The college work met with small success during the first three years. In the fourth year, however, came success and with it came tin call for the organization of a college class. I'he students selected as the class leaders for the year were: F. Crockett Stuart, president; Norma Hussey, vice-president; and Thelma Stephens, secretary and treasurer. Prof. E. B. Snell was chosen class advisor. The silver owl was adopted class emblem be- cause it belonged to our class of ‘‘wise old birds. Students joined the green and silver colors until it grew to be the strongest and most complete unit in the student body. The spirit of the upperclassmen soon began to manifest itself in activities, the first being a Hallowe'en Ball. The “Hobgoblin Prome- nade —the name given to the affair —holds the foremost place among Weber socials. The voiced approval of the students was, “The audi- torium and halls? —decorated more richly and appropriately than ever before. The crowd?—largest and best gathered at Weber’s hull for years. Admission?—Cheap. Music?—enchanting. In the Barker speaking contest, Miss Lottie Ririe won first place and with it the Barker award. 1 earns were entered for athletic contests but few honors were won. As thospians, the college students met with success. Five speaking parts in the school play, “The Fortune Hunter,” were cast from col- lege students. Others held prominent roles in the “Nautical Knot. et unsatisfied in dramatic activities, the class presented “Safety ir t. a three-act farce, in the school auditorium.

We have gradually grown from lowly Freshmen to stately Seniors and have gained unnumbered victories. Our Junior Prom given in 1919 will never he forgotten, and also the Junior Carnival, which provided funds for the Prom. The senior year, however, has brought us more successes than ever before. We took the honors in inter-class debating, and had worthy representatives in the Rich Contest and basketball. In dra- matics our class lias surely excelled, for we staged a vaudeville show consisting of three lively acts, which have never been equalled. As a grand finale to our work at Weber, we presented “Christopher Junior, a very good play, supported by a good cast. The Class of '20 lias been attending Weber in the years of her greatest growth. We have watched the student body thrive and spring up into a body of nine hundred individuals. And in bidding goodbye to the old school, we wish to encourage the Seniors of next year. They will have bigger; ’ ’ , , ‘es for advancement and should uphold the ideals and standards of Weber, which will never become old-fashioned or out-worn. We, of Class '20, in leaving our school, can never forget the spirit of brotherly love that is a characteristic of Weber; we will never for- get the high aims and standards which have always been imparted to us. We will always remember the faculty. Sometime in the future we will set tin Weber of our dreams: there will be the gymnasium, new buildings, and every kind of equipment for educational training.

At the top of the hill which is called “Success. a purple and gold banner studded with the numerals ‘21. has waved triumphantly through the past year. To whom does this banner belong, tliis em- blem which for three years has been the symbol of victory? It is the representative of a class which has rightfully accepted laurels in both athletic and intellectual contests. It is a symbol which typifies the Junior class of 1920. in every activity, we have always been “right at the top. ' Let us review for one moment the Junior Prom. Can t you still hear the sweet strains from that music? Now as you glance at your programs, don’t strange little thrills remind you of that wonderful party? We are agreed that it was the most successful Prom ever given in Weber, and that it will linger long in the memories of everyone. It would be impossible to enumerate the many honors which we have attained this year. We wish to assure you, fellow students, that next year our banner will wave still higher, and in assuming the great honor of being Seniors we will still retain that spirit of loyally and success. In saying “good-bye to Class 20. we extend our hearty hopes for their Iulure success and we wish to thank them for the wonderful time which they have helped us to enjoy. We feel that the influence that they have wielded will enable us to place still higher the standards of °ur Alma Mater.

