Mrs. Queen taught two classes of Spanish I while Mrs. Bloom was in charge of Spanish II and III and Latin I and II classes. Mrs. Staby instructed one class of German I. In addition to teaching the languages, the instructors tried to acquaint the students with the people of the countries in which the lan- guages were spoken. This was accomplished by teaching the native customs, history, and geography. At right, 3rd period German class is in session.
