CARTHAGE COLLEGE 11
"A College with an Ideal," which aims to educate
young men and young women to be the best possible citizens
of the age. The aim of the instruction is less to train
specialists than to give such knowledge as belongs to a well-
rounded education. Carthage College provides the liberal
training and culture which are the prerequisites of a success-
ful university course.
We tolerate only the best of ideals, personal influence,
teaching methods, and standards of character. The College
spirit is inspirational and elevating. A progressive, youth-
ful and persistent spirit pervades all college activities. The
highest and best of life's goals are placed before each
student; then conscientious and faithful efforts are put forth
to enable each one to attain and achieve.
The College ideal is not a large student body. Carthage
aims to produce truly cultured and refined, liberally edu-
cated, diligent, spirited and dauntless men and women of
pure and strong character. The College is not operated for
gain or selfish ends, but for the welfare of honest, hopeful
and worthy young people who wish the priceless gifts of
correct education.
Carthage College was founded in 1870 by representative
citizens of Carthage, Illinois, and special commissioners
appointed for the purpose by the English Evangelical
Lutheran Synods of Illinois and Iowa, under whose direction
the first President (D. L. Tressler, Ph. D.) was elected, and
the main building was constructed and dedicated. The first
class was graduated in 1875. After the death of President
Tressler in 1880, the stock of the institution was transferred
to the Synods interested, and the College is now controlled
12 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
by the Evangelical Lutheran Synods of Northern Illinois, of
Central Illinois, of Southern Illinois, of Iowa, and the Wart-
burg Synod, by whom all the trustees are nominated. On
the Board of Trustees, in addition to the representatives from
these Synods, there are three from Hancock County, and
one from the Alumni Association, all elected by the stock-
holders appointed by the Synods. The institution is thus
conducted under the auspices of the General Synod of the
Evangelical Lutheran Church in the United States of
America, and has been as.sisted financially for the last
sixteen years by the Board of Education in the increase of
the endowment fund, and by direct contributions toward the
current expenses.
^Location anb ^uU6lngs.
Carthage College is located at Carthage, the county seat
of Hancock County, Illinois. It is a pleasant inland town
of over twenty-five hundred inhabitants. It is a quiet,
healthful and temperate community, which has not licensed
the liquor traffic for more than thirty years, and is thus
well-adapted to academic and college life. The citizens are
cultured and hospitable, and deeply interested in the College
and the students, to whom the homes are open constantly,
Carthage is situated twelve miles east of Keokuk, Iowa, and
midway between Burlington, Iowa, and Quincy, Illinois.
Lines of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy and the Wabash
systems pass through the city, and the main line of the
Toledo, Peoria and Western railroad passes four miles to the
north, connecting at Ferris for Carthage. New students, upon
writing to the President, can receive all needed information.
The campus comprises about eighteen acres of improved
and timbered grounds, situated in the northeast portion of
the city, about eight blocks from the public square, and
slightly elevated above the rest of the town.
LOCATION AND BUILDINGS 13
The main building is a large brick structure of three
stories and basement. It has been improved and beautified
recently at an expense of several thousand dollars; is furn-
ished with modern conveniences, and is in all respects both
attractive and well-adapted to the work of the institution.
In addition to the large, well-lighted recitation rooms and
laboratories, are to be found the College Chapel, the Christian
Association chapel, the library and reading-room, and the
literary society halls.
Denhart Hall for young ladies is situated on the west
side of the campus, and is a beautiful two-story brick cottage
with basement, capable of accommodating thirty students.
It is heated by steam and is furnished with lavatories and
baths. The dining-hall and refectory are located in the base-
ment, while a double pai'lor and music room add to its social
attractiveness. Mrs. Harris, the matron, has proved herself
exceptionally capable in her care of the young ladies, and in
every respect Denhart Hall has been found to be a beautiful
and comfortable home for them.
The gymnasium is a handsome building. It was erected
in 1905-6 at a cost of twelve thousand dollars, and is now
being used by classes in physical culture. The building is
43x91 feet on the outside, giving available floor space inside
of 40x88 feet, and is fully equipped with apparatus of the best
quality, with running track and hot and cold baths.
The laboratories of the College furnish all that is essential
for successful laboratory work in the usual undergraduate
courses. The Biological Laboratory is equipped with com-
pound microscopes, dissecting microscopes, microtomes,
baths, aquaria, and such other apparatus, glassware and
reagents as are needed in the study of the morphology and
histology of plants and animals. The laboratory has been
fitted up with students' desks, drawers and lockers, and
with cabinets to accommodate our various collections in
Natural History, Geology and Mineralogy. The Chemical
14 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
Laboratory is furnished with individual desks and lockers to
accommodate twenty-four students, and is provided with all
the apparatus, glassware and reagents needed for experi-
mental work in general chemistry. The Physical Laboratory
is a large, well-lighted room, fitted with tables for individual
work, water supply and all necessary apparatus, balances,
barometer, etc.
