Show MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 26, 1934. HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS SEEK SOCIALADVICE Classicialia Information Is Looked For; Class Has Perfect Record OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor A REQUEST The Classicalia is probably the most interesting event to which we look forward; therefore I think the students of Ogden High should know more about this all impor¬tant affair. Most of the seniors, I believe, know what they are in for, but the juniors and some of the newer participants in school activi-ties do not. We inexperienced ones, who mean to attend this most de¬sirable school function, would pre¬fer to know more about that in which we are indulging. What is the proper dress for this occasion, etc.? I make this appeal to whoever is concerned. Please give all the de¬tails.—Eugene Poulter. NOTE: There is a committee whose duty is to advertise and ad¬vise you of these details. Let's hope they start to function. NEWS FOR THE ITEMS! Next week is "print dress week." Starting on March 26 we're going to have lots of sweet (fresh) little girls. Anklets are very appropriate now that skating is quite the "thing." So let's go, girlies. Of course hair ribbons accompany anklets and print dresses—so where are we now? I wouldn't know that. —Sadie Girl. CONGRATULATIONS We wish to congratulate Mr. Vic¬tor Hancock's second period class on their good attendance March 22, 1934. It has been the object of Mr. Hancock's classes to gain perfect attendance and on this day we at¬tained it. Keep up the good work, students.—Arleen Ballinger. Have you ever: Heard Mrs. Newcombe say: "Woe be unto you?" Seen Maurie skating? Heard Woodrow P. say: "Come, let me clutch thee"? Seen Mr. Hancock do the Span¬ish fandango? Heard the band practice? Seen John H. in knickers? Heard about the first period chemistry class in laboratory? Seen Grant R. fall down while skating? Heard Virginia B. say: "Oh, fairy dust?" Seen those two Central dames up at high school during the noon hour? Heard Florence W. say: "Oh, shucks?"—Look and Listen. Seniors: At the class meeting Monday it was decided that the class would adopt the announcement card marked No. 5. These cards must be sent for as soon as possible; there¬fore the sooner you order, the bet¬ter. The price is not definite as yet, but as soon as anything is found out, you will be notified. Give your orders to one of the class officers, George Larkin, Dorothy Bowman, or Ruth Ketchie. —R. K. LITTLE THINGS "It's the little things in life that count. The fellow that takes little interest in his work accomplishes but little, is paid but little and lasts but a little while." "Win respect by being respec¬table." "Let a shave and a shine be your morning's first investment." "The fellow who works by the clock never earns the price of a watch." "When you get the idea that the world is against you, it is." "You never hear a busy man complaining about his lot in life. It's always the loafer who does the kicking."—Take it From Me. TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 27, 1934. Class Places Ban On Satin And Taffeta Simplicity and Beauty Are Desired In Dresses For Graduation OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Mary Paquette—Editor Jack Bennett—Associate Editor Soon one-half of the student body will be graduated from Ogden High school, some ceasing their school days forever. All through their lives will linger memories of their glimpses of happiness, excitement, and fun derived within these halls and the beautiful ceremony of graduation. Naturally, girls would wish to be dressed in clothes becom¬ing for their personalities and ap¬propriate for the final occasion so that they may remember that day with pride. Satin and taffeta dresses are abso¬lutely taboo, and because of lack of suitability and taste shown in wear¬ing one of that material for such an event it is hoped that no one will appear in such clothing. Any other material is desirable, so, girls, at¬tend the graduation exercises in a dress which will denote fitness and the power of discerning and appre¬ciating correctness.—Emily Merrill. CHANGE GOOD AS A REST The students in the library have a great deal to say concerning the stomping of feet in the gym over-head. They may be perfectly justi¬fied in doing so. But did you ever have to sit through a class and listen to "The Woman in the Shoe", pounded out on a piano a thousand and one times in forty-five minutes? Having never been captured by cannibals, we cannot be sure, but we imagine that the piano version of this popular (?) song has the same effect on a studying (?) student as the incessant beating of drums has on the brain of a person about to be devoured by these man-eating hu¬mans. We fellows are not allowed to in¬quire about conditions in the noisy gym classes so we don't know the cause of this repetition of music all through the classes. If it is be¬cause of a lack of music, we say order new music! If there is plenty of music, let's play some of it, in¬stead of just "The Woman in the Shoe." Not a criticism, girls, just a sug¬gestion!—Blaine Larsen. FORESIGHT What a gift God gave to man when he bequeathed imagination upon him. When he gave to Colum¬bus an imagination large enough to span the gap of the oceans; when the Wright brothers imagined flight into the air; and when Marconi dreamed and imagined a machine to hurl sound through the ether. A gift portioned out equally to all humans but a gift which in many persons is uncultivated and unused. A brain is given to everyone but only to the thinker does it benefit. Many students are cultivating their imaginations and are deciding what they want to become while others are just floating on the river of life going wherever they are taken and offering no resistence. I wonder if these students could use their imaginatiotn as the others are doing, and see where they are going if they would not try to stiffen their backbone and be more resolute in their ways; if they would not imagine themselves as something great and work to realize that ap¬parition.—J. B. The Classicalia queen must be: D utiful, O bedient, R adiant, O bliging, T ruthful, H onest, Y oung. B eautiful, O riginal, W insome, M ajestic, A ffectionate, N aive. Who else could fill this highly ex¬alted position but the one whose name and character contains each ideal—Dorothy Bowman? PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT The ability to see the truth in any thing and then to put it into prac- tice is a good quality in anyone. I am sure we all see the truth in Mr. Glade's arguments, which he placed before the assembly Friday. Now why should we not attempt to fol¬low this plan which he has been so kind as to bring to light. It would certainly be something to be proud of if we could say twenty years from now, "Ogden High school was the first school as a whole to adopt the plan of each individual setting down the things he desires in life and endeavoring to attain these things. Ogden High was also the first school to succeed in this plan and produce the genius which we have today." Students, is not this something to strive for? Let's all follow this plan and have proof of our sincerity on our next report cards—Eugene Poulter. AS A FAVOR In one of the poorer sections of the city there struggles a small but valiant band of would-be Girl Scouts, The girls composing this group haven't the means to pay their yearly registration fee at na¬tional Girl Scout headquarters. The Girls association of O. H. S. recog¬nizing the good work done by scouting, has therefore undertaken to raise money to pay this fee. "We'll hold a rummage sale!" said one of our star council members. 'Just the thing," cried another, and the deed was done. This sale will be held on Saturday, March 31, on lower Twenty-fifth street. If your last year's dress is too small for you, Dring it. If you have several "white elephant" objects of art around pour house, bring them, even if they ire wedding gifts from Aunt Hatty. See if your neighbors have anything they can't use, if so bring that too. Please.—Charlene Woods. AN IMPRESSION My impressions of a queen are: She should be beautiful, have a wonderful personality, have intelli-gence, and last but not least, she should have a sweet disposition. Who but Barbara Reeves has these qualities, and who would make a better and prettier queen than Bar¬bara?—L. R. RIDDLES If we are all brothers under the skin, what are we outside? If the world moves seventeen miles per minute, how many miles do hu¬man beings move per hour? If we only get what we pay for what do we get when we don't pay? If blondes are preferred, brunettes admired, red-heads craved, what would peroxides possess? — Emily Merrill. |
