One of the most important inventions of man has been the discovery of the use of words. Without this communication we would be on little more than an animal level, for it is this very communication with each other that has brought about a reverence for life, for all life, and for an understanding of the human heart, of which Faulkner spoke. It is this very use of words - both spoken and written, both our own and those of the great in litera- ture - which is the concern of the English depart- ment. lt is also this knowledge of the correct use of the word that will give depth to your thinking, cour- age for your actions, and understanding of your- selves and of your fellow students. You have only as many ideas as you have words with which to express those ideas. It is not enough barely to communicate with your fellow man, a sav- age can do this. It is necessary today that you do more: use your language proudly and correctly. Only then do you express your best selves. This is what the study of English is all about! lt is not always fun, but if you choose to make it so, it is always rewarding. ,gig his Mrs. Martha Aston explains the purpose of modern poetry and drama. .
