iCmtguagp Department In recent years our Language Department has adopted a modern form of teaching languages called audio-lingual. Teachers first emphasize speaking and understanding, then go on to reading and writing. A necessary tool in improving pronunciation and comprehension is the relatively new language laboratory. A student is also introduced to the culture of France, Spain. Rome, and Germany and to the world of declensions, inflections, and accents. The department currently offers two years of German and Latin, three of Spanish and four of French. Miss Harriet I. Jalbert Chairman Teachers teach students . . . and teachers? Mr. Kenneth L.
