JAMES C. SMITH IR. ANCIENT LAN UAGE In order to retain a small meas- ure of the culture left to us by the ancient Romans, some persevering students understand the intrinsic value of Latin as a basic language and enjoy studying and interpret- ing the works of our Latin schol- ars. Even though Latin is spoken of as a dead language, through the study and appreciation of its greatness, it will live in the hearts and minds of all who understand its full meaning. Our Library - Storehouse of ancient and modern cultures. KATHERINE C. GALLIVAN ANN MASON Chaucer, Colleges, or Cryptography? You'll find it in the school library where students are able to obtain multitudinous, up-to-date information on practically any subject from how to build a wood cabinet to dancing lessons. Opportunities are also open for pupils as student librarians. By taking full advantage of the library facilities, a student has a preparation for college or any research work in the future. Adding to the charm of our panel-walled library, is the sparkling vivaciousness and warm friendliness of our school librarian, Miss Katherine C. Gallivan. Inspired by her sincere interest, students leave the library eager to continue their quest for knowledge.

M. ISABELLE HALL Head of English Department An old maxim states that no one is indispensable? But if this term could be applied to any member of our faculty, Miss M. Isabelle Hall, Head of the English Department, would be the recipient of it. An important part of English besides reading and writing is speaking. Miss Hall and the other English teachers give their students an opportunity to express themselves during discussions which have proven to be warm and informal. A sort of spark is injected into each of the pupils in Miss Hallis classes, and the discussions that they venture into always manage to be exciting and stimulating. Regardless of one's course, students are placed in the various English groups according to their individual abilities to comprehend, to read, and to speak well. WILLIAN J. MCKENNA MARIAN B.
