LELAND H. MONSON If the moods of language could automatically become as varied and as captivating as those of personality, this sketch could not fail of its attempt to picture the simplicity, friendliness, and sincerity of Mr. Monson. Behind each of his lectures is a wealth of tried and true philosophy, humanized by illustrations drawn from real life. English Language and Literature | HE art and the joy of a teacher is to discover the talent and personality of a student and to guide him by friendly counsel and constructive criticism towards the goal of liberal learning. This attitude distinguishes the instruction of Leland H. Monson in Debating, British Literature, and English Composition. The debating course, built upon the foundation of English I and II, was a detailed study of formal argumentation. Modern questions in tariff, prison reform, silver loan, unemployment insurance, and the recognition of Soviet Russia were used as basic material for study. A study of Samuel Johnson and his contemporaries, of Shakespeare, and of modern British writers, constituted the courses in literature. THE distant snow-capped Ben Lommond heralds the approach of winter. The flowers in the great white urns stiffen as they feel the keenness of the air. Massive white clouds in the north and west announce that soon not only the mountain peaks, but all of the Bonneville region will be mantled in white. Modern Languages FRENCH is the language of the diplomats, and the aristocracy of Europe. It is a musical, smooth-flowing tongue mellowed with age and tradition, infused with peculiarities common to the Gallic race, and beautified by simplicity and strength. It is a language of quality; its mastery a worthy accomplishment. Beginning French opens a new world to the vision of its students, a world wherein ordinary facts assume a new meaning and common objects become colored bits of romance. The French people become a friendly race because of our better understanding of them. Advanced French aims for fluency of speech and perfection of grammar, achievements that make possible the enjoyment of French literature. NORMA A. AUBRY Almost a stranger to the majority at Weber Madame Aubry is a precious friend to those who know her, revealing a rare heart to those who are her students. Her few quiet words of greeting, her gentle, gracious manner, mark her as a lady of quality and distinction. THE western sun casts its last gleaming rays before disappearing into the clouds. Within a few hours the college stands almost hidden behind trees bending with the weight of the new fallen snow. Each breath of wind sends a shower of flakes from the twigs to the ground; nothing has escaped the crystalline shower of beauty.
