Beginning with an introduction to Shakespeare, the course gradually unfolds a whole new realm of en- joyment and learning. Along with this adult literature the fine points of grammar are reviewed. On this trustworthy founda- tion Junior and Senior English and college work can progress with satisfactory re- sults. 'ZOe t Ti tKeC t ( ccCtcvie MR. J. AUGUSTIN PEREZ University of Havana, Cuba.

It is the most elaborate and most efficient technique of communi- cation. The teachers of Glynn Academy strive to foster in their students a feeling of the personal satisfaction of being able to con- verse in a foreign tongue. French, a new addition to the school’s curriculum, will aid the industrious students in learning the romantic language, while Spanish and Latin not only greatly improve the stu- dent’s vocabulary but also carry him back to the times of the dashing Don Juan and noble Julius Caesar. 21

English III, IV. “This royal throne of kings, this scep- ter’d isle . . thus seniors begin their journey through a new literary world high- lighted by such names as Stevenson, Scott, Shelley and Shakespeare. Senior English is a fitting end to twelve years of study, for it is here in English literature that the highest expression of man’s thought has been set down by masters in the trade. Seniors complete this long journey with due reward, a deep admiration for . . this earth, this realm, this England.” Sfilendvi 4meniM MRS. GLORIA HENDERSON B.A., Hendrix College.

Much of what we cherish in our Ameri- can tradition is presented to the juniors in their study of American literature. The wide scope of their studies covers novels, short stories, poetry, and drama from the pens of our country’s most renowned men of letters. The students’ own creativity and imagination are sparked by the inspiration of the masters and the proding emphasis of their teachers. Enterprising junior authors each year vie for the honor of having their original works chosen as one of the three composi- tions to represent the school in the National Council of Teachers of English Citation Awards Contest. Win or lose, the hard work reaps benefits for all participants.
