Cultural and Vocational Electives Although English is the most important language for Americans, it is rapidly becoming evident that the knowledge of a foreign lan- guage is desirable. Not only does another language help us in understanding other people, but it also aids us in becoming more proficient in the use of English. The Language Department now offers two years of German, Latin, Spanish, and French. A basic know- ledge of speaking, writing, and reading is taught. The use of films, records, and pictures, makes the courses more interesting. Sewing, reading, and travel are the hob- bies of Mrs. Althouse (Latin and Ninth Grade English) who is a graduate of the University of Nebraska. Miss Dolezal (German and Sophomore English) travels and does embroidery work. She has an M. A. degree from the University of Nebraska, and has taught there. Paris, France is one place that Miss Dunlap (Geometry, French, and International Club) can be found during her summers. She has studied French at the Sorbonne, and has an M. A. degree from Columbia University. She enjoys cooking, photography, and sports. One of the most beautiful and expressive of all the arts is music. Lincoln Northeast offers courses in almost every phase of music. 18 .
