Classes Learn by Participatioii Julita Klavins cuts the French bread, and Suellen Munn serves Miss Redmond while the other students of the class await their serving of the French foods. Classes at C.S.II.S. sometimes aid their learning by actually participating in activities relating to their studies. Se eral foreign language classes have parties typical to those in the countrx v hose language they are studying.

Speeches are made by members of each party; nominations are made; platforms are created. .Showcases in the halls display many posters concerning oting, the candidates, and the parties. A great many of us wear buttons and pins to advertise our candidate. On No -ember 8, each of us otes for President at one of the precincts in the school ' s mock election.
