HIGH SCHOOL EDITORIAL HOW WE WILL WIN The five-sixths of the high school student body who did not go to Davis have heard about the panic, and of the margin of eight points by which we won it. This game was with a team which was beaten the Tuesday before by Ogden high by a score of 3z to 20, as compared to the 29-21 score of our game. Yes, we beat Davis, all right, but not nearly as badly as we could have done with the support of the whole student body. T might we play Ogden in the return game of the season. Although the game is on our own floor, and despite the fact that we succeeded in gaining a hairbreadth victory over the Tigers in the first contest, it will be one of the hardest on the remainder of the schedule. We must win every game from now on if we expect to enter the tournament. Already we have tasted of defeat, and under no condition can the team be allowed to take a second dose. It probably would prove fatal. Men have said that the secxed of success is hard work. This applies to basketball as far as it goes. It is the team which must do the hard work. But there is another "secret of success" with which we are concerned. It is the support given the team by the sixth man. This is the magic formula by which Weber will keep in the pennant race. The great importance of this element on the basketball court has been proved so often, and has been vouched for so much by experienced coaches, that it cannot be questioned. The team is working fine, as a result of the good training and the hard work mentioned before. Whether we win the division championship is for the students to say. There is no excuse for staying away tonight. Every Weber high school student will be there. The real test of loyalty will be at the Brigham game a week later. One of the questions uppermost in the minds of the coaches and the team is this : How many students are going to Brigham? Let's shout the answer with five hundred unanimous voices and let the echo drift northward. HERALDS ON FRIDAY In this little old world of ours nearly everything is due for a change. Even our most time-honored traditions at times kick up their heels and run away or change. Once a day the earth changes from darkness to light and vice versa. The editor of the Herald has changed a number of times and now the Herald itself is going to change that is the day on which it is published. Beginning with this issue the Herald will be published every other Friday, except as occasion demands, instead of every other Thursday. The change makes editing more convenient and also brings the paper out at a more logical time. Who's gonna help paint Brigham ? PROFANITY At almost any hour, whenever students congregate in the halls, the casual observer may hear them taking the name of the Diety in vain. Profanity is merely a habit which is easily broken once one makes up his mind to do so. Coupled with profanity is the habit of swearing. While to swear is not as bad as to profane, still it is degrading. It shows one's ill breading and his character is lowered by its use,. EXCHANGES Utah Agricultural College On Monday, January 21, the state Legislature and many state officials visited the U. A. C. They took part in the program given in chapel exercises. Utah Agricultural College The annual Junior Prom will be held March 9. The committees in charge are working very hard to insure its success. Young University The second annual Leadership week was celebrated from January 22 to 26 inclusive. .The foremost educators of the Church and State were present and took part on the program. Leadership week is conducted for the purpose of giving short courses of instruction to Church and community workers and home-makers who cannot conveniently attend regular school. Young University The Freshman class is going to establish a new tradition in the school. They are to present their football men with sweaters as honors for their service. University of Utah The Junior Prom, the largest social affair of the school year, will be held on February 23, in the ball room of the Hotel Utah. Ikti vcrstty-ot Utz J?- The second issue of the Utah Humbug appeared last Tuesday. It is the Professors number, containing complete descriptions and classifications of the many professors found on the campus. Fielding High School All students taking commercial subjects have organized themselves into a club. The club anticipates sending delegates to the Southeastern Idaho Commerce Contest. East High School Booth Tarkington's "Seventeen," has been selected as the school play this year. It will be presented some time in March. "UTAH EAGLE" Utah School for Deaf and Blind The January number of the "Utah Eagle" was read with interest. We can say with the rest, that the work of the Traveling Teacher for the blind is commendable. The letters of appreciation received by him from his students