Secretary-T reasurer SOPHOMORE CLASS ?C|7R0M the RIDICULOUS to THE sublime” in one year, has been A the unusual accomplishment of Class ‘22—unusual in the fact that most classes fail to make the transition in four—behold the Juniors. Quantity—ungainly, awkward quantity, hut with great potential possibilities—was the one redeeming feature of our first year. A veritable diamond in the rough, as it were, which needed only the past year to round off the rough edges and polish to a bril- liancy attained by few. Far be it from us to emulate the example of others by indulging in vain boastings; our record stands for itself; it needs no apology. Whi le our attainments in social, intellectual and athletic activities have not been of a remarkable nature, we have gained no little mea- sure ol success of which we are justly proud. A roost party ushered in our social season. Parties and dances followed in rapid succes- sion at which the punch bowl was the center of attraction and jazz the order ol the day—or rather, night. In oratorical, debating and effective speaking contests, ‘22 was well represented and while not always successful, proved its ability in the intellectual field. Ath- letics held a prominent place in our activities and was enthusiastically supported by all. Teams made excellent showings in the various sports and were always among the leaders. Several athletes of promise were developed in the class whose work on the school teams reflected credit on us. On the whole, the members of the Sophomore class have made a splendid showing during the past year and by their enthusiasm and unity of purpose have become a pillar of strength on which Weber may lean in future years.

We entered the school with the spirit of work and have kept it throughout. We set out to accomplish and we have accomplished. We put into the school the best we had and we were rewarded, for all our undertakings were very successful. Our first class party was a great success. Our Christmas party was more than a success and was very much enjoyed by the student hotly. The program given in Devotional by the Freshman Class could not have been better. Never have the students been as attentive a? they were that morning. In the public speaking and athletic contests we met with more success. We expect to produce some of the best orators and athletes ever known in Weber. In the girls show we stood near the lop and certainly surprised the other classes with our wonderful dramatic ability. The booth we displayed at the girls' dance was very unique and characteristic. With Mr. Dixon as class advisor and under the supervision of President Llewellyn McKay and Vice President flon Petty we sailed down the channel of progress into the sea of achievement and success. Yes. tis true that we are only just hatched, hut after three more years of gaining feathers of experience we will he able to fly out into the world as full-fledged Seniors. We hope that in the future years of school we may stand as high in all records of school activities as we do at the present time. As a good beginning signifies a good ending, we leave school this year with our faces turned toward our future success. ROM. OF CLASS ’23 Burnett. Bertha Bonham. Clcla Barker. Clarence Bemtl.

Zola Wilson, Wesley THE TOYyN PUMP DISCOURAGED WITH LIFE A PRAIRIE FLOWER DAXV WASHES THE CONNECTING LINK Poofc 2 L « I T E R A R tf Y THE CALL OF THE “SIREN fft I T was I he day of llie big game, and just two minutes before the sig- I-iial for the first ’’kick-off” was given. The ball ground were deco- rated on all sides by noisy, boastful boys, and feverously excited girls. Some were sealed in ears, but the majority were standing like a thickly growing hedge on the tape which marked off the field, and which was constantly being palroled by linemen, who ran from end Jo end in an attempt to keep the spectators back. In an obscure corner, just outside the field. Coach Rogers, of the local team, was giving his players some final advice. “Now, fellows, said he, “if you never win anything else in your life, win this game. Bert, get that ball and go right through, see?’ Ya. Bert, joked one of the players, “jes imagine that ’sweet young thing’ of yours is down at the other end in her big green car and honking that ‘siren’ at va. Then you'll make it all right. Bert Crawford was at that stage of life when he felt that he had lasted of “true love.” “There is only one woman for me, he had told the fellows; and who could that be but the attractively fascinat- ing young owner of the green car with its shrieking siren. I Ie walked with her every day, talked with her every day, watched her every day and was continually murmuring her name every day. At last the game was ready to start. Both teams were in their places. Hysterical laughs, and boisterous shouts were heard from all sides of the field. The signal was given and the visiting team kieked-ofr. Not much ground was gained and the two teams stood at a deadlock. Neither side advanced and the first half ended with no score. The intermission between the halves was of the most ter- rible suspense. Giddy girls were talking half unconsciously and risky boys were just a little bit sorry that they had bet two to one on their team. But the second half started with new enthusiasm and vigor. Time flew last, and the visitors were gaining. They kept pushing, push- ing, pushing the locals back. There was one yard to lx made. In a clear, steady voice, the quarter-back shouted the signals. A quick series of movements and over they went. The score at the end of the third quarter was 6 to 0 in favor of the visitors, who had. however, failed to kick goal. The spectators went wild, some with enthusiasm, some with de- spair, but all with excitement. The local players saw nothing but Coach Rogers’ red hair, which spoke with fiery eloquence the thought upon his mind, and which caused the players to enter the last quarter with new life—with a spirit of fight boiling within them. They outclassed the other team in every way. Two minutes remained to be played. It was now time for Bert to be hero. There was no doubt but what he would. He took the ball and ran. On, on he went, culling his way through the air which was fully saturated with the shrillest shrieks and screams. 