New Curriculum, New Emphasis—Same Coals I hold the world but as a stage where every man plays his part. The part we play is digging deep into the dark, mysterious realms of English homework, hoping to increase our knowledge of literature and grammar. We spend many hours not only memorizing the lines from Shakespeare but also analyzing the morals expressed in Emerson’s essays. Not only do we have to read essays, we have to write them. This was all outlined in the new course of study in English for Montgomery County. Infinitives, nouns, gerunds, and adjectives roll endlessly in our conversation to our friends. If we only knew how to identify them on a test! faithful preparation, with a little cramming on the side, will bring pleasant results. Painful to many students is the realization that English plays a major role in all subjects. After daily practice sessions, our knowledge of literature and gram- mar widens. Undoubtedly, on the stage where we stand, there is no end to the part perfection plays in Englisli. ■ .earning requires careful drill.