The College Library contains about seven thousand
volumes and several thousand pamphlets. The collection is
classified according to the Dewey decimal system, and is
furnished with complete card catalogues of authors and sub-
jects. A large number of books have been added by dona-
tions and purchase within the past few years, and the
collection now contains the books most essential for under-
graduate work in the various departments. The following
additions have been made during the current year:
Bound Magazines 148 Volumes
U. S. Government 38
Purchase 53
Book Review 15
State of Illinois 14
University of Illinois 7
Smithsonian Institution 5
Bross Lecture Foundation 4
Miscellaneous 110
Total number of volumes 394
Grateful acknowledgment is hereby extended to all
donors.
The two literary societies have good collections of books,
to which standard works are being added annually. Each
society has invested funds, the interest of which is used for
library purposes. Cicero Society has recently placed its col-
lection in the College Library, and thrown it open to the use
STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS 15
of all students. The Public Library of Carthage, containing
several thousand volumes, is open to the students, while
the private libraries of the members of the Faculty are also
accessible for studies upon special topics.
The Reading Room has been furnished with tables,
shelves, magazine case, newspaper rack, et cetera, and is open
daily except Saturday from 8:15 until 12 a. m., and from 1:15
until 4:30 p. m.; on Saturday the hours are from 9 until 11
a. m. The library is open during the same hours. The
reading room is equipped with the best scientific and literary
magazines and many of the best religious and secular papers.
Stuicnt Organizations.
Two societies — Galileo, organized in 1870, and Cicero,
organized a year later — are sustained in connection with the
College. Through the medium of these, students get val-
uable aid in composition, delivery, debate and parliamentary
practice, besides opportunities for social culture. All Col-
legiate and Senior Academic students are required to unite
with one or the other of these societies, and to perform a
prescribed amount of literary work annually. Each of the
societies occupies a large, attractive hall, handsomely furn-
ished for literary and social purposes.
The Young Men's Christian Association, which was organ-
ized in 1881, has exerted a marked influence upon the life
and character of the students during the years since. Prayer
meetings are held on each Tuesday evening. The Young
Women's Christian Association is a flourishing organization,
which holds a service every Monday evening. It receives
the cordial support of all the young women of the College.
Devotional Bible study and missionary classes have been
conducted by both associations. Each association sends del-
egates every summer to the Geneva Conference of College
Students. New students are urged to unite with these asso-
16 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
ciations, and will do well to avail themselves of the assistance
which is offered them at the opening of each year.
The Glee Club, an organization of young men, led by the
head of the vocal department, made a very successful concert
tour during the spring term.
The Athletic Association is a voluntary student organiza-
tion which affords the students opportunity to participate in
the conduct of business touching the College athletics.
The Dramatic Club consists of a limited number of
students who have qualified in the Department of Expression.
The purpose of the club is to promote interest in dramatic
literature and art.
The Brain and Brawn is a society composed of students
who have distinguished themselves for scholarship, or have
won prizes on the athletic field.
Religious (Tulture.
The tone of the institution has been positively religious
since the beginning. It is the purpose of the institution
under the newly organized Department of Biblical Instruction,
to afford every student an opportunity to gain, during his
course, a thorough and systematic knowledge of Biblical
History and Literature; also, to give training in Christian
work for those who desire it. A marked feature of the
religious life of the institution is the intimate relation existing
between the students and the local congregations. Besides
the English Lutheran church, whose pastor. Rev. S. N.
Carpenter, is regarded as College pastor, and the German
Lutheran congregation, there are represented in Carthage
organizations of the Baptist, the Catholic, the Christian, the
Episcopal, the Methodist Episcopal, and the Presbyterian
denominations. Students from any of these branches of the
Christian church are encouraged to attend services of their
own denomination and to become regularly identified with its
religious work.
PUBLICATIONS — SCHOLARSHIPS 17
"Publications.
The literary societies of the College publish a monthly
journal — The Collegian — which is edited by a staff of
editors chosen from the societies. This paper is the organ
of the student body, and is helpful in stimulating literary
activity among them. It also affords the Alumni, friends,
and patrons of the college the best means of keeping in
touch with the life and work of the institution.
The College publishes a bi-monthly Bulletin, the purpose
of which is to keep friends and patrons informed of the work
of the institution, and of improvement and progress in all
lines of college activity. There is no charge for subscription,
ond all persons interested may have their names added to the
mailing list by addressing a request to the President.
Sct)olars^lf»5.
Free tuition for one year is annually offered to that
member of the Senior class of Carthage High School who
shall receive the highest average grade in scholarship
during the year. Miss Grace Kunkel, of Carthage, wag
the recipient last year.
A similar scholarship is awarded to that member of the
Senior class of the Academy whose average for the year is
the highest. This scholarship was awarded last year to Mr.
Frank Fleming, of Denver.
The W. C. T. U. of the county annually purchases a
scholarship good for one year, which is awarded by a com-
petitive examination in physiology.
