Through the unity of the student find alumni associations In Webor, a rousing college spirit la boing developed.A college spirit may be developed In two ways. First, by a powerful nd active alumni association, which will use its Influence to turn not only our own attention hut the attention of other people in the community toward our college. This can easily be accomplished by all speaking well of the nchool, by upholding all of its activities. Interests and Ideals. Secondly, by incidental incorporation. It has been proposed that the alumni and student associations incorporate cojolntly to hold property aside from church property for the future material benefit of the school. It will be an unbreakable bond, a tie or a heart Interest between the two organizations. First, for example, each man could contribute a certain amount until all would be keenly interested in the school; secondly, property holding causes the school to become wealthy and to pass money on to the future students for the material benefit, of the institution. Thus if, for illustration, the alumni association may buy one hundred acres of land, holding it until It becomes of great use in the future. Through ihe efforts of the alumni association in the Brigham Young university at I'rovo, Jesse Knight gave $14,000 and -150 acres of land while the association bought 10 acres of land. Now this was done with the aim to passing something on to the students o the future. The first thing we must do then is to boost the college wtih all our might, then we must through our unity with the alumni create a college spirit that will never die. CLUBS. In most institutions of education calling themselves colleges are found numbers ot organizations or clubs. Some are in the form of secret societies, sororities for the girls, fraternities for the boys. Others are clubs for the study of literature, debating and music patterned under a constitution and conducted according to the rules of parliamentary law. It has been suggested by some that our own institution is in need of these very things. If such organizations are really a help toward a better school spirit, a fuller appreciation of the aes thetic, and the uplift of our students, let us, by all means, push them through. It has been found in other schools, in the same class as ours, that these clubs promote a competitive spirit between groups which brings a good result and a real, live school spirit. If these clubs be founded on a study of the fine arts, a fuller knowledge and love of the beautiful will undoubtedly be the result. Aftor viewing these considerations it is surely advisable to consider the organization of a number of clubs in Weber. BAND AGAIN. Much credit is due PtoCmmt Nichols and his band for the splendid music rendered during the Weber Og-den game Friday. In six weeks Professor Nichols has created an organization well worthy of bearing the caption "Weber Normal College Band." Our school has long needed the services of a band at her games to arouse spirit and put pep into the contests. We hope to hear from the band again soon. oo j. 4- LITERARY I BARBERS. As a person of few responsibilities I have spent no small part of my lime in the study of barbers and I occasionally find sweet solace in the fact that 1 have a haircut but twice a month. Although U is not the vocation I have chosen to adapt myself to In later years, the business of barriering fascinates me considerably. To see ;t man enter a barber shop like a lion and come out like a lamb is quite common ; hence, the inf requenry of my visits for subjection, to my mind, is highly distasteful if not at some times meba Trussing. In the fi fi eeiuh cent ui y ha rb were classed with surgeons. In rat.-:, they practiced a certain amount ! surgery thmse!ve while attend ins: to their apeciflc dutlew. A careful in-voMriKatioii of a man of the present day who has just ijen shaved wi'.l reveal the fact that the custom till remains with "me bnrbors. Evn the boldest of us do not ent-n ( barber t-hoD without grim foreboC-1 lop Ings. As you peep in the shop and look .i round, seeing tho other patrons in the place, the barber hastens to ohas ! the look of limitation from your face ; by hmzenly Informing you that you ' are ''next." You mumble Bomethfng and sit down to awyjt your turn while the barber relates thrilling; events to tho victim In tho chair. The fat men ; candy with an after-school appetite. nfrj to you several times shakos with I "Uh-huh. everybody's wishing for laughter while reading the Joke col-1 something to happen. Basketball over umn in a. magazine. You arise haifjwun and no baseball for two weeks." a dozen times to rake the chair and "Well." sighed Hy. "I've got plenty find someone just ahead of you. to keep me busy but it isn't the right About the time you begin feeling I kind 0f plenty." Tom laughed; as a your manly neck to see if you really i senior, it is easy to laugh at a sopho-need a