Courses of Study.

■T}
Tn order to meet the wants of a larger class of Students, nine regular Courses
of Study are provided, namely: The Normal English, Belles Lettres, Science and
Literature, Classical, Practical Science, College Preparatory, Art, Music and Busi-
ness. Students may adopt any of these Courses exclusively, or may select such
studies from them as they desire, subject to the approval of the Faculty.
The Normal English is designed to meet the increasing demand for teachers
in our Common Schools, and is heartily commended to young ladies and gentle-
men who desire thorough instruction and drill in the English branches.
The Belles Lettres Course is especially arranged to accommodate young ladies
who may wish to omit the Higher Mathematics beyond Elementary Algebra and
Geometry. It thus affords opportunity to connect studies in Music and Art with
a well -selected Course in Literature and Science.
The Course in Science and Literature is intended to give wider culture and
more thorough mental discipline. It differs from the Classical Course mainly in
that it omits the Greek Language entirely, and makes Latin elective with German
or French during the first two years. Before entering upon this Course, the
Student must be tlioroughly acquainted with the Common English branches.
The Classical Course is much more extensive than is ordinarily pursued at
Seminaries. It will compare favorably with the curriculum adopted by our best
institutions of learning. We offer it with entire confidence to young men who are
preparing for professional life, and also to young ladies who aspire to superior
intellectual culture. The preparation for this Course is a thorough knowledge of
the studies embraced in the Academic Course.
The Practical Science Course covers the required preparation for admission to
schools of Technology and to Industrial Courses in our best Universities and
Colleges. However, it is specially arranged to meet the increasing demand for
scientific and literary instruction by those who contemplate an Academic training.
As a preparation for assured success in industrial occupations we heartily com-
mend it.
The College Preparatory Course is arranged for those who desire thorough
instruction and systematic drill in all branches requisite for admission to our best
Colleges and Universities. We commend it especially to parents who wish to
place their children under the watchful care of experienced teachers, while they
receive the literary culture of a high grade institution of learning, and enjoy the
social advantages of a well-regulated Christian home.

ADVANTAGES.
This department offers all the opportunities for general culture afforded
Students in other departments, assured by well conducted literary societies, lectures,
large libraries, association with experienced teachers, and the refining influences
of a Christian home.
ADMISSION.
Students may enter this department at any time in the Academic year, a fair
knowledge of the English branches being the only requisite.
if
ELOCUTION.
Elocution is recognized as a most important branch of education. This de-
partment is under the supervision of a thoroughly qualified and experienced
teacher, and will include a careful vocal drill, and practice in the entire range of
expression. It will also embody such a variety of Recitations and Readings as
may serve to exemplify the qualities and modulations of the voice, and will cover
gesture and action.
Six dollars per term of 12 weeks, in classes— 3G lessons. Private lessons, 50
cents each.
BUSINESS DEPARTMENT.
This Course is designed to give a thorough knowledge of the principles of
business transactions. It may be pursued alone or in connection with other studies,
thus accommodating those seeking a literary, as well as those seeking only a
business education. The time required to finish it will depend upon the pro-
ficiency of the pupil in the English branches, and the diligence with which he
works.
STUDIES.
The Course will include instruction in the Common English branches, Book-
keeping—Single and Double Entry— Business Correspondence, Business Papers
of various forms, Civil Government and Political Economy.
METHODS OF INSTRUCTION.
The instruction in the Primary Department is based on the inductive and
objective methods, classes having objects presented which are studied analytically.
Julia McNair Wright's Nature Readers have been introduced, where life is seen
in its natural development. Practical application of the ''natural method" and
the facts obtained from the Readers is made in conversational lessons. The lan-
guage lessons embrace Memory Lessons, Dictation Exercises, Stories read for
Reproduction, Exercises in Letter Writing, Word Pictures and Composition
Writing. Especial attention is given to Arithmetic and the analysis of problems.
History and Geography are taught with the aid of maps, books of reference and
the best text-books. Information Lessons, or elementary science studies in Natural
History, teach the classes to observe and to make careful note of the objects of
the animal, plant and mineral kingdoms. The method of study consists chiefly
in examination of leaves, rocks and insects. The Prang Course of Form Study
and Drawing, including a series of exercises with suitable methods is studied.
During the present year instruction in a systematic course of Voice Culture has
been given to the pupils of this department by the teacher of Vocal Music.
In Elementary Arithmetic, Grammar and Geography, the catechetical method
is largely employed, but in Higher English tiie same course is adopted which
prevails in the more advanced branches of study. The pupil is taught to study
the text-book by topics rather than by sentences or paragraphs, and encouraged
in the lecture room to give the substance of wh.at he has learned, in his own
language. In this manner, while he is adding to his store of knowledge, he is
enlarging his vocabulary, and while he is evolving principles and acquiring facts,
he is increasing his power of expression, and thus unconsciously, it may be, but
nevertheless surely, he lays the foundations of an easy and concise style of com-
position.

