Show TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1921 THE WEBER HERALD BOYS LECTURED BY MRS. LLOYD Male Members Are Given Good Talk on Chivalry Thursday Mrs. Jennie H. Lloyd, the College Matron, talked to the boys Thursday November 17 in substance as follows: I want to congratulate the young people of Weber for the opportunity of attending this school. X know of no institution in all the world where a better spirit prevails or where there are in attendance more superior boys and eirls. I sometimes feel, however, as 1 nass through the halls that there Should be more knightly chivalry manifested in your attitude toward the young ladies. Yon cannot afford, in the slightest degree, to lower your1 Ideals of womanly dignity, nor dull the bright armour of their innate modesty. I realize the tendencies toward familiarity are but indiscretions that you may think at times are invited, but remember boys that you are the stronger sex and it was divinely ordained that you should stand at the head. We look to you for protection and expect from you the kingly courtesies that should be extended to queens intended to reign by your side. When I see these thoughtless familiarities that have a tendency to mar and cheapen exalted womanhood, my !oul cries out, "Don't! Don't! and as a mother I want to tell you why. Long ago in the spirit world you graduated with honor from the college of Eternity and waited with eagerness for your promotion into the great university of mortal life. The welcomed opportunity was given under the most desirable conditions, and to you was given in embryo, the exalted privilege of carrying on this wondrous stream of life. There was placed in your keeping a portion of God's own omnipotent power, the marvelous gift to create. With this precious endowment here comes the sacred responsibility of keeping yourself physically, mentally, spiritually and morally fit, and upon the foundation of the laLter, rests all J;he other requisites. Many a lad, standing at the thresh-hold of young manhood, when the physical and mental disturbances indicated by the uncertain voice, and irregu lar development of the nervous forces, but vaguely and indistinctly interprets these new and strange emotions- How often those who guide him in youth have failed to carefully impress him with the sacred truth that this force now struggling or recognition is the greatest gift of God to man, the wondrous power to produce life, nor is he always taught to appreciate the sublime responsibility that this gift implies, that coming generations are looking tu him for that preparation of mind and soul that will give to them an unblemished inheritance. One prominent physician likens it unto an angel's gift, not for one's self but for others, and relates a parable of two promising young men who received this precious endowment. The first i regarded it as his own and used it for (selfish pleasure. The lustrous eyes igrew dim, the alert mind lost much of Its vigor and the once buoyant spirit 'lagged 'neath its burden of darkened feuilt. But saddest of all when the height of maturity was reached and the bright robed angel of his dreams called for that holy love, there echoed he hideous mocking of his unclean aoul, as out of the dim distance there came the sobs of a broken-hearted wo-man and the weeping of little children, mourning the loss of a clean noble birthright. The other accepted his gift as a glorious endowment from the Great Creator, the right of potential fatherhood. Encasing It within an armour Vf pure, uplifting thoughts, guarded by the strong sentinel a clean controlled mind he went forth to conquer self. When the powers of physical resistance kwere lulled to slumber, and the siren aang her most bewitching .strains, there arose In his unstained mind a vision of holy love. From out the rosy mists, a form like one divine modestly bent and whispered how: "I have kept myself pure for you," and exultantly he answered, "And I for you." Then floated indistinctly, like heavenly music, the happy voices of angel children rejoicing In the anticipation of a pure exalted birthright. The girls whom you sometimes regard so lightly are to share equally with you this highest of all honors of becoming pnrtners with God, in preparing tabernacles for these choice immortal souls. Are you willing that the queen of your dreams, the mother of your children, shall diminish the dignity of her calling, or dull the bright luster of her chastity by the careless handling and promiscous car-resses of other young men? Then it Is fair that you should mar the maidenly modesty of some other young man's choice? To the Latter Day Saint boy who Is taught these high moral standards must the world look for in regeneration. Statistic show that 450,000 joung men, reach maturity every year in the United States. From this vast army of vigorous manhood representing the finest homes and best environment in world. 