OF EDUCATION Editorial KU,OW STl'DEXTS: In a few weeks we will leave our dear old school for a well-earned vacation. W hile most of the students will be back next year to resume their endeavors to- ward progress, the Seniors will leave, taking with them many memories of pleasant associa- tions and realizations of progress. Much as the Seniors regret leaving their old Alma Mater, they are glad to be graduates of inch a school—a school which stands for hu- man brotherhood and has but one standard, and that is the best. But mingled with their regrets at leaving W eber there is a sense at having done their best, and in doing their best they have done credit to themselves and their school. The students who come back next year will have more to accomplish. Weber Academy will be Weber College, and as such, more will be expected of the students. Xew fields will be open to them ; the Acorn will be a college paper. It will mean college ath- letics and college debating. All these must be kept up to the Weber standard and this can be done only by boosting—not only by talk- ing, but really acting. So the Acorn Staff extend their congratulations to the Senior class; we wish them well and hope their endeavors will always be crowned with success. To the students who will come back we say: “Give to the world the best you have. And the best will come back to you.” 8 Leland Brewer General High School Pres, of Class, 1915 ami 1910.

The law of progress does not provide that man choose that which he loves most, but that by which he can profit. The power to grow de- pends on our power to discriminate between that which is conducive of growth and that which simply affords pleasure. Four years ago a large body of students entered Weber Acad- emy. Xo one seemed especially concerned about their coming, tak- ing it as a mere matter of course. The first friend that the members of the class made was one. who when he shook your hand and looked into your eyes, made you feel the power of superlative man- hood and friendship—such a man was our Principal, W. YV. Hen- derson. Into the life of every member of this class he entered and has remained. Then, after two years had passed by the intervention of cir- cumstances. Brother Henderson found it expedient to leave the school, and Brother Barker came into our midst. We were Juniors, and as Juniors, upon us depended in great part the success of the activities for the school year. The period allowed to get acquainted with the new principal had passed and we recognized a man. burn- ing with energy and the desire for advancement and progress, one having a keen, perceptive mind and a power to do. Two more years have passed and the class is about to complete one more step in their education, they have accomplished one of the intermediate ends of progression. It is with feelings of respect and reverence for the members of the faculty for Brother Barker, and each one individually, that we are about to make our final adieus. And in this, our last will and testament, we leave to them our respect and love. In the course of our progression in school we have come in con- tact with other classes—composed of individuals against whom we must strive for class honors. The class of '16 have met as their opponents in many a contest, the class of '17. The class of '17 were made to feel in their Freshman year that they were Freshmen, and a great deal of the “fighting spirit was brought into use for that reason between the class '16 and the class '17. But by way of ex- planation for the feelings the Juniors believe have always existed between the two classes, we would say that we suffered the same An Revoir to our Alma Mater Continued fate at the hands of our elder classmen and that it is the common lot of all. Therefore in this, our last will and testament, we. the class of K . do bequeath to the class of '17 in all good feeling, the right to make it lively for their under classmen and also the one great privilege we have heretofore enjoyed—that of sitting on the front seats in devotional. When we were Juniors a class came into school which made an impression not only in numbers but in their capacity for work. Our lespect for this class has ripened into admiration for our achieve- ments and we wish that they may have power of discrimination in their undertakings and also the power to work under wise direction. In this, our last will and testament, we leave to them the task of en- livening school activities. Let your endeavors be within the school, for on you depends the success of the activities. Then to those little ones whom we have guarded as an older brother, we leave the right to assume the attitude of dignified Sophomores ignoring the fact that you “know not” and assuming that vou know. Then, in parting from our dear old Weber, we feel that our hearts must not be our guide. The call of higher education takes us from the school we love and makes us realize that it is not that which we desire as much as it is that which is best for us that we seek for. We reverence the educational as well as the moral stand- ard of the school and with hearts full of love and respect, to you we make our final adieu. 