ENGLISH The English Department offers two different courses of Work for the first three years. One is for those pupils whose background in English is scanty, or whose preparation in the grade schools has been poor. The other is for those more fortunate pupils who are better prepared to do high school work, and who intend to go to college. In each of these courses three semesters of composition and three of literature are required. Already in the Junior year, choice is permitted students in the A. B., or college course. In composition they may choose among a general Experi- ments in Writing courseg journalism, which class edits the Bulletin, the school newspaperg and argumentation and debate. In literature they may choose between a one semester study of the types of literature, or a two semester course in the history of English literature. Although only three years of study are required for graduation, the department offers a variety Top Rout: Luc-y Alt'XilIlll01'. Yes, 1171111 do ynu 171ink? ' Pearl IRFUXVII.

In bookkeeping a course is offered in the organization and administra- tion of business. The student displays a fair knowledge of the course by being able to close a set of Partnership or Corporation books, and to make Hnancial statements which show the results of transactions made during the fiscal periods. A real business standard has been introduced by adding a class in ofi-ice practice and procedure to the courses in stenography and typing. It is the purpose of the department to give to students who elect them, a skill in these technical subjects which will enable them to serve capably as office assistants, when graduated from high school.

The members of this class meet five times a Week in a regular class period, and form the editorial staff of the school magazine, The Venture. Seniors are also eligible for the semester course in drama. Three other courses popular with the seniors and often elected by them are the courses in American literature, Contemporary American and British literature, and Public Speaking. An English library, unusual in its scope and in the number of volumes it contains, is the pride of the department. To it many volumes have been added each year, and now it is one of the largest independent high school libraries in the country. The department also publishes seven different manuals to be used in the study of the different courses in literature. Top Noir: Iilliznlwtli Gmllaiii. Take out jirn xlmfefx of pu11r2V.
