English must be practiced to become instinctive The command of simple direct language which underlies effective speech and writ- ing comes from a knowledge of the funda- mentals of grammar. Students don't con- sciously classify each word in a sentence as noun, adjective, or verb, but they must know the parts of speech, therefore dia- graming is used to develop this skill. Spelling, too, plays a vital part in the student's life, for in either a social or a business letter, an error in spelling is usually considered a sign of carelessness. A second phase of the English course is literature, which extends experiences geo- graphically, historically, socially, intellect- ually, and morally by taking the reader into different places, introducing new kinds of people, and posing unusual, yet real problems. Teachers vary their tech- niques by making use of the reading machines, requiring memorization of poetry, and scheduling films which illus- trate particular selections being discussed. Speech and dramatics round out the English program, Both are open to all juniors and seniors, speech is required on the academic course. Those who hope to take part in the senior play-on stage or behind the scenes -find dramatics excellent preparation. Do it yourself! For her demonstration speech, Jane Ann explains one hobby, making candle Christmas trees. Mr, Allen Miss Bacde Mr. Bennett Mrs Billmon Mr Callane Mr Embry
