Training of this nature is not only important in the classroom, but there is cr definite carry-over into other lines ot Work so that one may be easily understood. For never be- fore has the ability to express ohe's self either through public speaking or pen and ink been so important. Literature, also, is an outstanding feature of the English Department at I. H. S. With the aid of color- ful up-to-date text books, such characters as Iulius Caesar and Macbeth capture the imagination of each boy and girl. The English Department uses many different methods to teach the fundamentals of our native tongue and the historical background of great literature up to, and including, the present day. Some of these devices are phonograph record- ings and various visual aids.
