PSYCHOLOGY j Psychology is a study of the people with whom we associate. In our class we learn about the common man, what he says, what he does, and why-he acts in a certain way. lt tells how our life is spent, how we admire or envy certain persons, how we enjoy being with other people, how we help others and how we like to work with others. Psychology is a study of the human mind, although we do not study about it all the time. We discuss many subjects relating to the mind. We study about the people with whom we live and judge their actions. We learn how to co-operate with others, how others make speeches in public, how we make friends, how to make a good impress- ion on others, and how to go about getting a job. We also learn to judge our own actions. jimmy Eur-kart and Bob Taylor WHY STUDY ENGLISH? English is the one school subject that is in constant use through- out life. One employs it in some fashion all- of the time. One wants to use it in the best fashion with fullness, freedom and certainty. Blunders in speech or in writing are a handicap to success. Good English usage brings respect and esteem. It is easier to get one's wants satisfied in this world if one can speak well and write correctly. People listen with pleasure to one who can express himself clearly. We study English because it is our chief bond of unity with our fellow men. In learning English, therefore, one is increasing his power to express himself and thereby be a better citizen. 'English will help to keep us friendly and tolerant and prevent many misunderstandings. Whoever by his own usage helps to maintain English at a high level of purity, contributes not only to his own good but also to national welfare. Mary Gamble
