Suggestion Made That More Value Be Put In Student Body Tickets Should Be Declared Good At Out of City Games, Says Writer OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette, Editor Jack Bennett, Associate Editor A student body ticket would be of much greater value if it would admit one to out-of-town games. If the usefulness of the student body tick¬ets were increased, the sale of them would be greatly encouraged. If a student body ticket, or a ticket and ten cents would admit one to out-of-town games, the attendance at these games would be greatly in¬creased as more of the students would be able to raise the small amount of ten cents than are now able to pay the comparatively large sum of twenty-five cents. If the facts I have mentioned above will apply to our school, they will apply to the other high schools in the league; therefore, it should be very easy to make some arrangements with the other schools in the league. How about it?—J. E. S. BACK OF LEGION Ogden High and Weber High are 100 per cent behind the American Legion in their efforts to give us a big Armistice day. We shall march, we shall furnish music and enter¬tainment, we shall play football (and how we shall play!), and do all we can. We approve of their plan to bar passes, complimentaries and what nots to our great game. We shall pay to see this great classic. SUCCESS IN LIFE There is an old proverb that says: "When there's a will there's a way! This proverb can be ap¬plied to our lives; if we desire suc¬cess and seize every opportunity, we usually are successful. We get from life just what we put into it and nothing more. The making of friends, I believe, is the most im¬portant factor toward making our lives a success. Another essential is that cdch day we add a little more good to our character. A suc¬cessful person is one who can take his bad luck along with the rest of the people and still maintain a cheery disposition and smile. If we try to make ourselves equal to our highest aim and ideal, we shall be truly successful.—Blondie. WHAT WILL YOU BE? One of the sages of long ago once said that "the only way to judge the future is by the past." This statement being true, there must arise from the ranks of our gener¬ation men and women who will be equal in greatness to Julius Caesar, Homer, Thomas Edison and Queen Elizabeth. These men and women are just recognized to be the greatest men and women of their time. Most of these leaders have long since passed from our earth and in their places must arise new leaders. Now the time comes when it is our turn to fill the places left vacant by the great leaders of the past generations. Are we capable of replacing these splendid leaders of the past? Upon questioning e shrink back at the thought that we are to be the leaders of the next generation. In other words, we do not think that we are capable of taking over these vast responsibilities handed down to us by men and women who have passed from our earth. Therefore, it is our sole duty to so educate ourselves that when the time comes we shall be able to select from our number, men and women, who will equal in heroism the leaders of the near-forgotten past.—Blaine Larson. PHI LAMBDA TAU Just so you'll know: Phi Lambda Tau has defeated Zeta Phi Xi and Los Loritos in the club volleyball tournament. Phi Lam meets A. D. M. next Monday noon in volleyball. Phi Lam is the first club to wholly support the school cafeteria, and heartily recommend the tasty lunches that can be obtained there. —Reporter. WHAT IS SUCCESS? Have you ever stopped to consider what success is? The reply is that the majority of us have never given its definition much serious thought. There are numerous types of suc¬cess. A person who accomplishes that to which he aspires may well be called a success. A person may, therefore, be a successful robber, murderer, pickpocket or some such profession, for he has carried out his anticipations to a degree of perfec¬tion that is satisfactory to him. A person's outlook on life influences his heights of success. The quotation, "The surest way not to fail is to determine to sueceed," is very worth while and should call for some experimenting. In selecting your aspirations, elim¬inate those which are degrading and search for those of a lofty charac¬ter. A fabulously wealthy man may be possessor of enormous wealth, while a poor man may be badly in need of money. If the poor man has real¬ized his ambitions while the other has discarded his for the pursuit of luxury, the poor man is the suc¬cessful member of the pair. HITCH YOUR WAGON The old adage, "Hitch your wagon to a star" is very appropriate, for if the individual has enough ambi-tion to forge ahead until his goal is reached, no matter on what heights" he has placed his desires, he will obtain them, if it is absolutely pos¬sible. Let us therefore seek for success in uplifting things for, as Hare says, "There is a glare about worldly suc¬cess that is "ery apt to dazzle men's eyes."