. F orelgn Languages Two French students make use of one of the audio-visual aids offered in the school. The three foreign languages offered at Smith are Latin, French, and Spanish. Two years of each of these languages are gen- erally pursued, but a third year is available when it is requested. Besides learning how to speak and write the language, students also learn about the culture of the country from which the lan- guage originated. This year, these three languages have been made even more interesting by the films shown to illustrate further the cultures of these countries. MRS. GERALDINE SCHIEFER MRS. LOUISE JORDAN MRS.