250,000 nearly 60 percent, join the ranks of the unclean. Why such a tragedy? The reply-truly stated Ignorance. Our church schools have been instituted that our youth may be properly taught sacred moral and spiritual truth and to you who have these superior advantages are heavenly hosts looking with eager anticipation that you may not only carry on the great stream of life pure and unadulterated from the fountain of righteousness but this glorious work of the .kingdom shall bo born off triumphantly, that earthly nultitudes, as well as generations yet unborn shall rise up and call you blessed. JENNIE H. LLOYD. Mrs. Lloyd's listeners illustrated Wir appreciation for the motherly council given, with a hearty applause We hope that this will not be the extent of their gratitude, but that it will be shown in their future actions, at schools, and in whatever phase of life the principles can be applied. TOUCHING. At first she touches up her hair To see if It's in place. And then, with manner debonair, She touches up her face. A touch of curls behind her ear, A touch of cuffs and collars. And then she's off to Daddy dear. To touch him for len dollars. Punch Bowl. BRIEF MENTION Miss Ema Jarobs spent the weekend wiiii her sister, Vilate, who is attending the Brigham Young University at Provo, Utah. Misses Melba Douglass, Vilate Jacobs and Olive and Annie Randall, former students of Weber, are attending the B. Y. U., this year. Coach Watson is now the father of a bouncing baby girl. Treat us to cigars, " Male." Miss Alice Tippetts returned to Og-den Wednesday, after a stay with her parents at Preston, Idaho. Paul Cragun, a member of the graduating class of 1920, left November 3, to fill a mission for the L. D. S. Church in Australia. He will reach his destination the latter part of the month. We are pleased to hear that Paul Cragun, last year a graduate of Weber's high school, has departed to fill a mission in Australia. That is not to say that we are happy that he has left us, but that we rejoice to know that he has gone to further the works of the Gospel. He was scheduled to depart Thursday, Novemberrd. It requires twenty-one days of steady travel to reach Australia from this locality. We wish Mr. Cragun all the joys of a safe and pleasant trip. The young man states that he will be absent from two to three years, but that he expects to return to his old alma mater to further his education. Mr. Cragun came to visit Weber two days before departing. PLAYS OF THE MONTH. Walt Price in "The Blotter," a splashy stagger in two bottles. Fred Hinckley in "The Blue Limousine." An entwining drama. We would like to have Ken Anderson go on a watermelon tour with us. The way he hangs on to the oval pleases us. From the way he treated the Tigers, we would say the farmers down in Utah county heaved a sigh of relief when he left. Cyril has bought a new red tie. We are the heir to a rich uncle whom we would like to see try to stop Wallace Morris in a football game. WHAT THEY SAY, Chick Crawshaw "Laugh and world laughs with you." the "Monk" Halliday " !?? !xxx ! !." "Mighty" Porter "The same tun you, yuh big Swede." "Doug." "Hi, Flanagan. Rose "Ofisher! Erashe 'at dog from muh view!" Tom Hickman weeps because his ab sorbing organ is ruined for at least a week. ;00 SOCIETY FACULTY LADIKS' CLUB MEETS The women of the faculty of Weber Normal College held their first meet ing of the year at the home of Mrs. Joel E. Ricks on November 4th. Miss Caroline Parry was elected president, to succeed Mrs. Kicks. Other officers chosen were Miss Betty Noble, vice president. Mrs. Edith Koh-ler, secretary, and Miss Hazel Mills, treasurer. It was decided, the club, which in cludes wives of faculty members, as well as instructors of the gentler sex should meet monthly. The study of the short story and of modern tend enciea in poetry was adopted as the program of the year, and committees were appointed to direct this work. Following the business meeting, a dainty luncheon was served by the hostess. She was assisted by her sister, Mrs. Morrell. The next meeting will be held on December 1 at the Weber Normal col lege. ENJOYABLE DANCE AT WEBER. A dance, given in honor of the We ber college and L. D. S. U. football teams, was held in the Weber assem blv hall, Thursday, November 1 0. Owing to a football game played in the afternoon, in which Weber