Aerent for Weber Association The students of Weber are again honored by having the opportunity to participate in the annual Grant Oratorical contest which is to take place on President Grant's birthday, November 22. The purpose President Grant has in giving this contest is to create an interest In public speaking and to give the students an opportunity to get more thoroughly acquainted with the Gospel. It ha be.en made a rule by the faculty this year that every student who takes Theology must hand in a ten minute oration or sermon for this contest by November the 4 th. Fellow students, don't stop at simply handing in your paper to your Theology teacher but have it corrected and improve on it and then show President Grant that you have the true Weber spirit and try out for the final contest November the 2 2nd. The subject which President Grant has chosen this year is "What Appeals to Me Most in Cur Gospel, and Why." This is a very good subject because it can be developed from so many different angles. Now fellow students don't wait till the last week before the contest begins but get to work on your oration now. Any of the teachers will be glad to help you and let's make this a banner year for Weber in her oratorical contests. oo LIBRARY BOOKS Do we realize Uie powers, the force, behind concentrated energy? Dilly dally ambition means a life of scattered efforts. One thing hoisted over (the top, spells success. The modern age insists upon men and women jwhose training is positive upon just one avenue in the vast realm of knowledge. The difference between the individual who hoists one well developed pro-I position and the one who breaks his hoister with a lot of unorganized ends, lis not in work, but in intelligent work. The one has permitted his vision to peep into the future: the other has built up and then destroyed. That this latter fact mav be impressed, remem ber, of all the insects that visit the flower, the bee is the only one that pulls out with honey. We arfc very often told to aim high, but we must aim at some definite target. How about the magnetic needle? It does not point at all the bodies in the heavens to see which it favors the sun has a pulling attraction, the stars try to flirt with its affections, but the needle, true to its very instinct, points with positiveness to the North Star. So, along the path of life we will meet lights that attract, roads that beckon with their apparent beautifully blossomed courses, but, like the needle, keep pointing toward one definite, well-developed North Star. ; This year has Rf-en Uu addition of many interesting now books to the ; Weber library.

Miss Myra Wright is still advertising for a fellow. Come on boys! Let's rally! At the meeting of the Weber college board of education, held Wednesday-evening, a number of changes were effected. President John V. Bluth, who has been secretary of the board for many years, was released as secretary but, of course, remains as a member of the board. He was released because of the new duties which' devolve upon him as president of the North Weber stake. The students of the Weber college, as far as they are concerned, are grateful for the long and devoted service of President John V- Bluth and are haopy that he has become president of one of our three stakes- , President John Watson. the financial friend of the students and of the teachers, was retained as treasurer of the board but relieved of the detailed duties of buying for and of keeping the accounts of the school. President Watson deserves the consideration ex- I tended to him because he has been j faithful in this detailed work ever since our school was established. Besides I buying for and keeping the accounts of the school he has aided the students in their financial affairs. He has not only helped them in their accounts but he has also given of his own money, more than once, for the support and maintenance of the student activities. Had it not been for his financial hand our Acorn and one or two of our athletic activities would have gone to the wall before now. We are glad that he has been relieved of the detailed duties of his office that he may be free to look to the larger financial interests of the school. Professor Eli Holton, head of our department of business education, was appointed to succeed President Bluth as secretary of the board and to take up the work of accountant and purchasing agent for the school. He will keep the minutes of the board of education and he will see that the minutes of the student association are kept, working In connection with Joseph An-dprson, secretary of the Associated Students; he will keep all acoounts of both the board of education and of the Associated Students of the Weber Normal college. The changes made are for greater efficiency. President Bluth has more time to devote to the affairs of the North Weber stake; President Watson is free to attend to the larger financial interest .of the school; and Professor Holton, being in the school can efficiently care for all purchasing and accounting. Professor Holton thus becomes a member of the school board. December fourteenth and fifteenth are the dates secured from Mr. Goss for our school play. "Peg O' My Heart," The cast has been filled for several days, and the rehearsals are going well. "Peg O My Heart" brought fame to Lourette Taylor, who is the wife of J. Hartley Manners, author of the clever comedy. So pronounced was the "hit" she made as the droll and child-like Peg, that the play ran for three seasons in New York City and two in London- It is decidedly one of the best comedies of recent years, and has been .upon the market in book form a few months only. The student body is to be congratulated upon the efficiency of the cast, which includes the following names: Marguerite Rogers, Wallace .Budge, Maybelle Hoist, Lenore Croft. Junius Tribe. Nan Emmett. Joseph Jeppson, Frank Douglas and Rulon Peterson. These students are sacrificing social pleasures in order to place "Peg O' My Heart" on a plane with The Fortune Hunter and other comedies which won laurals for Weber. Weber must stand behind them. oo FORMER WEBER TEACHER WRITES notwoon Masc .Tnp .Tennson. Grace Hull and their friends hold friendly socials near the fountain on tne lowei finr,!- nf tiip hniUline. These socials often go over into class periods. This is very displeasing 10 rres. kicks and to the teachers who are annoyed by their dragging in fifteen minutes late. Reporters are not allowed to attend these meetings, so very little is known of the business transacted. It is supposed that the meetings are devoted to the making of future dates, trips, socials, etc. Don't cuss about Pete not kicking goal. About the only way that most of us could accomplish the feat is by walking up and kicking the goal itself, instead of the ball. , oo Little Agonies in Rhyme HEBE'S ANOTHER WE'LL SAY SO M'hen a boy with his arm around a girl drops a lighted cigaret down Inside his sport shirt and it feels like a drop of Ice water it Is either time to' propose or go home.

