Herr Aloa Haskett .jfaflzemafics and .gcuzquaqe eparfmeizfs A three-fold foreign language course offers German with its scientific influence, French with its cultural background, and Latin, the foundation of our own language. The classes have other interests beside learning the fundamentals of the language. The German class learned Christmas Carols which they rendered for Yuletide entertainment. Members of the French class carry on a correspondence with students in France. The Latin students, making sure that they wouldn't be forgotten on Christmas morn, wrote letters in Latin to Santa Claus. Ralph F.

Freshmen are first introduced to this department through physiology, an interesting study designed to give the student an understanding of the functions of his body. As sopho- mores, a more advanced study in both the plant and animal kingdoms is opened to the students by the biology department. Juniors and seniors may delve into the field of either physics or chemistry, or into both if they wish. In the Home Economics department, girls of all classes are taught the essentials of cooking and sewing through actual experience. Though avoided in many other schools, the science department at Bloom has been made one of the most attractive courses, such results are due to the ceaseless efforts of its faculty supervisors.

Bliss Adele Mernitz -a Mcafionaf eparfmezzf It is in the shop and drawing department that theory is taught by practical experi- ence. A student gains the fundamentals of drafting and archiecture in the drawing rooms. He is taught to visualize the object and portray it on paper as a professional draftsman might. In pattern-making, tin-shop, moulding, steel-lathe, wood-lathe, and planing, of which the shop-work consists, the student gains the knowledge of a machinist, carpenter, moulder, pattern-maker, and tinner. This taste of actual experience in various jobs offered in the industrial world aids the student in determining his career. W. P. Dyer: Manual Training Qheadj, Dean of Boys, Assistant Principal.
