Stellae is enhanced by continued triumphs of this club in all kinds of club rivalry. Leaders of all forms of school activities are listed upon its roil and the talent is all blended into one snappy organization. Where other clubs are breaking up for lack of enthusiasm, the Stellae is bubbling over with spirit and is at the height of its popularity. Such splendid results must have a reason. Stellae has spirit. —Bill Stratford. FLASHES FROM THE PRESS. All the constitution guarantees is the pursuit of happiness. You have to catch up with it yourself. —Detroit News. Signals help. When the driver in front holds out his hand, you know he is going to do one of three things. —The Vindicator. Science has advanced to the point where they can find a chip of an ancient animal's toe joint and tell how old its mother-in-law was. —New York American. People wouldn't get divorced for such trivial reasons if they didn't get married for such trivial reasons. —Bridgeport Star. Too much of the world is run on the theory that you don't need road manners if you are a five-ton truck. —El Paso Herald. A pedestrian has rights—yes. But too often they are only the last sad rites. —Tampa Tribune. Boys will be boys—but the girls are giving 'em a hot contest for the privilege. —Arkansas Gazette. THE BAND TO GO. Every day the prospects get brighter for the band to go to Gary. As was announced in one of the luncheon clubs last week the giving of concerts will not make the trip possible, but the hearty co-operation of the people of Ogden will make it possible. Fred M. Nye started the thing when he said the other night: "I'll pay the expenses of one boy." There are, we are sure fully fifty people in Ogden, who, like Fred Nye, will send a boy and the thing is accomplished. Offers have already come that will take care of from 12 to 15 boys and we feel confident that many other good offers will come. CONCERT WEDNESDAY. The band will give a concert again Wednesday night in order to let the people Know Just what sort of a musical organization we have. Those who heard it last week were not only pleased, they were surprised, delighter, enthused. Everyone is a booster and all who hears it Wednesday night will likewise become a booster. A special invitation is extended to all members of clubs, organizations, business men who are working for a bigger," better Ogden. The R. O. T. C. band is one of Ogden's big assets and as soon as people realize it they will be eager to have the band represent us in the national contest. March 30 OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES COLORADO SCHOLARSHIP The Colorado School of Mines offers a scholarship to a Utah student that exempts the student from all laboratory and tuition fees during the four years at college. Any engineering student that would be interested in this scholarship should confer with Principal Merrill. KENTUCKY TODAY. The O.H.S. basketball team plays the Kentucky team today at 6 o’clock. Owing to difference in time Ogden should be able to hear the results about that hour. THE CHEATED CHILD. Statistics show that of 82 per cent of children born with chance to be vigorous men and women, only 17 per cent grow up without a handicap; 65 per cent are cheated by life. The old countries pay physicians to keep folks well, not just to fix them up a bit when conditions demand that the doctor be called in. Why doesn't America inaugurate the wise plan of everybody helping to keep youth well, strong and vigorous? GOOD NEWS. Word has reached high school that Herbert Adams, '22, has received cash prize scholarships at the close of both the autumn and the winter quarters at Harvard. Herb is very much delighted with Harvard and likes the culture and general atmosphere at Harvard. In a letter to a teacher from Lieut. Harry Lyon, U. S. navy, it is learned that Harry is having a wondrously good time on his good ship California off the coast of Panama. MORE CONTESTS. Opportunity has been given Ogden High school students to enter a national examination contest on the subject of "The World League of Peace." The prize offered in the contest is a trip to Europe. As many of our students have studied great civic and political problems during their high school career, it would seem that some of them would do well to enter the contest. INDIVIDUALITY CLIPPED. Miss Reva Beck has finally succumbed to the bobbed hair craze. The high school still boasts of a woman teachers' quartet that have not yielded to fashion's demand on the short hair question. By the way, have you heard that barber shops are no longer known by the old name. They are now called “bobbed” shops. WEDNESDAY'S CONCERT. The famous R. O. T. C. band will be heard in concert again Wednesday night at the high school. This concert is offered primarily for the men and women in Ogden's many civic, social and luncheon clubs who have not heretofore had the pleasure of hearing the band—or those who like it so well that they wish to hear it again. While offered especially to these, everybody will be welcome. We anticipate having a packed house. OGDEN WINS PRIZES. Ogden again pulls down two state prizes in the national American chemical essay contest. Wilford S. Young won first prize on his essay, "Agriculture." Glen. Harding won second place prize with his essay on "Health and Disease." In the state there were five first place essays, and seven second place essays. The first place essays will be forwarded to compete in the national contest. The committee wrote to Dr. George Thomas, state chairman: "We are delighted with the progress the contest is making in Utah. You will be interested to know that, with the exception of Nevada, Utah submitted more essays in proportion to the number of high schools than did any of the remaining states." ALUMNUS VISITS. Glen Stokes, '25, made the high school a visit Monday. Glen is working at home on the ranch in Bear Lake this year, and incidental studying law by correspondence. TYPING CHAMPION. George L. Hossfeld, world champion typist for 1918, 1920, 1921 and 1922, demonstrated on the Underwood typewriter Monday to students in the typewriting department. Mr. Hossfeld gave demonstrations of "warming up" drills, one minute tests of sentences and paragraphs and concentration tests when he answered questions, spelled words and worked problems in arithmetic while he was writing. Mr. Hossfeld's official record