Unanimous decisions were awarded in all places. Five more contests are scheduled to take place. Juniors and Seniors are tied for first honors, at present, Freshmen and Sophomores hold second and third places, respectively, while the College are holding down the cellar. The Junior class took first place being represented by Delbert Wright who spoke on "The Zionist Movement in Palestine." Mr. Wright gave a clear idea of the modern movements in Palestine, showing quotations taken from the Bible were being fulfilled.Kenneth Farley proved a worthy representative of the Senior Class, "Ancient Captivity and Recent Libation of Jerusalem" being his subject. Mr. Farley gave aJ clear view of the situations in the Palestine country under Turkish forces. He also spoke of the English army's conquest with forcibility. Staunch class patriotism showed forth in the personage, of Lewis Frith-well, when but an hour before hand, he grasped the opportunity of representing his class, hearing that no representative had been chalsen. His talk on "What Shall We Do With Jerusalem" was worthy of mention. The College and Freshmen classes were not represented. The College Class representative became frightened old stuff it is attributed. The debating manager of the Freshmen failed to rise from his slumbers and choose. No representative is the other unexcusable reason fornon-representation. NOTED EDUCATORS VISIT WEBER Superintendent Bennion, of the General Church School Board, with Apostle Lyman L. J Richards and David O.. McKay, visited the institution recently, in quest of facts rer garding our crowded conditions, in ordjer that they might thoroughly sum up the need of a new class room building. Their visit was well appreciated.With the assembly hall crowded to an over-capacity by eager, conscientious students the three visitors spoke with earnestness. , Superintendent Bennion spoke three times' on general subjects, being repeatedly called upon. He commendated the students for their attendance and the spirit of enthusiasm with which they pushed to the front in their studies. Apostle Richards spoke on "Spiritual and Religious Growth," chiefly referring to, the , students. Apostle McKay also complimented the institution's spirit and growth, with wishes that our need might soon be realized. THE EVOLUTION OF "JAZZ" sixty. They, too, abandoned themselves to the shimmy with pride and an eager eye. They would keep up youth at all costs of dignity and watchfulness over rheumatic joints All over the United States Jazz has a very conspicuous place in amuse ment circles. Victrola cases contain twenty-five or more Jazz records, and the little gathering on the cracker boxes at the four corners feel that they are not keeping up with the times unless they Jazz a little on the old mouth organ. Inded wherever one may gaze or wander, it is a case of all for Jazz, and Jazz for all. WEBER HAS LARGE STUDENT BODY THIS YEAR Mid-Year Students Makes Our Total Registration Nearly 900 (By D. E. Nichols) It is the age of Jazz! A jumhle, tumhle, of emotions finds its expression in weird noises, in blues. We can thank (or curse if we choose) the Negro. It was he who with a sense of gaiety ,took Terpsichore on a toot! The result? She has a bad case of delirium tremens. No one knows the derivation of the word "Jazz." It has its origin in the African jungles. Savage, primitively passionate and masculine it formed an integral part of the Negro's character just as certain as did his primitive folk songs. With coriously sensual wriggle of the body he danced it. With tom-toms, human bones and various other noise making devices he played it. Gradually it escaped from Africa via of slave ships to New Orleans, where it definitlly established a foothold, stole triumphantly to Chicago, finding access to black belt and made its way into the gaudy resorts of New York's tenderloin.Jazz caught the fancy of the young, complacent and langourous girls, suddenly became wild women. Amiable and respectable fellows suddenly became wild men. The dance was on but the joy was unrefined. Barrels, dishpans, whistles, washboards, kettles and bottles all found a new use as instruments of torture and if these were not enough, in-tricks with moaning saxaphones and blatting, slidey trombones. This dance, which was a new sensation to the feet, finally spread to the shoulders, arms, chest, hips and head. The Jazz music had resurrected the spirit of St. Vitus. People suddenly developed an amazing ability to trans-fo rm themselves into jelly. Such extraordinary bodily expressions attracted sedate dodoes who were comfortably resting on the shady side of "All the world is a stage and all the inhabitants actors." You,! the mid-year students, have taken a great step, which you shall never regret, towards the beaming lights of success on this great stag of life, by registering at Weber and forming a companionship with us, your fellow students, so that you might prepare your way for future life. Life's free agency often brings doubts. Some High Schools are looked to as halls of pleasure, other High Schools as halls of learning. Upon the completion of your grade school education, perhaps, you were confronted by a problem, as to whether this High School or that school or still another High School would best prepare you for future life. We fell justified in stating that you surely have not made any mistake in choosing Weber as the school which you feel wall best qualify you for the future, because we have a thorough knowledge of the courses and systems used in educating the students. Weber furnishes socials, such as dances, class parties, football, basketball and baseball games, from which you derive pleasure freely, making the daily lessons less burdensome. Weber's school system is booming up. Our enrollment has doubled over that of four years ago. You, the mid-year students, have made it possible. To the class of "23" we feel that we owe allegiance, because of their enrollment. If visitors should behold a Freshman class meeting it would surely be true that they