LEWIS CHRONICLE The Lewis Junior High has Just printed a very interesting paper for this week. Tne Lewis Chronicle brings to our attention the new su¬pervised study plan. The plan is veiy effective and teaches the stu-dent to apply his knowledge as well j as to know it. By this plan, the in¬dividual is taught rather than a class. ART EXHIBIT The exhibit of Mr. Stewart's works is open each noon. All, whether students or not, are invit¬ed to attend the exhibit. On Fri¬day, which was the first day of the exhibit, more than one hundred vis¬itors saw the works at noon, ac¬cording to Miss Margaret Mallory. Miss Mallory was formerly a teach¬er of Ogden High and will be in charge during the noon hours. This exhibit will be held for one week, and all who are interested In art are invited to attend. DO YOU KNOW? That the public school buildings of Ogden number fourteen, with a total valuation, including grounds, of approximately $1,500,000? That the graduates of Ogden High school maintain exceptional standing in the colleges of the country and hold enviable records in all worth while community move¬ments and achievements? That Ogden, in freedom from dis¬ease, is rated second in its class in the United States? That out of a total of 25 schools competing, the Ogden High school in its R. O. T. C. work has been4 designated an honor school during the past five years, receiving first place in 1928. and third place in 1927 and 1929? ASSEMBLY The assembly which preceded the mothers' tea was a huge success. It was in charge of Ada Sailor, presi¬dent of the Girls' association. Mrs. Irwin, dean of the girls, then gave a word ox greeting to the mothers. The first number on the program Was given by the orchestra. A reading, "Bobbie Shaftoe," was given by Marjorie Anderson. "Ghost Story," another reading, was given by Andrew Brunnetti. "Morning," was sung by the Girls' Glee club. Janet Manning gave a reading, "The Fall of George Bassett." The mu-sical numbers on the program were under the direction of Mr. Hansen. 1 After the assembly the mothers viewed the art exhibit and then en¬joyed the delicious refreshments which were served in the rest room. It was very pleasing to note nearly 200 mothers present and it is also pleasing to know that the number was much greater than last year.

IGNORANCE EXPENSIVE "Education is responsible for the solution of nine-tenths of all our, problems. Education costs much but is worth it. Ignorance costs more and is worth nothing.—Sam D. Baker, former governor of Missouri. COST OF EDUCATION j We spend annually about two and a quarter billion of dollars for education — elementary, secondary and collegiate. This seems a large sum, indeed, but wnen we consider that the nation's annual income is more than eighty-five billion dollars this doesn't seem a disproportionate amount. It is in fact considerably less than three per cent of our in- j come. !

"If you are compelled to mouth over your favors to a friend, the fa¬vors are of small size, else you are- a small man." OUR ART COLLECTION Le Conte Stewart will be the first a artist taken up in the history of the f Ogden senior high school art col¬lection. We think Mr. Stewart mer- 1 its this place because he is, at present, an instructor of our stu- I dants and citizens of Ogden in art. Mr. Stewart has a beautiful exhibit j on at present 4n Mrs. Irwin's room and it is attracting a great deal of1 f interest. Le Conte Stewart was born in 4 southern Utah. He studied in the ( public schools of Utah, the high; j schools of Idaho and in the Uni¬versity of Utah. He worked here , with Wright and Evafas until he went to the east. In New York he studied in the art students' league t with Ernest Blumanschein, Edward Dufner, Thomas Fogarty and F. V. Dumond. His first commission was the painting of mural decorations ir the Hawaiian temple of the L. D. S church. Later he did the same sorl of work in the L. D. S. temple ir Canada. He has studied landscap with John Carlson, Walter Golt? and Daniel Garber. He has twice exhibited with the western artists in the association western museums. Mr. Stewart is primarily interested in the interpretation of western landscape especially the. desert. Two of Mr. Stewart's paintings, "At the Edge of the Creek," and "Pelican ! Point;" are receiving a great deal ; of attention in the present exhibit. PARENTS! Parents are urged to attend the first meeting of the Parent-Teach¬ers' association. W. A. Budge who was elected president last year, has set the first meeting for tomorrow at 7:30 in the Ogden high school auditorium. Parents, make the first meeting one hundred per cent in attendance. The association needs you, and you need the association. Remember, one hundred per cent. DRAMATIC ART Andreu Brunetti and Dorothy Wintle gave some very pleasing readings before the students of the state industrial school last week.

