Show 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 destination. 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. To obtain an education, one need not be brilliant. It is often he who possesses the ordinary type of brain but plods along energetically, who has a better one than his brilliant 'friend who studied no assignments, t In Germany the extra curricular activity is politics. While the ma¬jority of the American students in¬dulge in athletics and sports, they turn to more serious things. The French people's education is incom¬plete without a course of manners or courtesy. These various nationalities think that the already mentioned "side lights" are absolutely' necessary for a good education. At any rate, we are ready to accept Adolph Hitler's ideas on this matter and feel that it is true, that to become truly educated one must work hard and intelligently.—Bar¬bara Taylor. AS WE SEE IT As we went down the hall we saw, [the sponsors dashing around, getting a hat here and spats there andl 'dashing to the supply room for a tie. They look so nice in their uni¬forms. They are all smiling and talking apd receiving compliments with a shy glance and a weak "thanks." Are we proud of them? How can 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. |
