Languages For World- Wide Co m muni c n Miss Joyce Miller teaches English and Latin and also advises the Latin Club. A language is a system by which human beings or animals use signs or sounds to tell one another what their thoughts are. All men have developed spoken languages, and where there has been any kind of civilized world there has finally developed a written language, too. The world is continually shrinking by advanced transportational andcommunicational machines. People which were once distant become neighbors. Thus, we must communicate with them. Since they do not all speak English our school offers courses in French, and Spanish and the basis for these, Latin, so that the students may understand other parts of the world. The Spanish, English, and family relations teacher is Mrs. Beatrice Saunders who attended Ohio University. Sister Carma Jean Rausch instructs English Composition, American Literature, and French. 28