was victorious, the students were in high spirits and ready for a jolly time. It seems strange that there were more boys than girls in attendance "What's the trouble, boys?" Although this condition existed, everyone had an enjoyable time; even the L. D. B. men who remained at the dance. ENJOYABLE DANCE filVEN BY STUDENT BODY. A dance, given in honor of the Weber college and L. D. S. University football teams, was held in the Weber assembly hall Thursday evening, November 10. Owing to a football game, played in the afternoon. In which Weber was victorious, the students were In high spirit and prepared for a jolly time. More boys than girls were in attondance but in spite of the fact, everyone spent an enjoyable evening. On Friday night, November 18, the college classes held a very successful candy pulling party in the kitchen at the college. The party began at S o'clock and nearly all of the class was present. Everyone took part In making taffy, peanut brittle and popcorn balls and afterwards enjoyed eating the fruits of his labors. Everyone was in good sprits. The fellows looked quite feminine clad in kitchen aprons. After playing a number of games the merry makers adjourned to room twelve, where they danced until they went home. oo EXCHANGES FOUNDERS' DAY AT L. D. S. For several years the L. D. S. U. has observed Founders' day. This year it planned an elaborate celebration to commemorate this day which falls on November 14. This took form in an old time affair in which the whole student association participated. The day was to be opened at 9 o'clock by a parade. After the parade was over the students were to assemble at school where prominent speakers were to address theni At noon a free lunch was to be served at the cafeteria. The afternoon was to be spent in engaging in class contests. A dance at the (Moon was to be the final feature of the day. v The letter Day Sainis University was founded in the year 15 S6. William B. Dougall was the first to conceive the idea of church schools in Salt Lake City. After a meeting was called and plans for such an institution were discussed, with the permission of President John Taylor, the school was established. It has grown to be one of considerable size and is doing much in the. furtherance of church education. ENGLISH CREED. I believe that my mother tongue is worthy of my admiration, respect and love. I believe that it is possible for me to speak my native language correctly, fluently and elegantly. I believe that this takes time, patience and care, but that the end in view is worthy of a great effort. I believe that slang, which is language in the making, kills one's power to speak fluently, and should not oe used. The various classes at the U. of L. have adopted special campus dress The seniors will wear ranger hats and knit vests. The juniors a khaki shirt and knit tie. The B. Y. U. has organized four ex cellent clubs, they are: Agriculture club, Spanish club, Franch club and Science club. U. OF U. GIRLS ASKED TO SIGN PLEDGE At a mass meeting held by the women of the University of Utah recently it was decided that all girls should sign the following pledge: ' We, the women of the University of Utah, resolve that we will exert our influence against: 1. All objectionable features of social dancing. 2. Whispering in public places or leaving before the completion of the program. 3. Defacing public property. 4. Carelessly scattering1 debris. 5. Loitering in the halls, on the campus, or in public places. 6. The misuse of the oiano in the rest room. 7. The vulgar use of cosmetics. 8. Excessive use of perfumery. 9. Wearing of dresses immodestly low or immodestly short. 10. Wearing of party clothes to school. ' 11. Wearing of low shoes in cold weather. 12. Going through town without hats. 13. The wearing of high-heeled shoes and tight clothing. 14. Loud laughing and talking. 15. Gossip and the use of slang. 16. Mid-week social functions. 17. The eating of luncheons in other places than the cafeteria. 