These students are learning the language through examples and illustrations as well as writing. Louis Pasteur, l'homme bien connut a la cause des sciences. This life is part of the curriculum for the first year students. As usual, it is one of the stressed aspects in the language department, the students not only learn the language but also learn of the country and its people. This year some sophomores have studied French, and next year we hope there will be sufficient people to make a three- year course possible. Soon. Mrs. Todd is hoping to start a French-speaking Club which will meet by classes about twice a month. This will encourage fluency among students. Spanish is a very popular language at Central Dauphin this year. There are four first-year sections and one of their special projects-aimed at an increase of vocabulary-was to present a playlet entitled Una Mujer Gana. The second- year students decorated the bulletin board with a scene depicting the celebration of Christmas in Mexico. German is the third of the foreign languages, and this year the two German classes have learned that Deutsch Kann auch Spass sein. MRS. VIOLETTE B.

M,- MR. PAUL R. ZIEGENFUS General Art. Pennsylvania State Universityg B.S, Centralian Art Advisor. Drawing a plan of their dream home is only one phase in the art student's course. Students are allowed to express their innermost thoughts and feelings through Art. Central Dauphin's Art course is divided into two parts: Commercial Art and Creative Art. Commercial Art is for those who desire to make a career in a related art field. The development of skill and craftsman- ship in lettering, advertising, fashions, illustration and interior decorating is included in Commercial Art. This is a three- year course, beginning with basic fundamentals and gradually leading up to the more complex problems. Creative Art is designed to stimulate creative interest in those students who plan to enter the field of classical art. This course includes study in ceramics, sculpturing, oil painting, and famous artists, thereby giving an understanding and appre- ciation of art to the student. Both the Commercial and Creative Art courses require creative ability in the minds of the students and a will to learn, to create, and to succeed. vIR. GEORGE MORROW Iommercial Art.
