REPORT OF THE LITERARY DEPART 1E T.
To nr. O. CONNOR p,.incipa
DEAR Sm: At the opening of the school term, my first efforts were to familiarize myself with the ability of the pupils in order to a sign them to the proper classes. I found many of them graded too high and some too low so by regrading and als by combining classes, I arranged to have better gracled classes and was able to give only one class to each teacher. In the advanced classes there is some rotation and the teachers are given pecial subjects.
In assigning teachers to classes, I endeavored to ascertain the grade work desired and also in the rotating classes the ubjects liked best deeming it wise to give the tea.chers work they were most interested in. This was done wherever po ible.
Since September there have been many changes in the make up of classes finding it necessary f r the good of the pupil to promote one or put one in a lower class, promotion being preferred wherever possible.
Special attention is being given to the speech of the oral classes to familiarize them with the element and combination charts, and also to the general improvement of the speech and voices. In some cases I can see marked improvement.
The intermediate oral cl sses have been held back somewhat in order to teach speech and speech reading of the language given in the years gone by. This was absolutely neccessary if the pupils were to remain in the oral department.
Quite a mumber of objects have been bought to be used in object and language teaching and are being used with good results.

16
One of the main features of the school work is to get the pupils interested in reading and for this purpose t.hirty or forty volumes of reader and story books have been purchased for supplementary reading and a period of twenty minutes ea h day during school hours, s t apart for this purpose.
The school i now very well graded but it will require a year more to make it more perfect.
The teacher entered into their work with exceptional enthusiasm and have been very earne t in thi work. They are ever willing to uphold their part of the tasks before them.
Several hav~ volunteered to bring up backward pupils out of shoal hours, thuFl showing their interest in the work.
With hearty thanks to the teachers of both departments for their co-operation and with grateful recognition of your kind help and advice, without which I could not have accomplished what I feel has been a go d beginning, I am,
Very respectfully yours,
XE'PfTE McDANIEL,
A <i/"'-trr.nt Pi"incipal. Decemb l' 31, 1907.
