Students learn cy' dmrent cultures Bonjour, veni, vidi, vici were expressions that led stu- dents into a world of foreign study in the French and Latin classes. Grammar and basic fundamentals of the languages were covered in Mrs. Kreis's classes. Through use of the language lab equipped with earphones, tapes were used to increase listening comprehension and to acquaint the stu- dents with actual French and Latin dialects. Latin I introduced the student to Caesar and the boys along with basic classical culture. Second year Latin brought Hannibal across the Alps and engulfed the student amid the Punic Wars. French I and II taught French culture and drilled the students in modern conversation - Je ne parle francais. MRS. MARY G. KREIS . . . A.B.
