THE MONARCH 1928 23 Department of Foreign Languages In the modern high school everything is operated on the departmental plan. There is a science department, there is a history department and there are many other departments, each organized to do its special work in the best manner possible. The language department is the one which shows the greatest change probably from theschools of a hundred years ago. In Hamburg High School three foreign languages are taught: Latin, French and German. Miss Charlotte Calkins has had charge of the Latin for seven years and has built up an enviable reputation for that branch of the system in our school. Miss Fidelia Warburtoii has charge of the French and that language seems to be very popular with the students. The Petite journal is a daily request at the librarian's desk and is read by French students with considerable ease and interest. German has been under the care of Mrs. Anna Nenno Ueblacher for many years in Hamburg High School. Her students felt a deep regret when, in the early part of this year on account of failing health, Mrs. Ueblacher retired from the teaching profession. Her place has been taken by Miss Louise Spiesz during the remainder of the year and she has made many friends among her German students. The fact that three languages are being offered affords a wide choice to the students in making up their courses. It is expected that as the demand for other foreign languages increases, Spanish and Italian will be added to our curriculum. Iolm Kleis '28
