Students who anticipate going to college this year, and also their parents, will find Weber much more economical than other higher instil ulions of learning. The registration fee for the full three quarters is twenty-live dollars, the student association fee is ten dollars; while at the University of Utah, for example, the registration fee is thirty-eight dollars for residents of Utah and sixty-three for non-residents of Utah. The student body fee there plus t In; incidental fee is sixteen dollars. Students who live in Ogden and attend college here will he able to live at home and will not be compelled to pay board and room and other expenses which are necessary when one is living away from home. Again, the standard of class work will be better because the classes will be smaller than at a larger university. Every day the students will come in personal contact with their professors and will take much more interest in their work, while in larger colleges where there are 'sometimes several hundred students in a class, the students only see their professors one day a week ; the other days the classes are divided and older students put in charge. In classes of this sort it is impossible for the teachers to become personally acquainted with all the students and to know exactly what kind of work they are doing. At Weber this year the students in their first two years of college work will have only professors with their master's and doctor's degrees, while in larger institutions they seldom have the opportunity of studying under such high class instructors until the third and fourth years. In a smaller college the opportunity for the development of leadership is greater. The individual development that a student receives in a small college is beyond comparison with that obtained in a larger school. Not only that, but by remaining home and attending Weber College it makes it possible for our young men and women to remain longer under the home influence and this helps Weber to carry out more fully her high class ideals and aims. The aim of the Weber College is to produce men and women of strong character, with a highly developed spiritual nature. Along with our regular college work will be the Weber Seminary, which will give the students this religious training. This department will be supplied with competent teachers, and will be prepared to give ellicient courses in all branches of religious education.Willi these policies and high ideals as Weber's standards, it is our belief that we can give a better two year college course than most large colleges are able to do. Smaller classes and better understanding between students and teachers are our claims. College youth, batching it: "1 asked you to send me a young chicken, didn't I?" Butcher: "Well, didn't you get a young one?" "Young! Say, it was old enough to dress itself." Exchange. A Good Facullv i A school may have all the other requisites for success money, a large student body, enthusiasm, activities, and still fail miserably if it has r.ot a good faculty. On the other hand, if it has a good faculty, no matter what else it lacks, progress and success are assured. For a good faculty is the very best recom mendation a school can have, because the faculty makes the students and the students are the school. It is the faculty that guides, encourages, restrains, and even molds the future lives of the students. When the new Weber College was formed, the faculty was the first consideration. Ar.d now with the opening of the school year, Weber can boast that it has one of the best faculties in the state, a faculty that ranks in excellence with the best of the great universities. Not only are most of the professors masters and doctors, but they are well known and loved by all the students for their characters and high ideals. They are for the most part products of Weber, themselves, and have an inborn love for the school which is perhaps the greatest asset it has. They are such that the students love and respect them for themselves, and not only clo they teach book learning, but character building as well. They plant their high ideals into the hearts of the students, and make citizens of which the country is proud. It is a fact that in large universities where extremely big classes are held, the personal touch of the professor is lost. He cannot possibly become acquainted with his students, and therefore can only help them collectively. It is seldom that a first or second year college student is allowed ti take subjects under the best teachers. They are placed under young and often incompetent instructors. We have not hired a new faculty to take hold of our college, as we have one at present that is excellent. Several members have been offered better positions elsewhere. It may sound ridiculous, but it is true that they would rather stay at Weber, where their hearts are. Department of Music The department of music will this year be bigger and more active than ever before in its history. Strong courses in sight singing, music appreciation, history of music, and public school music will be given, and glee clubs that promise to be of the best musical organizations not only of the city but of Utah will be formed. Already the ladies' glee club has been organized from ad vanced students of voice, and is doing