show that they have gained great benefits from his efforts. NEW LITERARY CONTEST Mrs. Flora E. Douglas Offers Prize It has been announced that Mrs. Flora Eccles Douglas will offer a prize to the students writing the best story, poem or essay in Weber. Whether the prize will be in money or in the form of a medal has not been decided upon. Weber appreciates the fact that her alumni are taking so much interest in the activities of her students, especially in this line. In the past, prizes have been offered to students for oratory and debating, but until now no such recognition has been given for literarv work. There is a "Mary Ann" waiting for you in the book store. Don't forget to call. ('Departments MISS BETTY RECEIVES PROPOSAL Weber has a language department of which any school might be proud. There are three capable teacher expounding the principles of the foreign tongue. Classes are given in Latin, French, German, and Spanish. The German classes are especially flourishing. Letter writing has been introduced and great interest is being shown especially by one lad who wrote Miss Noble an ardent proposal. We are not sure whether or not the blushes have yet left her cheeks. She declared that he was just practicing upon her so that he would be prepared when the time came for him to really declare his love, but we have grave doubts. Miss Noble's third year French class has just finished reading a very interesting play. They regret that there is not more opportunity in Ogden for presenting French plays as the lovely court scenes and incidents of French life are most delightful to portray. In all the language departments the students are studying the national folk songs of the respective countries. Through this medium they have developed a desire to visit those countries and get acquainted with the people about whom they are studying.Some time ago Mr. Clifford Doxey, former Conference President in the Swiss-German mission gave a talk in German on present day conditions in Germany to the first year high school German class. Miss Noble and Otto Seifort got every word; the others got some. Miss Noble states that she would have liked to invite Mr. Doxey to speak to her college six but that she felt sure they wouldn '4XnderstanjL Get busy. College, good-natured little Betty is almost peeved.) THE ENGLISH MONSTER It is over, we have conquered Our worst enemy is slain, Now we weary English students May breathe with ease again. For a month this gruesome monster Has been linked up with our fate. In our sleeping, dreaming, waking,We saw nothing but DEBATE. Towering 'bove us, creeping round us Ever nearer it did come, Till our toil-worn minds and bodies Were with fear and worry wrung. When the dreaded day ensnared us We our songs of battle sung, And did lash and cut the monster With our knowledge sharpened tongue. Now our strife and fear is ended. In our hearts reigns peace sublime.But the struggle we'll remember 'Till called home by father time. Madge Campbell. BOYS GIVE CONCERT Those eating their lunches or seeking entertainment in the assembly hall the other day at noon were greatly amused at the concert given by a group of boys. The boys, with the use of only one hymn book, sang many selections. Part singing was the main feature and while the music was not classical nor the boys, who stood in a group in the hall with Andy as center, professionals, the students greatly enjoyed the music and crowds gathered as they continued to When you need something, go to an advertiser. BUSINESS MEN SUGGEST COLLEGE COURSES (Continued from Page 1) "We are very much interested in your work and we would like to see your college teaching those subjects which will be helpful to the Manufacturer and Jobber," wrote J. G. Read & Bros. Co. They submitted the following ist of subjects for the college curriculum: Credit Management, Sales Management, and Business Management. "I put the same question asked me to a few friends and the substance of the answers were as follows," writes Ross H. McCune, Chiropractor. "A good course that will prepare our boys and girls for better positions in the Teaching Profession."A thorough course in Theology, one that will demand a standard of respect. "Subjects that will appeal to business men, accounting, business, salesmanship, and management."I would like to see some classes organized in Physiology, Anatomy, Symptomatology, which are the foundation studies to all the healing arts. These classes so arranged that we could attend them without conflicting with our work." Mr. A. P. Merrill of the Utah Power & Light Company writes : "I have, for a number of years past, been convinced that colleges and universities should give, as the first consideration, a thorough training in the fundamental social and physical sciences, and that this should be done even to the extent of