Wonder why? Ruwel Edear says the idea of creating the siime kind of vibrations around you as your own is a lot of bant He says he tried it on a certain sponsor Grade cards will be issued in an¬other couple of weeks. There ought to be a system where¬by the pirls would wear a sign pro- aUming whether they have a date tl the Thanksgiving dance or not. It would save a lot of breath on the part of us men. REPORTER AT LARGE. EXPLANATION MADE Dear Club Reporters: I have not been trying to make it ' hard for any club reporter; I ami : jtiying to make it easy. Also, I am I (not attacking any particular club I jreport, I am attacking the whole I ft is my belief that the condition is not the fault of either the club I importers or the clubs, but is due to an unfortunate tradition. I believe I (tfaKt we should break away from IJMl tradition. The Ogden High school Notes are for news and clever bits of writing; the club reports in I their present capacity are neither aevs nor clever. It would be im¬passible to make them so. Therefore, all you club reporters, why not try to sell the idea to your M) that you should only put a re-port in when you have something Ipt Interest to tell the school or a f jjxcial notice that you would like lto have printed. In this way none nf the clubs could call each other "back numbers" for not having in 1 wports and, I believe, the Notes would be benefited infinitely. CHARLES WOOD. OUR LIBRARY I Is checking up we find that stu¬dents are patronizing our library to I the extent that this year's circula-tion has more than doubled that of list year's, thus far, I Last year during the month of Setpember 375 books were taken out, !compared with 621 books, six pic- I tarts. 15 pamphlets for the same j month this year. A great increase was shown in both years during the month of October; throughout Oc¬tober, 1930, 680 books were in circulation, in comparison with 1211 looks, eight pictures and 20 pamphlets for the same month this year. I So far in the month of November, I llD average of 55 books a day have (teen taken out. These figures do i not include books out for one pe¬riod or reference books used in the library, but are for home circulation The increase is probably due to I (the enlarging of the library over twice the former capacity, a new desk, a supply of beautiful pictures [ on the walls, and other minor details FAY CARDON.

COUNCIL Regular council meeting was call¬ed to order by President Stone. The roll was called; the minutes were read and approved. By a motion, Mr. Hopkins' report for the tennis court committee was accepted. I-Wannan-O was granted a party for Saturday, November 21.

It was moved and seconded that a committee of three be appointed to arrange for a "Smokeless Smok¬er." The motion was passed. Mr. Farr, Mr. Becker and Mr. Stone were appointed.