is 146 net words per minute for one hour. CONCENTRATION. While Ms. Hossfeld wrote the paragraph below Monday, he answered a difficult question, spelled three difficult words, and solved three problems in arithmetic: Of course there is one idea which underlies all that has been said on this subject and it is this, that not one of the men I have spoken of has really tried to tell us what he would do if he could go back to his youth and I suspect that not one of them would care to do so for if he did he would have to bring to light the things he wishes to remain hidden, but on the other hand each and all of them have set out to give good advice to the young, which is all right enough were it not that in the heart of the average boy there is that in the six letters of the word which seems to rouse up all his antagonism or if it does not do that he will allow it to pass in at one ear and— 151 words copied in one minute without error. TEACHERS INDISPOSED. Several of the teachers seemed indisposed today. An investigation revealed the cause. A 10-pound box of chocolates was consumed at Monday night's faculty meeting. This was presented by Sherman Barton in honor of his newly born daughter. TEACHERS WILL HELP. At faculty meeting Monday night the teachers expressed themselves as being partial to our band, and desirous of seeing it go to Chicago. They will add their mite to the fund to make the trip possible. HARDIN COLLEGE. We are asked by President Vaughan of Hardin college, Missouri, to call attention of the senior girls to the advantages of a private boarding college for girls. The Hardin college limits its enrollment to 200 and is well equipped. It is connected with the University of Chicago. 3-31-26 OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES "Teaching is a profession of the highest order. The professional doctor works to heal the body. The conscientious minister works to heal the soul. The professional teacher trains the child to keep body and soul well and just and clear."—Henry Peterson. ORAL SURGERY Dr. AV. S. Paine gave an interesting talk before the physiology classes Tuesday afternoon on the subject of oral surgery, illustrating the same with X-ray pictures of many deformities the oral surgeon meets in his practice. "Sinus infection, rheumatism, heart trouble and other ailments are attributed in large part to neglect of the teeth. One should have his teeth examined at least every six months in order to prevent the serious consequences following neglect. SENDS GREETINGS The Ogden Kiwanis club sent telegraphic greetings to the basketball boys at Chicago Tuesday afternoon and wished them good luck in their games. GIRLS' BASKETBALL Central and Senior High basketball girls gave a fine exhibition of fast play Tuesday afternoon in the high school gymnasium. The Central defeated Senior High by a score of 14 to 9. Another game is called for next week to be played at Central Junior. CONCERT TONIGHT We hope to see every man and woman interested in Ogden at the great R. O. T. C. concert tonight. We repeat again, that this band is right now one of Ogden's biggest assets and we do want everyone to know just how wonderfully these boys play and what a great credit their playing at Gary, Ind., in May would be to Ogden, to Utah and the entire west. Those who have heard them are converted and we only desire that all others shall hear them so that they too shall become converted. Remember, tonight, 8 o'clock, high school auditorium. YOUR OWN CASH The boy who earns his own cash, who makes his own way in life is the boy who will succeed best in the end." When you have touched bottom and there made up your mind what you are going to do and be—then if you've made up your mind right, and you're made of the right stuff—then that is the beginning of a new day for you." 'I have in my veins some of the blood of the Abraham Lincoln stock and when I heard people whispering that it's a pity I didn't die back there in the hills' or it's too bad the Lord didn't take him,' that blood was aroused and I was determined to live and to live the life of a free, independent, self-supporting American."— Corey Hanks. FORUM REPORT Did you ever try to speak extemporaneously on any subject? If you haven't, we doubt very I much whether you can or not. On Monday night, last, the Forum listened to one of the most interesting extemporaneous debates of the season, the question being, "Resolved, that the Junior High school students be permitted to take part in high school activities.' Hal Armstrong and Bill Gunnell handed Frank Rose and John Griffin a close defeat. On two weeks from last Monday night there promises to be one of our best debates, with Dave Camp and the "silver tongued" Grant Chandler challengers of Ken Skeen and Clifford- Fretwell, on the question, "Resolved, that compulsory military training be abolished from high schools." No doubt you all are interested. You are invited to hear the question settled intelligently.—Bill Gunnell. COUNCIL REPORT March 30. A brief meeting, was suggested on account of- various school activities. Discussion of the changes in the constitution will be held over until next meeting, when a larger atendance is present. Mrs. Irwin suggested that the school build a tennis court, and that the construction be started as soon as possible. Mr. Culley suggested that a committee be j appointed to take charge of the I construction. Mr. Armstrong was | appointed chairman of the committee. The motion was made and carried that the chairman appoint a committee to start the construction, which will be subject to the approval of Mr. Merrill. Robert Craven, Jay Glen and Kathaline Alsup were appointed to act upon the committee.—Herbert Verheek, secretary. HANKS' PRIZE Mr. Hanks says the most precious thing he has is his wondrous "Kentucky Belle," and he wanted to tell us all about her Tuesday, but as she sat directly behind him when he was addressing the students and threatened to murder him if he did not desist, he, like a good and obedient husband, restrained himself. Mrs. Hanks couldn't prevent, however, the students giving her the "once over," and a few were privileged to come in closer contact with her charming personality. Corey found this prize some three or four years ago, as superintendent of nurses in an Idaho hospital, and he says he has been a far richer and happier man for the finding.
