Excerpt from The Lower High School

The opening of the Panama Canal will make the West an important commercial section, and numerous international problems will arise. The condition and development of the Pacific Coast countries are of particular interest to California. The course calls for a considerable knowledge of geography.

Foreign languages are taught almost wholly by the conversational method. The objects in the rooms furnish subjects of conversation. Some times the recitation period is turned into a social gathering, or an afternoon tea-party to bring into use a larger vocabulary. The children are taught to sing songs in the language, and occasionally a little play is given before the school. As the work progresses more time is given to grammatical construction and translation.
