Radio Super Station S.S.S. nn I The Voice of France -V The first thing on the program will be a talk, Two Years of French in Sentous, by a former student of this fine school. Bon jour, my friends, says the speaker. I shall give you a few hints of how I have learned to speak French fluently. Years ago I used to go to Sentousg it was a nice old school, and I decided to take French, which was taught by Mrs. Mc'GiiT, a very likeable lady. It is so long ago I don't exactly remember what We did first. Anyway, We read a little book called 'Petit Remi' ,which the class enjoyed very much. We finished that, then we read 'Petits Contes de France! I remember what a hard time Mrs. McGiff used to have to make us learn the verbs. I laugh as I think of how we could not see the difference between the imperfect and the past indefinite. Mrs. McGiff used to conduct a club every Friday morning beside the one on Thursdays. The name of the Friday club was 'Le Rendez-vOus,' and the other 'La Fleur de Lis.' We used to have good old times in those clubs. Mrs. McGiff used to show us pictures of France, and then We'd sing. The two years sped very rapidly, and before we knew, it we had left our dear old school and our dear French teacher, Mrs. McGiff, whom her scholars liked so well. Just a Minute I have only just a minuteg Only sixty seconds in ity 1 Forced upon me-can't refuse ity Didn't seek it-didn't choose ity- But it's up to me to use it, 'Give account if I abuse ity Just a tiny little minute- But Eternity is in it. -Themis of Z.

Usrally the classes are quite small, but this term the adjustment classes have been exceptionally large and quite crowded. This department is really in existence to give people who have flunked in a subject a chance to make it up. It is not meant to push people ahead of where they belong, except in some very rare case where the pupil is excep- tionally bright and should really go ahead.

The Spanish Department This is Radio S.S.S., Los Angeles. At this time we are broadcast- ing the departments of this station. Mr. Howard Earl will speak on the Spanish department, assisted by Miss Bellotine. Stand by. One of the most important languages taught at Sentous is Span- ish. Why? Because California was first settled by Spaniards, and there are many Spanish people in California today. Many places where people apply for jobs, the question is asked, Do you speak Spanish? There are nrany other features of the Spanish department. There are maps of Spam, Spanish newspapers and many other things of in- terest. But the heist part of the Spanish department is the teacher, Miss Bellotine. Miss Bellotine is always ready to help you and an- swer your questioni, no matter how busy she is. Anyone who has ever studied Spanish under Miss Bellotine will tell you that she is a very fine teacher. When a persdria has studied Spanish for a year and a half they can carryon a cdrgversation easily with a Spaniard. It also helps to create a friendly eeling with our neighbor, Mexico, when we can speak her language, If you ever take up a language, take Spanish as your iirst choice, a d you will never regret it. The Spanish dt partment will now sing one of the songs learned during the semester: . La. .Iota Vnlenciana.
