Writer Calls For Effort To Foster Honestly Among Students Of High School Sees Opportunity To Build Up Standards of Institution OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette, Editor Jack Briinrtt, Associate Editor. Almost all of our leading cducators tell us that it is during the high school age that we begin to form what is known as character. During the forming of our characters we acquire many habits, soma good, some bad. tt is by the forming and practice of these habits thati our characters are formed. To make a long story short, thera is born within each and every one od us a desire to possess things than ( wc sometimes are unable to have J, This trait, common to all of us, in the end leads to dishonesty and to what wc have termed stealing. It is) because of this fault of ours that! people are forced to lock doors and lockers against those people who are unable to suppress that natural de¬sire born within them. You may wonder perhaps what this has to do with you. The fact is that we have a few students in the Ogden High who are rather in¬clined to disregard the main principle adhered to by the majority, namely the principle of honesty Students, the offenders are but few but at the same time our entire school is Judged by the conduct of, a few. Let us then try to keep up the standard of our school by promot¬ing a spirit of honesty among our classmates, a spirit that will In the end make it unnecessary to use locks on our lockers, make it possible to leave our books and belongings in the rooms and halls without fear of finding them gone when we re¬turn. If we will try to create this spirit of honesty we will find that wc will not only be better students, but better men and women—Blaine Larsen. HIKING How enjoyabie an afternoon can be when a group of lively high school girls hike to Taylor's can¬yon. Mr. White, a fine teacher and good sport, was chaperone of nearly 40 girls Monday after school. Of course the entire time was not spent in hiking but some was de¬voted to cooking our dinner over a huge bonfire, singing songs, led by Janeth Wright, and hearing many eood ghost stories told by Mrs. White before we came home at eight o'clock. I am sure much was gained by this outing and that no one is sor¬ry she went.—Eleanore Eccles. WAY TO GET "A" GRADE Very enthusiastically I rushed in¬to the chemistry laboratory willing to begin a new experiment. After a vain effort in opening the locker I set the required material upon the work board. I filled a test tube i with a compound and began to heat it. Crack! Pop! The tube broke. Af¬ter some four or five test tubes I gladly turned the task of heating compounds over to my friend. Then I proceeded to dispose of the hot broken pieces of glass. Ouch I burned my fingers. Whoopee! The bell rang and I stumbled out of Jthe room sucking my fingers be-tween moans and groans. I know I'll succeed in getting an "A" in chemistry, don't you?—Secret. NOW WE KNOW Dear Nose-All. I've decided to take advantage of your excellent help, so can you give me the exact copy of the little saying that Grant Jensen gave in assembly. "He that knows not and knows not that he knows not" etc. It will be most use¬ful to me in my scrapbook of cross¬word puzzles, riddles, etc. —Handy Mandy. Dear Handy Mandy, Here is the answer to your question I think it will be a useful addition to your scrapbook. He that knows not and knows that he knows not is ignorant—teach him. He that knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool—show him. He that knows and knows not that he knows is ineffective— pity him. He that knows and knows that he knows is wise—follow him — Nose- All. HABITS "Acts make habits; habits make character; and character makes the man." The habits acquired now are those which are important in build¬ing a notable character; for school time is the formative period of one's life. Thus, a student's behavior has a great influence in developing those traits which determine the quality of an individual. The work, habit is derived from habtiere meaning to have, and the derivative literally means the same as its source. Since these subcons¬cious actions are like buildings per¬fected only when every brick is laid in place, good habits should be fost¬ered; bad ones, obliterated. If we, students, persistently form sound moral, mental and physical habits, they will serve as reliable aids throughout life.—Emily Merrill. IN THE MIRROR What do you see in the mirror? The senior students in Mrs. New- comb's class would certainly tell you what they see. The girls dwell upon their pleasing profiles in lengthy themes. The boys are every bit as conceited, that is, they think a great deal of their handsome fea¬tures to say nothing of their win¬ning ways. If a halt isn't called in the near future, the students will probably fall in love with themselves, that is. if they haven't already done so—E. M. INTERESTING SCENE The sidewalk was crowded with handsome boys and beautiful girls, and it was difficult to pass through the door. Once inside, a gorgeous sight greeted my eyes. Colors! Mil¬lions of them! Red, green, pink, yel¬low, orange, blue, black—evey coldrj known to mankind. Music! In the arms of the good dancer you literally drift away to! the strains of dreamy waltz, or you float rapidly away to the tune of a snappy fox trot. How nice every¬thing looks. All the bright colors contrasted with the handsome black of the boys' apparel. A spirit of great fun and friend¬ship prevails, but yet there is no sign of rowdiness. Slowly, but surely the hands of the clock creep up to twelve, and the dance is over, but you may ask anyone who attended, and you will hear "Oh—I had a swell time! FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 20, 1933. Kennedy Turns In Two Long Gallops At Local Stadium Logan's Lone Touchdown Comes In Final Period On Two Long Passes From Hall To Humphries; Orange Streaks Use Reserves During Part of Encounter Ogden High school footballers displayed championship form in turning' back the colorful Logan eleven, 1932 district champions, at the stadium Saturday afternoon, 26 to 6. The Tigers by virtue of their triumph rest at the top of the league percentage column with Preston and Box Elder with three victories and no defeats. The 1933 edition of the Tigers pushed over single touchdowns in the first and second periods, saw the determined Grizzlies halt two marches in the third quarter and closed the matinee with two daz¬zling touchdowns in the final pe¬riod of play. Logan's lone score of the interesting contest came late in the fourth period of play. Two forward passes, both from Hall to Humphries, netted the Griz¬zlies 50 yards and the touch¬down On the first pass the Loganites gain¬ed 12 yards and the second pass and gallop were good for 38 yards. SCORE EARLY The Tigers buckled down to touchdown getting after seven min¬utes of play in the first period. Ken-nedy ran 25 yards around the Lo¬gan left end behind splendid inter¬ference for the first touchdown. Greenwell booted the placement for the extra point. Ogden's second touchdown came in the second period. Burbridge, the quarterback, reversed his field and ran 12 yards for the score- Greenwell's placement was blocked. In the third period Logan blocked two of Kennedy's punts and twice battled their way within the Og-den five yard stripe only to be turn¬ed back. On the first attempt the Grizzlies lost the leather on the Og¬den one foot line after Adams had blocked Kennedy's punt on the Ti¬ger nine yard mark. DeCorso intercepted a Logan pass in the fourth period and ran 15 yards to the Logan 20 yard mark before being downed. On the next play Kennedy circled the Logan left end for the third Ogden touchdown. Greenwell's placement was low. |