haircut after all, the barber more. But Hy knew that Tom would hookons you to the seat of torture andja)way remember their friendship and the massacre promptly begins. He"gtay by him" in everything. Just as cuts half the hair off with the 8rle-ne reassured himself he turned to his sors imd pulls the other half out with K6ometry again, only to be infer tile clippers. Tou try to say some thing but fail. Finally he brushes the hair aside, places a towel about your nock, hastily grabs his shaving mug und splashes lather over your face. You are, by this time, so completely subdued that you do not even explain that you didn't want a shave. He begins the knife work, telling a dry Joke in hope that it will arouse your spirit. Observing his failure at this he grabs his razor the more firmly and continues. When nearly through he stops, strops his razor, makes a well defined line from ear to ear via the throat route and sweetly inquires as to whether or not you desire a shampoo. You have long since passed the stage where you were capable of speaking so you nod In the affirmative. Then, In an apparently caaual manner, ho relates in a lengthy oplsode the result of a man's recont attempt to evade paying for a hair cut. This, of course, causes you 10 shudder and to feel your lower vest pocket apprehensively. He lathers your head, filling your eyes and mouth and calmly stands by watching you struggle to regain that faint Bpark of life within you. After your head has been rinsed he asks you what you will have on your hair. With an air of secrecy he informs you that the source of the city-water supply has been found to contain deadly germs. He chokes back a, sob and tells you how his own son lost his hair by using this destructive fluid. He impsrts the information that he uses the famous Jones' hair tonic. You erase upon his shining cranium, entirely devoid of hair, and mumble something whereat he savagely grabs what Is left of your hair and pours on a concoction, the scent of which makes you wonder how it would seem to feed pigs as a means of existence. With Ihe aid of his assistant you arise and hand him u five, hoping to receive some change. When he gives you back part of it your gratitude is so great that yon would like to express your thanks but your craven soul will not permit you to do so. You are brushed off and bowed out with a request that you come again. -oo- I Tircs. I When one thinks of ties, he very seldom slops to think of their great significance. They are a luxury, a convenience, an inconvenience, a detri-i ment to humanity, an aid to one's personal appearance, a necessity a.nd a j drain on the family income. The most i necessary of ties are: Railroad ties, neckties, matrimonial tie?, and family ! ties. , What would we do without railroad ties? It would be impossible for trains to run without them. It would be equally impossible for us to get along without the trains. Of course, there are other means of transportation, but all are a bit. slow and inconvenient in a world ns fast as ours. Neckties are not thought of by the careless boy under twelve years of age. From birth up until this time his thoughts are centered upon nothing but things which will satisfy his enormous appetite. However, when he has reached the age of thirteen or fourteen, he wishes to be attractive to the girls, so he washes the neglected neck and ears and then dons a beautiful necktie. From this time until the age of twenty, all his surplus money is spent for this luxury. Then he suddenly forgets neckties, and his greatest desire is to turn to matrimonial ties. Oh, the joy and happiness such ties bring to the foolish young man! However, this joy and happiness does not last long. After "wifey" has exhibited a bit of her temper, the poor husband vainly wishes that there were no such things on earth as ties. People may wonder, when I Hay that ties are a detriment to humanity. After one has been kept awake several nightB by the wails of little "Willie," one very Beldom blesses family ties. Thus we can see the great significance of the seemingly insignificant little word, "ties." Ties have been the cause of joy, happiness, grief, sorrow, and intense misery. Without them there would be little gladness and no sadness; consequently the world would stand still. DEVORAH HOXER. BCRNTtfJHKD GOLiD. "Hy" reflected seriously on a weighty matter; the fingers of his left hand were playing a tune on the table. His right hand wm working geometry, absolutely unaided by any brain power. Suddenly he noticed that the geometry was not progressing, that is, it whs progressing only in numbers, not in correct answers. Whereupon he discontinued his labor to brood over the fact that he never was a mathematician. It having been decided upon his entrance in college that Hyrum Bryan was altogether too dignified, that young gentleman had become "Hy". The name, however, has nothing to do with most of his marks in geometry.