Hub—Hugh Ford. Julia—Dorothy Watts. Wallie—Enoch Thorne. Magpie—Andrew Brunetti, Dee Bramwell. We all agree that we have an ef¬ficient cast, and we expect a great deal from them. A FORMER TEACHER Attorney and Mrs. Samuel Blackham are rejoicing over the recent arrival of a -pound baby girl at the Dee hospital. Mrs. Blackham was physical education instructor for the girls last year and taught at Ogden high before her marriage. She was then Miss Grace Stone. OUR LIBRARY Debating is always popular in history, school clubs, and our little social clubs as well. It is always well for the debater to known where to obtain information on his sub¬ject, and the Ogden high library offers a variety of selections. We have for the debater: "Reference Shelf." A series of lit- j tie books on timely topics issued at! irregular intervals. T hey contain j a brief for each side and articles ' about the subject. "Deboler's Handbook Series." "University Debater's Annual." "Debater's Digest" and "Student's Service," two little pamphlets issued monthly.

The last game of this season is to be played with Weber County High school on Armistice day. The game begins at 2:30 p. m. It is one of the most important games of the season. The game, which is being sponsored by the American Legion, will start as soon as their parade is over. A large crowd is expected out at this game. We can swell the number by giving our support. Let's back our team up to the greatest extent we can. Are we going? Yes. DOMESTIC ART. Miss Corless has received a let¬ter inviting all students in the in¬terior decoration department to go through a model home, 1371 Marilyn drive. An interior decorator will be glad to explain the styles, color combination, etc. He will do this any time between the hours of 9 a. m. and 3 p. m. The home is open to the public from 3 p. m. to 9 p. m. This gives us all a chance to go. THE LIBRARY. In looking through the library we find a complete set of O. Henry's short stories. We also find a com-plete set of short stories by Mark Twain. Both these writers are very popular. We find in these books the lure of olden times, the reality of modern fiction, the glamor of wealth, the hopelessness of toil and the hearts of human nature. A larger and better assortment of short stories cannot be found. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF— There was no noise in the halls at noon. The janitors could find no waste paper on the floor of the gymnas¬ium. Everyone was always prepared in Mr. Peterson's third period history class. JOIE FRANCAISE. The meeting was called to order by our worthy president, Dorothy Stitzer. We had the pleasure of having, as our guest, the alumna president, Maxiam Hyde. We discussed our initiation party which was held last Saturday eve- ning. Was it a success? And How! Norma Marriott then gave an in¬teresting report on a French novel¬ist. The meeting was then adjourn-ed.—Rachel Medoway. CONGRESS. Monday evening we had with us four peppy juniors, and could they debate! The affirmative of the sub¬ject, "Resolved: That the United States should adopt state censor¬ship for motion picture shows," was upheld by Nathalie Layton and Marion Ensign. Ruth Ames and Dorothy Nelson defended the negative. On a mo¬tion no decision was given. Ruth Ames and Dorothy Nelson, defended the negative. On a mo¬tion no decision was given. Girls, our membership will soon be filled so if you're interested please hurry before it's too late! , —Maurine Israelson. j THRIFT REPORT. O. H. S. is still climbing. On Tuesday we reached the high aver¬age of 49 per cent depositors in school savings. This is the highest point the school has ever reached. Three rooms reported 100 per cent. The lowest for any group was 7 per cent. SPECIAL ASSEMBLY. A special assembly was being held today at 12:45. Alva Scoville was be the speaker. The school orchestra was to fur¬nish music. PARENT-TEACHERS. Tonight at 7:30 o'clock all patrons of the high school are to meet in the school assembly to organize an Ogden High Parent-Teacher asso¬ciation. We think this an excellent move as it is absolutel yneeessary for parents and teachers to co-oper- ate and work together in the great task of secondary education. "THE POOR NUT." It is not at all unlikely that the 1 school play, "The Poor Nut" will be presented this year in the new South Washington auditorium. This is the largest auditorium in the Ogden city schools, and if every-thing can be got in readiness it is thought that this is the most ac¬ceptable place for the play presen-tation. Nov. 7-1929 Ogden High School News (Lucille Somers, Editor Pro-tem.) "Inspiration is 90 per cent per¬spiration and 10 per cent genius."— Edison. R. O. T. C. The following appointments are announced in the Reserve Officers' Training corps, Ogden Senior High school, effective November 5: Band: Captain, Dale Read; first j lieutenants, Hugh Ford, Glen Marston, Wendell Shurtleff, LeRoy Olson; second lieutenants, Lester Bell, Lamar Braun, Billy Eccles, Burke Fry, Jack Holden, Lynwood Islaub, Grant Morse, John Pack, Walter Richards.

