Rock collection, compiled for Mrs, Fleming's class, brings the study of Geology close to home for Peggy Sutton and Odell Cook progress in on Atomic Age Mrs. N.E. Penney Math The world in which we, the future scientists, physicists, and mathematicians, live is consi- derably different than the world our parents knew as teenagers. Where they lived in the Air Age, we live in a new, unknown age--the atomic age. A era where the atom thrives in its remoteness. A degree of time where more questions are popping up than we have answers for. An hour of destiny that calls for a knowledge of compas ses and protractors, bunsen burners and Florence flasks, slide rules and atomic charts. It is also a time when men must use pencil and paper along with his greatest gift--his brain--small in mass but large in concept.

Reading, writing, and speaking are everyday needs. But these three essentials are not the only facets of grammatical learning. English extends from the dia- graming of a complex sentence to the read- ing of a Shakespearean drama, from the writing of a research theme to the reciting of The Raven . MTHS students study English each year so that they may com- municate easier in the changing world around them. To actually understand foreign people and their customs, one must have a work- ing knowledge of their language. Three years of French is taught in ascending levels of grammar, mechanics, conversa- tion, and reading. It would be hard to write a research theme or to learn anything if one didn't have books. But one cannot have every book he needs. The library is a store- house of encyclopedias, novels, and books of all descriptions. It is an arsenal of written works. Communication, however, does not end with the spoken and written word but includes a third language. This third lan- guage is music, the universal language . Music has been said to be 'that undefinable link between countries, between cultures, and between peoples. ' Mrs W Comstock Mrs. W, Lillard Study H111 X Librarian . rx .