—Barbara Taylor. MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 13, 1933. Girls Aroused By Ways Stronger Sex Learning Gentle Art of Make-up Even Winning Mannerisms Become Property of Imitators OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette, Editor Jack Bennett, Associate Editor "When a man tries to make him¬self look beautiful, he steals a wo¬man's patent right."—Josh Billings. If this statement is to be believed, many of the male gender are guilty of larceny. Strange as it seems, the gentle art of primping has changed hands. No longer does the weaker sex reign supreme. We have been forced out of our rightful position and made to take second place in the race for beauty. There was a time in the good old days when men were men and boys were boys, but now both of them have become extinct, and in their place we find some very effeminate creatures. These strange beings have plucked their once bushy eye¬brows and waved their once unruly locks of hair. To make matters worse, they can be seen at any and all times carefully sombing their beautiful (?) hair and smoothing their daintily arched brows. Not only are our beauty tricks being copied, but also our charming little mannerisms. The creatures, are even stealing our provocative glances and coy expressions. The only thing left for them to adopt is the habit of shrieking and faint¬ing at the sight of a mouse! Girls! we must rise in protest against such procedures, and so let' us break loose and do our best to banish these undesirable objects. THOUGHTS OF TODAY The greatest of all virtues is to forgive all. Life is what we make it; there¬fore, make it to please ourselves. A smile is like a ray of sunshine. A frown is like a cloud of rain. After we die we will be remem¬bered by what we do and not what we shall do.—Just Who? TOIL NECESSARY Hitler said, "education is not play, it is work." Careful consideration on the part of the doubtful will bring an under¬standing of Hitler's viewpoint. We may all find this to be true by merely turning our gaze on those people about us. Those individuals who have strived and reached the pinnacle of success in education have not dallied along the way, not shirked, but have exhausted great stores of energy and time during their progress toward their destina¬tion. Great men and women of the -world of learning have had a de¬sire to learn and by mental toil and labor have attained that to which they have aspired. However, we should take note of the fact that "Rome was not built in a day." Neither is an education built on a single preparation we be when they have stolen the boys who used to be ours. AFTER PAINS One man's loss is another man's gain. This is demonstrated in the selection of R.O.T.C. officers and of sponsors. While the lucky one is exulting in the honor that has come, another heart is nigh breaking for having aspired, and having met dis¬appointment and defeat. All cannpt move in the front ranks, but it always hurts to be forced to march in the rear of the procession. So to; make a long story short, while we are congratulating the elect, let us not forget to condone with those who temporarily sense defeat. You cannot keep good men and women down. AT CAFETERIA Students have displayed their enthusiasm concerning football, R. O. T. C. and music, but little at¬tention has been paid to the school cafeteria. I am sure everyone is anxious to promote all the activities of the school. In order to do this, the cafeteria members need the full support of both boys and girls. Af¬ter visiting the cafeteria once, you will be anxious to visit the cafeteria regularly. DO HONOR JUSTICE Congratulations can now be free¬ly given. The sponsors are all finally and finely selected. We all hope that the two little sponsors that were seen practicing marching Friday morning will be able to take the measurements of: the boys—in steps we mean. Everyone hopes that the high: honor bestowed on the seven girls: —Mary, Barbara, Adele, Dorothy, Ruth, Charlene, and Gwen, will not give them a swelling or an inflation of the ego. Success to you, girls!—Grandma R.D.M. AMBITION PLUS Every day holds an opportunity, waiting to be recognized and used. One only seizes these opportunities when he has a goal set before him. Ambition and action go hand in hand up that ladder of success. To attain this much sought for suc¬cess, one must first have deep down in his heart a desire to climb that ladder round by round until he reaches his goal. By adding a little action to that ambition, one will most assuredly reach that top round of the ladder. Remember, ambition plus action. |