22 Junior Notes As usual the Juniors are leading the school in everything. By leading we mean not only guiding, but also attracting. On Saturday. March 25, the class play went to Hooper. The show was progressing nicely to the pleasure of all present, when the results of the Junior attracting power walked in. These results were our friends, “The Seniors.” They were feeling rather happy, and to make a long story short, we will refer you to these Seniors and they will tell you how it feels to have a “teal live constable” after them, and also how they like Hooper mud.” “'Pile Bo’sms Bride,” our class play, has certainly made our class and school famous. We have been to Roy, Taylor, Hooper Weber and Huntsville, and each place it was a great success. We recently received a letter from the State Penitentiary, thanking us for our thoughtfulness to lloken Olsen while playing at Huntsville. The letter also stated that he had enjoyed himself and that since the show he has not been one half the trouble to his keepers that he was before. We feel now that a great responsibility is falling upon our shoulders, namely, that of taking the important place of our grad- uating friends. The Junior class wishes to congratulate class '16 and extend to them the earnest hope that they will be successful in every undertaking in their future life. 23 Some Class We have given this year three class parties and a banquet, the latter being given to our basketball team for the hard-fought vic- tory over the Seniors. 'Phis year we have participated in all school contests and sur- prised everyone by our showing. The first contest to be staged was the class day affairs. I11 the sack rush our husky and speedy men overpowered the Freshmen with ease and won our first victory. I lad the menu serving contest been held to a strict ruling we still believe our girls would have won. but as it was. the Freshmen re- ceived the decision and we won the contest. In debating, our team of Kasius and Richards won an easy vic- tory over the Xineteeners and came up for the finals and made an excellent showing. Then came the most talked-of event of the year, basketball. Our team. .Min.son. Brewer, Linford. Shrcevc. Marshall and Flygare, gave little promise at first, but as soon as the contest began in real earnest they made almost a clean sweep of the series and won the title of school champions to the satisfaction of all save he Seniors. In public speaking we made a bewildering record. Mr. Louis Scovillc winning the Taylor-Kasius medal. Mr. Scovillc together with Mr. Douglas Leishman brought fur- ther honors to our class by being chosen to represent the school in the Rich contest held at the Ogden Tabernacle between the Weber Academy and Ogden High School. Mr. Scovillc winning second 26 Freshman Notes Wo have been working hard this year to gain favor with Weber. In the extemporaneous speaking contest we have won all second honors by presenting such members as Wallace Walker. Derrah Van Dyke. Maroni Allan, Delbert Wright. James Irishman, and Merle King. On April 12 the Sophomores and Freshmen tied in the con- test. but after a second decision the honor was given to the other class. Our social affairs have been foremost in rank. The class parties have been enthusiastically enjoyed by the student body, especially the Leap Year party given for the new students is one that will be remembered. Of course we claim to have the prettiest girls in school and we are proud to mention that the queen of one of the student body dances was chosen from our midst. Throughout the year we have entertained the faculty and stu- dents by rendering programs for devotional. We owe a great deal to our class advisor. Mr. Lardoc. for hon- ors we received and for the interest taken by the class. We have been very successful in athletics, having won the school championship in baseball. The boys have been working hard to gain the honor and they expect to be able to do the same the next three years. 28 Senior Day On Friday, April 28. the Seniors were given full sway and they had a chance to show the student body that they were live wires. In devotional they gave a program which was one of the best given this year. At II :30 A. M. they departed for llot Springs where the fun continued. After climbing the hills, they returned to a shady grove near the resort where lunch was served. In the afternoon they took a plunge in the briny deep. Lunch was served at 7:09 1’. M.. after which dancing formed the chief amusement of the evening. Shakespeare Program In commemoration of the Tercentenary anniversary anniver- sary of Shakespeare's birth the following program was given Fri- day morning. April 21 : “Shakespeare, the Man and Actor —lone Jensen. “Hamlet’s Advice to the Players —Adella Warner. “Mark Antony's Speech —Ezra Chandler. “Trial Scene from Merchant of Venice—Ellen Scowcroft. “Scene Between W’olsey and Cromwell -Douglas Leislunan. “Potion Scene from Romeo and Juliet—-Kathryn Basset Par- doe. Declamation and Extemporaneous Contest Thursday. April 27. the tryout for the Northern division ex- temporaneous and declamation contests were held. Ben Young of Weber won first in extemporaneous speaking, and in declamation Douglas Leishman of W eber won first. The winners represented the Northern division in the State Meet. May 12. and each succeeded in taking second place in the state finals. 