GENERAL INFORMATION.
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary
is an institution of high grade, with ample facilities for giving
young ladies and gentlemen a superior education. It is organ-
ized upon the plans which have been approved by long experi-
ence, and adopted by the best schools in this country, embrac-
ing all modern appliances in means and methods of instruc-
tion. It was founded 1848, and is regularly chartered by the
Legislature of the State of Pennsylvania, and authorized to con-
fer degrees upon those who complete the prescribed Courses of
Study.
The Seminary is under the patronage of the Central Penn-
sylvania Conference, being owned and practically managed by
the Preachers' Aid Society. As this investment was rather to
promote the important work of higher Christian education than
to make money, the paramount purpose is to combine thorough
instruction and careful moral training with the comforts of a
good home, at the lowest possible rates.
I/Ocation.
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.
In the last Census Report it is rated as the fourth healthiest
city in the United States. Dr. Benjamin Lee, Secretary of the
State Board of Health, in his last official report, says : "Wil-
liamsport continues to be the banner city as regards sanitation
and death rate in Pennsylvania."
The city is situated on the West Branch of the
Susquehanna River, has a population of more than thirty thous-
and, is widely known for its intelligence, its enterprise, the taste
displayed in the character of its public buildings and private resi-
dences, and the moral appliances with which it is furnished.
In small towns and villages the facilities for culture — intellect-

ual as well as aesthetic and moral — are generally limited, rare-
ly reaching beyond the institution itself, and hence student
life must become monotonous, lacking the inspiration which a
larger place with wider opportunities affords. Forty churches,
an active temperance organization, and branches of the Young
Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations, embracing
many of the most earnest Christians in the community, with a
large library, free to all, and accessible at all times, indicate
some of the social and religious advantages accessible to the
young people in Williamsport.
Buildings.
The buildings occupy an eminence overlooking the city, and
are surrounded by beautiful shade trees, while the grounds
contain six acres, affording ample room for exercise and play.
The buildings are brick, heated by steam, provided with fire
escapes, and supplied throughout with pure mountain water.
They are lighted with electric incandescent light. The system
adopted embodies the latest improvements in generating and
utilizing electricity for illuminating purposes, and insures en-
tire 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 overestimated.
The main edifice, rebuilt and improved, compares favorably
with the best school buildings in the country, and the Chapel is
among the most attractive public halls in the city.
Both departments are furnished with ample bathing facil-
ities including tub and shower baths and all modern appliances
for comfort, and in the entire arrangement of the buildings
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 association in the recitation room, at the table, and in the
public exercises in the Chapel, is to be seen in the cultivation of
IO FIFTY-FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
a cheerful 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, according to the evident design of Providence in the
constitution of society, on the basis of a well-regulated Chris-
tian family.
The members of the faculty live in the building, eat at the
same tables, and have constant oversight of all the students.
Bradley Hall.
The Music and Art building, named for Hon. Thomas
Bradley, of Philadelphia, is an imposing structure, eighty-five
feet long, fifty feet deep and four stories high. In architectural
design and symbolic ornamentation it represents a very high
type of utility and beauty.
This commodious building is a part of a long-cherished pur-
pose to provide a modern Music and Art conservatory which, in
equipment of space and appliances, as well as in method and
character of work, shall meet the increasing demands for wider
opportunity and broader culture in what has come to be es-
teemed an important factor in higher education of young peo-
ple. We offer advantages for the study of music, vocal and
instrumental, which compare favorably with the best music
schools in this country, with the atmosphere of a high-toned lit-
erary institution and the safeguard of a refined Christian home.
Our directors and assistant teachers have studied abroad, as
well as in the best schools in this country, and are thoroughly
conversant with the latest and best methods of instruction.
While chiefly devoted to the study of Music and Art, provis-
ion is made in Bradley Hall for a swimming pool, a large and
well furnished gymnasium and bowling alley for young ladies,
with lockers, baths and all modern appliances for health and
comfort added, as also a capacious Society Hall, a reading room
and library. It is joined by an enclosed bridge with the main
building of the Seminary, affording them easy and sheltered
communication at all times.
WILUAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. II
The New Bowling Alley.
