It was one of these cold, wintry nights when the ice has formed a skating rink for your car to skid around just enough to cause your eyes to protrude and your heart to suspend action for about thirty seconds. Now on t his particular nighty with hearts filled witli loyalty and support for the purple and white, it behooved us four young ladies, by name, "Marg" Brewer, Edna Stuart, ituth Scowcroft, and Cleone Lindsay,- to motor to P. rig-ham via Unpmobile to witness, what was expected to be a lively basketball game between Pox Elder and Weber . By Kix o'clock we had daubed our noses '"with powder, carefully scented ourselves with Ben Hur, Quel que flour, or whatever perfume we fancied would suit our Brb-diam friends, and were f igula lively spea king, spinning toward our destination. "Probably two blocks had been covered when the lights went out. Marg got out, shifted her weight from right to left on the lights, while Edna twisted some wires near l htr ignition. Of course we felt like real mechanics when the. lights went on, and once more the ico crackled be neat h the tires as we sped on our way. Now it happened that between Kive Points a nd North tgden thi-re is a slight drop of the land on the east siiie of the road causing an embankment of five feet. It also happened that about the ume we reached this particular spot. Kale stepped in, our lights went out imkI Hupmobile number 1 l.liili, carrying four- breath Ion-females slid over the embankment onto its side. Jf any of you, my dear friends, have had any experience of penetrating the a tmosphere on you r way to a lower destination you will no doubt remember t lie eternity il seemed from the lime you gegan descending and when you hi n ded. At least it was tiim enough for me to visualise myself as the center of attraction at lal-g(j i funeral. When we finally crawled from our seats about all of our senees were in a benumbed state. However, the sight of a Hearing car convinced us that il would never do to find the daughters of M is tresses Scowcroft, Stuart, Lindsay and Brewer in such a predicament. We crouched behind a ti ee for some time listening to passers by stop and comment, until Kuth became very brave and asked a man with a team to pull us out. With the car once again on the road it was decided that Itulh should act as one light, and I was to lie the other, ot in other words, we were to hold oiTto the door and run along each side of (he car calling, "keep lo the right," or left,' which ever lh case might be. Now. i f you ca n ima gine , t wo very dignified young ladies performing in this manner you can sympathize with us. 1 think never luff ore did we welcome the glaring lights from Washington avenue with so much joy. Tired ind breathless we got i ti tho-'car and reached (tgden just in time to, learn that "Weber played a good game, but lost." -oo U. S. HONORS BRITISH DEAD On OctoW 17 ft "honor medal was!1'10 largest and most important fnc bestowed by American upon tho known' Hilton.

On the same day. the lirftish gov ernment decided to ret urn t ho gratl - tude by awarding America's "unknown warriors." the ictoria Crf highest token. itain s MISSIONARY .