11 of a sudden the familiar sound of the “siren” pierced his ears, fhe ball dropped. He turned his head and all was forgotten but the green car beyond the fence. He saw “her” waving a banner above her head and was then brought to his senses by the “bang” of a gun, which announced his defeat. Rutii Scowcroft ’21 (55) WILLIAM BROWN HADLEY—DETECTIVE Hadley looked at his watch. “Eleven o’clock and nothing has turned up yet, he muttered as he started again his walk through the garden. As there had recently been several mysterious robberies iu high scocial circles, this man, William Brown Hadley, one of the most noted detectives in the country, had been employed for the eve- ning of their ball, by the Smiths, who were desirous of being pre- pared in case anything did “turn-up. And so it was that Hadley strolled through the moon-lit garden, carefully keeping in the dark shadows of the shrubbery and trees and frequently glancing at one window, seemingly the only dark one in the Smith mansion. Again Hadley took out his watch. “Eleven-thirty and still nothing has---” but just then something did happen. From that certain window came the flash of electric lights. The shade was suddenly raised and for a second a woman, gorgeously gowned, stood peering into the night. Then she turned from the window and hurriedly left the room. It was Mrs. Smith's signal to Hadley. It told him that one of her guests was a thief and that the time had come for him, the great de- tective. to discover which one of those two hundred people enjoying the genial hospitality of their hostess was guilty. With the greatest caution Hadley began to make his way back to the house. Although for more than fifteen years he had been en- gaged in tracing criminals and disclosing crimes to the public, he was trembling with excitement. Each case brought a new thrill. He liked his work; he liked the adventure, the danger connected with it, but more than anything else he liked the praise and glory that came with each enterprise successfully accomplished, for Hadley was very vain. He was fond of making the boast that no one had ever “put anything over on him, and now as he went toward the house it was with a feeling of pride and joy. However, his thoughts of self-praise were cut short by the sound of voices and footsteps coming toward him Concealing himself in the shrubbery, his revolver in hand, he listened. “George, we can't stay any longer. We are taking too great a risk. Think of the danger. Please, dear, let’s hurry home. Of course we’ll hurry home, but it would look better if we first saw Mrs. Smith.” Hadley slightly shifted his position that he might see the couple as they came clown the path. He was somewhat startled by their ap- pearance. He had expected to find them attractive. Society crooks usually were. But these two seemed like a god and goddess who had come for an hour or so to wander through the beautiful garden. The man was very large and exceedingly handsome. It was not a surprise to Hadley that women forgot to guard their jewelry when that man was making love to them. And the woman—for the first time in Hadley’s life a woman caused his heart to miss a beat. What a dear little thing she was—that mass of dark hair, those large bright eyes, the sweet little mouth. It hurt him to think of her snuggling in some man’s arms and cleverly slipping his watch from his pocket, as he showered kisses upon that wonderful hair. It pained him to hear her pleading with her accomplice to hurry while there was a chance. “George, Mrs. Smith is not going to miss us and besides, we haven't time to look for her. Come, dear, let's go or we might be too late.” They quickened their steps, but Hadley also made a quick move and stood in their path, his pistol pointed at them. “Hold on there! I've been looking for you two. You had better come quietly along with me,” lie said. “What do you mean? Where do you intend taking us?” the man asked, greatly annoyed. Just to the police court. A pretty good pair of crooks you are, but you can't put anything over on William Brown Hadley.” fhe woman was terrified. She grasped Hadley’s arm and looked up at him with those lovely eyes. We aren’t crooks, she sobbed. “Please, please let us go home before it is too late. We must go while there is a chance to--” Hadley interrupted her with: “What do you mean by this talk about going home before it is too late? If you think you can fool Bill Hadley you’re mistaken.” It's the baby. Can't you understand—our first baby, the only one we have!” Hadley looked at her in amazement as she continued in a frantic way: It's the first time I've left him and oh. Mr. Hadley, when I i 7 7 phoned to ask how he was, I found that he has the croup! Please, please let us go!” lladlev let them go. but his wounded pride was beyond healing. Piiyillis Greene.