A scholarship in the Academy is annually awarded to
that student in the schools of Hancock County who receives
the highest average grade in the county central examination
for the year.
In general, it is the policy of Carthage College to meet all
18 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
competition, and young people holding scholarships given by
other institutions for excellence in scholarship, can usually
receive the same privilege here. Correspondence along this
line is invited.
"Prizes.
Mr. Leon W. Berry, of the city of Carthage, offers annu-
ally a gold medal to that regular member of the Freshman
class who secures the highest average grade in all studies
pursued during the year. Mr. Lynn O. Welge, of Hillsboro,
received the medal at the last commencement.
Mr. Ed Hoch, of the city of Carthage, offers annually a
gold medal to that member of the Greek class who excels
in final competitive examination. This medal was last year
awarded to Miss Ruth Schell, of Polo.
The Board of Trustees offers a gold medal to that member
of the Junior class who, under the supervision of the Faculty,
shall produce the best original oration at the Junior oratori-
cal entertainment, regard being had for both thought and
delivery.
'Jacditii.s for Sclf-lKelp.
While we cannot promise opportunities for earning sup-
port to all who may desire it, there are means for helping a
limited number to defray or to reduce their expenses. A
portion of the janitor service in the main building and in
Denhart Hall is being performed by students at present.
Offices, residences and a few stores in town furnish a number
of students with employment. A few students are earning
their way in homes. Several young people are meeting a
portion of their expenses by table service, while others are
adding to their income by management of laundry agencies
among the students and in the community. During the
coming year a number of young men and young women will
be needed to render service in the institution, for which
credit will be given them on their tuition and other expenses.
GOVERNMENT 19
All the young ladies from a distance will be expected to
room and board in Denhart Hall, where comfortable and
convenient rooms are provided at a very moderate expense.
The rooms are carpeted and furnished with bedsteads, springs,
mattress, bureau, washstand, toilet set. chairs, table and
book shelves, and are heated by steam. Connected with
each room are two clothes presses. Pillows, pillowslips,
sheets, spreads and blankets are supplied; hence young
ladies need bring with them only towels and napkins.
As the cottage is limited to thirty students, all persons
desiring to secure their rooms should make application as soon
as possible, indicating any preferences. Board is furnished
at $2.50 a week; the charge for inside rooms, furnished, is 50
cents a week; for corner rooms, 75 cents a week. An addi-
tional charge of 50 cents a week will be made for students
rooming alone, provided it is possible to furnish single rooms.
During the year a number of rooms have been beautified at
the expense of friends of the College.
Young men can find comfortable homes near the College
and good board at reasonable rates — $2.50 to $2.75 per week;
or they may secure boarding at the regular rates at the
dining-room of Denhart Hall.
(Government.
The government of the institution is vested in the Faculty,
who administer the discipline and impose such penalties for
violation of good order as seem to be required. As a rule,
little more than friendly admonition is required to preserve
order among the students, and the purpose is to retain only
such students as may conduct themselves in gentlemanly or
ladylike manner, giving attention to the work undertaken by
the school and recognizing the claims of their professors and
fellow students in all their relations. Should any student be
20 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
found unfaithful to his duties or unworthy of the respect of
his associates, he will be summarily dealt with, both for his
own good and the general welfare of the institution. Stu-
dents who have failed to conduct themselves properly in
other institutions are not wanted in Carthage College.
A proper care for the health and good name of the young
ladies is exercised; and, while their privileges are restricted
to certain hours and days, it will in no way interfere with
their social pleasures or culture. The aim will be constantly
to develop a spirit of industry, fidelity, truthfulness and good
order, while only such restrictions will be imposed upon any
student as may be required to maintain the authority of the
Faculty or to advance the best interests of the institution.
^crms anb Vacations.
The school year of the three regular departments consists
of thirty-six weeks, divided into two semesters of equal
length. There are two vacations — the usual holiday vacation
lasting about two weeks, and the long summer vacation of
about thirteen weeks after commencement. By this arrange-
ment students can pursue their studies through the school
year, and needy students can make the very best use of the
long vacation for procuring means of support while at school.
Students may enter any of the departments at any time, but
the best results are secured by those who commence at the
beginning of the year or the beginning of a semester.
^Expenses.

TLegacles.
It is highly important that all friends of the College
should interest themselves in increasing the endowment fund
of the institution as rapidly as possible. To this end much
service can be rendered by those who have been prospered in
temporal things by remembering the institution with lega-
cies. Too often those who could contribute a few hundred
dollars hesitate because of the comparative smallness of the
amount, while by their example as well as by the aggregate
of such contributions, they could materially assist the institu-
tion to a large permanent fund. Only one professorship has
thus far been endowed— The David L. Tressler Professorship
of Mental and Moral Philosophy— to which the heirs of Fred-
erick William Klemme, Henry Denhart and Andrew Hans
have each contributed at least $1000.