In English Literature, the origin of the English language and the growth of
the literature are carefully traced. In this work the most interesting facts in the
lives of the best authors and their principal productions are brought under review.
Instruction in Mental Science covers the second and third terras of the Junior
year. It embodies definitions of the mental faculties, and careful analyses of
intellectual processes, with a brief history of the science, the main purpose being
to stimulate the Student to think and investigate for himself.
Ethics, Logic and Political Economy are taught in the Senior year. Text-
books are used and daily recitations are required. Class inquiries and discussions
are encouraged, and familiar lectures are given from time to time by the teacher.
NATURAL. SCIENCE.
In the department of Natural Science, the underlying aim is to teach the
Student to think and observe for himself, and at the same time to give him such
a fund of practical knowledge as will fit him for the active duties of life. In all
the branches the text-book is used as a means to gain a knowledge of topics rather
than to be studied as an end in itself, and as far as possible the Student is led to
the study of the objects themselves. No pains are spared to cultivate habits of
clear, accurate and systematic thought and expression.
Geology is taken during the first term of the Senior year. A practical
loiowledge of the common rocks and minerals is acquired, and excursions are
made to quarries and regions which illustrate various geological formations.
During the past year the class made surveys of the Lower Helderberg limestone
quarries east of this city, the Chemung building stone quarries on the north, a
section through North Bald Eagle Mountain into Mosquito Valley, comprising
four members of the Silurian, and colored sections drawn to a scale were made of
each place visited. Each student made a written report and collected character-
istic specimens and fossils, and constructed of these specimens, dressed down and
mounted in plaster of paris, a model representing an ideal arrangement of the
seven different geological formations, fossil-bearing, admirably presented to view
by outcrops within a few miles of the Seminary.
Zoology occupies the first term of the Senior year. The work, during the
first half of the term, consists of acquiring a knowledge of the structure of the
principal classes of the several sub-kingdoms, while during the last half the com-
parative anatomy and physiology of the animal kingdom is taken up, and the
Student is led to appreciate the finely graded relationship that exists between the
classes. Orton's text-book is used and as much laboratory work is introduced as
is practicable. This year the class studied a clam, lobster, bee, fish, frog and a
cat, observing closely the physiology of the circulation and respiration in the last
subject, and dissecting an alcoholic specimen of the brain.
Physics embraces two terms of the Junior year. Mechanics, Sound and Heat
are taken in the Fall term ; and Optics, Electricity and Magnetism in the Winter.
The principles and laws are illustrated as far as practicable by apparatus. The
relation between the different branches is held strongly before the mind, and prac-
tical questions, drawn from every -day life, are constantly brought forward to teach
the Student to apply the principles learned in the text-book. The subject of
Electricity is presented by a series of experiments and lectures, on which full
notes are made by each Student.
V
\
f
N
In Botany, after a few weeks of work in Gray's School and Field Book, the
Student goes directly to the plant, analysis occupying tlie remainder of the term.
An herbarium is collected and prepared by each member of the class.
Chemistry alternates with Geology in first and second terms and occupies
the second and third terms of the Senior year. During the Spring term there is
also elective work in Analytical Chemistry. The chemical laboratory has been
fitted up this year and is fully equipped with apparatus and chemicals for ad-
vanced technical work. The room is furnished with individual tables, each sup-
plied with gas, Bunsen's burner, ring stand, water, case with full set of reagents,
and all necessary apparatus for illustrative experiment and qualitative analysis.
There is also a complete set of apparatus for volumetric and gravimetric analysis
and assaying. In the regular work Shepherd's Chemistry is used. Each Student
keeping full notes on the experiments which are performed individually, becomes
thoroughly familiar with chemicals and manipulations. In the Spring term
mineralogy is taken up in the laboratory work, and the latter part of the term is
devoted to the general principles of Organic Chemistry. In the analytical work
Fenton and Fleischer are used as reference books. Qualitative analyses of alloys
and commercial articles are made, after which quantitative analysis, both volu-
metric and gravimetric, is taken up. Estimation of ores by these processes and
by assaying, and analyses of milk, sugars, and mineral waters are made.
During the last year a dark-room has been built and furnished with a com-
plete photographic outfit and the advanced scientific students are given an oppor-
tunity to acquire a practical knowledge of the art of photography.
Lectures on subjects of interest to the department are given from time to time
illustrated by stereoscopic views projected by a new oxy-hydrogen light.
ANCIENT LANGUAGES.
In the departments of Greek and Latin, scrupulous attention is given to the
grammatical structure of these languages, their relation to English, the illustra-
tion and application of principles, accurate translation, and to the literary
significance of each author studied. It is aimed to give to the classics by these
means their proper place as an aid to expression, to a thorough knowledge of our
own language and to the pursuit of other languages, as well as to aflfbrd the usual
mental discipline. Careful attention is also given to those preparing for college
or for professional study.
MODERN LANGUAGES.
During first year in German, classes complete Otis' Elementary Grammar,
(edition of 1890), as far as the subject of Syntax, with study of Irregular Verbs,
committing to memory all conversations, i)roverbs and selections. Exercises are
prepared in German script with careful attention to the idiom of the language.
Stern's Studien 'und Plaudereien is used as the basis of conversation lessons and,
during spring, one of the works mentioned under list of text-books is read. In
second year Syntax of Otis' Grammar is completed with frequent dictation exer-
cises. Schrakamp's Erzahlungen aus der Deutschen Geschichte is studied, much
of text being memorized. Several standard novellettes are used for acquiring
facility in sight reading. The spring term is given to a study of Schiller's Works.
48
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY.
During first year in French, classes complete Keetels' Grammar through sub-
ject of Irregular Verbs, careful attention being given, in the preparation of all
exercises, to the idiom of the language. Sauveur's Causeries avec mes Eleves is
used as basis for conversational forms, many short extracts being committed to
memory. During Spring Term some work mentioned under textbooks is read
with a study of first six of La Fontaine's Fables. In second year Grammar work
is completed and Kougemont's La France is studied, together with some French
classic and historical work.
Literature exercises and historical work are given frequently in both languages
througliout the course with object, history, and geography lessons based upon the
best of charts and maps. Standard selections are frequently memorized, and a
study of synonyms is also made.
MATHEMATICS.
The Course in Mathematics is coextensive with that in the majority of our
best colleges. Although the study is considered as chiefly disciplinary, the aim
throughout the Course is to acquaint the Student with the instruments in most
familiar use by the practical scientists and mathematicians of the day, as well as
to strengthen his mental faculties and increase his logical acumen. At the com-
mencement of each subject, a familiar lecture is given on its history and practical
utility.
Algebra is begun, the Student being led slowly through the rudiments, and
made to review the fundamentals daily. After two terms spent in studying the
elements, the University Algebra is taken up at the Calculus of Kadicals, and
continued through Quadratics, Proportions, Permutations and Combinations, Pro-
gressions, Identical Equations, Decomposition of Fractions, Residual Formula,
Newton's Binomial Theorem, Method of Indeterminate Coefficients, Reversion of
Series, Logarithms, Rule of Des Cartes, Cardan's Solution of Cubic Equations,
and Sturm's Theorem. The aim of the instruction in advanced Algebra is to free
the Student from his previous dependence upon the text-book, and to cultivate
ability and taste for original mathematical work. Great stress is laid upon
mathematical generalization and the concise demonstration of principles.
The Course in Geometry covers seven books, embracing both the Plane '^and
Solid Geometry. The demonstrations are partly oral and partly written, the
written exercises being deemed a valuable aid to the cultivation of accuracy of
thought and expression. Plane Trigonometry is taken entire, and the class is
exercised in the solution of practical problems. In surveying, the Theory and
Practice are combined. The class is conveniently divided, and each division in
turn is taken by the teacher into the field for practical work. Plots of the sur-
veys made are drawn, and, together with the computations, are submitted to the
teacher for inspection.
One term is spent in Analytical Geometry, completing the Cartesian Method
of Co-ordinates, the Method of Polar Co-ordinates, and the Transformation of
Co-ordinates. To Calculus two terms are given, covering, in the Diflferential
Calculus, the Differentiation of Functions of a Single Variable, Maclaurin's and
Taylor's Theorems, together with the deduction of the Binomial Theorem and the
Theory of Logarithms, the Evaluation of Indeterminate Forms, and the Maxima