For the dawn brings Commencement Day. Could I trust you, to leave you. to hold you. “M’ lady Pretense,” by your leave? To hold you? 0 breath from Arcady! What dreams a man can weave!

So we part, as you say, in the Dawning, “M lady Pretense, by your leave; Tho’ my love will not fade with the blossoms. Can it net me again to deceive?

You have danced with me elfin from Dreamland— With the music’s own lilt in your feet; You have smiled at me, swayed with the rhythm. Your lips near, alluringly sweet. I shall meet you clear-eyed in the noon-time, Tho’ your own glance may fall when we meet. You have sat at my side in the class-room, A serious light in your eyes. Do we really know less of the book-lore Than even the teachers surmise? You glance up and catch me adoring— How poorly you feign your surprise! You are caught, little trickster!

Blanche Kendall McKky ESSAY ON HAPPINESS fA HAPPINESS is the condition of mind when one is joyful. Il is that sublime, supreme phenomenon for which we are all strug- gling. It is the simulus to all our ambitions; all good is accomplished, all crimes committed for this simple condition of mind. How unwise il seems that we, the people of the earth, should go wandering about on the meadow in search of the bubbling fountain of happiness as if we were travelers on a desert looking for an oasis when all the time, that bubbling fountain is right before our sight, within our grasp. Children accept the simple things of life, and this is the beauty, the success of the joys of childhood. Well do I remember, when but a toddling infant, moulding from the soft damp earth, pies to be baked in the sun. What glorious- ness came from wandering in the fields in the spring-time, feeling the soft cool clover and viewing the awakening life. And as the years passed on and childhood advanced, I recall my school days when mingling in mirth with seat-mates until the very lessons became a pleasure. And childhood is not the end of happiness. Middle aged people will say, when recalling memories of childhood, “All joys are now ended.” 'I'liose people dwell in dark, damp cellars and do not enjoy the sunshine which gives brightness and growth to the flowers of life. It is Spring. Today I strolled in the orchard. The apple trees arc in bloom and their fragrance se n's the air. I heard the songsters warbling forth the music of their soul and it made my soul glad. I forgot the troubles of life; 1 lived in what I could sec. Today I listened to some music. The sweet strains of the violin, throbbed out like a “God in pain. I closed my eyes and was in paradise. The toil, the worry of life were gone. How good, how wise is the Maker. To make us happy, he gives us not only beautiful things and harmonious sounds but also our imagination, that when our surroundings arc not pleasant, we still may be happy in “dreaming of what might have been.” Thus, thru the window of the Thots of Youth, I gaze out upon the valley of Perfect Happiness. It is a beautiful valley, is it not—wide and fertile and covered with the verdure of the spring-time. Hut could I look upon the valley from the window of Life, I might behold a different view. Those towering cliffs which I now see so dimly in the distance, from the window of Life may appear great gray crags, overshadowing the valley of Perfect Happiness and hiding the verdure of the spring-time. Hut such is life. Each individual views the scene from the different windows of the stages of his life and gains happiness in proportion, there from. Oh! if we could but always gaze from the window of Youth’s Thots! Hut if we cannot, we can at least take the lesson from that stage of our life: make the view appear broad and beautiful by accepting our lot, and instead of letting our surroundings make the impression on our lives, we should make our mind fit into and accept our surroundings. (61) Veta Jones Humi, 3 4 SCHOOL LIFE ORGANIZATIONS PUBLICATIONS MUSIC DRAMA YEAR WEBER STUDENT BODY These changes proved very successful the last two months of school. The student body has thus been able to give $700 to the gymnasium fund. The new standardized award system provided a different award for each year of service in the specified student-body activities. Our awards this year were the most elaborate ever given and have proved very popular. We have fostered more student-body activities this year than ever before in the history of our school. Their successes proved true enjoyment and substantial development to the entire student-body. We extend to tin incoming officers a hearty wish for success and hope that they will stand by our present Constitution. WEBER is speedily PASSING from a small high school to a great college. The school year 1919-20 marks the period of transi- tion. This year the student hotly has grown from 550 members to over 930. Next year high school Freshmen will not be registered. Emphasis will then be placed upon the development of the college. To meet the present conditions and prepare for the success of the student-body in the future, several important revisions and amend- ments to our Constitution have been enacted by the Board of Control. They are as follows: Article HI. Section It. The Board of Control. Tlie president. vice-president and secretary and treasurer of the student body, the president of each class, the president of the school, one student and one faculty member chosen hv these officers, shall constitute the Hoard of Control, which shall have general supervision over all student body affairs. Section