T1 1at's k-a-t . . . cat. MR. JAMES C. SMITH Mr. james C. Smith and those seniors who have had the privilege of knowing him, naturally believe that Latin is not only an ornament, but a necessity as well. A study of Latin develops 'Sword consciencel'-the ability to select the proper word from several with similar meaning. In addi- tion to this, a study of Latin aids in other areas such as modern foreign languages and literature. Once a student has had our one and only Latin instructor, he invariably is persuaded to continue his study of Latin. Because we are now on a seven period schedule, Mr. Smith hopes that the Latin program will be extended to include an enriching fourth year. Omnis Gallia Est Divisa in Tres Partes

Conversation and comprehension are the aims of every language teacher, and Miss Rose Presel, head of the lan- guage department, certainly adheres to these rules. Whether a student studies French, German, Italian, or Spanish, he receives a fundamental foundation in reading experience, grammar, and confidence in conversing with others. One studies the land and the literature of his language. Those who study a foreign tongue widen their personal perspective and acquire an understanding of other peoples. t MISS ROSE PRESEL Modern Foreign Language