exceptionally fine work. The band will be organ ized also, and a symphony orchestra is planned, the largest eber has ever had. One of the great musical offerings will be the Opera Week, in which "The Bohem ian Girl," "Carmen," and an abridgment of "Tannhauser" will be presented. It is ex pected that these perform ances will occupy a whole week. The students of the vocal department are attempting to raise a scholarship fund of five hundred dollars to be pre rented in the spring to a de serving advanced student of singing, enabling the winner "o go east to continue under a master teacher. Several high class recitals and concerts will be given in the Tabernacle under the auspices of the student body The first will be given by the music faculty, consisting of !W. II. Manning, head of the department of music. Ernest Oborn. instructor of piano, Miss Mary Fisher, violin instructor, and George Manning as a guest artist. The date for this affair has not yet been announced. Students Offered Advantages When the last school year closed there were many students mostly juniors who hail made only thirteen or fourteen units of credit. Many i of these wanted to come back to Weber College, but thought that their lack of sufficient credits would prevent them from doing so. As a result of the recent decision of the faculty which enables these bovs and girls to attend Weber, they are very much benefited. In order to obtain their cred its in the subjects to be taught they must work triply hard, it .s true, but then they will ;ave a whole year in the securing of their education. In-;tead of having to spend a whole year in finishing high school, the- will be allowed to gain their sixteen units in .welve weeks. At the beginning of the winter quarter they will be full-fledged college students. Through being allowed to take only one or two subjects for the period of the fall quarter, they will be able to do a whole unit's work in that time. This should prove to be quite an attraction to some of last year's students who are unable to graduate. We are quite sure that a great many will take advantage of these courses. Football Activities To Be Had Contrary to current rumors that athletic activities will be a minus quantity at Weber this year, it is definitely announced that all forms previously engaged in will be supported here this year. Merlon Stevenson, coach last year of college athletics, is to be athletic director at the Deseret Gymnasium in Salt Lake until the completion of the Weber Gymnasium. Then he is to have a similar position here. It is expected that Mr. Stevenson will be with us about the first of the year. Until his return it is probable that Elvin Wilkinson, a graduate of Weber, and star of college athletics here last year, will have charge of the football coaching. Mr. Wilkinson has had much experience in football, having played on various teams at different times. He played while in the army, and later starred for the Ogden Athletic Association. He plays in the back line. Wm. (Bill) Glasmann, star all-round athlete and football man, has consented to help with the coaching as much as his business will permit. It is not necessary to mention Mr. Glasmann's ability, as he is well known in athletic circles here. Mr. Wilkinson states that football practice will be started the first night, Monday, the tenth. The school has good equipment, and all necessary additions will be made. The iquad will practice on the Tabernacle park, where they have done so for the past three years. It is agreed by all that this is an ideal place for practice, as the grass is soft, and green is a pleasing color to the eyes. The showers have been taken out of the college building, but the new ones in the gymnasium will be used, according to President Tracy. The prospects for a good season are bright. With Mr. Wilkinson playing as well as coaching, and with several former players back in suits, we hope to give a good account of ourselves against other teams in the state.

Senior Tablet The senior class of last year, before leaving school, pledged itself to purchase a bronze tablet to present to the school as a parting gift. Through various means, chief of which was a class play, they procured a large percentage of the necessary amount before the close of school. Sherman Couch, class president, who has been working oi the project during the summer, has announced that the rest of the money has been raised, by means of a small donation by each member of the class. The tablet is to cost about two hundred thirty dollars, and Mr. Couch has now over two hundred forty dollars collected. The extra money will go toward incidental expenses, such as shipping costs. It is expected that the tablet will be received in approximately a month from now. When it arrives it will be placed in a prominent position in the college building. The tablet is to resemble in shape the one bearing Lincoln's Gettysburg speech, which is located by the fountain in the lower hall of the school. It is to bear a dedication to President Louis F. Moench, the first principal of Weber. Below, engraved upon the bronze, will be the names of all members of ClassTwenty-three who graduated last year. The last high school graduating class of Weber is to be heartily congratulated for its excellent efforts. Walson-Flygare Hardware Co.