FACTORS OF PAPER SUCCESS SHOWN The success of a school paper depends on: 1 The staff. 2 Grammatical correctness. 3 Interest. 4 Diction. , a Style andi tone. 6 Weighty articles. First The staff must be competent, wide-awake, on the alert and always watching for information that is of interest to the students. The members of the staff must be.umited and willing to help one another. Above all, the work must be carried on systematically, each member having his particular work and doing it to the best of his ability. Second In this day of higher education, grammatical correctness is a very important factor. Anything that jars on the ears of the educated is to hear grammatical errors. They are not lo oe allowed, no matter how slight they may lie. Thjs phase of success depends largely nn,tne editor and his assistants. in correcting articles and in pro,of-reading they must be very careful not to let one pass. To do this it is essential that they know the fun da mentals of English gramma r. The third joi nt is interest. What things most interest students ? Why school activities,, ol" course. Therefore all activities must be written up in a .snappy manner. They must be tilted with pep and the thought made c.ear- For instance, a reporter writes up a football game. It would be well lor him lo use the order of increasing importance. In using this order lie must put in every minute detail, use clear cut sentences, and bring out his big points last. This type of composition holds the attention ot" the ! reader, been use it is interesting. He may also emphasize interest by using variety in his sentences, such as, short and long sentences, compound, com-pjex, simple, and periodic sentences, in gaining interest, vivid detail is also important because it brightens an article as much as the brilliant hues of tile rainbow brighLen a cloudy sky, The fourth way of securing success i, I is the correct use of diction. Words ire the mea ns by v Inch we express ourselves and should be used properly. i ii I t- 'i i iv ( I il km l no H y UUU LI SI I HC. I le must a void improprieties, barbarisms and needless repetition. He must use specific words to make his meaning clear and suggestive words to arouse the imagination of the reader, lastly, he must know how to arrange his words in the sentence. The fifth way of securing success is style and tone. He fore writing. the author must have his material in hand, k now his point of view, scale, tone and etc. (Jf course, all of these phases depend on the subject matter. The report of a class pa rty should be presented in a humorous way: a religious sermon should be reported in a soberly ma tter-of-fact manner. Ho with every type of article, the tone and style must be varied to suit the article. Artiele3 should always be cheerful, and it is a poor policy to let gloomy ijuulities creep in, because they make the tone of the paper pessimist ic. The last way of securing sticces is to print weighty articles. After all the serious side of life is the most important and articles that have depth and weighty contents are the ones that m go mi insure me success ot a pa per. 1 1 nwever. t he writer need not make such articles dry or philosophical. They may be made just as interesting and colorful as the opposite type. We have endeavored to bri ng out .T;:tors ot securing ing success in publishing school ' papers and we believe that, with the amalgamation of these points and many others not mentioned, any paper may be a success.

Break in School Comes as Timely Aid to Weberites at School and on Farms The holidays resulting from the teachers being at the conventions in Salt Lake Citv, were well adapted. While the teachers were receiving valuable instruction for future adoption, students of Weber were engaged in various essential occupations. All books relative to school were not placed on the shelf and deserted, as may be expected, but many of them were on the tables with studious companions. Unwritten themes, uncopied notes and unread lessons preyed upon the minds of many. But with the assistance of holidays, the wearysome burdens were removed from the minds of most of the students. So the holidays came as a timely aid to negligent students. Xot only did the holidays come in handy for negligent students, but they were welcomed by many disheartened farmers- Beet digging had been progressing very nicely, however, although some harvesters had become tired of the monotony of making such slow progress. With the coming of holidays a multitude of vigorous boys were turned loose in the various beet patches. Progress was rapid and the formerly disheartened, beet raisers were enlightened with new energy, to push forward to the goal that was then in sight. Thus with the holidays farmers were thrust on top of the hill with a downward grade before them. With ihe return of the students to school came new life. The old saying goes that a change is as good as a rest and so it proved to be. The short vac at ion proved to be a recreation, although it was not speiit in idleness, but rather in hard work. Students returned to schools with new vigor, life, pep. together with renewed effort to place Weber at the top, where shi belongs. -on- ROOST PARTY IS HUGE SUCCESS Wednesday afternoon the Weber College classes staged the wildest, 'peppiest, noisiest, best "Roost Party" 1 in the history of tho church. Excitement ran high when at 1 p. !m. the college came down Twenty-i fifth street en masse yelling college ; yells, . waring pom pom hats of col-!lg colors and flourishing, for the bene-I fit of tho?e citizens who had eyes, yet did not comprehend the situation, a "C" banner. After viewing the performance of "The Merchant of Venice" starring Robert B. Mantel, the college went to the Wislaria for refreshments. The old town of Ogden had much difficulty in comprehending what the excitement was all about but now that the ice is broken the city is destined to hear much from us about the com- 'ing school activities. Passersby did i wonder exceedingly when they saw a jtable lined on both sides by exquisite-j ly smiling co-eds and equally handsome college men with the advisors seated at appropriate places at the itable'. Speeches were given by various ! members of the company and all ex-' pressed their apreciation of the t rue 'college spirit which i now- coming forward. Plans were then discussed for the coming Hallowe'en party staged "out on 1 lie farm njoncsr the dry fa rm savages" at the home of Gladys Green Friday evenin. The college will by just such activities in the future come I forward to her rightful place in YV-i ber. if they ever get their limbs j straightened out afer "roosting"). -on A Fable wims! upon a tim tber wuz a prate big (in faek a tremn.ius t tod wioh sudenlv cum in renrack with a craw-'dadv b-t he cud rieside net tu riu sew mtierly wit hex t hesatashum the craw-lady war. herd tu eokshklaim t'net Tvich I'oilnoS ime genua tri a brnnncd nu trik holt on you the tod he un & respons sf.z not i sow yu cud notis ut wereupon tho crawdady sioly an-rocbes ,v sayen it the sa m tim yu mil bee bis g but the bicr t hay z the harder they fals hut f-7. sun 7. the era w.ely Ivi loki nil 'f.id tu kles proc ksim:; y -,- th tod he sez tu himself s-z tie tb.s her ted 17. kensidera n;il !;cr then i ihetl ut xv uz. the tol kne; s.; en nu: h i-i ;i:';er a shart spa so uv ;::n -. e;ao-ssl the crawoanv he era w.ia deed au; in k wa rds mri wards re - buoy r--;-Tut w;ehi sax en tu hsell tv ; :J the ted yu Villi! m !':- . -w im ; .-.j -ba Hy nvv form ;i ; hn! i;i kt;l A- u;!u'iv; inink!

