LANGUAGE ART The Language Department, headed by Miss Hunter, is not as large as some of tnu other departments are, but any student who has crossed the threshold and entered the realm of either Latin or Spanish can-and will-tell the inquirer that it is nothing short of intriguing. Latin is the basic language from which English and the other romance languages were derived, thus, a knowledge of Latin is very helpful in any English course. The recent spotlight which was placed on Pan-American relations has placed Spanish in a prominent position, and there is no doubt but what that prominence will continue to grow after the war. These are only a few of the innumerable reasons why languages should be ci part of the curriculum of every high school, and a part of the course of study for any student who is looking into the future beyond today.

UUMMERCIAL ART The Commercial Department of Red Bank High School consists of three departments: Typing, Shorthand, and Bookkeeping. The typing classes have been under a handicap tor the past year due to the annex tire that destroyed the typevvriters, however, the students have learned such things as letter placement, typing of budgets, payrolls, bank statements, and other typing matter. The other departments, shorthand and bookkeeping, have made rapid progress under the instruction ot two very capable teachers, Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Estridge. Page 67