eliminating some of the more non-essential specialized courses." Mr. Merrill submitted the following list : History, literature, mathematics, economics, psychology, civics, biology, physiology, physics, and chemistry, with the comment, "In giving the above list, I am taking it for granted, pf caurs.crO:liat your school will give a strong course in theology and moral education." The spirit for a strong college in Ogden is growing and next year with this favorable spirit broadcast, will see the makings of one of the strongest Junior colleges in the state. MUSIC CLASSES WILL PRESENT EXTRAVAGANZA Before long the air will be filled with strains of old-fashioned melodies sung by old-fashioned MAIDENS with old-fashioned Bo's. Music of years ago made modern by the setting of "The Old-Fashioned Garden," a musical extravaganza to be presented by the music classes of Weber. Already the music has been arranged for the voices, who will be accompanied by a fine string orchestra under the direction of Miss Mary Fisher. It is hoped to give this entertainment free to the partons of the school who have contributed so liberally and are making so many sacrifices that their boys and girls might receive an education.So "The Old-Fashioned Garden" will be an exhibition of Weber's sweetest singers, pret tiest lassies, and quaintest lads in a musical of a new and high order. When you need a thing, our advertiser has it. RECORDS C. E. ARMSTRONG 306 25th Street i liiiil O I A N H Have you read the advertisements ? JUST BALLS Snowballs, basketballs, volley- balls and dress balls whirl and twirl, and fill us with excitement. The snow has again covered the great stretch of b arren earth and big boys and little bovs. upposedly sedate voting ladies, and curley headed youngsters may be seen throwing snowballs. some of which hit a mark that often mutters words best unheard. Others fly wildly in the air and fall in some unmolested spot, while still others curve grace fully and prove the thrower to be a besaball fan. Red checked, laughing students rush in the school room. Indeed snowballs are nature's rouge, and snow balling a most invigorating sport. The student body president announces, "The big game will come off tonight." Yelling and cheerins: takes place. The night arrives. Students come in throngs. A large ugly ball bounces hither and thither ; sails through the air and falls through the basket amid screams and shouting. But this ball; what is ts main work? It gives five already sturdy boys great exer cise and many others at least a little that of caring for a sore throat. Smack! A gray ball darts hurriedly over a white net. Smack! It sails back . Cheering is heard, a point is scored and hen the bells ring for classes twenty-four invigorated participants rush madly to their classes. Yes, this is better than basketball. Twenty-four, almost five times five have received exercise. But what about the dress balls? Perhaps they are the most enticing and exciting of all. "Mother, did you iron my silk shirt?" calls the young mister. Where's my tie?" Which one of you kids took my cuff buttons?" What a nuisance are balls. "Mother, will you fasten my dress?" " "Is my paint "oil straight?" "Make those kids leave this ribbon alone!" Yes, balls are a nuisance. Does not the Miss come home with tired feet and did not the young Mister persist in singing, "Kiss me good nieht?" Balls are bores. Such dreadful bores, but in the long run are not balls essentials of life? What would we do without them? Snowballs, basketballs, volley- balls, and dress balls ! Just balls ! Thelma Jones. WEBER SPIRIT GROWING Weber got down to real seriousness in the Weber-Davis rally last Friday. This solemn rally began with a prelude by Audrey Woolley. Prayer was offered by W. H. Manning. Maurice Wright and company entertained with several selections of Hawaiian music. A former Weber athlete, A. Belnap, then spoke. He said, "Student body support is the best defense I know of. You can compel players to win." Coach Male. Watson, another one of our former athletic stars, spoke. He stated, "I haven't felt school spirit anywhere like that at Weber," He further stated that he was opposed to foolish stunts, etc. in school rallies and that he desired the students to continue in their determination to come out victorious. The band again entered triumphantly and played for us. (Almost too many good things at once.) Mr. Poulter and "Pete" gave short spirit-rising sermons. A rousing yell practice followed. Heber said, "When your knees knock together, it isn't what you call being frightened it's what you call spirit." "Spirit" filled the whole school atmosphere. Did you ever hear a "HE" girls' chorus? Remember! Save your small change. Butterkist Popcorn Stores G. D. W ATKINS, Prop. 410; Twenty-fifth St. 2450 Washington Ave. Ogden, Utah WASHINGTON MARKET A. M.