III. All questions of finance of the student body relating both to revenues and expenses, including all classes, organizations and all student body periodicals, shall he under the control and direction of a Central Treasury Commission. Amanda Chamberlin Vice-President H. Stanley Rhees President Cleone Lindsay Secretary-Treasurer (64) Vera Malax Vice-President Oa Jacobs President I.kRoi Blaylock Secretory-T reusurer THE PUBLIC SERVICE BUREAU THE most i. p oktant movement ill school life todav is to inter- pret true education in terms of service and to establish a more vital relationship between the interests of the school and the practical life. The student seems to be absolutely separated from practical affairs during his period of training, therefore Iie is not properly fitted for duties of a citizen from the standpoint of every-day life. We break through the routine of school life and give the students opportunities to serve the public and thus apply their school training. These are the principles of the Public Service Bureau which has now completed its fifth successful year. Fully fifty students have co-operated with the PublicServiceBureau in giving programs in most of the wards of the three stakes centering in Ogden. Not only have the students of the School of Music and representatives of the Dramatic Art Department helped, but the lead- ing students of the school have spoken in the campaigns for social betterment. The Public Service Bureau wishes to especially thank the Girls’ Chorus, the Glee Club, and the Boys Quartette for their work. While the organization has been very successful during the past year, yet it has not accomplished the things it might have done if the students had given it more of their attention. Many more of our students could give their services and receive good training by sup- porting the Public Service Bureau. Furthermore, the Bureau could he made one of the greatest forces for good in Ogden if given the united support of Weber students. (65) Ki th Scowcropt Secretary-Treasurer Oa Jacobs Vice-President THE GIRLS’ ASSOCIATION THE beginning of our school year found tin Girls’ Association wide awake, alive to the fact that a certain amount of “vamp- ing must he done. It was with womanly intuition that we gave the first matinee dance of the school year on October 7th. Next came the annual “( iris’ Show” on November 15th, which has always been a mystery to the male members of the school. After several weeks of preparation, the girls of each class presented acts that were superior to any vaudeville show. Of course, all ol our masculine friends were barred from admittance, and we had a very good time without them—just for once. On December 12th, the girls entertained the entire school at the best dance of the year. The assembly hall was decorated to represent a snow scene. Ml those present said the hall was never so artistically adorned and the girls surely deserved the credit for the work. “Girls’ Day,” which was held on May 7th, was the climax of the story. All the boys became worried. They wandered about the halls aimlessly; they wondered which one of their feminine admirers was going to make a “date. The Association, however, in order that every member of the student body be present, “paired ’em off.” Each girl asked her partner and the favored young gentleman enjoyed her confusion as she shyly and humbly asked his company for “Girls’ During the entire day the girls entertained the boys. In Devotional a play was given in the interest of suffragettes and in the afternoon various forms of amusement were enjoyed. An elaborate dancing party was the end of a perfect day. Weber’s highest ideals are upheld by the girls so let’s give three “hip-hurrahs” for Weber’s girls! Kkwktii Farley 'resident Jack Croft Secretary• Treasurer BOYS’ ASSOCIATION THE SCHOOL yeak of 1919-20 will lx noted in Weber history for one thing in particular—The Boys’ Association. Though not organized under the best of conditions and ibis being a more or less “pioneer year, we have carried out most of the provisions of tin Constitution. We have inaugurated several new events in Weber which no doubt will prove valuable precedents in future years. The organization was made secure in the latter part of November when the boys ol the school met and elected officers, Kenneth Farley ami John Croft being elected president and secretary, respectively. I’lie first accomplishment was the securing of a lecture by Dr. Harding to the Association on the subject of Morals.” Pronounced as the most “rip-roaring,” “side-splitting” event of a life time, was the Boys Athletic Carnival. Boxing and wrestling were indulged in by the fellows. Mr. Tracy said the “battle royal” was the best thing he had seen in years. 'file most novel event of the year was the character ball given on March 19th. The dance was featured by elaborate decorations, special programs and the variety of costumes seen gliding around in the “Temple of Joy.” 'flie spring events were another athletic carnival. April 22nd, and a cross-country run, May 3rd. The carnival was featured by athletic contests. The cross-country run covered a distance of three miles and medals were given to the winners. Our accomplishments have not been as great as they might have been, but the organization has been solidly placed in Weber's activi- ties. Let us hope that the Boys’ Association of the future will carry on the work started and strive to make the boys of Weber belter citi- zens physically, mentally and morally.