In making bequests, care should be taken to use the
correct and full cAporate title of the College; also to state
clearly the amount of the bequest, and the special use, if
any, for which it may be designed. The following general
form of bequest is recommended :
"I give, devise and bequeath to Carthage College,
Carthage, IlHnois, the sum of $ (or if real estate or
other property, describe accurately), said funds to be held by
it and applied to the endowment fund of Carthage College
(or if for any other purpose, state clearly). But in case the
College should cease to be controlled by the General Synod
of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in the United States of
America, or a Synod or Synods belonging thereto, said money
or proceeds shall revert to the Board of Education of said
General Synod for the support of some other General Synod
college in the present Carthage College territory."
ADMISSION 23
Requirements for Admission,
Candidates for admission must present satisfactory testi-
monials of good moral character; certificates of honorable
dismissal are required of those vvhocomefrom other colleges.
The scholarship requirements for admission to the Freshman
class are based upon four years of secondary school work,
with four daily recitations. A daily recitation throughout a
year constitutes a unit of credit. Four years of secondary
school work, therefore, will constitute sixteen units of credit,
and sixteen units are required for unconditional admission to
the Freshman class. These credits are to be offered in
harmony with the outline of subjects given below, with the
understanding that the time assigned in every case is simply
a convenient average and that the work outlined must have
been completed.
Students coming from high schools and academies of
recognized standing are admitted on certificate of scholar-
ship and character without examination, as far as they have
pursued the required preparatory studies. Candidates for
admission without condition to the Freshman class, who are
unable to offer a sufficient ni:mber of satisfactory credits,
will be given the opportunity to secure such standing by
means of written examinations.
Blank forms of application for admission may be secured
from the President or Registrar. These should be filled out
and returned before Registration Day.
Students will not be admitted to Freshman classification
with an arrearage of more than two credits. Any deficiency
must be made up during the Freshman and Sophomore years.
Standing secured by certificate is only for the first semester,
that semester being regarded as probationary. The student's
subsequent rank depends upon the results of his work.
24 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
All candidates for admission must ofifer the following
subjects :
English 3 units
History 1 unit
Mathematics 2% units
Foreign Language 4 units
Laboratory Science 1 unit
And four and one-half units additional, chosen in
harmony with the College course to be pursued. The follow-
ing list indicates the subjects that may be offered, together
with the amount of credit allowed in each:

and rhetoric, including the study of standard texts, and suf-
ficient practice in composition to insure a fair degree of pro-
COURSES AND REQUIREMENTS 25
ficiency in writing in English. The student is expected to
be able to give unity and coherence to his ideas, and to con-
struct correctly the three units of discourse, — the sentence,
the paragraph, and the essay. This presupposes correctness
of orthography and grammar, and knowledge of the simpler
principles of punctuation.
2. The reading and study of classics recommended
for uniform college requirements by the Committee of Col-
lege Entrance Requirementjs in English. This incUules :
a. The four classics for study and practice selected by
the Committee.
b. Ten classics for reading, to be chosen from the six
groups recommended by the Committee.
II. FOREIGN LANGUAGE :
Four units of foreign language are required. This
must include at least two units of Latin. Those who expect
to take Latin in the College must present two additional
units, making in all four units of Latin.
Latin :
1. Collar & Daniell's /Vrj/ Latin Book. Latin Gram-
mar: Allen & Greenough, Harkness or Bennett.
2. Via Latina, Caesar, four books of the Gallic War.
3. Cicero ; four orations against Cataline, for Roscius,
for Archias.
4. Vergil, ^neid, Books i.-iv., with prosody.
5. Prose Composition, thirty lessons of Bennett's Latin
Prose Composition.
Greek :
1. White's Beginner s Greek Book. Goodwin's Greek
Grammar.

3. Prose Composition; the equivalent of the first twenty
lessons of Jones' Greek Prose Composition.
26 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
III. MATHEMATICS:
1. Arithmetic Complete.
2. Algebra, through Quadratics. Wells' Essentials
of Algebra^ or equivalent.
3. Geometry, Plane; Phillips & Fisher, or equivalent.
4. Geometry, Solid, Phillips & Fisher, or equivalent.
IV. HISTORY.
1. United States. Channing's Students'' History of
the United States, or equivalent. The United
States History studied in the Public Schools
below the ninth grade will not be accepted as
meeting entrance requirements.
2. Ancient History. Botsford's Ancient History^ or
its equivalent.
3. Mediaeval History. Munro's Media^inil History^
or its equivalent.
4. English History. Cheyney's Short History of
Engl and, or its equivalent.
V. GERMAN:
As a test of the student's elementary preparation,
he should be able to read at sight, and to translate, if
called upon, a passage of easy dialogue or narrative prose,
help being given upon unusual words or constructions, to
put into German short English sentences taken from the
language of every day life, or based on the text translated,
and to answer questions on the rudiments of grammar, as
defined below.
