I The Packer Collegiate Institute 55 cilines uf itunp, p 615132 languages. i ENGLISH.ik- The Institute puts the study of English before all else, believing that training in the mother tongue is better than any other educational influence. The English course of the Institute begins with the ele- mentary lessons of the Primary school, and is continued to the end of the Senior year. From the first it aims to stimulate originality, to develop the observation of the student, to help her in expressing her thoughts in fitting language, and to cultivate in her a taste for intelligent reading. I When a student is not pursuing any of the specialcourses in rhetoric and literature which are offered at the Institute, she is re- quired each year afterher entrance into the Preparatory Department to Write six essays, and to attend, Weekly, two lessons devoted to the principles and practiceof English composition and the appreciative reading of literature. ' 'iSpecia1 courses in grammar, rhetoric, and literature m-QV be noted OH schedules of studies, pages 45-54, 83, 88.
