This task and privilege is to direct the students' attempts to understand and to be un- derstood, so that these attempts may be chan- neled in the most beneficial trends and bring about the most desirable results. Major objectives in the English classes are to increase skills in reading, listening, observing, thinking, writing, and speaking. When a stu- dent is master of each of these developed steps of education, he has a better knowledge of him- self and others, and a means to make himself understood. 3 dl Mrs. Hazel Mrs. Margaret Mrs. Josephine Davis Burns DeSalvo English English, Typing English Miss Mina Mr. Put Fields Hartsfield English English Speech Football Coach N.
