Important Incidentals The only thing ' more difficult tlian finding a time when the capable oi ice stafl is not Ijusy is finding an occasion when the presiding secretaries. Miss Lang and Mrs. Shirneker, would be unwilling to oblige a student request. Througli the constant, harrassing trials in ])leasing administration, fac- ulty, students, and others, the office workers man- age to keep their pleasant geniality.

He who is ignorant of foreign languages I ' noios not his own. — Goethe German and French Anti-provineial is the apjiroach of tlie German and French departments. Dr. Dmnmer condncts the German department with his usual efficiency. He is ahly assisted by Dr. Bichter, one of the important additions to the faculty this year. The aims of the department are to pro- vide cultural training as well as a practical knowledge of German. Professor Wagoner ' s work in the French depart- ment has extended its scope to include a number of litera- ture courses for the year. He and Professor Stanger divide between them the introductory courses in French. Growth in enrollment can be credited to their combined ]iersonalities.
