5-7-26 OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES It takes two people to bring up a child. A father is really an admirable person to be a par¬ent. He has the freshness of approach of one who is not around all the time, and he is supposed to have a larger outlook which is so essential to broaden¬ing the lives of oncoming chil¬dren. But too often he is a con-sulting rather than a practicing parent. He either skids or skidoos. He makes it his consci¬entious business to give his fam¬ily money and everything they need, except himself.—Dr. Wm. B. Forbush. ERRATA Tuesday's notes gave Friday, May 14, as parents' day. This, of course, should have read Friday, May 21. May 14 is "U" day. The menu the other day called for veal birds. This was errone¬ously given as veal buds; but whether "buds" or "birds," it doesn't matter much; they were surely good. ANOTHER LUNCHEON Now, we shall get Wednesady's menu straight. Swiss steak. Mashed potatoes. Cream corn. Spring salad. Parker House rolls. Three-of-a-kind sherbet. Gold cake. The host, Lucille Bingham; hostess, Virginia McEntire; guests, Mrs. Camp, Misses Chesney, Bowman, Hubbard, Milne, Peck; Messrs. Coray, D. H. Nel¬son, Wahlquist, PROGRAM OF MERIT A musical program of unusual merit was given by the B. Y. U. public service department at the high school Wednesday. Bass solos were given by Le Grand Anderson; violin solos, Norma Jensen; whistling solos, Elton Summers; whistling and violin duet, Mr. Summers and Miss Jensen; readings, Maggie Barton; soprano solos, Miss Rhoda Johnson; accompanist, Lorin Ricks. The program was arranged by Raymond Holbrook, manager of the group. This pro¬gram was the most varied, artis¬tic, enjoyable of the entire school year. ART EXHIBIT Ararngements have been com¬pleted for the exhibit of a num¬ber of Mr. Stewart's paintings. These will be exhibited in Room 202 (Mrs. Ewing's), next to the office, all next week, including Friday, parents' day. The work of the students in art will also be exhibited next week in the art room, 220. BAND AT WEBER Hy Lammers' wonderful band gave a concert at Weber college during the usual practice hour, 8:30 to 9:30 o'clock Wednesday. The early classes were dismissed for the period and the entire stu¬dent body attended the concert. The faculty and students are pro¬fuse in their praise of this fine organization. SCHOOL PROMOTIONS The principals of the city schools did a good piece of work Wednesday in deciding to make all promotions provisional. The proviso is that the promotion is valid only if presented within two weeks of the opening of school in September. This is in harmony with other school sys¬tems which have printed on their promotion cards, "Not valid un¬less presented within ten days after the opening of school." It is unreasonable to suppose that child can enter school three, four five or six weeks late, and the same sort of work done students wrho enter on the opei ing day. SCHOOL CALENDAR A provisional calendar for next year's work submitted by Supt. W. K. Hopkins Wednesday, calls for registration on September 10 and 11, regular class work Mon¬day, September 13. Christmas va¬cation will be from December 2 3, 1926, to January 3, 1927. The first semester will end January 21, 1927. The second semester will begin January 2 4 and will end May 27. Holidays will be: November 11, Armistice day; No¬vember 2 5-26, Thanksgiving re¬cess. May 6, Boys' Loyalty day and Junior High track meet. ENTERTAINMENTS "The Isle of Chance" will be presented by the students of the Lorin Farr school in the Weber college auditorium on Friday eve¬ning, May 14, at 8 o'clock. On the same evening the Wash¬ington Junior High will present an operetta, "El Bandido" (The Bandit), in the school auditorium. Officers of Ogden Red. Cross are distributing in the schools to¬day containers in which jellies are to be put up during the summer and returned to the organization next fall for the disabled veterans in United States hospitals. PRIZES RECEIVED The American Chemical society awards to Wilford Young and Glen Harding were received Wed¬nesday. One is a shining twenty- dollar gold piece, the other, two volumes of "Chemistry and In¬dustry." These- awards will be given out on award day. "A CHILD SHALL LEAD THEM" Francis P.- Graven, president of the American Chemical founda¬tion, has this to say on the preface page of ''Chemistry in In¬dustry": "Lister, to whom wTe owe so much, was one day operating on the elbow of a little child, who bravely and. splendidly bore the pain. When the doctors lifted her afterward, she dropped her doll, disconnecting it at the knee and letting the sawdust escape. The great Lister sat down, and with his needle sewred up the doll's knee and handed it to the pleased and relieved child. "Huxley urged the considera¬tion of the new-born in all the scientist did. Pasteur said that he had derived all his philosophy at the bedside ef his dying child. "Each one of these scientists was trying to express his working for the love of humanity, work¬ing for posterity. It meant that the scientist was working for chil¬dren and for the-children of chil¬ dren's children. It meant that the motto of his life was, And a little child shall lead them. That is what I want to propose as the purpose and ideal of American chemistry. "I congratulate the recipient of this book upon the splendid start on the career of a chemist. I commend to him these ideals of the great men who have gone be¬fore in this greatest of all sci¬ences. Signed) "FRANCIS P. GARVAN, . "President of the Chemical Foundation,"