Ify was a good Hport and was admired by mont of the fellows. He was aroused from hia reverie on f he myfteries of geometry "V a riP" nling whittle and the sound of foot- mens on the Hiairn. It was mm, n.s room mate, who bur;t into the room. "Hullo, Hy. Here's some candy I brought on my way home. Whatcha doln'?" "Oh. nothing." he answered very truthfully. "Say, don't these spring days fret on your nerves?" Tom sat in a deep chair gazing out of the window and devouring the rupted. "Oh boy. come here," Tumbled Tom. "Burnished gold!" "Come here," snapped Tom as he jumped up and stared out of the window."What are you raving about? Yes, sir, burnished gold!" "That's what they call titian hair, isn't it Hy ? Only that's burnished gold." "Wonder what's her name," said Hy, waking up. "I'll find out hy to-' morrow noon, and tell you in the cafeteria." I "There you go again, Hy, once more! Another!" "Well, I can find out her name if I want," defended Hy, who had re sumed his geometry. "For the pres- ent, please be qulot so that I may concentrate on my studies." Tom understood his friend well enough to obey without a snicker, and in 15 minutes the two boys were going over j to the gymnasium at Hy's suggestion. The next day at school Hy went scouting around. He usually found what he wanted. After the first class period the room-mates met on the campus and Hy had already gained the necessary Information. "Tom, you know that girl that burnished gold her name is Juan-ita!""Did you ask her?" chucked Tom. I ."Well, what do you think I am? Certainly not. I used diplomacy, Ht 1 least," sneered Hy. "Her father owns a hardware store. Bhe lives three blocks past our place; she Is a. sophomore; she is a good dancer, and she's mad at Bill Russell." "You certainly are well informed. How about her ancestry?" "Bay. old boy. you started this burnished gold affair and it's up to me to finish It," Hy growled as he reluctantly started to his geometry class, , unprepared. Tom was a real student, preparing to be an engineer, and most of his spare hours were spent in diligent work, so after school he went home to prepare a long thesis, before Hy arrived lo disturb his peace of mind. He had been working for almost two hours when ho noticed the clock. It pointed to five. "Where's Hy?" he thought as he pushed back his chair and stretched. "He's usually home by this time." Tom went to the window just in time to see his friend's red roadster dash past; the occupants were Mr. Hyrum Bryan and Burnished Gold, or whatever her name -was. "That boy is a wonder," he said aloud. At supper that night Hy told the whole story and, although it was in an excited and disconnected tone, Tom got the particulars. The girls of her sorority were having a fudge party in the afternoon. Hy gathered up his gang and made a raid and, of course, the girls invited them in. Naturally, they agreed. Hy danced with her, took her home, met her father, the hardware man. and asked her to go to the matinee the next day. "Good heavens! you work like lightning! But this will be the same as all the rest," said Tom after hearing the thrilling tale. "No, Tom," said Hy slowly, girl is different and her hair "This is all burnished gold." "Don't get sentimental. Now, on; let's go upstairs and stay , come home for one night this week." The boys stayed home and, as a, consequence, Hy's father was written to in this fashion: K. University, Mar. 1, 1921. My Dear Dad: How are all the folks? Give mother. Helen and Bud my regards. What color did you have the big car painted? I think blue peacock blue is swell. That Is the color my roadster is being painted. I don't like red much. The man in the paint-shop is going to do a good job on mine. I gave him your address; so the bill will come home. My car was awful shabby red, so I know you will be delighted. It will be blue now. With best regards, your son, HYRUM. Before mailing the letter Hy read it to Tom and received the following remark: "You have an eye to business.""And also an eye to art. Say, doesn't blue look good with gold?" Tom winced a look at his friend and retired. The weeks went by and the car, now painted blue, was decorated at the same time each day with "Burnished Gold." Hy was rewarded in his artistic efforts, although his father did not see the decorative value. Tom noticed a difference in Iv. He got his lessons quite often now. as if by inspiration. He seldom arrived home until twelve or one; and he went out twice a week not with the fellows. The night of the junior prom was a busy night for both boys, however, Hy was more particular and fussy. When they were ready they went in different directions to get their ladies fair. Hy was quite early and, as Juanita was not quite ready, he re- DIRECTORY OCCUPATION ADDRESS . .Courting Nan Radiator . . .Missionary Bob's Corner receipts Coupe ceived entertainment from no u ss 1 1 source than ht-r little brother, who had corn-colored hair now. that would .1 oe gold like Juanita's when he grw up. Hy waited five minutes and her mother came in. "She will be here in a few mompn," smiled he. ( "Yes, yes. it's all right. I like to wait, 1 can wait." , When she went out of the room. Ut- I ;le brother motioned for Hy to come and look at a statue w hich stood on , a pedestal in the corner. The little! boy with cui-n-colored hair turned it slowly around. On the back were sev- , eral tiny niches. See each of them was made by ; my pocket knife. Mother don't know." j "Why sonny, what did you do that ; for?" whispered Hy, getting inter- j ested. "Well, there's twelve. Every one I means a beau. Here oes number j thirteen it means you." and he j chipped another piece off the back i of the alabaster form. "It's a good j way to count 'em up. 