18. The use of tobacco and the un seemly familiarity on the part of young men. 19. The use of tobacco by women, ft devolves u;ion women to maintain the moral standard of the race. THE "HELLO" HABIT Have you the "hello" habit? It is not particularly our own, but it is one distinctly common to most western campuses. Symptoms are a smile and the one word "hello," emitted when passing a fellow student on the cam pus. What better way is there of getting acquainted? Don't feel that because you came from some other town, some other state, or some other nation, that you are not one of us. Forget that backhomelshness which ties you down to sullen thoughts of what-used-to-be, Live in the present and enjoy life on the campus. Greet your mates with a hearty "hello," and watch the results. Don't deal out a miserly growl, a mumbled grunt, but a real southwestern "hello!" You might smile, too. It's the "hello" habit. It's catching. It's enlivening. But you'll like it. Ex. HAVE YOU NOTICED TRACY'S NEW PIN? Jos. Jarvis recently met Aaron Tracy, former student body president, and gave him a "Y" student body pin. Mr. Tracy had failed to get one through oversight. Ex. The L. D. S. University has formulated a new devotional schedule somewhat along the line of the one suggested in the last issue of the Herald. (This was, however, made in ignorance of our mild suggestions.) The schedule promises to give good results. It is as follows: Monday General announcements and other business. Tuesday Readings from oral expression department. Wednesday Speeches from public speaking department. Thursday Student association pro grams. Friday General announcements and rallies. PERSONAL, Handsome young man, going under the name of Melbourne Douglas, de sirous of taking lessons in measuring ribbon, picking cherries, etc. Young girl instructor preferred. Signed, M. D We would like to know why Leon asked those nice young girls to meet him in the Acorn room recently. 'Fess up, Leon, and tell us. It looks mighty suspicious. Miss Oberhausley is known to have been a guest at an auto party on two different occasions lately. Once in company with Mr. Melbourne Douglas and again with Mr. Frank Douglas and Hugh Taylor. We would like to know how you do it, Miss Oberhausley. Do tell us. Signed, the Girls. A VITAL QUESTION-If Mrs. Douglas wasn't married would Wallace Budge? It is reported that Prof. ("Ernie") Wilkinson "steps" the young lady members of the faculty. That so, "Ernie" ? Bud 5?tuart: "I've an awful cold in my head." Afton Petty: -'Well, that's something."

"This cuts quite a figure," said the censor as he removed a close up from the bath room scene. "This," said the goat, as he turned from the tomato can and began on the broken mirrow, ' this is indeed food for reflection." "That seems to cover the situation," he remarked, as the buxom damsel sat down on the fly paper. The stude said, "Call Wells Fargo, I'm in a hurry and can't expressmyself-" Cop: "Hey! Where are you going? Don't you know this is a one way street?" Hugh Taylor: "Well, I'm only going one way, ain't I?" Eve corrupted Adam with it. William Tell set a world's record with it. The small boy risked a whipping for it. The American people extract the juice from it. What is it? If Plato could shimmy could Aris totle? Tottie: "Have you ever talked this way to any other girl?" Doug: "No, lover, I'm at my best tonight." Doctor: "Did that medicine straighten Leon out all right?" Wealtha: (Joyfully) Yes, we buried him yesterday. Teacher: "Some terrible things can be caught from kissing." Leonard W.: "That's the truth! You ought to see the poor nut my brother caught that way." Senior: "This cold weather chills me to the bone." Soph.: "You should wear a hat." -oo- Prof: "This lecture is apt to -be somewhat embarrassing. If any men or women care to leave, they may." Stude: "Professor, can I invite in some of my friends?" oo Board of Control Notes 1 Board of Control held November 3 was chiefly concerned with the organization of clubs. The discussion of the meeting held November 7 was on the annual Football Dance to be held on the tenth of the month. At the board meeting held November 9 Mr. Bush, editor of the Acorn, presented for approval the names of several staff members. It was moved, seconded and approved that these members be accepted. It was moved and seconded that a date be set for Founders' Day. Mr. Ben Young and Mrs. Leonard Wright were accepted as debating managers for the college and high school teams. It was proposed that Thinkers' club should be revived for the benefit of future debaters. No action was taken, however. It was moved and seconded that the president of the Associated Students of Weber should meet' with the Board of Education to propose a reawakening of Weber's band. At the board meeting held again on Wednesday, November 6, Mr. Bush presented two more names for the Acorn staff. It was moved and seconded that these members tee accepted.A Thanksgiving dance for the students was proposed and accepted. -oo- DEVOTIONAL HAPPENINGS As devotional exercises are the principal events of the day which break the monotony of school work, we have imagined that a short review of each devotional would be interesting. A few of those held recently are as follows:Wednesday, November 9 The