Death from old age is usually the result of having been born too long ago. The other day the Coach held out two pairs of shoes and sweetly inquired, "Does anybody here belong to these shoes?" Just then Alt Halverson steps up and smells one pair. Shakes his head, turns around and smells the others and says, "These are Eke's." Now that our team is primed to film with Davis and with Ogden Hlsh, 1 feel it in my bones to sing and litter notes both long and wry. It is not often I'm possessed with pop that now infests my soul but my heart's pounding on my vest so hard thnt it has made a hole. My feet are itching to be off to hit the sidelines once again. My lungs are pining to 3 cough when with them I would raise tip. Cnln.

And I would like to wildly hoot until my throat ia punk and hoarse but It would do no good to root before the games cmo off. of course. All these and lliuse I'd like to do still I must sigh and say, "Ah, well!" If soon the games don't snap in view I may wax sore and say something worse.- The old saying that Life if one darn thing after another, but Love is two darn things after each other, is still true. It i snot generally known that automobiles become tired. Llewellyn McKay informs us that they are tired before they leave the factory. San Emmett tells us that the only resemblance that there is between a dead dog and a telephone pole Is that both have lost their barks. -oo- -oo- SENIOR REPORT Again we fee class '22 coming to the front. Mr. Joseph Jeppson carried off first place in the James L. Barker exterpara neous Speaking contest. This Is the second victory for our Senior class during: the three contests and we are full ot enthusiasm and "pep" and j mo backing our men to future suc cess in inese coniesis. It is anticipated by our class to get its class pins and rings in the near future so as it can be dlstinkulshed as class "22" from rest of school. We expect side glances from underclassman but they should not be envious; their turn is coming some day just as we have waited for ours. A bout eight nf the foot ball players on the regular team hale from the Senior cinss. Six of the thirteen prospective de-bators are Seniors. Wo have members in our eiass who are capable of carrying off all honors for Weber in her Public Speaking contests with Ogden High. We have boys in this class who. with the help of others can carry Wcber to victory in basketball. We do not mean this boastingly but you can see that class "22" is behind the student body in a 1 1 a c t i v i t i e s in trying to put W eber to the front where the belong?. ft is not expected that one c!as could do u alone so we ask your help in pushing the purple and w hit forward. A FEW HINTS Never copy any nates in class memorize them. Paper is too expensive.Always throw scrap-paper, lunch-wrappers, etc., on the floor. Waste-baskets are for decorative plrposes only. Never stay for yell-practice, or if you do, be as quiet as possible; otherwise you may contract a bad case of yell-itis. ' Always can your initials on desks, backs of chairs, etc. It Is a good pastime and besides it improves their appearance wonderfull. WOULDN'T IT BE WONDERFUL If some inventive genius would get out. an air-cushion to put under your left elbow when leaning against the radiator. If some one would 'dope-out' a few new snappy yells. If 'Pete' Couch owned a lunch-counter.If O. H. S. just loved us and we returned the feeling OH MAMMA. If text-books were three , for a quarter. If we could get the mamimum of credit for the minimum of study in the minimum og time instead of the opposite. Per J. Jeppson in Barker contest. If Lwellyn McKay read the Book- tionarv (Dictionary instead of JWHIZ BANG. If Henry Ford would give a 'hug' for fifty gum wrappers. (But what 'snide' has time to joy-ride?) If we could have the Gymnasium now and pay for it on the installment plan. If the 'Herald' didn't print, such 'bunk' as this. If overcoats were $3.98. Litt 'e kid -by -the-way aide.