1. Pronunciation, the memorizing and use of easy collo-
quial sentences; the rudiments of grammar, inflection of the
articles, ordinary nouns, adjectives, pronouns, weak verbs,
and the more usual strong verbs ; the use of the more com-
mon prepositions ; the simpler uses of modal auxiliaries and
the elementary rules of syntax and word order; abundant
REOUIREMEXTS FOR ADMISSION 27
exercises ; the reading of from seventy-five to one hundred
pages of graduated texts.
2. The reading of from one hundred and fifty to two
hundred pages of literature in the form of easy plays and
stories ; translation into German of matter based upon works
read ; continued drill upon rudiments of grammar.
VI. SCIENCE:
The preparation must include both text book and
laboratory work ; and the candidate should submit his note-
book. It is recommended that an entire year be devoted
to one Science, except Physiology and Physiography, and
credit will not be granted for less than one unit of Chemistry
or Physics.
1. Elementary Biology (one unit). The requirement
in Biology may be met by one-half unit in Botany and one-
half unit in Zoology. It is recommended, however, that the
entire unit be offered in one of these sciences. In any
case, laboratory work must constitute an important part of
the course.
2. Elementary Chemistry (one unit.) The work
offered in Chemistry must include recitations and labora-
tory work for one year. The ground covered should be
essentially that of the best elementary text books on general
Chemistry.
3. Physiography (one-half unit). The course should
include supplemental work as well as the study of some
good modern textbook.
4. Physiology. A study of some standard elementary
textbook, s^ipplemented by laboratory work. The Physiology
studied in the Public School below the ninth grade will not
be accepted as meeting entrance requirements.
5. Physics. The requirement in Physics is sufficiently
outlined in any one of several good modern textbooks of
28 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
Elementary Physics. Of these Milliken & Gale's "-4 First
Course in Physics, is preferred.
T^ivancci StanMng.
Students who present letters of honorable dismissal
from other colleges of recognized rank may be admitted to
advanced standing subject to adjustment. Credit toward
a college degree will be allowed for work done in college
preparatory schools and high schools only when upon inves-
tigation such work is found to be equal in time, quality and
thoroughness to the same work done in college classes.
In no case will the baccalaureate degree be granted for
less than one year of resident work in Carthage College.
(Tourses of ^restructlon.
The College Department embraces the usual four years
of study in the regular classes.
In order to provide for the proper correlation of subjects
and for an adequate range of election and adaptation to
individual needs, the courses offered are arranged in a limited
number of groups. This arrangement, while practically
limiting election in the Freshmen and Sophomore years to
the choice of one of several groups of logically correlated
subjects, allows a considerable range of free electives in the
Junior and Senior years. It is not the purpose of this
arrangement to secure, nor to prevent, early specialization,
but to control and direct it. It is believed that too close
specialization in the early years of the course defeats the
only true end of college training, namely, the attainment of
such broad and liberal culture as alone can lay the foundation
for the highest possible success in any calling in life. It is
not forgotten, however, that students may wish to specialize
after they have finished their college course. To such the
group system gives the opportunity of emphasizing their
GRADUATION 29
chosen subjects, while to all are secured the manifest ad-
vantages of proper correlation, and a continuous study of
the subjects which by common consent are recognized as
fundamental in any scheme of liberal education. In short,
the group system aims to combine the advantages of the rigid
course system with those of the free elective systems, and
while avoiding in a measure at least the dangers of each to
maintain a proper balance between educational control on
the one hand and individual freedom of choice, often uncon-
sidered, on the other. Each group offers the opportunity of
a well-rounded, liberal education, while preventing the waste
and dissipation of energy incident to unlimited election.
Requirements for (Graduation.
In all courses the requirement for graduation is 130 college
credits. A college credit represents one semester hour of
work — that is, one recitation per week for one semester; two
hours of laboratory or seminar work counting as one hour of
recitation. In adjusting the work and standing of students
with entrance conditions, a four or five-hour academy course
is counted as a three-hour course in college.
Classification.
The class to which a student is assigned depends on the
number of credits on record in the books of the Registrar at
the opening of the year. In counting credits the number of
conditions outstanding against any name will be subtracted
from the full number of credits.
Students lacking more than two units of preparatory
work, as explained in requirements for admission, will be
classed as academy students. Those meeting the entrance
requirements with an arrearage of not more than two units
of credit are ranked as Freshmen. The requirements for
advanced standing are as follows: Sophomore, a minimum
30 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
of 28 college credits; full standing, 36 credits; Junior, a min-
imum of 60; full standing, 68 credits; Senior, a minimum of
94; full standing, 102; graduation, a minimum of 130 credits.
(Tbolce of (Bourses.
All students entering the College have the privilege of
choosing, in consultation with the President, their group of
subjects. A group once fully entered upon must be pursued
to the end of the Freshman year, unless a change be granted
by special action of the Faculty. If at the end of the first
year a new selection is desired, this will be permitted so far
as the prerequisite requirements in other groups have been
met.
