FCREIGN LANGUAGES-ENGLTSI-I ST-CE que vous parlez francais? The German, French, Spanish, Latin, and Greek languages are offered to the students of Central as possible choices for Foreign language credits. Clubs have been formed to give the young aspirants of tongues an opportunity to practice and perfect themselves in these studies. The English courses offered have a two-fold purpose. They attempt to familiarize the student with the background, history, and great exponents in the field of literature as Well as to perfect him in the use of the language. Une of the many outstanding contributions of this department to Central is the opportunity it offers in collaboration with The Literary Club for student publi- cation in an annual magazine, The World. This stimulus for creative Writing is a great boon to the serious, literary minded scholar. Olive Allen, Anna Durntiiq, Rudolph Koessler, Hilda Hedsied, Mint-tte Paro, Page Twonty-twc b ai.

THE ADMINISTEATICDN . 1 NX ,,-T ll , WINTER WONDERLANDH THE SCHOOL EVER before in the history of St. Paul have so many students been en- rolled in one high school. Originally built to accommodate some l,4OO students, Central's enrollment has steadily increased from 2,l4O students in l923 to 2,626 students this semester. This increase in enrollment has neces- sitated the use of Hill Grade School as an annex of Central. Nearly l25 first sophomores are accommodated by this temporary arrangement. They are in- structed by Miss Anna Durning, Miss Hilda Hedsted, and Mr. Rudolph Koessler. The school terms l934-35 opened With scarcely a change. Teachers re- turned to renew old acquaintances and establish new ones. Only Miss Eunice Welles, who was married last summer, and Miss Laura Williams, who resigned, were missing. Miss Welles's expression classes have been taken over by Miss Grace Mackey, formerly of Sanford lunior High School, and Mrs. Hilda Lenander is teaching Pottery ll in Miss Williams's place.

EXPRESSION-MUSIC-ART lKE Word Congealed in northern air 'e-and yet tor the student of the EX- pression department that tongue-tied sensation never occurs. Instruction and friendly advice to each individual bring ease and poise. Stage presence, parliamentary law, after dinner speeches, announcements, and presentations are all included in this course. Harmony is essential in all walks of lite: therefore the excellent training to be received in Miss Lillian Knotts classes and glee clubs is sought by everyone interested in music. First poise, then harmony, then beauty belongs as the third part ot this art triumvirate. A mask, a poster, a design Worked out to express innate beauty and personality are a few ot the many interesting projects in the art classes.
