 6 FOREIGN LANGUAGE The French classes this year have had new textbooks. The first year French Course Is mainly a study of the fundamentals of the French language and life. During the second year several French novels are translated. Even though Latin is a dead language, Latin students will agree that the language seems very much alive after studying it for two years under Miss Lau. COMMERCIAL The Commercial Dept, is noisy with typewriters, mimeographs, and the filing of records, while minds trying to concentrate collect every word of dictation hurled at shorthand students in the next room. Mimeograph stencils for play programs, music festivals, and the weekly Microscope are typed by advanced students. The entire Annual was also typed in the Commercial Department. The Commercial Law course is offered again this year with those inclined to understand the intricacies of business diligently studying typical cases. Business Arithmetic stresses percentage and interest along with useful business short-cuts. SOCIAL SCIENCES Haven't you ever wondered why we do certain things, or why some things seem so Important to our welfare? Sociology, which treats of group life, helps us to understand this. Economics, which studies problems created by man, helps one understand the present state of economic affairs. Civics is a comprehensive study of the how'3 and why's of our government. With ouch a background we hope to realize our duties as citizens of this complex world. HOME ECONOMICS Frightened Freshies are soon at ease in Miss Edmond's clothing classes. Busily humming away on the 1915 Singers, they turn out beautiful garments that make the other girls envious. The savory odors that drift from the lower halls can be traced to the cafeteria where Miss Edmonds superintends the sometimes hopeless efforts of her students. SPEECH The Beginning Speech class has done some excellent work in Parliamentary Law this year. They have organized a court with a judge and Jury and have learned court procedure. Besides they have studied the art of speaking, end almost any day a student could be found in the library preparing a speech. The Advanced Speech Class, which studies acting, has been writing synopses of plays.- H T 1 J.LL
