We parley-vous each Week in our our ren- dezvous . . . 329 FRENCH CLUB Nancy Schuey Doris Le Gendre Marry Loynd Eileen Leger Rosemarie Aldrich Barbara Miller Eugenia Cosforf The French Club Meets The spirit of France will never die as long as the Cercle Jeanne d'Arc,' can still contribute its bit to the cause. The meetings, conducted entirely in French, make the language something more than verbs and nouns. Chatting in our Hnativel' tongue soon teaches us Where to put our participles and how to express our thoughts. Our harsh Yankee twang soon blends into the soft smooth tones of true Frenchmen. We shall always remember Noel with its beautiful carols that grew to be a part of our Christmas. We remember too, Au Clair de la Lunewg and no program was complete without a round or two of Frere Jacque . We felt the pulse of the people as We studied their country and customs, but all too often We failed to appreciate the humor in their petits bons mots . We listened with interest to Sister Paulina's tales of her trip to France, and We delighted in the pictures of famous cathedrals and noted palaces. All these and many more memories make us believe that the flag of France still flies over its people and that the martial strains of Le Marseillaisen still beats in the heart of the land. 3' Ni . , 'jul eq, P r Wk x F-H jj! l l WE' I. ,git llll Lb CA:
