English And I, now, have the honor of presenting our Venezuelan ambassador, Eli.” Knowledge blooms in room 16, and so do Mrs. Knipe’s plants. Alas, poor Yorrick.” She can ' t find a copy of Mad” any¬ where. The polish and poise of each individual is dependent upon his proficiency in his language. Therefore students at Fairhaven High School are fortunate to have such a remarkable English department. Our teachers have opened the door for us to the world of literature, and from the pages of many of the great classics we have learned valuable lessons of life. We do not only learn to profit from the writings of others, but we also learn to create. Through practice in grammar and composition, we gain the powerful tool of accurate expression. In our c lass discussions we share our thoughts and ideas and develop a greater understanding of the feelings of others. The study of English is more than a study of subject matter; it is a study of life and a step to maturity. 22