Those chosen were Herbert Stewart, Derald Stone, Rowland Coray, Ada Sai¬lor, Henry Aiken and Ben Cartwright. Council members are given the privilege to ask any person who is disturbing the assembly to leave. SPECIAL ASSEMBLY A special assembly was held Wed¬nesday at 12:45. A. L. Scoville was the speaker and we enjoyed his talk very much. Miss Stohl announced the final cast for "The Poor Nut," our school play. Frank Grasteit gave two pleasing vocal solos, Old Black Joe and I Love You Truly, ac-companied by Mr. Hansen. The Girls' Glee club gave a very pleas¬ing number, "Morning." THRIFT Our percentage in banking Is gradually increasing. We rated 49 per cent Tuesday. Room 306B, 220, and 205 are certainly doing their share to bring the percentage high¬er. These three rooms were 100 per cent. We need more like them. Remember, it is not the amount banked, but the number banking that brings the rate higher. ART COLLECTION Donald Beauregard is another of our Utah artists represented in our collection. Mr. Beauregard was born in Fillmore, Utah, in 1836, of Da¬nish and English parentage. As a boy he had a roving, wandering spirit and when 12 years of age he ran away from home, going with an old trapper through Yellowstone, sketching and exploring. After this trip he met a gentleman who can¬vassed the west, enlarging photo¬graphs and he spent some, time traveling about with him. Beaure¬gard went to Europe twice to study; the first time he spent in painting portraits and landscape; the second time he was sent by Edgar S. Hewett to learn what he could of Fran¬ciscan monks and the life of St. Francis of Assisi for a series of mu¬ral decorations he had been com¬missioned to paint for the capitol building at Santa Fe, New Mexico i Shortly after he had returned from this trip and had begun his first drawings for the paintings, Beauregard was taken ill and died. This was in 1914, when Beauregard was only 29 years of age. The exposi¬tion of San Diego opened shortly af¬ter his death, reserved a room for Beauregard's paintings. This exhibi¬tion is now to be found in the cap¬itol building at Santa Fe. Con¬sidering his extreme youth, Beaure¬gard showed great power, and It is just to say that he would some day have played a very important part in American art. The school has seven of Beaure¬gard's paintings, one, The Aspen Grove, presented by the Child Cul¬ture club. Others purchased by the board of education are: The Return, The Coming Storm, The Mountain Cascade, The Mountain Meadow, The Return by Moonlight, and The Desert Encampment. Clues! Fires! Lilies! What's it! all about? It's the talk of the i school and, oh, what can it be about? Now we can tell you It's all about Phi Lambda Tau's big party. We needn't tell you that it was a success, because you already know that, but we will tell you that everything Phi Lambda does is just j as great a success. Watch us from; now on.—Pat Fredrickson. OUR HERITAGE Our rich heritage, the product of I ages of toil, of industry, of experi- j ment and discovery, was the theme! of Mr. Scoville's address on Wed¬nesday. He illustrated his lecture throughout by referring to the de¬velopment of graphic art. He warn¬ed students against the "Niagara" of cheap, pernicious literature which ' floods the world and urged that they select the beautiful, the permanent and the good. , Mr. Scoville's apt use of English, j ' his versatility, and his most whole- t some outlook upon the world, char- j acterize him as an earnest student jj and a sane philosopher. His very . presence was an inspiration, and we . left the assembly more appreciative , of life and its bounteous offerings. EDUCATION WEEK : The week beginning Monday, November 11, is Education week. Mon¬day is Patriotism day, so we shall observe it as a holiday, with our thoughts turned back to that memorable Armistice day which we hope marked the end of war, and for-
