LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT WW9 N Pagv Twenly-fuillr S . Besictes the course in English offered here at Elder, Latin, German. anct Spanish are also important courses in language. Latin is by tar the most popular oi the three. This is ctue to the tact that Latin is the basic language upon which all the romantic tongues are founded. 1n the Latin, Spanish, and German courses, rich historic value is found. In Latin, we learn of the campaigns of Caesar and ot the works of Virgil. In Spanish we find early histories ot the South American countries. The German course shows the progress of the German language through the early Teutonic tribes into its modern Form. The increasing interest of our country in Foreign attairs has brought out the true practical value in a familiarity with a foreign language. 1'1; ,i J 44,, wx AL .f'raf i, 4 0'4; , . t I' r. ,. f e f 7' PWA wywmij W02 3 t
