MISS VIVIAN BROWN B.Mus. A.G.O. M.T.A.C. Organ The gift of the Hammond Organ to S.D.U.A. enlarged the possibilities for training our students for wider service as well as contributing to the enrichment ot individual lite. Our aim is to develop good taste in music, proper technique, and to give experience in playing for school and church functions. MR. ERVIL CLARK B.A. Science Mathematics A wealth of interesting facts greet the students each day as the mysteries of science are opened to their receptive minds. Second only to the study of the Bible, nature re- veals God's love to those who search. Our science depart- rnent is attempting to tultill the needs of those students preparing themselves for all walks of life. f Si I ,msg ,. ,. it it W Al rr , I wb CL I y IX U -sf, bi , ,fan gylfift-i,fg,QAOfifi I f 1 ' if get L I I sf fit-if vtglwtw A W L 991119 FIV4' MR.

In our Spanish classes we study the language, litera- ture, history, and customs of the Spanish people in order to speak their words, under- stand their problems, and share in their happiness and in this way become more tol- erant and happy ourselves. MR. MARION J. DENMAN M.Ed. Commercial Courses offered in the commercial de- partment include a year of shorthand, two years of typing, and a year of book- keeping. It is planned to have a second year of shorthand next year and suffi- cient secretarial training to prepare for office work. New equipment will be added next year. About sixty students are enrolled in the several classes now b in tau ht. e Q Q ,fwy ww MRS. GERTRUDE M. AYALA B.A. Piano It is not sufficient to participate in music passively. The one who can re-create for himself the immortal melodies of the masters has, as Heifetz aptly put it, a medium for self-expression that will galvanize his personality as long as he lives. ,, it-,,fi.
