IJ ization Far back in the dusky interior of the Social Arts building can be found a room bearing traces of the country to the south. Here students of the Spanish language have gone for nine- teen years to partake of the knowledge Miss Edith Salmans has of our neighor, Mexico. And it is not mere textbook know- ledge as at last count she had crossed our southern border thirty-two times. Her first experience in Mexican life came at six weeks of age when her doctor father moved the family to highly cultured, slow tempoed Guanajuato, where he established the first hospital in the entire nation. Here she was raised, and became familiar not only with the language of the people, but with their culture as well. Altogether Miss Salmans estimates that she has lived in Mexico for thirty-two years. During those years she h-as taught English in a girl's school in Guanajuato, and in the university there. Her experiences in that land could fill a book . . . and have. She has authored many a brief sketch of Mexican life, and is now completing a novel of that country. For her con- tributions to the knowledge of Compton students as well as her boundless sympathy we dedicate this book to Miss Edith Salmans. l Nl ISS EDITH SALMANS
