THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 5, 1933. School Dance Offers Opportunity To Make Friends Among Pupils "Get-Acquainted" Party To " Be Held Week From Next Friday OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette, Editor Jack Bennett, Associate Editor Upon arrival at the institution of higher learning Known as high school, an average junior finds a number of problems facing him that perhaps iie has never before known, Perhaps first and foremost among these is the problem of meeting and making acquaintances. To most juniors coming to high school the same problem is to be faced as is faced by a stranger entering a new city. He must at once make new friends and form new acquaintances with the people about him. In the same sense a junior coming to Ogden High must meet new people and make new friends. In keeping with the custom adhered to by Ogden High school, the seniors have solved the problem of making new acquaintances by presenting the "Get Acquainted Dance" which will be held one week from next Friday night, October 13. By giving this dance the school has made it possible for the en-trance into our school life of a new and warmer friendship between students. Now students, in consid¬eration of the fact that the school has taken steps to support us, let! us in turn support the student body by attending this dance. As you may see the dance has again been postponed but the inter¬vening time will only give more boys an opportunity to save their money and get a date. Let's get acquainted.—Blaine Larsen. FRIENDSHIP "Hello Jane;" "Howdy Jack," Coming over tonight Bill?" are just a few of the exchanged greetings in the halls as the students change classes. All together they make a joyful din, and what some pople would call a dreadful noise is noth¬ing other than the making oil friendships and the greetings of new acquaintances. Although it takes time our school will even¬tually grow and expand upon the basis of friendship the only sound and secure footing for democracy and social welfare for any school organization, or even a nation.—Elva Miller.