Artist Walter Stevenson Staff Photographer THE ACORN IN OFFERING THE SEVENTEENTH VOLUME of the Acorn, the Staff has attempted to depict faithfully the excellent spirit and the noble ideals which have made the Weber Normal College one of the most highly reputed institutions in the state of Utah. The staff has en- deavored to show that spirit and those ideals, so characteristic of Weber, in the recording of the activities and the events of the year and we hope that we have been successful in so doing. The year chronicled in this, the 1920 Acorn, has been one of change and progression. The school has undergone a process of cen- tralization of authority. A central treasury has been put into effect. The Board of Control has been made smaller that it may more effectively do its work of governing the students. All things tend to a greater and bigger Weber. In our activities, both intellectual and athletic, we have seldom before been more successful. Our orators, debaters, and athletes added new glories to our already glorious school. To those who so loyally supported the Acorn, the staff wishes to express its thanks and appreciation. Without your aid, the publish- ing of a souvenir would have been an impossibility. We are indeed grateful for your interest and co-operation. It is the earnest wish of the staff that those who possess a 1920 Acorn may, in future years, find joy and comfort in its pages. In parting now, there are many who may never again meet. We little know what awaits us, what troubles, what joys, what new ties we shall make. But ought we to forget the trials, triumphs, and friends of our school days? May this souvenir keep alive those tender memories; may the sweet companionships of our days at Weber never be for- gotten. The Staff. MUSIC Tlirre’s music in llicuir.

While we list enchanted there To the music in tin- air. THE wokk of the Sciiooi. of Musk; during llu past year has been lull of delight and enthusiasm. Morning, noon, and night our halls have rung with music. Hands, orchestras, quartets, uku- leles, guitars, choir, glee clubs and opera, together with the careful training by proficient teachers, have done wonders in stimulating the spirit of music at Weber. The total enrollment in ensemble and pri- vate study has been over five hundred students. The choir has had about two hundred voices, the Girls’ (dee Club an enrollment of forty-eight, the Boys’ Glee Club forty-four, the orchestra eighteen, and band about twenty-five. Through the Public Service Bureau the students have furnished music for seventy-eight programs outside of school, thus bringing before the public talented boys and girls in well prepared numbers. The fact that students have furnished the music for devotional exer- cises is not to be overlooked for it has been of great value in training them in self-command in rendering musical numbers. The glee clubs gave a concert at Kaysville and in the Weber Auditorium. They have also had invitations to visit the Morgan and Coalville High schools. The choir has rendered valuable service in Devotional besides singing in the commencement exercises. A large number of soloists have been devel- oped and many more talented voices are yet to be brought out. 'fhc hand and orchestra under the leadership of Prof. Krncst Nichols have done very splendid work. It was the band that led the students to victory in the basketball game with Ogden High school. Miss Mary Fisher, one of I tab’s best violinist, and Miss Gladys Peterson, a pianist of considerable merit, have proved themselves true teachers. They have helped greatly in making the School of Music a success. The principal feature of this year’s work was the operetta, A Nautical Knot.” by Maud Klizabeth Inch and Rhys Herbert, produced under the able supervision of Prof. W. II. Manning. About seventy-five choice voices were required in the presentation. The accompaniment was furnished by the school orchestra under the direction of Prof. K. Y. Nichols. It was the cul- mination of the work of the vocal and instrumental departments, for all those taking part were trained in the School of Music. “THE FORTUNE HUNTER” IS it TIU E. AS SOME psychologists claim, that deep hidden in his heart every man is a “rube”? Is the