Greatest Pleasure Lies In Reaction Of Worthy Deeds, Student Writes Finds Statement Made By Socrates' Pupil Not Correct OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette, Editor Jack Bennett, Associate Editor. Socrates once said that good was pleasurable. His pupil, Aristippus, said, "There is good in pleasure and pleasure is the only good." It appears that a great ma¬jority of the people of the world today are seeking to prove that Aristippus was correct when he expounded this bit of philoso¬phy. They have never taken the time nor trouble to consider the truth from which it was taken. We all know that good is pleasurable; we ourselves are exampies of this theory. When we; have attempted a task of worth rl and have succeeded, our reaction is pleasurable. Real satisfaction" is his who has committed some, worthy deed. A better world is created by those who derive' pleasure from doing good. A large percentage of the human race has adopted the latter theory. The people of this group have, as their sole purpose in life, the action of gaining pleas¬ure. Whether it is honorably ob¬tained or not seems to be of no mnseauence to them. Pleasure, that is, some iorms of it, contains much good. This statement is Aot to be doubted. But were pleasure the only good, the world in which we live would be an undesirable dwelling place. 'Entertainment or amusement is essential in everyone's life; but when it alone is sought we find it lacks a luster and brilliancy which we had imagined it would possess. The searcher soon dis¬covers that doing good has sev¬eral points in favor of it. In our high school days we form habits which are everlasting. Our future lives are deter¬mined to a lage extent by them; whether they are beneficial or detrimental has an enormous influence upon our success or! failure in life. So, let us now seek for our pleasure in doing good and prove beyond a doubt that pleasure is not the only good.—Barbara Taylor. "OUR FOOTBALL TEAM The football team of Ogden High Observed this motto, "Do or die!" By this, the Logan game was won By just holding the thought — "It can be done!" But when you're naming off the heroes and calling off the roll, Don't forget the adage that "the parts make up the whole." No matter what each did, whether better than the best, What was done was possible by the help of the rest. —Wendell Phillips. A BIT OF ADVICE Do: Join at least one organi¬zation and take part in at least one activity. Do: Meet all financial obligations promptly. Do: Take enough interest in school life to make suggestions if you see ways it can be im¬proved. Do: Co-operate with cadet officers in their efforts to make four battalion the best. Do: Always have a smile for the student body and faculty. Do: Learn to do your work honestly, Do: Things worth doing. Don't: Take tickets that you can't pay for, but only what you can afford. Don't: Forget to greet new¬comers. A spirit of friendliness is a fine asset for any school. Don't: Come to affairs to which you are not invited. Don't: Forget that the office is ready to give advice when you encounter school .difficulties. A call at the office may save you much grief. Don't be sent for. Don't: Fail to introduce your friends to others when they are at a social affair. Don't: Forget that your cadet uniform represents your school and nation. Please be neat. Don't: Knock your school nor gossip about your fellow students. The name of your school is in danger if you do. Don't: Forget that absences for other reasons than illness should be approved by the office before leaving school. Remember: That courtesy demands to be appreciative for the programs and talks in the as¬semblies; that you have your part to do to make our school life a success.—J. W. P.

YOUTHS MAKING STRONG START Out For Further Awards In Western Training Contest The Ogden High school R.O.T.C. companies have been organized un¬der temporary officers and work is progressing nicely, according to Ma¬jor C. W Dyer, professor of mili tary science and tactics The youths are in better physique, training and discipline at present thar they were at this time a year ago, he re-ports. The cadets were seen in Navy day on down town streets for the first time this season and, while it was but a volunteer parade, the stu¬dents made a good turnout; Major Dyer added. The next public showing will be made2 on Armistice day when the cadets will participate in a street parade and celebration. By that time the permanent officers and the school sponsors will have been named, the major predicts, and an excellent showing is expected. The cadets are working hard to be awarded an honor rating this school year- They have earned such since 1924, and in 1932-33 were placed second in the Ninth corps area. "This was a remarkable rating," Major Dyer poi-nts out, "considering the poor Weather conditions, that the O. H. S. cadets do three years work in two years and that schools from eight states in the far west compete for the honors. On the coast, to,, cadets are able to drill outside the year around." MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 30, 1933. Orange Streaks To Battle Old Rivals On Brizham Field W eber Tackles Polished North Cache Eleven; Preston vs. Bears Northern Division Won. Lost. Pet. Ogden 3 0 1.000 Box Elder 3 0 1.000 Preston 3 0 1.000 Logan 1 1 .500 North Cache 1 1 .500 Weber 1 2 .333 Bear River 0 2 .000 South Cache 0 2 .000 Friday's Schedule Weber at North Cache. Ogden at Box Elder. Preston at Bear River. South Cache at Logan. Three teams are deadlocked for first place in the northern division of the Utah state scholastic foot¬ball race and at least one of the three clubs will be removed from the elite position this week. Ogden, boasting one of the best teams since the 1916 state cham¬pionship eleven, will oppose Box Elder on the Brig- ham City sloping gridiron Friday in the headliner of! the week in this I section of the state. Preston, Ogden, and Box Elder are the favored teams in the district. Preston tackles Bear River and should win handi¬lyjover the Bears. Box Elder recently took a 7 to 0 decision from Logan while Ogden defeated the 1932 district champions by a 26 to 6 score. On a comparison of scores the Tigers appear to be! the stronger of the two teams but comparative scores go for naught when the Bees and Tigers clash. A record breaking crowd is ex¬pected at Brigham City for the big game. Overtime practice will be in order at both camps this week. Coach Earl Ferguson of the Bees has brought his team along slowly. He looks for his men to shoot the works against the Tigers. On the other hand the Ogdenites, under command of Baldy Simkin, former Utah star, is primed to avenge numerous recent defeats at the hands of the Bees. "My team will be in the pink and ready for a torrid battle," said Coach Simkin today. Weber will meet North Cache and South Cache plays Logan in the other league attractions of the week. Inasmuch as Box Elder and Og¬den are not scheduled to meet Pres¬ton in regular league competition a play off for the division title looms. Preston looks like a cinch to win her remaining games as does the winner of the Ogden-Box Elder contest. This would mean a play off. Mark Ballif at Weber hopes to see his charges turn back the challenge of North Cache in their contest Friday. Weber at this time is sixth in the division standing. |