29 The Rich Contest Weber again showed her superiority in intellectual contests when Ben Young, a Senior, and Louis Scoville, a Sophomore, won first and second prizes respectively, in the fourth annual Rich Oratorical con- test held in the Tabernacle on April 10. Douglas Leishman. a Sophomore, was the other contestant for Weber, and though he was not successful in winning a prize, he did honor to Weber bv the excellent effort he made. “World Wide Reace was the subject of both prize winners, and each handled the subject from a different standpoint. Mr. Irishman's subject was. A Practical Substitute for War. Our contestants were commended by the judges for their choice of material, thought and excellent delivery. Perhaps all of these students will be back next year and repeat this year's triumph. 31 The Public Service Bureau Many things have met their alpha and omega during the 1915- ;6 school years. The Public Service Bureau. however, has expe- rienced only its infancy. 'J'he field of activity is so broad that it is impossible to touch all branches of work in one year or two. Con- sequently many possible opportunities have not been developed. The work, however, has been on a broad scale. The employment agency of the Public Service Bureau has made it possible for several students to gain an education who would otherwise been unable to attend school. The athletic committee is responsible for many of our mid year Freshmen. The efficiency committee has been work- big during the entire year and the program committee, with the co-operation of the student body, has furnished amusement for the people in nearly every ward in the city. 'l'he association, however, is not only for the amusement of other people: the main work is to give students practical experience in their respective lines of work. This has been accomplished dur- ing the present year. The experience given to some of the students of the school was a great step toward the success we have achieved in nearly all lines of work. With the co-operation of some of the talented students of Weber the Public Service Bureau can accomplish a worthy end dur- ing our summer vacation. The best means of advertising our school is l v students trained by Weber. With the aid of the students of the entire school an abundance of good can be done by the Public Service Bureau. R 33 THE CHAMPIONS AND TUB CUP Monday, April 16, our debators met the college team from the B. V. C. Did they win? Well. I guess yes. 3 to 0. Our debators were Eeland Evans and Ernest Wilkinson. Friday, April 21. the triangle debate was held, and once more glory was added to We- ber's name. Our negative team, Franklin Richards and I «eland Evans, defeated the Brigham affirmative team, and Ben Young and Ernest Wilkinson defeated Kaysville's negative debators. Three decisions, all 3 to 0. in our favor. In the finals at Salt Lake our teams met Park City High, Dixie High, Nephi High and Carbon High School, receiving a 3 to 0 de- cision. This gave us the State Championship, and the decision of 20 judges out of a possible 21 for the entire year. This year we are indebted to Bro. John Watson, secretary of our Board, for part of the interest shown in debating, as he award- ed each debator a gold medal. 35 l;or the second time in the history of the W’ehcr Academy has dramatics played the leading roll in student body activities. On the evening of W ednesday, December 15. lb 15. the eager audience that gathered in the Orpheum theatre witnessed the best amateur pro- duction ever presented in this town or surrounding country. L-’nder the direction of our able coach, 'I'. Karl 1‘ardoe. the play- ers presented the snappy three-act comedy drama. “Commencement Days.” As the press afterward commented, the players did full justice to their parts and would make many of the road show productions look very small indeed.

'Phis year we had some very promising material for our track- team. Horace Gale ran the 100 yards in 100 minutes. “Concep- tion Lindquist, our weight man. put the shot 2.57 inches. Earl Wilson can high jump as high as his knees and is the best in this department. We had many more in the same class as these and nearlv took the division. BASKETBALL. We now look back to our good old basketball squad. They cer- tainly did their part to place the name of Weber on the highest peg of success. Eor some reason or other they did not get the pennant, but they easily landed second place. Our team was noted for its clean playing all over the state. For these players. Xixon. Brewer. V. Critchlow. Bassett and King, we wish them great success in their different vocations of life as they leave dear old Weber forever. HIGH SCHOOL LEAGUE GAMES B. K. H. 8. 29 Weber 20 N. C. H.