facts and principles, thus forming a foundation on which to build by future read-
ing nnd investigation. 'I'o this end the text-borsk 5^ t huruughly siudiud in con-

Special attentiuu is given to instruction in i;hetoric, on account of its great
value to the Student. The principles of good writing are studied and analyzed
with a view to their practical application.
During the last term much of the time is devoted to original productions in
the various departments of literary composition, on themes assigned by the teacher.
These productions are read before the class, where general criticisms are offered,
after which they are handed to the teacher for more careful correction.

WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY
Is an institution of high grade, with ample facilities for giving
young ladies and gendemen a superior education. It is organized
upon the plans which have been approved by long experience,
and adopted by the best schools in this country, embracing all
modern appliances in means and methods of instruction. It^vas
founded in 1848, and is regularly chartered by the Legislature of
the State of Pennsylvania, and authorized to confer degrees upon
those who complete the prescribed Courses of Study. ^
The Seminary is under the patronage of the Central Pennsyl-
vania Conference, being owned and practically managed by the
Preachers' Aid Society. As this investment was rather to pro-
mote the important work of higher Christian education than to
make money, the paramount purpose is to combine thorough
mstruction and careful moral training with the comforts of a good
home, at the lowest possible rates.
LOCATION.
Williamsport is one of the most beautiful and healthful places
in the State. It has never been subject to epidemics of any kind
Many coming to the school in poor health have returned fully
restored. The city is situated on the West Branch of the Sus-
quehanna River, has a population of thirty thousand, is widely
known for its intelligence, its enterprise, the taste displayed in the
character of its public buildings and private residences, and the
moral appliances with which it is furnished. In small towns and
villages the facilities for culture— intellectual as well as aesthetic
and moral— are generally limited, rarely reaching beyond the
institution itself, and hence student life must become monotonous
lacking the inspiration which a larger place with wider opportu-
nities affords. Thirty-six churches, an active temperance organi-
zation, and a branch of the Young Men's Christian Association
embracing many of the most earnest Christians in the community'

t
with a large library free to all, and accessible at all times, indicate
some of the religious influences brought to bear upon the young
in Williamsport.
BUILDINGS.
The buildings occupy an eminence overlooking the city, and
are surrounded by beautiful shade trees, while the grounds contaui
five acres, affording ample room for exercise and play. Tliey
are brick, heated by steam, provided with fire escapes and supplied
throughout with pure mountain water.
— The buildings are lighted throughout with electrical incandes-
cent light. The system adopted embodies the latest improvements
in generating and utilizing electricity for illuminating purposes
and insures entire safety from fire or shock, so that the wires may
be handled without danger. The value of an illuminant which,
consuming no oxygen, leaves the air perfectly pure and at the
same time furnishes abundant light, cannot be over-estimated.
The main edifice, recently rebuilt and improved, compares
favorably with the best school buildings in the country, and the
new Chapel is the most attractive public hall in the city.
Both departments are furnished with bath rooms and all modern
appliances for comfort, and in the entire arrangement of the build-
ings great care has been taken for the convenience and health of
the occupants.
The ladies' apartments are entirely separate from the others,
and there is no association of the sexes but in the presence of their
instructors. The happy influence, mutually exerted^ in their slight
association in the recitation room, at the table, and in the public
exercises in the Chapel, is to be seen in the cultivation of a cheer-
ful and animated disposition, in the formation of good habits and
manners, in ardent devotion to study, and in the attainment of
high moral character. These, with many other valuable results,
have established the fact that the best plan for a school is, accord-
ing to the evident design of Providence in the constitution of
society, on the basis of a well-regulated Christian family. The
members of the Faculty live in the buildings eat at the same tables,
and have constant oversight of all the Students.

