Per-haps that needs an explanation to Mr. Merrill and Mrs. Irwin, but we are sure they won't object because neither of them sweep floors and fire furnaces, at least at school. If the debris that is left on the floors after a strenuous day of mental la¬bor weren't swept each night we'll wager that in a week you could not swim the halls. Our janitors are affectionately known as "Harry and Frank." They are not only janitors, but informa¬tion bureaus and lost and found de¬partments. It is in your power to aid them and keep the halls and classrooms cleaner if you will just throw all papers In the waste baskets and not on the floors. A. D. M. With such capable officers as Neoma Teuscher, Eva Grover and Louisa Allen, A. D. M. is sure to reach the top of the ladder. Just" leave it to them to show us how to have a good time, and they start out first thing with a big party for the alumni, which they have planned for the near future. Club uniforms have been dis- cussed and soon you will see what good judgment the members have on dress. Listen, friends, A. D. M. has the .best secret in the world. Of course we can't tell you about it now but just watch the notes and soon you'll read some news that will rnafcie every student want to become a member. Watch. KATHLEEN LAURIE, Reporter. NONSENSE Washington may have crossed the Delaware, but what of the ju¬niors that crossed the threshold into the hands of the enemy? All those being tardy in Ernie Wangsgard's seventh period study, are requested to stay for tea after school (they must furnish the tea). It might seem peculiar that the girls in law class are the most in-terested when discussing marriage, but after a little thought it seems natural. About this water fight, the se¬niors think the juniors all wet, but don't you think a drenching will take it out of them? Let's show "em, juniors. SID GORDON.

The minutes were read and approved and the dues were collected from delinquent members. Our discussions that were given; during the old and new business headings were very excellent de-bates. We had our own ideas and expressed them to suit ourselves. Bob Rushmer gave us a very in¬teresting talk on the things he saw pertaining to navigation on his trip through Europe. We all learned something from Bob's interesting re¬port. The S. O. S. club was started last year, to study navigation in all of its phases. We senior members have learned many different and unique things since 1930. The members in our club have had many interesting topics given to them and we have studied and learned and now we have progressed : very far into our study. —Arthur Cartright, Reporter.

A momentum is what you give a person when you are leaving. Contralto is a low sort of music that only ladies sing. In Christianity a man can only have one wife. This is called mo¬notony. Launcelot arrived at a castle where he asked if he could be put up with for the night. The letter M. D. signify "mentally deficient." Chivalry is the attitude of a man toward a strange woman. . A monolog is a conversation be¬tween two people, such as husband, and wife. Sept. 30, 1931 news Editors: Bob Hetzel, Elpha Morse, Virginia Hunter. THE TIME TO BUILD Most Ogden people have heard during the past fifteen years that Ogden needs a new high school. It is, and in fact has been Ogden's most urgent need during the past! ten years. As a matter of fact Og-den has no high school in the ac¬cepted use of the term. In the old days a high school was an insti¬tution that gave four full years of instruction. Later, with the intro¬duction of the junior-senior plan of high schools, the senior high school was scheduled to give three-year courses. Ogden continued to give the four-year course until crowded conditions necessitated the removal of the ninth grade. Six years ago the crowded condition necessitated also the removal of the tenth grade to junior high schools, so that for several years past, there have been but two grades, the eleventh and the twelfth, at the high school. We humbly suggest, therefore, that this is a most appropriate time to begin the erection of that new high school. Material was never so cheap, j Bricklayers, carpenters, artisans of all kinds are out of employment, and would be glad to work at wages 25 per cent lower than during other years. Why not relieve unemploy¬ment? Especially as the people are asked to contribute $150,000 now, why not use this fund in giving em¬ployment in the building of a new high school? Think it over, gentle¬men! JUNIORS ATTENTION! Can't you hear Mr. Opportunity knocking on your door? Come out and meet the world in combat he is telling you. Are you going to hide inside and shun opportunity? Well, then, Juniors, come up to room 303 tomorrow at 3:30 p. m. sharp and meet Mr. Opportunity. We want some go-getting boys and girls to try out for the position of business manager of our noted Quarterly Classicum.—Meyer Lutzker. CHATTER AND CHAFF Lady—Have you ever been offered work? Norm Dockum—Only once, mad¬am. Aside from that I have met with nothing but kindness. Elaine Stevens—A bandit jumped on the running board of my machine last night and demanded five dollars. Gerry—Why didn't you have him arrested for impersonating an of¬ficer. Philosophy in a nutshell—A man may put all his savings under his pillow every night, but that doesn't mean that he has money enough to retire on. Edgar says—Wear a Sam Brown and beat 'em off with clubs. OCTOBER REMEDIES Do you want to meet a certain blond, brunette or red head? If you do I'll be seeing you at the dance October 2.
