LANGUAGES AND LIBRARY: CLeft to rxghtj-Catherine Baker, Mary Helen McCrea fHead Librarianj, Elizabeth Stannard, Charles d'Urbal, R. G. Ferrer, Mabel Pope, Ethel K. Hummel, Helen L. Dean fLanguage Headj, Marie Emma Sturow Languages Foreign languages aim to help our young people to have a better understanding of four great peoples-the Romans, the French, the Spanish, and the Germans-peoples who are a part of America's past and present. The students become familiar with the music, songs, dances, politics, legends, and literature of these nations. This familiarity helps them to solve presentfday needs-the need for clearer comprehension of what they read in newspapers, magazines, and books, and what they hear over the radio and see in the movies, the need for a better command of Words in talking with others, an ability gained through a more colorful vocabularyg and the need for a more symf pathetic understanding of other races and peoples. The department, through its three clubs, also strives to encourage creative ability, and provides an opportunity for making friends and developing responsibility and leadership. Library The library collection contains more than 12,000 volumes, subscribes to over 50 magazines, and has a circulation of over 80,000 books a year. The library is also very fortunate in having a splendid collection of Northwest material established by the gift of the graduating class of june, 1937. Several hundred books and pamphlets now make up this collection. These books are shelved in the periodical room east of the main library and are in use daily. The library is open each day for use by students and teachers for reading and for reference. The heaviest use is during the noon period when frequently more than 300 students come in to select books or hunt up references. The library is in charge of Miss Mary Helen McCrea,head librarian, and Miss Catherine Baker, assistant. CLASSROOM IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE llll fi 7