PHYSICAL HEALTH.
The value of physical culture is recognized. A large Campus
with very fine ball grounds for the gentlemen and lawn tennis
court for the ladies furnishes stimulus and opportunity for outdoor
athletic sports.
A gymnasium, forty by sixty feet, supplied with the best modern
appliances for physical culture, is maintained for the use of the
students, under propyl regulations, for which fifty cents per term
is charged. All young men, not physically incapacitated, are
required to take systematic exercise in the gymnasium or military
drill from two to three hours per week. Those selecting the
former will furnish an appropriate gymnasium suit, including shoes.
Suitable exercise is provided for the ladies in calisthenics and
light gymnastics, under the direction of a competent teacher.
All the ladies are required to participate in these exercises, unless
excused upon a physician's certificate.
Lectures on health will also be given from time to time, by an
eminent physician.
MILITARY DEPARTMENT.
The students selecting military drill are organized into a Bat-
talion of two or more Companies, called Dickinson Seminary
Corps of Cadets.
The officers are appointed by the Faculty, all appointments
being made on examination and general proficiency.
The Cadets are exercised and instructed during the year in the
Infantry Tactics of the U. S. Army, comprising the School of the
Soldier, the School of the Company and School of the Battalion ;
and in all ceremonies, forms of parade, reviews and honors to be
paid by troops. All Cadets are required to furnish white helmet
and white gloves, which may be procured at actual cost through
the Quartermaster. These will be worn on all drills, parades, &c.
The rank of Cadet officers and non-commissioned officers is des-
ignated by insignia of West Point pattern. A new stand of arms
and new accoutrements have been purchased this year and a new
case built in the gymnasium for their safe keeping and preserva-
tion. During pleasant weather in the Fall and Spring Terms the

battalion is drilled on the Campus; at other times the gymnasium
is used as a drill hall.
It is conceded that military drill furnishes one of the most
valuable means of exercise and at the same time cultivates a ten-
dency to an erect carriage, and teaches habits of neatness,
punctuality, obedience, self-control and respect for others.
The attention of parents and guardians is called to the import-
ance and value of this Department. While its first object is to
instruct the student in the fundamental principles of Military Art,
it also gives a mental and physical training which should strongly
recommend its advantages to those responsible for the education

I@^We ask those who are seeking education for themselves,
and parents who contemplate sending their children to a boarding
school, to carefully note the fact that we furnish everything em"^
braced in a thoroughly equipped school, with all the comforts of
a good home, including a large, airy, and completely furnished
room, in a beautiful and healthful location, at the low rate of
^225.40 per year, in courses of study which prepare the Student
for business, for professional life, or for the lower or higher classes
in college ; or, if they prefer to furnish their own rooms with bed
clothes, mirrors and carpet, for ;^2 12.40 in Classical Studies, and
;^204.40 in Common English.
Persons applying for rooms will please state whether they wish
them furnished entirely or in part.
DISCOUNTS.
Special discounts are made on all bills, except tuition in Orna-
mental Branches, when two enter from the same family at the
same time, to all Ministers, all persons preparing for the Ministry
or Missionary work, and all who are preparing to teach.

ADMISSION.
Pupils of good moral character will be received at any time,
for a single term or longer period.
Must arrange bills with the Treasurer before attending recita-
tions.
Must take at least four studies, unless excused by the Faculty.
Must register name and church, and agree to comply with all
rules and reguiaiions of the School.
Each Student will be considered a member of the Institution
until due notice shall have been given of intention to leave and
permission obtained of tlie President.
BOARDING.
This department is under the general direction of the Presi-
dent, but an experienced Steward and a thoroughly competent
Matron have immediate charge. The department commends
itself by cleanliness, abundance of supply, excellence of quality,
good cooking, and adaptation to health.
DISCIPLINE.
The discipline is firm, but mild and impartial. While every
encouragement will be given to the orderly and studious, and due
allowance be made for youthful indiscretion, yet the lawless and
refractory cannot long remain among us.
APPARATUS.
The Scientific Department is furnished with very complete
outfits of Physical and Chemical Apparatus. The Museum con-
tains a large number of rare and valuable specimens, including a
fine collection of Minerals and Zoological and Physiological
specimens. Among recent additions are the followino- •
/« ^/le Museum —
Alcoholic specimens of the Human Heart, Brain, Stomach,
Kidneys and Intestines.
Bock Steger Models of Ear, Eye.Larynx, Lungs, Head and Brain.
A series of Drill Cores, a collection of different Woods in the
form of blocks, showing bark, grain and finished surface, and a
collection of Polished Granite specimens.

Rev. John A. DeMoyer and Rev. John Z. Lloyd, of the Cen-
tral Pennsylvania Conference, have made valuable contributions to
our Reference Library.
POST-GRADUATE WORK.
We are prepared to do post-graduate work in Modern Lan-
guages, Music, Art, Chemistry and Physics.
MERIT AND DEMERIT.
A daily record is kept of all the exercises of the School, from
which record the Students will be graded. A record of demerits
is also kept. Tardiness, unexcused absences from required exer-
cises, and all disorderly conduct, will subject the Student to demerit
marks. Such marks bring a private reproof before the Faculty,
a public reprimand before the whole school, and may send the
offender away. Sessional reports are sent to parents.
RELIGIOUS CHARACTER.
Dickinson Seminary is not sectarian in any sense, but it is
positively and emphatically Christian in its administration and
work. By combining practical Christian teaching with thorough
intellectual training, under the personal supervision of Christian
men and women, especially qualified by education and experience,
the School has established a reputation among literary institutions
and won the confidence of the public in a degree of which its
friends and patrons may be justly proud.

