Miss Feiler, who has herself spent a year in France, not only offered a study of the lan- guage but also of the traditions of the country. Sister Mary Lillian, who has taught the Spanish language for many years, presented a new method of teaching this year. Using tape recorders, records and a constant drill in speaking, we have begun to make the dialect of the country our own. Mr. Schwab, a new teacher at Bennett, gave our students an opportunity to increase their ability in Latin as he offered the second year Latin class.