No student is permitted to acquire more than eighteen
college credits per semester except by a special action of
the Faculty, and no application from a Freshman for more
than eighteen hours for his first semester will be considered,
except that a Freshman may be allowed by the Faculty to
take additional work in order to remove entrance conditions.
The maximum number of credits that may by Faculty action
be granted to any student in any year is as follows:
Freshmen 36, Sophomores 40, Juniors 44.
Special Students.
Students who do not desire to pursue a regular course
of study may pursue a select course, if they are prepared to
take the work of the regular classes pursuing those branches.
Such students must take the examinations with the regular
class, are subject to all rules and regulations of the College,
and are expected to take sufficient work to occupy their
time.
The following representative groups are offered. Other
combinations will be made to accommodate students who are
REPRESENTATIVE GROUPS

preparing for subsequent work in medicine or engineering.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts is conferred on students who
have completed the requirements in Group A; the degree of
Bachelor of Science on those who have completed Group S
or Group G, and those who complete Group L will be granted
the degree of Bachelor of Literature:

GERMAN LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE.
PROFESSOR SUNDSTROM.
In the instruction in this department, three objects are
kept constantly in view :
First — To give a practical reading knowledge of German,
so that students preparing for professional careers, in teach-
ing, literature, theology, law, medicine, science, etc., may
be prepared to read and understand such foreign books as
may be required in their respective curricula. Sight reading
forms a part of the course.

literature, both classic and modern, and develop in him a
proper conception of its value, and an appreciation of the
German idiom. The author of each selection is studied.
Original papers are prepared on the subject matter read.
Songs and lyrics are memorized.
Third — To help the student acquire the ability to speak
the language. Questions and answers in German and original
reproductions of the story form a part of almost every reci-
tation, the object being so to implant the fundamental
principles of the language that when the opportunity comes
to use it in daily speech the task will be simple.
The following courses are offered :
I. Elementary Course. Four recitations a week
throughout the year. The time is devoted to the acquisition
of a correct pronunciation, mastery of inflectional forms, the
ability to write German script, and the principles of sentence

WORK OF THE ACADEMY
The Academy is under the immediate direction of the
Faculty of the College. This direction is controlled by a
two-fold purpose. In the first place, the design is to offer
preparation for College, which will be sufficient in quality
and quantity to admit a student to any college or university.
In the second place the work of the Academy is designed
to furnish for young men and women who may be denied
the advantage of a college course, as much training and
culture as is possible in four years of secondary school
work, under the most favorable conditions of atmosphere
and environment.
Sixteen units of credit are required for graduation. A
unit is the amount of work involved in five (or four) recita-
tions each week for an entire year. Each student in the
Academy is expected to pursue regularly not more than five
subjects, one of which shall be Bible study (two hours), in
all aggregating not more than twenty recitation periods per
week. Deviation from this arrangement can be made only
with the approval of the Faculty. Ordinarily four years
will be necessary to secure the required sixteen units of
credit; nevertheless, students of maturity of mind and in
good health may be able to meet the requirements in less
time, and will be given every opportunity to do .so.
The subjects required of students preparing for subse-
quent work in college are indicated under college entrance
requirements on page 23.
Students who desire to take a general course in the
Academy without preparing for College will be permitted to
ACADEMIC COURSES OF STUDY 55
enter any classes for which their previous training fits them,
provided the studies selected do not conflict on the schedule
of recitations.
Students who have finished the eighth year work in the
public schools of the county and schools of similar grade,
will be prepared to enter the first-year class of the Academy,
Diplomas will be granted to all students who have com-
pleted any one of the regular courses of the Academy.
The graduates of our Academy are entitled to admission
on certificate to any of the institutions having membership
in the North Central Association of Universities and Col-
leges. This association is composed of all the leading
universities and colleges of the north central states, includ-
ing Ohio on the east and Kansas and Colorado on the
south and west.

BIBLE TRAINING DEPARTMENT.
UPON THE JOHN C. MARTIN FOUNDATION.
This department was brought into existence by the gen-
erosity of Mr. John C. Martin of New York City, and aims
to meet a genuine need of the young people of today.
The Bible has had a tremendous influence upon the
literature, education, and civilization of mankind. One who
would thoroughly understand history must have a more or
less complete knowledge of the .Scriptures. Bible study is
receiving greater attention today than ever before. Many
eminent scholars have devoted their lives to the study and
teaching of its truths. In harmony with this new interest
in the great source Book, and in answer to the needs of the
age, Carthage College offers a strong course of instruction
of instruction in Biblical History, Literature, Philosophy,
Ethics, Archaeology, and Pedagogy. The textbooks have
been prepared bj' experts in this country and abroad, and
are used in the best schools of the land.
For detailed information, see description under Biblical
History and Literature, page 34; and also an outline of
academy studies, pages 55 and 56. For complete informa-
tion, address the President.

