Could, Ktllg ENGLISH AND FOREIGN LANGUAGES IN 1889. when North high was founded, the English department began with four teachers: iMiss Sterret. Miss Porter. Miss Adams, and Miss Baker. The Polaris, issued as a monthly by Miss Leet. became a weekly in 1920. and is now issued by the news classes. Debating began in the '90 s under the title Argumentation. In 1920 it was dropped from the course, and later public speaking was introduced by Miss Laura Henry. In 1927 the first “A” English class was started in the S5 classes. The German course was installed in North's original program by Miss Aroline Arnett. In 1914 there were eight hundred ten of the one thousand eight hundred students taking the subject. German was dropped out of all the schools in Minneapolis, except North high, during the war. The Latin department began in 1889 with Miss Ida V. Mann as the first teacher. Miss Mann also taught Greek, which was dropped from the course in 1898. The French department of North began with Miss Aroline Arnett as the first French teacher. The French department of North high was the largest in the city. Spanish was first introduced in 1917 by Mrs. J. C. Jensen. She left in 1919 and Miss Juanita Day took her place. Mrs. Esther C. Hall came to North in January. 1921. and has taught Spanish here since then. Swedish was first taught at North in 1913 by Miss Ida P. Lindquist: Miss Ebba M. Norman taught from 1914 to 1921: Miss Tekla Alexis taught until 1928. Norse was introduced into the language department under the guidance of Miss Dikka Reque in 1910. She taught this subject until 1919. when Miss Pauline Farseth became her successor. . I Sixtttn