RELIGIOUS SERVICES.
Every Student is required to attend religious services in the
Chapel daily, as well as public worship morning and evening
every Sabbath, at such place as parents or guardians 7nay desig-
nate, the President assenting.
A Bible reading, conducted by the President, will be substi-
tuted for the evening service once a month or oftener, as may be
deemed proper.
N. B. — Each Student must be supplied with a Bible, to be
read, without note or sectarian comment, in the services of the
Chapel. The whole school read in concert.
A general experience meeting is held every Sabbath at half-
past eight A. M., and generally a service of song at six P. M.,
continuing one hour. Also, a prayer meeting for the ladies and
gentlemen on Thursday evenings. Attendance upon these social
services is optional with the Students.
RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS.
A Young Woman's Foreign Missionary Society has been in
successful operation for several years. This society acquires and
diffuses missionary intelligence, creates and maintains an interest
in the work of the General Society and prepares its members for
efficient service as centers of Christian influence at their homes
when school days are ended. It has largely contributed to the
education of a missionary for India.
CANDIDATES FOR THE MINISTRY.
A preacher who can, when necessary, conduct the singing in a
prayer meeting and in a revival service acquires a power for good
which cannot otherwise be attained. Indeed the usefulness of a
preacher is largely augmented by a knowledge of music and
ability to sing. Recognizing this fact, we have arranged to give
weekly lessons in singing and careful instruction in voice culture
to all young men who are preparing to preach, at the nominal
cost of one dollar per term. This provision also inckides young
women who are preparing for either home or foreign missionary
work.

STUDENTS OF LIMITED MEANS.
We have organized a system by which a Hmited number of
Students may earn a part of the cost of education.
We now give Hght employment, not appreciably interfering
with study, to seventeen young men and three young women,
paying from fifteen to thirty per cent, of bills. Applicants for
these positions are enrolled and vacancies are fiUeu m the order of
application, preference being given to those in the School. Ap-
plicants must be recommended by their pastor, or some responsi-
ble person, as worthy of help. No one will be retained who is
not earnest in his studies and faithful to all required duties.
LITERARY EXERCISES.
In addition to class work, public exercises are held in the Semi-
nary Chapel every Friday evening, at which the more advanced
Students read essays or deliver original speeches, interspersed with
vocal or instrumental music, furnished by the Music Department.
LITERARY SOCIETIES.
There are three flourishing Literary Societies connected with
the Seminary — the Belles Lettres, the Gamma Epsilon and the
Tripartite Union. The first two are in the gentlemen's, and the
last in the ladies' department. Each has a well furnished hall and
a judiciously selected library, aggregating more than two thousand
volumes. Each prepares and reads a paper in the Chapel once in
three weeks, in connection with other literary exercises, thus fur-
nishing inspiration to intellectual culture, as well as entertainment
for the Students and the public.
HOME FEATURES.
The Seminary is a boarding school of the highest grade, taking
rank among the very best, with superior appointments and appli-
ances for the health and culture of its Students. It is also a well-
ordered home. First of all, the President and his family reside in
the building, forming a part of the school and are always accessi-
ble to all its members. The wife of the President entertains the
Young Woman's Missionary Society once a month, in her apart-
ments, and occasionally receives the entire school in her parlors,
1*^^-V
while in times of sickness she visits the young ladies in their
rooms, giving such suggestions and directions as the experience
of a mother may supply. Again, the members of the Faculty
are so distributed throughout the building as to be readily acces-
sible at any time for such help as the Students may desire outside
of the recitation room. Again, recognizing the value of social
culture as a factor in preparation for a useful life, the President
and Faculty give a formal reception once each term to the whole
school in the beautiful Chapel, which for the occasion is trans-
formed into an attractive drawing room, while weekly informal
"socials," continuing from thirty minutes to an hour, after the
public Friday evening entertainments, relieve the monotony of
routine work, cultivate a cheerful spirit and meet the natural
desire for social pleasures. In these and all practicable ways an
appeal is made to the higher elements in the nature; mutual inter-
est inspires mutual respect; opportunity is afforded to study
character, and the school becomes a pleasant and safe Christian
home, as well as a place for careful mental and moral training.
INSTRUCTION.
Our methods are modern, and adapted to the need of the
Students. No pains are spared to give thorough, practical and
scholarly training in all the departments by teachers of superior
attainments and experience. Besides instruction in connection
with the text-book, lectures illustrated by experiments are given
from time to time.
Students in Music have opportunity to hear distinguished artists,
which is of great advantage in acquiring a correct taste, as also
in enlarging their knowledge. In addition to frequent Organ
Recitals by musicians of recognized ability, eminent musicians
from a distance frequently give concerts to which our Music
pupils are admitted at reduced rates.
SPECIAL LECTURES.
Special lectures in the form of familiar talks will be given each
term by the President. These lectures will cover the discussion
of social ethics, the care of health, how to eat, how to work, how
to play, how to rest, current literature and current events in rela-
i )

