THE LANTERN 17 MATHEMATICS For mental gymnastics we have the Mathematics Department. For the most part, Algebra and Geometry are required subjects and are taken because the course dictates so. However, the student who is really in- terested in mathematics may continue and take advanced algebra, solid geometry and trigonometry. During this semester, the Math department has kept itself before the stu- dent's eye by running a problem of some sort in the Weekly every week. These attracted quite a bit of attention among all the students, especially those who wished to exercise their keen minds. LANGUAGES One could become quite a linguist if he wished to take all that the Language Department offers, for we have French, Spanish, German and Latin. Stepping into one of the French classes one would be justified in imagining he were in Paris after he had heard how glibly the students take to the French- man's language. Presto! Was that a quick change? It does seem as if we are in the land of toreadors and bull-lights, but don't worry, we are only in one of the many Spanish classes to be found at Hibbard. The students seem to succeed quite well in bringing the atmosphere of Spain to Hibbard. Vas iss das ? No airplane could go quite so fast. In Germany is where we apparantly are now, but don't be surprised if I say the work of the German classes here, has led us to believe we were in the land of Schiller and Heine. Adsum, Caesar. No, we arenlt in the Latin quarters of Heaven but in the Latin classes of Hibbard where the teachers in charge are doing their best in bringing declensions and conjugations, Caesar and his army, Cicero and his senators, and Aeneas with his gods and goddesses before the students. So you see a trip through the Language Department reveals quite a number of interest- ing things. Here are two contributions: one from a Latin student and the other from a French class. AD ASTRA PER ASPERA T here is an idea prevalent among high school students that Latin is a bug- bear, of great value in improving one's mind, but never to be enjoyed thoroughly. It is only through perseverance that the erroneous notion is ultimately removed Qrom students' minds. Many difficulties present themselves to the little Freshie and Galba est agricola seems an almost insurmountable obstacle in the path to the star of attainment, four years of Latin. The first year of Latin grammar and ufabulae facilesf' having been com- pleted, the sophomore turns ,to reading all about Caesar in Gallia. Then, indeed, do the gerunds and supines daze his mind, and, alas, the res militaria of the ancient Roman general almost conquers the minds of the girls, not martially inclined. Yet the trials of Sophomore Latin are somewhat lightened by the truly interesting accounts of Caesar's marvelous deeds, and there is al- ways the promise of even better stories to be read in thejdim far oif days of Senior Latin.

THE LANTERN Glass 6 oem He can who thinks he can VVith a hopeful song, a prayer and our dreams At Life's road today we proudly stand, A road that somehow to us seems A maze of paths, some wondrous grand, Some humble, all intermingled though With tears and laughter. And the song That we sing as we onward go Is the hope that the way may not be long Between the points where our paths shall blend. While our dream is the dream of ages past That it may be ours to put an end To can't and make it can at last. Our prayer is for strength, our prayer is for power Well to perform our self-set task, And for courage in each trying hour To laugh in spite of tears we ask. VVith a hopeful song, a prayer and a dream And a motto worth our high esteem, We're sure to conquer in our plan, For we know: He can who thinks he can. -,Dorothy Sparks.