dignified “going back to nature” simply an answer in civilized man to the primitive call for the mother soil unstifled in his soul? Whether this theory he true or otherwise, certain it is that the portrayal of rural types upon the stage is noticeably popular with all classes of people. This is one reason why ’The Fortune Hunter makes so strong an appeal. The second reason is that the author, Mr. Winehell Smith, dis- closes delicately and reverently the fountain-springs of tin human heart, welling up alike in the isolated village and in the crowded city. i idly he drives home tin age-old message that “A moil's a moil for a that,” and “The Colonel’s lady and Judy O’Grady Are sisters under the skin. Never in tin history of eber has the school play scored so high. Roth nights the Orpheum was crowded from pit to dome. The per- formers responded to eight or ten curtain calls. Indeed, even after the final curtain there was strong demonstration of appreciation but this kindness could not be recognized, for the rain had rained its allotted quota. The cast included thirty students, the college and the four years of the high school all being represented. Cora Mortensen played the. country heroine with a pathos and comprehension which surprised even her strongest admirers. Her facial expression and appealing voice place her in a class seldom seen on the amateur stage. Stanley Rhees handled the long and difficult role of the hero with an ease and delicacy rare among young performers. His earnestness and natural- ness were remarkable. John Croft won new laurels through his forceful and sympathetic handling of the difficult role of the old in- ventor. Georgia Tate and “Pat” Chamberlin, Robert Newman, Ken- neth Farley, Golden Bingham, Waller Stevenson, William Kasius, and LeRoy Johnson gave unusually strong delineations. Indeed, there was not a part in the entire play which was not stamped with its own individuality and color. The following students portrayed the remaining speaking parts: Olin Ririe, Sidney Wilcox, Flovd Stuart, Ira Terry, Delbert W right. Robert Wilkinson, and Albert Hoggan. Mrs. McKey considers “The Fortune Hunter” thus far her best effort, within or without the walls of W eber. Rut possibilities for the future gleam with rainbow brightness. — Dki.hkkt Vki ;iit Ci.ahknck Rhow n John Kmmktt William Kasic DEBATING Normal College Debates, February 27, 1920.

Tanxkr Okval Carstensen Malcolm Watson ATHLETICS WHILE possibly not as brilliant as last year’s, the efforts of the athletic department have been decidedly successful and have maintained the standards raised in the past. In all phases of athletic endeavor, Weber has been ably represented and has held her place among the leaders of sportdom. Perhaps the outstanding feature of the year was the introduction of football into Weber sport circles. This activity, tho new, proved very popular with the fans and received enthusiastic support from the student-body. Coach Watson and the team cannot be too highly com- mended for the showing made. Tho starting with entirely green ma- terial, the team soon gained the respect of its rivals by its remarkable development and by the close of the season was rated as one of the five best in the division. The basketball team state champions for 1918-19 suffered a set- back when defeated by Davis High for division honors. W eber's loss proved a severe disappointment to all, as she was picked as a likely contender for state honors. However the defeat was no disgrace as the victory of Davis who. by the way, won the state championship, was effected only after a hard struggle. On the whole, the showing made by the basketball squad was of a very high standard. Weber was successful in winning second place in the state baseball league last year and from indications at the present writing, bids fair to supass her record. With practically the same team back in harness and going strong, much can be expected on the diamond. While no track work has been fostered, several minor sports have met with fair success. Several boxing and wrestling carnivals have been staged at which our “pugs' have displayed their wares. Girls baseball and a cross-country run, won by Ira Terry, were features of spring athletics.

