ngldfz The study of English is of great importance in every high school curriculum and the work of this department has two aims. It helps to prepare pupils for successful business and professional careers by teaching them to express themselves clearly and correctly. Secondly, by encouraging the reading of literary masterpieces, it gives pupils a cultural background. Every student realizes that the inability to speak correctly is a detrif ment in the business world and a definite social disadvantage. Great emphasis is, therefore, placed upon grammar during the four years English course. Classes are taught sentence construction, pronunciation, and good word usage. Through oral topics, students have an opportunity to practice speaking before a group. They are also taught how to write correct busif ness and social letters. The study of literature is another valuable part of the English course. Each year students read and discuss such classics as Dickens' beloved The Tale of Two Cities , Scott's The Talisman and Shakespeare's great tragedies, Hamlet and L'Macbeth . By arousing an interest in reading, the English department helps pupils to develop a habit that will bring pleasure during leisure hours. All students are now required to take the course in the History of English Literature. From this they learn the development of various liter' ary forms such as the novelg become familiar with the names of famous authors, and learn many interesting facts about their lives and works. This course opens up a whole field of Hne books to be explored as the student's taste in reading develops. A boy's or girl's success in other subjects depends upon his ability to understand what he reads and to express clearly the ideas he has gained from his study. Thus we see the importance of English in our high school course. ewan, Louise F. Belden, B.A. june A. Blair, M.A. Ruth C. Culliton, M.A. Marie C. Curran, M.A. John A. Demerly, B.A. Helen H.
