ROSENBERG History Department The fire burned dimly and the stars in the open sky seemed to come closer to earth. The call of a coyote rang through the still night air and the song of a rancher riding herd to watch the cattle, floated to the ears of the cowboys as they lay on the ground around the fire listening to one of their numlxer who was speaking. He was telling a story of the history of the great western land in early days. The men listened intently to his narrative. S0 always have men hungered for the story of human experience. They wish to know how their predecessors lived-the social customs, the beliefs, the forms of government which they had. They wish to know how their government is conducted, how it was originated, and what its forerunners were. History is a record of our social development. It shows us how we have progressed to our present state of living, lt is in the study of history that the student learns of our past development which is the guide for our future progress.

Miss G.x1x1BLE Nliss Vt'it,xv Bliss Alumni Bliss Sxlziziziz Kllss Mclliuinz Mit. lhstiv Language Department Hand in hand with education go the three foreign languages: Latin, French, and Spanish. VVhether it he the grand-daddy ol all languages, Lating the nasal, pleasing flow of French: or the colorful, musical speech ol the Spanish peon, each of these languages has its place in ranch life, its invisilmle presence influencing the lives of our cowboys. The bloody campaigns of Caesar have their parallel in the deadly tends of ranchers and cattle thieves. Many times a cowboy on his lonely vigil ol the plains is caught humming a gay French tune. Up from Mexico drift countless lazy, sometimes moody, almost always gay ealnelleros, leaving traces of their visits through Spanish words which have tinally heroine perma- nent parts of VVcstet'n vernacular. The foremen of the ranchers take the student covvhoys into the lives of the early Romans, teach them the diplomatic language of French, and the romantic Spanish. XVhether it he campaigns with Caesar, or correspondence with real French people, each is planned with infinite care. So if you follow your childhood dream of becoming a second liuttalo Bill or jesse james, Jr., or as you follow your chosen vocation in life, do not he astonished to find your good old Latin, French, or Spanish verhs, as the case may be, standing you in good stead with astonishing frequency. Our school offers four years of Latin, with two each of French and Spanish. The following faculty are in charge: El,l'iANUR GAlNIBI,l': VFRNICE SAICGIQR SLB.
