SCHOOL NOTES Assembly Happenings Devotional period on February 23, was occupied by Dr. D. Dwight Harding. He spoke to the students on the care they should take in regard to regularity in meals and many other things which students are apt to neglect. On February 29 Bro. Morton told the students in a very interesting address why he was glad he lived in this day and age. He said he was thankful that he belonged to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and that he lived in this country. Apostle Grant visited the school on the morning of March 7th, and spoke to the assembly on Intemperance. He gave the opinion of many great men on this subject, and admonished the students to live clean lives and not let cigarettes or liquor be the cause of their downfall or failure in life. Wednesday morning, March 8th, Reverend Henry Ostrom, of the United Christian Association, addressed the Student Body. He told the students of the many opportunities open to them in the State and in our schools. He said that intellectual education, without moral support, was unwholesome, but that intellectual education, combined with moral education, was essential. Taylor-Kasius Medal The Sophomores are very proud of themselves and their class, and they have a right to be. Louis Scoville, a member of the Class of '18, won the Taylor-Kasius medal for oratory. The medal was presented by Miss Cora Kasius, last year's editor of The Acorn, and Harvey Taylor, president of the Student Body of 1914-15. Mr. Scoville's subject was "World Wide Peace." ACORN 14 Washington's Birthday Exercises On February 21st, the Washington Birthday program was held. The chief feature of the occasion was the extemporaneous speaking between the classes of the school. The Senior team, composed of Ione Jensen and Leland Evans, was declared the winners. The subjects were along patriotic lines. Senior Notes The third extemporaneous contest, on the subject of "Preparedness," was held in devotional last week. Alta Nielson and Irene Scoville were the representatives for the Seniors, and were accorded the unanimous decision of the judges. There was a series of basketball games arranged by the committee on contests, and the Seniors and Sophomores are the two wining teams, and a set of three games are to be played to decide the winner of the series. All letter men are excluded from the contest. We are very sorry to be compelled to part with our class advisor, Bro. Dixon, who is leaving school to finish his course in the East, preparatory to receiving his Master's degree, but we wish him unbounded success in his characteristic, earnest endeavors, and we desire our best wishes to accompany him on his trip. Junior Notes Well, Class '17 is not dead, although our notes were not published in the last issue, which was not our fault but our misfortune. On the contrary, we are very much alive. It is a well known fact throughout the world that a quiet person usually takes notes, and that the said person, at some time, bursts forth with a wonderous display of knowledge and skill. Well, such is the case with '17. We have been rather quiet for a short time, but we have also been taking notes, and so fellow students, keep your eyes and ears open for in the near future, we intend to show all Weberites how to be "Real Juniors." As you know, the Juniors are giving an operetta, "The Bo'sn's Bride," and, as is the way with everything the Juniors do, it is a howling success. The cast, accompanied by Bro. Manning, journeyed to Taylor on Thursday, March 2, and to Roy on March 4. The show proved its ability to please and entertain at both places. Next Friday, March 17th, the cast will go to Huntsville, where we are sure of a success. We are going to take an orchestra with us and have a big dance after the show. Brother Manning is quite elated over the fact that the class of which he is advisor, has its numerals on the cup for debating, as he was a member of the class which presented the cup to Weber.