SPECIAL COURSES OF INSTRUCTION
MUSIC.
VOICE.
MISS DAVIDSON.
This department will retain all that has proved merito-
rious in the teaching methods of the past, and keep in
touch with and utilize the best in modern methods. It is
the aim of this department to develop the musical tastes
and capabilities of each pupil.
The following course is open to those who are capable
of acceptably doing the work. It is not necessarj' that
the pupil should be highly gifted musically, but he should
have a natural love for music, a fair degree of health, a
correct ear, and freedom from any abnormal condition of
the vocal organs.
No definite length of time can be specified for the com-
pleting of this course, as the voices of some will develop
more rapidly than others, and as some will more readily
accomplish the work than others. As a rule no one should
hope to graduate from this department under twenty years
of age, as a young, undeveloped voice is incapable of doing
the work prescribed in the latter part of the course.
FIRST YEAR.
Breathing, tone production, voice placing. Exercises for
tone development and flexibility. Sight reading, enunciation,
artistic interpretation and expression. Marzo's The Art of
Vocalizatio7i. Songs by Ries, Lassen, Greig and Franz.

£S FOURTH YEAR.
Continued study of classic songs by the great composers.
Further selections from oratorios and operas, including a
more comprehensive study of the Wagner operas. Broader

to the great choruses from the oratorios and operas. The
class is open to all who have sufficient musical knowledge
to do the work.
60 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
PIANO DEPARTMENT.
MISS KOCH.
It is the aim of this department to give to those w
come under its supervision the best musical education pos
ble, and to awaken aspirations for the highest ideals in i
and everyday life as well. To do this, pupils are advised
take as much of the theoretical work as possible in additi^
to the work in piano. In order to stimulate greater intere:
pupils are urged to make use of every opportunity to he
good music, and to keep in touch with the happenings of t
musical world. To further broaden their ability to interpr(
pupils are urged to avail themselves of their opportuniti
and take courses in other departments as they have time f
them. The following course of study is not rigidly followe
but selections are made as the need and individuality of t
pupil require, as it is the aim of the department to devel
well-rounded musicians, capable of expressing iudividv
ideas in the interpretation of the compositions studie
Mere mechanical skill will therefore not suffice. Such sl^
is simply a means in interpretation.
ELEMENTARY.

their application in such compositions as the foUowinj
Mrs. Crosby Adams' First Lessons at the Piano; Tchi
kowsky's Album for the Young, Schumann's Albuin J

Intermezzos, Beethoven's Sonatas, Schumann Sonata
Etudes Symphonic, Chopin's Etudes, Scherzos and Bal-
'■s, Liszt's Etudes and Concertos, Saint Saen's Concerto,
lenstein's Concerto, etc.
EQUIPMENT.
There are in the piano teacher's studio, which is situated
he main building, two pianos, an upright and a grand,
a clavier. A Mason & Hamlin grand piano is kept at
Trinity Lutheran Church, where all recitals are held, for
tal use only. Several practice rooms are available for
;e who desire to practice at the college.
ENSEMBLE CLASS.
To develop the pupils in ability to read at sight and in
iracy of rhythm, ensemble work is given once a week,
extra charge is made, and the work is open to all capable
loing it. Compositions which can be arranged for two
los, but not readily adapted for solo work, such as the
rak A^ew World Symphony, are used.
TECHNIQUE.
Special work in technique will be given either in classes
rivately. Different technical forms will be studied, fol-
;d by a study of the Chopin, Schumann and Liszt Etudes
m from a technical standpoint.
NORMAL TRAINING.
This work is open only to those whom the teacher con-
rs ready for such a course. The pupil must be taking
62 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
other work in the department and be far enough advanced
to understand the subject matter which will be discussed.
A study of the muscles of the arm and hand, their functions
and the means of developing them, will be taken up. A
review of the different kinds of technique and their uses
will be made, also a review of the rules and principles of
phrasing, interpretation, rhythm and reading. The matter
of selecting pieces suitable for different types of individuals
and their needs, will be thoroughly discussed. The lectures
will be practically illustrated by actually teaching in the
presence of the class. Teaching work will be assigned each
member, and the result criticised before the class.
RECITALS.
Frequent recitals are given by the pupils capable of
taking part, so as to accustom them to playing in public and
that all may become familiar with the various compositions
being studied. Numerous recitals are also given by the
faculty of the music department. Other opportunities for
hearing good music are offered by the college organizations,
such as the Boys' Glee Club, the Girls' Glee Club, Choral
Society; and the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A., who furnish several
musical numbers in their annual lecture course.
The requirements for completing a course, are a year's
work in the history of music, two years of harmony and an
amount of work in piano deemed satisfactory to the in-
structors, the length of time depending upon the ability
and industry of the pupil.
ORGAN.