SLIGHT MISUNDERSTANDING During the last or five weeks you have probably heard that rumor cir-culating that we are to have a mere paper cover on the yearbook. This is a fallacy. The cover this year will be equally as good in composi¬tion and artistic decoration as it has been in the preceding years. Un-doubtedly with the wonderful staff and advisors the Classicum should be bigger and better than ever. Even though the financial status of the editions is not as prosperous as for¬merly, the work put into them will make up in sentimental value what it lacks in financial value. VALUE OF ZOOLOGY Students entering the high school know little or nothing about the value of the courses given in natural science and so these courses are slighted, and many take them, just for the credit and nothing else. Zoology for an example, while it may not mean a job or money to you, later on, it gives the student something far more valuable. Man has always had a kindly interest in living things, from a worm to an elephant. In many this interest lies dormant, especially in those who live in the cities. The course as it is taught here, Js an effort to arouse in the minds of the students an enduring interest and love for all living things; even an elementary course in zoology with the above viewpoint will tend to keep the students' natural love for living things active. People who have a love for living things make the best men and women. All this proves that zoology has a moral value, which may mean a great deal bo you some day. SID GORDON. The secret for the imitation of Lula Hodgson's dimples has been found at last. Take a Helena Rubenstein lipstick case and press the rounded ends to the face where Simples would look most attractive; hold firmly in this position each light while reading your history esson. This action repeated every light for the remainder of the year will produce the most surprising re¬sults, both in history and in popu- .arity. HOPING FOR THE BEST The ommanding voice of President Hunter finally succeeded in winging Congress to order last Monday, Suffice it to say that the isual business at last surrendered ;o the order of the day. Virginia Sunter and Alice Dunn slung words or the affirmative; Edna Williams md Mary Underwood retorted for he negative. The bone of conten- ion was: Resolved, That the Senior class of '32 Give Ogden High an emblem. The affirmative profited vhen the decision was announced. After Kiyoko Oda and Helen lindquist journeyed to the frigid wne of Forum and were politely dis- nissed, the enemy sent a commit- ee to negotiate with Congress. The erms of peace were that Congress ondescended to debate Forum December 4 on the pleasing subject: Resolved, That Weber college be nade a part of the state school sys- em. A flipped coin presented the senators with the negative of the question. Congress, requesting a de¬cision, is to be allowed to choose the judge (applications please). The meeting adjourned when Kiyoko Oda and Helen Lindquist were hosen as the club's debaters. HELEN LINDQUIST, Reporter. SHOOT IF YOU MUST The "dead eye dicks" of the Ogden High school rifle team are pre- taring to start their drive for first! gface in the Ninth corps area by defeating Pasadena in a telegraph match to be held some time dur¬ing the week ending December 18. Fifteen are to be chosen for the team and as 70 turned out there should be a good group of "bullseye erasers" left when the team is fin¬ally chosen. There are eight men left over from last year, namely: Bader, Gibson, i Cartwright, Brewer, Neilson, Rushmer, Clark and Harbertson. With these men as the nucleus of the team Sarge declares the outlook to be bright and cheery. With Sarge (Buffalo Bill) Holloway and Captain (Daniel Boone) Sparks to guide them, the boys should have no trouble in literally "knocking 'em dead." TU. Norm and Wash Tubbs have something in common. They've both become real "ladies' men." AUNT JANE'S CORNER Dear Aunt Jane: What wood yu suggest that wee kood doo too Mr. Kasius wen hee assines uss sutch terabel essais and assinements?

THE NIGHT OF NIGHTS "Ladies and gentlemen, step right this way; please don't rush; there are enough to go around." These words were said by our il¬lustrious bookkeeping teacher. Take the hint, scholars, because buying a student body card will save you 50 cents tonight and more later on. The admission to our dance is 50 cents apiece and 75 cents a couple. ! The dance is strictly informal, and, anyway, sport dresses are much more becoming. The orchestra will start at 9 o'clock, so don't miss the first dances. The Berthana hall will not be decorated because of the lack of turkeys and pilgrims, but you will be entertained in other ways. To the poor boys without a date I have but one suggestion, that is to either commit suicide or install a telephone. To the girl my advice is to come regardless, because there will be plenty of boys. If you have a new formal dress put it in the attic. I don't like the things anyway.—Ar¬thur Cartwright. IMPORTANCE OF MUSIC Never has there been a time when man was known to exist without music. Even in the early days the primitive man had a sense of hear¬ing and rhythm long before he ever could speak. As the world prog-ressed, music became a bigger fac¬tor than ever before, until it now has reached the point where mu¬sic is absolutely essential in every home and in all of our activities. When one goes to a picture show, a large part of the program is entire¬ly musical, some classical and some jazz. In the home one finds at least the piano and radio, and even at school a good part of the time is devoted to opera, orchestra, band and the glee clubs. In the more modern schools the rooms have been equipped With loud speakers con¬nected to a radio in the office, so that everyone may enjoy the bene¬fit of music. One reason why music is such an important factor is that it express¬es any emotion the heart can feel. When one is gay and happy, music serves as an outlet. When one is blue and depressed, quiet, soothing music always has a wonderful effect on the nerves. It has been said, "Music doth sooth the savage fbeast"; nothing could bemore full of truth. When one thinks of all the great composers that have toiled night and day to bring forth wonderful masterpieces, it is no wonder that music is so important. Nothing will ever be able to supress it for it will continue to live in the hearts of; man forever and ever.—Virginia! Peterson. THREE HONORED We extend congratulations to our three football players who were se¬lected for the all-division team. Glen Hendricks has made first team and is ranking high for state hon¬ors. Dan Milligan is the only junior ever to make the all-division team in the history of Ogden High school football. Herman Lehman has made the second team and this is indeed a feat of headwork and field general-ship. He is probably the smallest quarterback in the division.—An In¬terested Senior.