tion to school life, with other subjects which may be helpful to
young people who wish to make the most of opportunity.
The President will also give a course of lectures to young men
preparing for the ministry, covering such themes as may be of
value to them as preachers, as pastors and as citizens.
YOUNG LADIES.
Constant and systematic efforts are made looking toward the
general culture of the young ladies committed to our care. The
lady members of the Faculty take personal interest in all things
pertaining to their welfare and are intimately associated with them
in recreation hours.
Every Saturday short lectures are given by the Preceptress to
all young ladies on social culture, literature, art and kindred topics.
During the coming year, in addition to these lectures, the ladies
of the Senior class will meet the Preceptress monthly for purposes
of literary criticism.
TELEGRAPHY.
Among the physical apparatus are several telegraphing instru-
ments, one of which, the gift of Benjamin G. Welch, Superin-
tendent of the Williamsport and North Branch Railroad, is a very
fine model, showing the various parts of different instruments.
During the year a number of instruments have been placed in
students' and teachers' rooms, affording excellent opportunity for
study and practice to those who desire to fit themselves for prac-
tical work in this growing branch of industry.
TEACHERS.
A Normal Class may be organized during the Fall and Spring
Terms for those who desire to teach. The Course will compre-
hend special instruction by Lectures on the Theory and Methods
of Teaching by the President. No extra charge will be made,
SCHOLARSHIPS.
Mr. DeWitt Bodine, of Hughesville, Pa., an alumnus of the
Seminary, has the honor of founding the first full scholarship in
V * .♦
I
X > 1 ^
J
V ^
I
this Institution. It is to be filled from the public schools of
Hughesville by competitive examinations and is designated
The DeWitt Bodine Scholarship.
It pays all expenses of board, tuition, etc., in any regular course
of study.
Who will imitate Mr. Bodine's example? Are there not
generous men and women among our alumni and friends ready to
invest a portion of their wealth where it will be secure and work
for God for ever ? A comparatively small sum will do a large work.
The interest on a thousand dollars, in many instances, will supple-
ment the meager resources of a worthy young man or woman
whom God has given large ability but from whom fortune has
withheld the means to develop it. This is especially true of those
who are called into the ministry or into missionary work. Any
sum will help, and three thousand dollars will found a ministry or
missionary scholarship in this Institution and maintain it per-
petually.
OUTFIT.
The gentlemen should be provided with an umbrella, and a
pair of slippers to be worn in the room. The ladies must be
supplied with thick walking shoes, an umbrella. India-rubber
overshoes, water-proof cloak and a suit for exercise in calisthenics
and light gymnastics. Their attire for general use should be neat
and simple, but not elegant or expensive. All wearing apparel
must be plainly marked with full name of the owner. We suggest
that in addition to towels, napkins and napkin ring, each pupil
bring a knife, fork and spoon, y^r use in case of sickness,
A WORD TO PARENTS.
I- B@°* Try to have your children here on the first day of the
term, b?it not before, as we shall not be ready to receive them.
The classes are formed on the second day, and it will be better
for all concerned that the Student start regularly with his class.
2. If possible, do not call them away during the session.
Absence, if only for a few days, disarranges the class, and is
generally the beginning of irregularity on the part of the scholar.
64
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY.
3. Do not allow your children to leave the School before the
examinations, unless it cannot be avoided. Serious inconvenience
to all concerned often arises from a neglect of this caution.
4. Supply them very sparingly with spending money. Parents
cannot be too cautious on this point.
5. Select for your child one of the instructors as a patron, to
distribute his funds. In this way a more judicious use of your
money will be made, and your child will be kept from many
temptations.
I@^ Students not boarding in the Institution must observe the
- following rules :
1. Attend daily prayers, unless excused.
2. Must spend the intervals between recitations in the Study
Hall.
3. Must account for. all absence by written excuse without
delay, time and number of recitations being specified.
4. Must not visit the rooms of boarders without permission.
MEANS OF ACCESS.
Williamsport is eight and a half hours from New York, six
hours from Philadelphia, nine hours from Pittsburg, six hours
from Baltimore, three hours fi'om Harrisburg, and three hours
from Elmira, and is reached directly by the Pennsylvania, the
Philadelphia and Reading, the Northern Central and the Phila-
delphia and Erie railroads, which pass through the city, and as
these have connections directly with all the great railroads, is
readily accessible from all quarters.
GRADUATES AND FORMER STUDENTS.
It may safely be estimated that from eight to ten thousand per-
sons have received Academic instruction, covering from one to
three years, in Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, while five hun-
dred and sixty-one have completed the prescribed curriculum,
graduating with the degrees the Institution confers. We desire
to bring all these into active sympathy and co-operation with their
Alma Mater, and hence we ask all persons to whom this notice
may come, who have been Students here, to send us their address,
k

with any information concerning their personal history that may
be of general interest, as we wish to compile a complete cata-
logue of all the Students now living.
There is a general meeting of the Alumni every year, the day
before Commencement. We extend a most cordial invitation to
all old Students to attend the meeting this year, which will be
held June 15, in the afternoon and evening. If you cannot come,
let us hear fl-nm you ])\' letter.
And now, may I not ask you to aid in enlarging the sphere and
increasing the power of our Alma Mater? You can do much in
many ways, but you can at least direct those looking for a good
Boarding School to ours, or send me their address on a postal
card. Carry the Seminary in your heart. She is doing a worthy
work, and earnestly asks her sons and daughters to help her.

