ln a continual though friendly battle, the language de- partment thrives on a spirit of competition. French, under the supervision of Sister Gertrude Marie and Sister Mary Hugh, broadens minds in the knowledge of the grammar, history and literature of a modern world langu- age. Countering the accusation that Latin is dead, Mother Mary Agnes's and Mr. Richard Ferry's students afhrm the wealth of language and vocabulary develop- ment to be traced in the study thereof. The fluency and interest of Mrs. Rose Fornadel's Spanish students promise an addition to the current 85-million Spanish speaking people. Our mother tongue gives of her knowledge and beauty under the skillful guidance of Sister Mary Martin and Miss .lane Mitchell, who explore literature with the senior high, while Sister Mary Mar- garet and Sister M. Patricia Joseph guide the iunior high school. The deathless battle for supremacy will probably continue among language students, lending a true vigor to this department. Caesar and Virgil must be as proud of Cl-rj Kathleen Drummond and Patricia Morris as Mother Mary Agnes is.