Instructors of High School and Weber Combine Efforts At a meeting- of the English faculties of Ogden High school and the Weber Normal college held in rhe high school a uditorium last Tuesday the vital work of unifying the teachers of Ogden was begun. The problem of standardizing Kng-lish, as regards the number of students and classes taught daily and the quality of the work was the motive underlying this movement. Mr. Tracy, head of the English department at Weber, analyzed the report of the National Committee of English and pointed out the beneficial scholastic amj financial results of standardization which have been attained elsewhere in the conn try. Mrs. Newcomb, who heads the English faculty ot the high school corroborated the statements of Mr. i racy and brought out the need o standardization in Utah schools. A motion was passed favoring the pro senting of a resolution before the U E. A. recommending that. English work be standardized in every high school. This would mean that each English teacher could teach only four classes daily with a maximum total of 80 students. An organization of the English teachers of Ogden was effected with Air. I racy as chairman and Miss liula Ward as secretary. "It was designed to bring general problems before the entire group and to promote good English in all its phases, in Ogden. Mr. Merrill, principal of the Ogden High school, attended the meeting and addressed the teachers- He reviewed Ihe problem from the administrator's viewpoint and heartily commended the action taken by the English faculties. The desired result of standardization is the "emancipation" of L'tah English teachers. Each year we publish at Weber, a series of memories in the form of a year book, called the Acorn. . Tn our banner year of 3 9 21-22 we cannot- let this Acorn become a dead issue but it must be talked about incessantly, explained to the new students, vodally and through out paper. The Acorn, if It be of value, will cost money as all good things do; therefore we must get our Acorn paid for before our money is gone. The editor has already asked for snapshots. Now students, get busy with your kodaks and let us see a splendid review of this year's activities, achievements and fun in the form of snapshots. I nnsidprn hlo mm tern in .;n necessary undoubtedly among those who do not appreciate, the true worth of such a book ns the Acorn, so let us make things lively and support the Acorn staff.

Lofgrcen and Christensen, a plan is oeing perfected whereby a motor car may be made to run without gas. ao, it will not be run by steam or juice, either. In fact, it may be aid to run "without anv visible cause whatsoever." The plan is simply this: To have a car with the diameter of he rear wheel approximately three times that of the front wheel. Now. it is thought that a car so constructed will have an advantage over those of common make jn that it will imagine that it is running down hill even thouKh it is on level ground. The competitors of these partners ask, with a snopr, how this automobile will run uphill. Rut that is easy, they explain. A spring from an eitrlit -day clock if provided to solve this question. The spring wjl he placed on Hi- rr axle so that while the rails running on leVo frround it will wind its-if up in radinrss to meet th" emergency of hill ciimbn.E. Th partnTS.