Opinions of Patrons and Friends.
That the pubHc may form an inteUigent opinion of the estima-
tion in which the Institution is held by those who have had
opportunity to judge of its management and practical work, we
publish some testimonials recently received from our friends and
patrons :
HuGHESViLLE, Pa., April 26, 1892.
Rev. E. J. Gray^ D. i)., President Dickinson Seminary :
Dear Sir — Your invitation to the patrons of Dickinson to express their
opinions covers so much detail that it will be difficult to condense quite as much
as is necessary. My opinions are formed from rather frequent visits to Dickinson
Seminary, from the experience of my daughter as one of your students and an
acquaintance with some of your Faculty, gained by my visits, togetlier with the
opportunity of hearing the unrestrained expressions of students, and my conclu-
sions are as follows: The Seminary has a cheerful, attractive atmosphere about
it, with an entire absence of any appearance of physical restraint. U is so
pleasantly warmed by your steam heating system in cool weather that I have
noticed, always, that it was very thoroughly ventilated and full of fresh, pure air.
Havino^ taken meals with the students quite a number of times, 1 have always
enjoyed the table service and bill of fare; the home-like intercourse at the table
I consider quite a desirable feature. I have been fully satisfied with the system
of teaching, which aims to have the students learn to understand what they are
taught rather than to commit it to memory merely, so as to get through a recita-
tion. The system of government that appeals to the honor and conscience of the
pupils is certainly preparing^them for the decision of actual questions of life,
better than any system of physical restraint could possibly do, and at the same
time secures a very much higher tone in the school ; above all, the grand work
that is done in leading the students '^up through nature to nature's God," so as to
secure their conversion is, to my mind, your crowning success.
I do not know of any institution making a better record for itself than
Dickinson Seminary, and I hope it may secure such financial aid from time to
time as shall enable it to very much increase its accommodations.
Very truly yours,
Bknj. (t. Welch,
General Manager of Williamsport & North Branch K. R. Co.
My eldest daughter graduated from Williamsport Dickinson Seminary in 1886.
From my knowledge of the school, 1 do not hesitate to recommend it as one of
the best institutions in our church. As a home for young ladies, both for its
comforts and healthful ness, I know of none superior. The discipline is all any
one could ask, and the facilities for mental and moral culture are of high order,
suited to those seeking higher education. The President, Rev. E. J. Gray, D. D.,
I have known intimately for many years, and he has qualities which eminently
fit him for the responsible position which he holds.
Richard Norris,
Pastor of Harford Avenue M. E. Church, Baltimore Conference, Baltimore, Md.
My judgment of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, based on knowledge de-
rived from several years' residence in close proximity to the institution, and also
from two sons who have been students in the Fchool, is, that for opportunity for
mental and moral culture, for helpfulness, for home comforts and especially for
discipline, the Seminary is worthy my most earnest commendation.

Bloomsburg, Pa., May 7, 1889.
I have watched for years, with pleasure, the steady growth and prosperity of
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary under your excellent management. 1 have
been impressed with its kind, but firm discipline, the great opportunity for in-
tellectual and moral improvement, and the delightful home feeling and influence
that seem to unite the Faculty and students and pervade the entire institution. 1
regard it as one of the best schools of the kind in the country, and in every way
worthy of the confidence and patronage of the Christian public. This knowledge
I obtained from personal observation as a resident pastor among the Faculty and
students.
John Donahue,
P. E. Danville District, Central Pa. Conference.
Harrisburg, Pa., May 8, 1889.
Three of my children have attended Dickinson Seminary for a period aggre-
gating between six and seven years. As regards everything that goes to make up
a first-class school of the kind, 1 doubt if it is surpassed by any school in the
country, and there are very few its equal. 1 can heartily recommend it to parents
and others having children to educate.
B. F. Stevens.
Canton, Pa., May 6, 1889.
I take great pleasure in bearing testimony to the high moral tone and good
discipline of Dickinson Seminary.
i am convinced that the degree of advancement is fully equal to the standard
in other schools of equal grade.
My information is obtained from general observation, and from having a
daughter in attendance for over a year.
George A. Guernsey, Bank Cashier.
Blossburg, Pa., May 8, 1889.
My daughter has been a student in Williamsport Dickinson Seminary for the
past two years, and noting her progress, as well as from personal observation, I
am satisfied that the Seminary is to be highly commended for its moral and home-
like atmosphere, and its high standards of intellectual culture.
B. F. Tracy,
Pastor M. E. C, Central N. Y. Conference.
I have been a student of Dickinson Seminary. For three years I made that
my home, and found it to embrace all the advantages pertaining to my social,
intellectual and moral improvement.
L. M. Brady,
Class ^84, Pastor M. E. Church, Coalport, Pa.
1 am an alumnus of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary. Regard it as a very
careful institution; careful to provide facilities for mental and moral improve-
ment; careful in looking after the character of its young men and women.
J. H. Mortimer,
Pastor M. E. Church, Conyngham, Pa.
I can heartily recommend Dickinson Seminary to any young person desiring
a higher education.
My knowledge of the character of the work done at your school is personal,
having spent four school years there as a student. The method of instruction
adopted by the President is, in my judgment, the best.
The best feature is, this institution is an all around educator, physical, mental
and moral, and all receive due attention.

I finished my preparation for college at Williamsport Dickinson Seminary. 1
learned more at the Seminary in one year than I had at other schools in two. I
consider it to be one of the very best institutions of learning of its grade in the
State. Its moral and religious influences are of the best.
T. M. B. Hicks,
Lawyer, Williamsport, Pa.
It affords me great pleasure to bear testimony to the high character and
thorougli work of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary. Having been a student in
the institution, I am enabled to speak from personal knowledge. The school em-
bodies all the essential features of a Christian home. Its location and sanitary
equipments insure its healthfulness, while its facilities for mental and moral
culture are of such character as to secure to students the largest and best results.
Parents need not hesitate to commit their children to its wholesome and stimu-
lating discipline.
G. Murray Klepfer,
Pastor M. E. Church, Danville, Pa.
Having had two daugiiters graduated at the Williamsport Dickinson Seminary,
I think I can speak understandingly in regard to the merits of the school. I can,
therefore, conscientiously recommend it to those who may be vseeking an education,
or those who may have children to educate, as an institution where every effort is
made, and generally successful, to develop the physical, mental and moral nature
of its pupils.
A. B. HoovEN,
Pastor M. E. Church, Stewartstown, Pa.
Having had two sons educated at this school, I would earnestly recommend
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary to parents having children to educate, or to
any others desirous of a thorough education, because of its facilities for mental
and moral culture, and for its home comforts and healthfulness.
A. N. Harvey,
Merchant, Harvey ville, Pa.
My son attended the Dickinson Seminary. I consider the location healthftd,
accommodations good, discipline kindly and conscientious, and I know of no school
that stands higher for mental and moral culture.
D. E. Thomas,
Farmer, Darlington, Hereford County, Md.
It affords me pleasure to bear testimony to the home comforts, discipline,
healthfulness and facilities for mental and moral culture afforded by VVilliamsport
Dickinson Seminary. My knowledge is positive, my daughter having been a
student in the school for three years, and my wife having been to see the institu-
tion herself. I can heartily recommend the school to others.
Wilson J. Sterling,
Boiler Works, Reading, Pa.
A student experience of more than three years at Dickinson Seminary compels
me to think highly of her, my Alma Mater. An Alumnus of the Seminary, after-
wards graduated from one of our oldest and best colleges, said to the writer that
he would not exchange the mental discipline gained through class-room drill at
the Seminary for all he afterwards got at college. My wife (Alumna) says: "The
religious influence of the Seminary were excellent." My own appreciation of
the all around advantages of the Seminary is manifest in the fact that when look-
ing out for a school for an only and much loved sister, I chose Dickinson Seminary.
May your excellent school ever be crowded with excellent young people.

