W SIX Cllllllt-XNLIE 'l'lte tttaitt pttrpose ol' tlte gttidattce course wlticlt was begtttt at liueltattan High School tltis year is to aid students in making better decisions attd adjusttttettts botlt in and out ol' school. liach class ltas a cotntselor: settiors. Mr. Dean. who is in charge ol' tlte courseg jtntiors, Nlrs. XVeaver: soplto- ntores. Nlr. klL'l'M'll1 lteslttttett, Nlr. Flynn. These coun- selors will follow tlte classes tltrougltout school: i.e.. next year Mrs. lVeaver will be senior counselor: Mr. Heefen. junior: Mr. Flynn, sophomore. liach studettt in every class 1llt'L ltis counselor at sottte tittte during tlte year. .Xt these meetings tlte stttdettt's vocational, educational, and persottal problettts were discussed. Using aptitude, interest, attd maturity tests wlticlt tlte stttdettt ltas takett as a basis, tlte counselor is able to point Olll tlte vocation which is best sttited for tlte stttdettt. lnfortnation on scholarships, schools, and lees, was givett to stttdettts who wish to ettter college or traittittg schools. 'l'he greatest bettelit ol tlte guidance cottrse for tlte studettt is tlte provision ol' a reliable, trttstwortlty adult with whom lte can lreely discttss any problem which tnay be troubling ltittt. Sl'IiIiCH CORRECTION At. tlte begittttittg ol tltis school year a speech cor- rection progratn was added to tlte growing list ol' -cial services ollered by tlte public schools ol tchanan under tlte direction of Miss Muriel Green. 'l'his progrant is especially desigtted lor tlte boys attd girls in tlte schools wlto ltave speeclt tltat is 1101 en- 'ely witltitt tlte ttot'ntal range. lieliore atty lurtlter ilanation about speech tltat is within tlte normal exl -e perhaps it would be valuable to explain tltat rang spc i g age is tlte things you say attd speech ts tlte way the tltittgs ate said. 'l'Itus tlte slang expression yeah ts poor lattgttage because tlte person really means yes'.: V - g ' A girl says 'Ayr-th attd thinks lte ts but whtn t box ot g tech and lattgttage are two dill'erent tltittgs. I.an- sayittg tlte word yes, then tltat is defective speech. Classes are one halli hour long attd they meet twice a week. Boys and girls meet with classtttates about their own age attd grade so tltat eaclt person will get many turns to talk and work on improving his speech. 'l'het'e are only ten pupils in eaclt class. Speech tltat is easy to ttttderstattd attd does ttot draw nttdtte attention to itself or the speaker is tlte goal of tlte speech correctiottist lor tlte boys and girls itt her classes: attd success is tlte goal of those sixty boys and girls, who twice weekly pttt down tlteir books and pencils attd lor a hall'-hour work diligently on talking better.
