She spoke of the origin of the girl scouts movement in America. Its purpose is to produce real women ana strong leaders with character, tlthouch often, she added humor¬ously, pirl scouting is thought to be synonymous to hiking. Character composed of honesty, loyalty and such qualities she defined as being the one requisite for success. Then she described the canoe trips that the scouts take in the north, tbe semi-exploring trips in the south, and of the fun in scouting in any part of the country. Lastly, she left a i;arting wish—that a girl scout club bo organized in Ogden high. CONGRATULATIONS Word has just been received from Stanford university that Preston Mulkahy, an O. H.

Juniors! How does the position of Associate Business Manager of the Year-book appeal to you? If you are interested please notify Mr. Kasius in room 304. R. O. T. C. After a week of training in the preliminaries of being a good rifle shot by the whole cadet corps, about 75 cadets reported Monday after¬noon for tryouts for the rifle team. These have been going through a series of exercises designed to increase their accuracy in shooting, including the co-ordination of the finger muscles and the eye. Actual firing for the elimination of the poorer shots will begin Monday with about twenty of the best being se¬lected to represent the school dur¬ing the coming indoor season. Last year the O. H. S. team came in third by 12 points with 5576 out of the possible 6000 points tried for by the 46 schools in the Ninth corps area. We placed twelfth in the na¬tional match of junior units repre-sented by several hundred schools. While we have six old members of the team back, the material is none too promising but it is expected that the team will do some better work than last year. The mainstays of the team will likely be Bob Bader, Wayne Harbertson and Jim Gibson. Company drill has been the sched¬ule for the past week. All com¬panies showed marked, improvement in carrying of rifles, holding lines, etc., but when the competition was held Friday, companies A and Cj tied for first place followed by com¬pany D. The commander of com¬pany A is Joe Fowler, while Dee Wangsgard commands company C. This week, weather permitting, we will have practice Tuesday for Arm¬istice day parade of Wednesday, the rest of the week being given to squad drill. The following week a squad competition will be held and then musketry or the science of teamwork in application of small arms fire will be taken up. In the event of bad weather, lectures will be given on musketry and map read¬ing. In the competition for the legion cup for November, company D, which also leads in October, is first to date: Percentages: Company D, 98.02; company C, 97.69; company A, 97.44; band, 97.43; company B, 96.89. HOLIDAY Probably we should break the glad news to you in a very gentle manner, but we aren't going to. Stand by, please. We get a holi¬day Wednesday. If you will please stop that noisy cheering, we shall explain it all. As you probably have heard, thirteen years ago America and those other countries that seemed to be having a slight disagreement about some subject, as yet vague to most of us, declared armistice. In commemoration of this aforementioned subject, the school board is declaring armistice with jus, and is giving us a nice whole day in which to do anything, or probably nothing, as you please. MR. STEWART'S EXHIBIT In Mrs. Irwin's room, room 202, there is a very excellent display of oil paintings by Mr. Stewart, and they are worthy of your attention, and everyone should go in and see them. These pictures vry in scenes from winter to summer. All' the mothers that attended the mothers' tea saw this exhibit and enjoyed it very much. The exhibit will be open to the public, afternoons during the week, and all interested are welcome.