WITH I lie traversing of four long books from cover to cover. we now approach the bizarre—the unusual—the uncon- ventional. Rouse yourself; resume the march; the Iasi leg of our journey appears. Review your life! Peer into your hidden past! re you spot- less as the lily? can you approach the Melting Pot with the calm assurance of a blameless life? If not, be sure your sins will find you out. If you are afflicted with a camouflage of false modesty be prepared to shed it now. for in the crucible will be found the naked truth: life stripped of dark deception; fact in all it’s bare- ness! There are melting pots large and small; melting pots narrow and wide; melting pots round and square; melting pots galore, in boundless profusion; from Life's great mixer to the chemist’s frail disolver. But greater than even these is—the Melting Pot! Into this great vessel is thrown, haphazardly, without fear of consequences nor thought of result: choice bits of scandal, rich, rare, racy; follies of an idle moment, frivolous, feather-brain- ed: secrets of the elect, dark and mysterious: the naked truth, stripped of all pretence, yet unashamed; snappy stories; anec- dotes, wild tales, whisperings, gossip, etc., etc., ad infinitum! Gentle reader—in this, the fifth and last book of the corn, we have endeavored to place before you a fitting climax to our publication; something new. unique, amusing, and yet withal, in perfect accord with W eber’s ideals. s to our success or failure—you must be the judge. And now to dip deeply into the Melting Pot and draw there- from Humor, Mirth and Jollity! (IC7) Hall of Fame Oi Here we have two persons.

We agree lie's truly racy. He has tried to do what no one else could do. To round a hunch of ginks. nd put them thru the kinks. And make of each a Shakespeare thru and thru. Of course we're nearly crazy With our brains jammed till they're hazy. Is there any thing that English don't embrace? Every man that ever wrote We can sing his words by note, If we stumble we are hissed down in disgrace. We must learn to make a speech. Write a big oration each, With every word correct and rightly spelt. And altlio we shake and flutter Ami we get so scared we stutter Wc must pound our fists and rave like Roosevelt. Alas! the worries make me lean. Every night I write a theme. I've worn out a brand new fountain pen. Does no good to lag behind. You just fall below the line. And it’s twice as hard to struggle back again. As you worry work and toil Underneath the midnight oil. Dear E. F. student, flow my tears for you. For underneath your eyes Lie the prints of weary sighs. You’ll be worthy of a crown if you pull thru. MAUI) JONES Behold Cora! Cora looks skinny. Doesn't Cora get enough to eat? I wonder! These are Bill and Lottie. They are in the park. Are they happy? I wonder! Here we have Jepp and Cleone. Cleone is a flower. Jepp is a bee. What draws the bee to the flower? I wonder! This hov is Byron. Byron is a fighter. Can Byron lick Ricks I wonder! r L. IT has ijken Said I lint all real men of history have climbed lo fame and success from a small beginning. So it has been with him. From the humble station in life pictured on the extreme left of the above to his present glorious position, in four short years, would be a wonderful accomplishment, lie did it. Being by nature very modest and retiring he hesitates to enumer- ate his countless accomplishments, hut as the record must be left to posterity, here goes. He won the class track meet single-handed, beat Davis in football, and was the mainstay of the rest of the teams. He is first, last and always, Weber's super-athlete, a modern Hercules, as it were. Reason for not win- ning the Olympic meet for the I . S.: herding sheep requires more skill, en- durance, etc. Naturally he chose the most difficult. His name? Not neces- sary. You all know him. m Cast your orbs upon the center picture. Note the angelic expression of the face: the exquisite part in the lovely locks: the air of good breeding and culture. For the benefit of those who did not know him when he was good —it is Frank Robinson, one-time mother’s pride and joy, and winner of the perfect baby contest. Ah. verily, how times have changed! No longer good, nor beautiful, nor a winner. As an orator, debater, public speaker, none was better, but fate and the biased judges conspired against him. 0 how lie longs to be a baby again! Before I continue allow me to introduce the child on the left—Mr. R. Stanley Rhecs, gentleman farmer, the pride of IMeasant Valley. To know him is to love him. To love him is the usual thing for. in all sincerity I ask: how can one help it? Dignified in bearing, fastidiously dressed, always courteous, he has become known as the perfect gentleman. All others seem uncouth and unpolished in his presence. His powers as a dramatist are superb. Broadway has long called for him. Taking it all in all, he really is a nice chap to know. The other bov in the picture? Just placed there to emphasize R. Stanley’s attractiveness. H as Love Passed You Hy=r) = Consult l MM E. • O KOIUi IA V.
