The best inten- tions and the kindest hearts in the world will fail of their highest values, if American lips cannot speak the words of comfort, cheer, inspiration and friendship, in the only tongue that can be music to the ears of Eu- rope’s saddened, grieved and lonely unfortunates. I hope that no student will be granted the diploma of this college who cannot, at the end of her course. read, write and speak with facil either French, or Italian, or German. Facility in these will make easier, it you need to learn th&m, the Russian, the Polish, and other kindred tongues.
