Zzzifclerd in oreign anguage Because of the facilities offered by the rooms in the new building, added interest will be found in the foreign language courses. Each language is provided with a room which can be arranged in a man- ner in keeping with the language, and thus afford a more appropriate atmosphere. Pictures pertaining to foreign language and foreign countries will be centered in the new quarters. A small library containing books of foreign languages and foreign countries will be centered in the depart- ment's office, thus giving the student taking these courses an opportu-A nity for more extensive reference 'work and making such work rnucli simpler for the teacher. As a second stimulus to the course, there are the various clubs, The French, German, and Latin clubs give students a chance for practical application in addition to the pleasure they provide. Without an understanding of many languages the art and beauty of the old world will be lost to us forever. The study of foreign languages gives one broader knowledge of the world in which he lives and a better understanding of English. A11in1r1d1'vrf1'tc.' Miss Hazel F Linkfielrl, def partment head.

Social science is the study of the activities of hu- rnariity since the beginning of history and is of great value to the present-day generation because it pre- sents the problems that others have faced and coped with. There are reauired courses in this field in Elgin l-ligh School, 1.-:hich are taught with the following obf jectives in mind: to give to the student a clear concep- tion of what various ages and cultures have contrib- uted, to present enough historic background to give an appreciation for the various types of government and social institutions in the past which have contributed to or modified our present social, political, and economic system, to develop in the student not only an under- standing but an appreciation of a government, what that government means to him, and what his responsi- bilities under this government areg to afford an underf standing of the economic system that the nation has tcday and a better itncx-:ledge of world affairs and cur- rent events, af: our present age makes its own history. Miss Martha Black and E. G, McLean stop in the Abbott halls for a last minute chat. R. S, Cartwright, head of the depart- ment, Miss Katherine H. Davery, and Maurice O.