L. Nelson at one time a i teacher at the Weber Normal college recently wrote an article concerning religious training at the Brigham Young college of which he is now ft teacher. It being applicable to Weber as well, we print it here. Prof Nelson has taken his points very well. The article follows: 1 "Recently I had the satisfaction of meetin, in a rather intimate way, some four or five hundred of Cache Valley's young men and women. I say In a intimate manner, for a reception of students and teachers at the beginning of a promising school year is always an occasion f-or that frank, open, hearty good will which rare fails to give the observer an insight to what is characteristic t ill all who. take part. In this time honored means of getting together, there is the significant warmth of the handshake, the vibrant tones of the voice, the flash of the eye, the smile and banter, and later .the general march and the dance all so many mirrors actively reflecting the soul striving to exhibit it's better self. "What struck me especially was the notable variety of fine family types in this third generation since the Pioneers. Everyone whose hand 1 grasped and into whose eyes I looked a brief moment or two, was an individual a distinct personality, pust as one should expect from the strong traits of their grand parents. Occasionally at such functf ons one meets with heaviness, stolidity, or surplus .anlmality; but here the observer was impressed rather with that fluidity of movement and gesture which betokens the bright, quick mind and promising spiritual endowment. It was in many ways a unique experience to me. Surely Northern Utah may be proud of her boys and girls. "Next came the thought "How are these young people to be handled, so as to realize the splendid promise shining from their eager faces? The year belongs to themthe school and all the power for good that It can muster. Shall we succeed in winning over the majority whole heart and soul to the Kingdom of God? Or shall we have to pay heavy tolls to the social pull, the movie pull, and the always present pull toward ease and self-indulgence ? " 'Man is that he may have joy,' says our Father in Heaven. 'Man is that he may have pleasure,' 'says the God of this world- Which shall be supreme In the lives of these young people during this school year joy or pleasure? "Joy is the Invariable accompaniment of growth and achievement, the exultant surprise of climbing to new vistas, the glow and warmth of truth-discovery, the sensation of enlarged power when self conquers self; but especially does joy flood the being, when the student 'finds' himself a greater discovery than that of Columbus, for it( is one which happens only when he has found his Father in Heaven, 'This is life eternal, to know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent. "Pleasure, on the other hand, especially when followed as an end in life is superficial and transitory. As Burns tells us, 'Pleasures are like poppies spread; you seize the flower the bloom is shed.' For pleasui is the mere garnishing ot this adobe hotel, the gratifying of appetites and carnal desires, the reckless spending of vital powers including money, the fruit of toil, and time the gift of God. In short! as a pursuit or serious purpose pleasure yields only diminishing returns which end at last in satiety and dis- I gust. It s brief exhilirations are, moreover, purchased at the expanse of unraveling or tearing down what better days have knitted together or built up- A mnnument to its un-ter emptiness might be made from the life of the cowboy or sheep-herder who hoards his $40,000 a month for a whole year in order to have a two weeks' bust in the city. "Thus we have with us today the ! problem ever present during the mortal probation of eternal spirits. I Paul was not the first teacher of re-t ligion, nor the last, to feel anxiety ! as to the outcome. "Little children,' ; h wrote affectionately to the Gaia-'. I nan, 'my spirit travaileth as In ; birth, till Christ be farmed with yon.'. ! So also the teachers in the b. yJ ' cellege. They are keenly anxious that : : Joy and not mere pleasure shall be I the prevailing motive among the atu- dents: and like Paul they also fei ! that their rievp personal responsibility ' will be effectually lifted, only when ;the testimony of the Gospel is form-: od within the hear:? of these young I people. Thereafter the Lord himaelf :wil! guide them aright. I As to other factor? of religious I training in the TV Y. coileg they, fare especially au?pif;ous thie year. , 'The nu miter of teachers :? f-.iiiy ad"-' ; riuate to the nre-"lp rf th school. : They are. moreover, true Latter Pay j ' a;nt. rr,"n ?r;1 won;?i i-.t whom Gos pel training appeals as the paramount issue in education. "Another promising factor is a new-set of theological guides gotten out at the recent church teachers" sum-met school in Provo, and represen ting the ripest experience of actual class work in all the church schools and seminaries. These outlines are planned on the logical rather than the chronilogical order, and every lesson is supported by material drawn, not only from the standardc hurch works, but also from history, biography, science, and what ever other source affords citation for fact ullustratioi. To say that they are admirable, both for accuracy and for faith-promotion, is giving them but mild praise- "That are schools are now functioning along lines revealed so clearly to their first great teacher. Dr. Karl G. Maeser. will be evident from the aims set forth in one of these guides, viz: " 1 . To establish an unshakable testimony of the truthfulness of this Latter Pay work. "2. To create and unquenchable thirst for more knowledge concerning it. "3. 'To develop a loyalty and devotion toward it that can never be questioned. "4. To fix habits of work and conduct, and attitudes of mind that shall always insure the companionship of the spirit of God. "That Latter Lay Saints may be counted upon to stand solidly behind this great religious training movement, they need only be reminded of what each one already knows; viz, that our supreme mission in life is to bring back to the Father the heavenly spirits entrusted to our care- "To this end everything else in life must bend. Should we forget thisi supreme duty, either by reason of neglect, or through centering our ambitions on wealth, human diA-tinction, or other mundane object, the reckoning, when these worldh attainments shall be placed in the balance against children gone astray, can never be a pleasant prospect in life,, and must forever remain a painful retrospect ineternity."