Those' intending to take work in pipe organ playing, are
urged to supplement it with work on the piano and in the
theory of music, when possible. The fundamental princi-
ples of technique, both manual and pedal, rhythm, sight
reading and phrasing are taught. Especial attention is
ORGAN— HARMONY WORK. 63
paid to interpretation and registration. Such works as
Lemmen's Organ School, Mendelssohn's Organ Sonatas,
Bach's Fugues, Guilmant's Practical Organist, Dubois'
Toccata, are used.
HARMONY.
Two years will be required satisfactorily to complete
the course in harmony. The work may be taken privately
or in classes, either once or twice a week. Foote and
Spaulding's Hartnony will be used as a text. The work
will include study in ear training in connection with the
other requirements. Especial attention is given to original
composition.
HISTORY.
The course in the history of music is intended to cover
a year's work. Untersteiner's History of Music will be
used as a text, supplemented by outside reading.
RULES AND REGULATIONS.
Instructors are not required to make up lessons lost
through the absence of a pupil.
No deductions will be made for omitted lessons except
in case of protracted illness.
Special vocal coaching for work outside the course will
be given only to advanced pupils, and then on the condition
that it does not interfere with the regular work.
Two years of ensemble work are required of graduates
in the piano department.
All pupils are required to take part in pupils' recitals,
which will be given from time to time during the year.
A statement of the work done by the pupil will be given
if so desired.

EXPREvSSION.
MISS HOUSER.
It is the aim of this department to develop speakers whose
style shall be simple and natural, and, when occasion requires,
forceful. The great end is to develop the entire man, then
teach him to think and feel while on his feet before an audi-
ence, and to express those thoughts and emotions through
his own individuality. The speaker is educated, not by
fashioning him after a certain model, but by quickening and
developing the intellectual faculties, cultivating the imagi-
nation, then leaving him free to express his thoughts and
emotions; hence the pupil is not the imitator of the teacher.
After the student has had general preparation, he is required
to study as many literary masterpieces, great poems, orations,
etc., as the time will permit.
Voice Culture. This is of the first importance, as the
voice, when free and unrestricted by defects or misuse, is a
true reporter of the soul. It must respond to every impulse
of thought, will and passion. First, we find the true voice.
EXPRESSION— PHYSICAL CULTURE 65
and then develop this voice, that it may, in the most natural
and forcible manner convey the thought of the speaker to
the audience. (Correct breathing, articulation, range of
pitch, defect of speech — cause and cure, etc.)
Bodily Expression. A method of teaching gesture
which results in spontaneous and subtle gestures. It acts to
develop harmony, to suppress superriuous gesture, and pro-
duce a closer adjustment of form to content.
Life Study and Personation. The study and por-
trayal of living characters and the personation of characters
famous in literature. This cultivates the perceptive faculties
and encourages the timid student. It breaks up mannerisms
and develops unsuspected talent in expression,
terms.
One lesson a week (private), per semester $13 50
Two lessons a week (private), per semester 22 50
Classes of three, two lessons a week, per semester 7 50
Single lessons (private) 75
No reduction for lessons missed except in case of illness,
and then only when lessons cannot be made up.
PHYSICAL CULTURE FOR WOMEN.
miss houser.
It is our aim. in this department to promote the physical
well-being of each student, that the body may be made the
-sustaining and propelling power for the student's mental
activity during the whole period of her college training, and
also fitted for the performance of the duties of later life.
The importance of daily exercise is emphasized, and the work
undertaken of correcting physical irregularities and of pro-
moting grace and ease in carriage. A variety of exercises
is used, comprising esthetic exercises and drills for general
physical development, both with and without apparatus.
66 CARTHAGE COLLEGE
PHYSICAL CULTURE FOR MEN.
MR. BAIRD.
Every man in college is required to take two hours'
gymnasium work per week, or its equivalent in out-door
athletics, for which one-half of a credit is given.
During the fall the men play football and have a mod-
erate number of games scheduled with other institutions of
learning, the object being to give added interest in out-door
exercise by giving men something extra for which to play,
besides the mere daily routine. Men gain an additional
benefit by meeting others in clean, honest games.
Carthage College can boast of a better gymnasium than
many institutions of five or six times its enrollment. After
Thanksgiving the men go into the gymnasium, taking regu-
lar drills in Indian club, bar bell, dumb bells and free hand
movements, together with work on the French horse,
ladders, parallel and horizontal bars. Much interest is
taken in basket ball, and teams from neighboring schools
and cities are played.
After March 1, track athletics are taken up and in-door
and out-door interclass meets are held; also track meets with
as many other colleges as time will permit.
The College Athletic Field is well equipped with 120-
yard cinder path, jumping and vaulting places, ample room
for the hurling of the weights, a good bluegrass gridiron, a
quarter-mile track and base-ball diamond. It is convenient
to the gymnasium, and is not surpassed by any such fields
in this part of the country.
Carthage College's ideal of a man is one who is intel-
lectual, and who has a physique which is not a disgrace to
his intellect.
