Mr. George J. Keller Art Art is recognized as another means of expression and it must be understood and utilized if one is to teach well and ef- fectively. Students in both Elementary and Sec- o ndary curricula are required to take course in both art and art appreciation. In the Elementary field there are addi- tional course in the fundamental princi- ples of art as applied in everyday living. Prof. George M. Keller includes in his courses challenging opportunities for stu- dents to work in drawing, lettering, pos- ter making and creative art. All work has a sharp bent toward the utilization of art in the understanding of living, such as home planning and decoration. Music Music is the universal language. It is an excellent medium for understanding countries that seem far away and foreign. Miss Harriet Moore has presented a course in Music Appreciation to every Elementary and Secondary student. This course acts as a basis for building further understandings in the field of music. The Elementary people get additional training in teaching music, sight reading and conducting. In these courses music of other lands as well as American music- is studied and discussed. As a result, music training becomes a practical as well as a cultural subject. 2::