would think it was the student body, in session. The Freshmen class enrollment is large. Years ago the student enrollment was small. May Weber's growth continue are our hopes and may the class of "24" overwhelm the 500 mark. PROF TANNER ON BASKET BALL Considerable! stir was caused in assembly by Brother Tanner's statement that two twins were to be born in the halls of Weber during the Basketball game between Weber and Davis. Brother Tanner, ever behind the Basketball team, delivered an arousing talk. The twins that were to be born were Miss "Victory" and Mr. "Defeat." Surnames, as a rule, differ, but Christian names, if twins, should be alike, but never mind, let it pass by your notice this time, so as to serve the occasion. "Weber made a bid on twin "Victory," Brother Tanner explained, "but the Davis High School unwilling to take the twin "Defeat" are planning on taking "Victory" in the basketball game,'' said Brother Tanner. The basketball game resulted in Davis grasping the fairest twin, although, as Coach Male Watson said, "the Davis squad was undobutedly lucky, while our men were unlucky." THE PRODIGAL SON REVISED A certain man had two sons; and they were related to the second degree of consanguinity. And they lived together with their father in P. V. And the younger son said unto his father: "Give to me my share of the inheritance that I may go out into the world and make my fortune in oil stock." And the father, whose name was Vanilla, meaning everything extracted from the bean, obeyed. And the younger son departed on the 4:15. And he., came unto the city and spent his substance in riotous living and not sundaes. And it came to pass that he went broke. And he wept, saying: "Also I have not the glistering wherewithal to eat. Neither have I sufficient jack to procure even a prune sandwich. Woe is me. I will arise and go unto my father and he will give me a place in his house as a stable man." And his father saw him while he was yet a great way off and he ran out to meet him. And when he cauie nigh unto him he slipped on a banana peel and fell on his neck, weeping for joy. And he embraced him. And he took him unto the house and called the servants, saying: "Bring forth the Ford." And they brought forth the Ford and the father placed his son therein, for he was exceedingly glad. And he took him into the parlor and placed a Jazz record upon phonograph.And the elder son was returning from his labor in the fields. And when he drew night unto the house he heard the Jazz record playing.And he called a servant unto him and said: "Why is this jollification?" And the servant replied: "Your brother hath returned." "Therefore your father rejoiceth, and I go forth to kill the fatted calf." And the elder son became exceedingly wrath and called his brother and father anthropophagous incubi or words to that effect. But the father called the janitor who smote the elder son upon the nasal protuberance and shut him up n th'e chicken coop And the rejoicing continued. Arnold Incstone. BOYS' CHARACTER BALL HAS BEEN POSTPONED Prevailing Health Conditions Forces Students to Call Off All Dances Much was the students remorse when they heard that the long expected "Boys Character Ball" had been postponed because of the prevailing health conditions. On Friday afternoon, a few hours before the dance, we received notice from the Ogden City Board of Health recommending that we do not have a dance on that evening. A special Board of Control meeting was called and after much discussion the following motions were adopted: "If the Boys' Character Ball was postponed that the student body be responsible for all debts incurred by the Boys' Association because of the postponement, and also that the Boys' Association be given the first dance after the ban was removed. In view of the prevailing health conditions the dance scheduled for January 30th be postponed." This action was taken to safeguard the health of the students. Weber was the first institution to adopt these measures but a few days following ban on all public gatherings was declared. There was much dissatisfaction shown among the students when the action of the Board was first heard, but after giving the situation an unbiased consideration we feel that the wisest action was taken. The Boys' Association will give their dance immediately after the ban is lifted. It will be the biggest, beautifullest, besttest, etc., etc., dance of the season, so wait, watch and safeguard your health. The following letter wras received by the Boys' Association recently: Ogden, Utah. Dear Boys: We, the mennbers of the Girls' Association, feel that it is fitting and proper to compliment you about the growth of your organization. Confidentially, we had almost given up hope that the Weber boys would ever wake up, but now we believe that they are at least roused. Hope lessly we gave party after party, oh, yes dance after dance, in a vain at tempt to gain your interest. After all this, your appreciation of our ef forts in decorating and entertaining was as slight as well as the space we have in the halls. In spite of these faults the Girls' Association has decided to forgive the boys. We appreciate the efforts shown and believe that through hard work your organization will grow as ours has. We would advise you not to take things in a minor key, as heretofore, for we know that "Chivalry is not dead," and never could be at Weber. The girls will help to make your organization a -success, so if you know your best friends, treat them right. Sincerely, The Girls' Association. PRIMITIVE HUMOR illie had swallowed a penny and his mother was in a state of alarm. She called to her sister in the next room to call the doctor. The terrified boy looked up imploringly: "No, mama," he interposed, "send for the minister." "The minister, why the minister?" "Because papa says he can get money out of anybody." Witless "Who is this Mr. Less who advertises so much?" asked the dear old lady. "And he seems to deal in everything, too! First it was "Eat Less Bread,' now it's 'Use Less Gas!"