I most heartily endorse the Seminary all the way through. Three vears' drill
there has helped me to do work I could not have done without it.
G. W. Stevens,
Class '81, Pastor M. E. Church, Harrisburg, Pa.
I very cordially commend Williamsport Dickinson Seminary as an institution
of learning. My knowledge of the Seminary is personal, being an Alumnus of
the institution.
I believe its facilities for mental and moral culture to be unsurpassed by anv
school of like grade in this coimtry.
Benj. II. Mosser,
Class 77, M. E. Church, Milton, Pa.
I was a student in Dickinson Seminary from 1877 to 1880. The thorough
instruction and culture I received have been the great helps in my work, and not
less important, the school was a good home. The religious influence was of the
highest character. In the revival of 1879 thirty students were converted, bein^
all the unconverted boarding students but four. Since entering upon my life work
I have had abundant opportunity for observing the work of the school. The
religious and home influences continue, and the efficiency of the school in all
departments is rapidly increasing. J. D. W. Deavur,
Pastor M. E. Church, Weatherly, Pa.
During a three years' residence in the beautiful city of Williamsport, Pa., as
pastor of Grace Methodist Episcopal Church, and as such a member of the Board
of Managers of the Preachers' Aid Society, and also of the Conference Visiting
Committee, it was my privilege often to visit Williamsport Dickinson Seminarv.
As my knowledge of the institution increased relative to its location, healthfnl-
ness, equipment, discipline, morals, and the excellence and thoroughness of the
w^ork done in it, my regard and admiration increased.
I have no hesitancy in pronouncing it one of the very best institutions in the
State, and cordially commend it to all seeking for their young people the ad-
vantages of a first-class Seminary, as admirably adapted to secure the fullest
realization of their hopes. k. h. Gilbert,
Pastor M. E. Church, Tyrone, Pa.
The one feature which impressed me most while taking the course at Dickinson
Seminary, and of which I have thought most frequently since, is the good practical
sense, shown in many ways, that pervades the instruction, discipline and social
intercourse. I am more and more grateful for what that did for me.
J. K. DUNKERLY,
Class '78, Pastor M. E. Church, Hopewell, Pa.
I have been a patron of Dickinson Seminary for the past three years, and from
the knowledge I have obtained by visits to the Seminary and from mv daughter
I cheerfully recommend this Seminary to those seeking a school. Tlie buildings
are ample and contain all the modern improvements for the comfort of pupils— in
reality it is a home— accessible by rail from all points. The curriculum of studies
is of a high order, and under the excellent discipline— a parental one— of Dr.
Gray and an efl^icient corps of professors and teachers, I am confident patrons will
never regret having patronized this school.

Joseph Nixon, Sr., Altoona, Pa.
Having spent three years at Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, under the
present administration, J can heartily recommend the institution to any one seek-
ing a higher education. Superior intellectual advantages are offered. The
personal interest manifested in the students is a commendable feature. The dis-
cipline IS hrm, yet mild and parental; in short, tlie Seminary is a Christian home
where every interest of the student is delightfully guarded. My experience has
been that the moral atmosphere pervading the school is more conducive to a
healthy religious growth than the influence characterizing the majority of our
institutions of learning. - j ^
O. G. Heck,
Class '84, Pastor M. E. Church, Watsontown, Pa.
I can very readily commend the Dickinson Seminary, Williamsport, Pa., to
persons wishing to educate their children. Three of our children (son and two
daughters )^ have attended this institution, and during their attendance I was a
Jrequent visitor and was favorably impressed with the management, its healthful
location, discipline and low cost of tuition, &c., in comparison with other schools
ot same grade.
John G. McGraw,
Superintendent and Keal Estate Agent, Claysburg, Pa.
Having spent nearly two years in Dickinson Seminary, under the present
management, I have no hesitancy in recommending it as a first-cla^ school. The
location IS admirable, the influence over the students is good, the facilities for
mental and moral culture are excellent. If I had children to go to any school
they would certainly go to the Seminary at Williamsport.
Alex. Lamberson,
Pastor M. E. Church, Dillsburg, Pa.
I was a student at the Seminary four years— Class '82— and for home-like sur-
roundings, facilities for mental and moral training, healthfulness and kind parental
discipline, it is not surpassed by any school of its class, and equaled by few I
recommend the Seminary to any and all parents seeking a school where children
can; get the most good and the least harm.
Yours truly,