boy's glee club rendered the selection, "Carry Me Back to Old Virginny." This was the first appearance of the club this year, and although sopie of the new numbers weer slightly timid, their work was very good. After this number Bernard Devoto, chaplain of Herman Baker Post, No. 9, of the; American Legion, spoke a few minutes. Ho told of the Legion's plans for Armistice Day, and urged the students to attend the exercises. Thursday, November 10. The following interesting Armistice Day program was given: Prelude Lucile Tribe. Prayer Professor C. J. Jensen. "Star Spangled Banner" Student Body. Violin solo Thistle Down Mary Fisher. Address B. H. Roberts. Monday, November 14. The devotional was not very Interesting, consisting principally of announcements. The most important of these was the plans of the Alumni association to Interest former students in its activities. Tuesday, November 15. The fifth Barker contest was held. The speakers were: Lou Jean McKay, sophomore, speaking on Reconstruction in Russia;" George Cragun, junior, speaking on "Reconstruction in Germany;" Ben Young, college, speaking on "Reconstruction in Belgium;" and Luella Anderson, senior, speaking on the "Reconstruction in France." Mr. Young was awarded first place, Mr. Cragun second place, and Miss McKay third place. Due to a misunderstanding no representative had been chosen for the senior class until about twenty minutes before devotional. Then Miss Luella Anderson volunteered to represent the class. Miss Anderson deserves much commendation for her loyalty. JUNIOR REPORT During the past month the Juniors have been ever-active, distinguishing I themselves with the usual amount of "pep" and dominance in interclass activities. Thus far the Juniors have ' made the greatest number of points i in the Barker contest and it is very (probable that they will come out win-iners In the series, which goes to show i intellectually at least, that the Jun-I iors are "right there " j With the coming of the basket bail season, the Junior hoopPters have already played and outclassed The Sphs j to the score of 34 to 4.

Most notable of these were "Pete" Couch, Ken Anderson, Ezra Parry, Cyril Ekins, Gerald Blackburn.An elaborate class party is anticipated in the very near future, as soon as the time and place can be arranged. To this end all Juniors are urged to pay their class fees immediately in order to enable the class officers to act. The Junior girls have made plans for "pulling off" a little "stunt" at the cross-country race Wednesday. The details of this are at present unknown to anyone except the girls themselves, but it will undoubtedly be something novel and entertaining. The Junior class will be represented in this race by Grant Lofgreen, Heber Jacobs, Roy Lofgreen, Harold Farley and others and it is very probable that one of these will "cop" the Silver Cup offered by Browning Brothers, thus honoring our class. At the last class meeting, held Wednesday, November 16, plans were discussed for the Junior Prom which will probably be held during the month of March. The matter of class pins and rings was also taken up, and it was decided that it would be advisable to select them right away in order to get them by the close of school. One good reason in favor of this was that buying two pins at the time of graduation (the block W and the class pin) might impose a hardship on some students and besides we might as well have our pins to wear around school. The Juniors plan to give a -program in devotional in the near future and this of course will be something highly interesting and enjoyable. Thus will the Junior class make the other classes "sit-up and take notice." oo Butler Gets Doused at College Students Party Gus Leonard, who portrays the role of a butler in "Two Minutes to Go," the First National attraction starring Charles, which opens a four-day run at our local Orpheum theatre next Sunday, got the worst ducking of his motion picture career in one scene of this play of college life by Richard Andre. At a Hallowe'en party given in the home of a fair coed, the butler is seized by the .seniors, who are her guests, and is escorted to a swimming pool, where he is tied while the water is turned on. The seniors return to the festivities Inside the house, forgetting all about the poor butler. JThe hostess, however, discovers his plight and causes his rescue in the nick of time. Charles Ray, in the star part, gives an amusing characterization. He portrays a football hero, who is compelled to give up the team because of financial troubles, and spnd his spare time peddlinng milk to earn money to pay his college expanses.
