latest innovation is Business English, a special course for seniors. Using as text the neu addition of burner's Effective Buvincu English, students first learn cor- rect sentence structure, then practice para- graph writing, and finally proceed to the writing of business letters. Under Mrs. Hutchens' tutelage, this group has found the course practical and helpful. Annie Ruth Moore, English, Speech; Speech Work- shop; Athens College, B. S., Peabody College, M. A. Florence S.

ENGLISH The dramatic approach to English litera- ture it here repretented by one of Mr. Roy Wd ie’s tenior classes. Gene Carroll's group gives a glimpse of eighteenth-cen- tury writers assembled at Will’s Coffee- house in London. In such self-directed, self-appraised groups students learn to combine originality and research. After studying the CANTERBURY TALES, students of Miss Anne Savage brought the famous Pilgrims to life by dressing dolls in fourteenth-century costumes. Chaucer's vivid descriptions and the students' care- ful workmanship made it easy for Carolyn Turner to recognise such characters as the demure Prioress and the anything-but- demure Wyf of Bath.
