success," to be mastered in three short sittings. |
