UNEXPECTED HAS HAPPENED "And it came to pass that after many days it was resurrected." Following out this text to the letter the Sophs showed their resuscitated life by giving one of the livest class parties yet held. We were all there with bells on rings, too rah! rah! The fun commenced with a few terpsichorian festivities. In order to refresli ourselves we repaired to an improvised bower in the hall where a dry(?) Itacchanalian Prince dispensed the usual liquid juices. After loading up with all the sap we could stand up under, we staged a hotly contested Yale-Harvard track meet, Yale winning by two points. However, the excellent yelling by Harvard was the envy of the long Elis. This was not all an aviation school v. a s announced where many of the young ladies first learned to fly. A few fellows qualified as the new kind of "Sky Pilot." Several serious accidents occurred thru the carelessness and fear of the novices. All this was supplemented by the enjoyment of both old and new dancer from the old "Virginia" Reel to the latest Jazzes and "Splits." To top it off we practiced our new class yells and Mr. Phillips and Mr. Hinckley please note also a number of school yells for good measure. Buenos Noches. Men who know Quality Buy Here.

DIXON AND SAVAGE ADDRESS DIFFERENT SECTIONS Two weeks ago today the Foreign Language department of the Utah Educational association was being instructively entertained by the head of our Normal department Prof. Dixon. Heeding the request of Dr. Gow-ans, state superintendent of public instruction, Prof. Dixon read before the Foreign Language section his diesis on "The Study of German in Utah." Further than this he was given nearly all the remainder or the time. In fact Prof. Dixon's lectures were appreciated to such an extent that despite his own personal opposition iic was elected president of the Foreign Language department for the ensuing year. Prof. Savage was also called upon to take charge of one of the departments, and whether you believe it or not, it was the New Testament department of the Church School convention. He suggested some changes in the present outline used for this subject and his recommendations were adopted. All Weber instructors, with the exception of Prof. Jensen, who was in California, were present at the convention, and it was their prevalent belief that it was the most successful state convention ever held. Among the speakers were Dr. Geo. Fi. Vincent, president of the Rockefeller Foundation of Education, Dr. McMurray of Columbia, and Prof. Searson of the Kansas State Normal college. The first speaker spoke on the war situation; the second, on piactical methods of class room instruction and the third on literature. Probably the greatest ovation of the convention was given Dr. McMurray when he gave a rather stiff talk scoring the principal of the average school. "The trouble with the school systems of today," said Dr. McMurray, "is that they are rotten at the top. The teacher is often more efficient than the principal." Continuing he said that the fundamental requisite of a principal is that he be a "teacher." Again and again in his different talks he said that the principal as well as the teachers, if they were to succeed "must mix." As the vast majority of the listeners were teachers his up-to-date criticism of the principal was received with applause.The matter which received the most discussion, however that is outside of the convention proper was a proposed resolution recommending larger salaries for teachers. This one subject appealed to their instincts, whether you believe it or not. To be right serious, tho, even the students of Weber think that the teaching profession is the most ill-pnid profession there is, and it is earnestly hoped that public opinion will soon unanimously change the situation, which it can do. WORK. GUARANTEED. HANDY LOCATION. PRICES REASONARTT? CHAMPION SHOE REPAIR SHOP, seo 24th st. JAN. 17, 1918. NO. S. SENIOR THESPIANS TO STAGE "PROFESSOR PEPP" STAGE IS TO BE INITIA-ED WITH ASIDE-SPLITTING FARCE Members of the Senior class utilized a few hours of the Christmas holidays in memorizing their parts for the first production to be presented on our new stage. Class Advisor Prof. Pardoe selected the college comedy, "Professor Pepp" as a means of exhibiting the dramatic ability of class 'IS. The fact that he will be director and that a number of the cast took part in the school play should be sufficient guarantee that the production will be worthy of your patronage. The date of the performance will be announced later. The plot of the play is the story of a college professor who takes a trip to Russia to investigate nihilists in the interest of science. He is the victim of a prank played by a former student of the school and flees back to America believing himself to be a traitor from the nihilists, and that he will be assassinated if discovered. The former student in Russia writes o friend in the school at which the professor is teaching and tells her of the prank and that the professor will do her bidding if she but gives the password of the supposed nihilists. The letter is lost and read by many who try the experiment on the professor. The cast follows: Professor Pepp Dale Phillips Betty Gardner, Prof. Pepp's ward. . Mary Woolley Olga Stopski ....

Ellis Barker ARLIE CAMPBELL GOES MISSION Arlie Campbell, a member of the graduating class of '16, is now serving a mission for the Mormon church in California. He paid the school a visit January 7, and spoke for a few moments in his characteristic, jocular manner. Arlie was president of the first college class, and was also connected with the school papers and the drama club of '17. He possesses exceptional ability to speak before an audience. This asset, along with his striking personality, will undoubtedly win him many friends in the mission field. He carries with him the best wishes of the student body, faculty and staff.