'The last one ; was named Bill." Hy sank down on ; the sofa. Number thirteen. Pshaw! And Juantta entered the room. In pale blue she looked very lovely and her hair was more beautiful than '-. ever. She wore the tiny roue buds that j Hy had sent and she handed him her cloak with the sweetest of smiles. Hy put it around her shoulders and they left the house. The prom was delightful. The music everything delightful; everyone delightful; and when the last. strains of music died away Hy thought of a swift ride out under the stars. Juanita seemed fully in favor, but -she was tired, hot and high-heeled and a little angry, it seemed. They had been riding about a block when she said crossly: "Turn around, I'm going home." "Oh, no," said Hy, "let's ride out on the boulevard a little way, please. We'll get something to eat." "No, I'm going home," she said. "I'm tired and if you don't turn around I'll scream. You've never been so stubborn before. I should think , you would know how to treat a lady. ; I want to go home." Hy smiled to himself. So she had a little temper, too? And never hav-, ing gone against a girl's wishes, he i decided he would for once, just to see what would happen. He had heard of "cave-man stuff," but never prac- ticed it . But he decided that he would sfibdue this young creature. "Turn around, I say," she yelled in his ear. Hy grinned. "You brute, take me home," Juanita screamed and slapped Hy soundly in the face. 'My dear young-" lady, this is my car and I thought I'd like a nice ride in the moonlight. I'm not a brute, because I haven't touched you." At this she began to scratch his hands and pull his hair very furious ly. When Hy had stood It as long as he could he slowed down. "Turn this car around. I don t like vou and I'll never speak to you again for opposing my wishes like this," She spoke haughtily and turned her back. Hy felt entirely conquered, with his hands bleeding, his cap gone, his hair mussed. He turned the car around on two wheels and sped back tow-ard town. When he reached her home and opened the door of the car, she stepped out and slammed it in his face. Hy was angry; his dignity had been insulted. He remembered something about, "Frailty thy name is woman," and "Things are not what they seem." He considered the first a lie and the latter a good motto to follow. He found Tom waiting for him and, forgetting his appearance, strolled into the bed room. Tom roared, "What's the matter? Did you have an accident?" "No, I'm superstitious; and say that girl's hair is red!" Tom never found out what happened that night, for Hy never told a soul. And he never told a soul that the next day he apologized (and she apologized). "I was just trying out man's supremacy," said Hy bashfully and Juanita looked surprised and said, "And I was being a suffragette just for the fun of it!" "Let's compromise," said Hy. And they did. -oo- MISSIONARY HEARD FROM Recently a letter was received by Professor Aaron Tracy from Victor Wotherspoon, former Weber student, now laboring in Valdosta, Georgia, in the southern states mission of the L. D. S. church. Brother Wotherspoon is a graduate of class 1921, and the young man is well liked by all who know him. This letter was received last November: . Dear Brother Tracy No doubt you think that I have forgotten my promise, but I haven't. My companion, Reed E. Moore, and I have been quite busy visiting with the saints. I never knew that strange people could be so kind and generous. Every place we have stayed so far, they have made us feel at home. I have had a cold ever since I came here. They claim it is winter, but I fail to see it that way. I haven't had a dry shirt on my back for some time. My companion is accustomed to the climate and he goes around shivering.I do wish you could have the Her- An Invitation Weber students are invited to come and look through our remodeled banking room.

I should like to know how the Weber-iligh school game came out, as I haven't heard from home, so I could find out. Well, I guess you are setting tired of this lingo and want to hear how I came out in my first attempt; so here goes; My Dear Brethren and Sisters: I hopo and pray what I say here to night will be of benefit to you and will be directed by the spirit of the Lord. I want to bear to you my testimony of the truthfulness of the Gospel. I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is tho true church of God and that Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. If I didn't, do you think that I would com three thousand miles away from home and leave my loved ones and everything I own to come out here to preach this doctrine lo you? You all know that we claim that the Church of Jesus Christ was once taken, from the earth. To prove this statement I shall quote to you from Amos S:ll-12, "Behold the days come, saith the Lord God. that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread nor a thirst for1 water, but of bearing the words of the Lord, and they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east; they ; shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord and shall not find It." Now, my dear brethren and sisLers, Is this not proof enough that there was to be a falling away from the truth or an apostacy? This is not the only passage of scripture that speaks of this event. Is this not the truth? Haven't the people been dissatisfied with their religion and have they not been seeking everywhere to find something to satisfy their ideals of religion? My dear brethren and sisters, we claim to have the true church that will satisfy anyone that will read or even listen to our teachings. They are so plain that a child can understand them. It says in Hebrews, 18:8, "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever." If that be the case, these things must come to pass. This is my prayer, in the name of Jesus Christ, amen. Seeing that I have said all I know, I want to thank you ever so much for the assistance you have given me and for the loan of that book of poems. I guess you found it as I put it in your locker in the office the day 1 left. Give President Rioks and all of the teachers my best regards and aocept the same for yourself. I remain your brother in the gospel, VICTOR H. WOTHERSPOON. oo SUNSET. The sun was sinking in the west Behind the mountains blue. The sky was streaked with Nature's best i With many a brilliant hue.
