Communication in other lands Listen and repeat, please. Another dialogue? How do you say ' Hamilton High School ' in German? Communication. We have radio, television, and telephone, but our most personal, practical, and inexpensive means of communication is by speaking. And the only way we can truly communicate with people of other countries is to learn their language. And this is what the foreign language department does. Conjugating verbs, pronounciation of words, and knowing all the peculiarities of the foreign lan- guage are all a part of learning. Many times it seems worth- less. But when we can carry on an intelligent conversation in another language with someone, a sense of accomplishment is what we feel. The German club also had a project this year and they raised money and gave it to Mary Freebed Hospital. Both the Spanish and German clubs had various parties dur- ing the school year. Students coirect Spanish assignments as Mrs. DeVos reads the answers.
