Freshwater these seven happy peers trained the cavaliers to be good subjects by familiarizing them with ancient. medieval, and modern history as well as with the events which happen day by day. In this department, our would-be cavaliers learned through their study of geography, of the world in which we live.

CW 36 Elfaafaif . 55515311555 L Reed Parks Younkman Photo Gaskins Baker Conrath Shanahan Foreign Language, Art, Music and Physical Education HE higher life of inexperienced Cavaliers must be directed and moulded into the proper form so that they may enjoy life to its fullest extent. Moreover, the knights must be in good physical condition if they wish to succeed in any of their undertakings. The faithful members of these de- partments have contributed all that is within their power to help the knights in these respects. No realm can be complete and no cavalier can be happy without music and art. Mrs. Hazel Younkman taught art, and Mr. F. E. Parks taught music. Mr. Parks tirelessly trained the members of the Glee Clubs for the opera, the Eisteddfod, and for many interesting musical programs in mass meetings. The physical training of the cavaliers was directed by Miss Josephine Reed for the girls, and by Mr. Charles Gaskins for the boys. In addition. Miss Reed taught physiology. Miss Mary Conrath, head of the Foreign Language Department and senior supervisor, taught Latin and Spanish. Miss Helen Shanahan also taught Latin, and Miss Helen Baker, French. Those who taught foreign languages endeavored to vary the monotony of the study and to show the practical application of the courses. The peers of these departments, as well as of all the departments, have been invaluable to our realm in training the Cavaliers in both book lore and extra- curricular activities. ajgarjgatieajgageajjgajgkaggga