Mrs. Helen Ferguson Tustin, an alumnae of the institution,
has erected and furnished for the use of the young ladies, a very
fine double bowling alley. This generous recognition of the
value of exhilarating exercise is highly appreciated, as it large-
ly adds both to health and enjoyment.
Health.
The value of physical culture is recognized. A large Cam-
pus, with running track, ball and lawn tennis grounds for the
gentlemen and lawn tennis courts for the ladies, furnishes stim-
ulus and opportunity for outdoor athletic sports.
The new Athletic Field toward which we have steadily
looked and wrought, is completed and meets the highest de-
mand. The ground graded and set apart for athletic uses is
478 feet long and 300 feet wide. It will certainly compare fa-
vorably with the best athletic fields among Seminaries and Col-
leges, and being a part of the campus, will be wholly under the
control of the Institution.
As an adjunct to our fine athletic equipment, as well as a min-
ister to health, a suitable room has been cemented on floor and
side walls, and furnished with five shower and four basin baths
for the young men.
An efficient Athletic Association is organized among the stu-
dents, under the direction of a Professor. A public entertain-
ment is given in behalf of the Association once a year. A
Gymnasium, forty by sixty feet, supplied with the best modern
appliances for physical culture, is maintained for the use of the
gentlemen, under proper regulations. All young men. not
physically incapacitated, may be required to take systematic ex-
ercise in the Gymnasium from two to three hours per week dur-
ing Winter term. They will provide themselves with an ap-
propriate gymnasium suit, including shoes.
Lectures on health will also be given from time to time, by
an eminent physician.
12 FIFTY-FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
Rooms and Furniture.
The rooms are larger than in most boarding schools, being
sixteen by thirteen feet and nineteen and a-half by nine and
a-half feet.
Experience shows that, except in rare instances, a student is
more contented and does better work with a room mate than
when alone, hence rooms are arranged for two occupants.
Changes are made when the assignment proves unsatisfactory.
A student rooming alone will be charged $12 extra a term,
which must be paid when the room is taken.
Rooms for young men are furnished with single enameled
iron and brass bedsteads, felt mattress and springs, wardrobe,
washstand, table, chairs, bookcase, carpet, bedding, towels,
mirror and crockery ; but those who wish may provide carpet,
bed clothing, mirror and towels, for which they will be allowed
a discount of ten dollars a year. Dressing bureaus may be
rented for one dollar a year for each student.
All rooms for young ladies are entirely furnished ; but stu-
dents may provide towels and bed clothing (for single beds) for
which they will be allowed a discount of five dollars a year.
Expenses.
Charges per school year for boarding, laundry, (12 plain
pieces per week), heat, light, tuition in regular branches and
room entirely furnished, are $253.50, distributed as follows :
Fall Term $97.50

WILUAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 13
school, to carefully note the fact that we furnish everything- em-
braced in a thoroughly equipped boarding school, with all the
comforts of a good home, including a large, airy and complete-
ly furnished room, in a beautiful and healthful location, in
courses of study which prepare the student for business, for
professional life, or for the lower or higher classes in college at
the low rate of $253.50 a year.
Persons applying for rooms will please state whether they
wish them furnished entirely or in part. Rooms will not be
furnished for less than a term.
Students in Chemistry are charged for
General Chemistry — per term $3.00
Qualitative Analysis — per term 4.00
Discounts.
Special discounts are made on all bills, except tuition in Or-
namental Branches, when two enter from the same family at the
same time ; to all Ministers ; all persons preparing for the Min-
istry or Missionary work, and all who are preparing to teach.
These discounts are credited at the close of each term, and
may be withdrawn at any time if the scholarship and deport-
ment of the beneficiary are not satisfactory. The bills of those
receiving discounts must be paid or secured each term.
Payments.
Term bills are payable in advance, one-half at opening and
the balance at the middle of the term.
Twenty-five per cent, will be added to the ordinary rate per
week for board, laundry, heat, light and room, when students
leave before the end of the term. No reduction or discount m
boarding or tuition for less than half a term, nor furnished
room for less than a term. Nor will there be any reduction for
absence during a term except in case of protracted illness.
Extra washing, ordinary pieces, 50 cents per dozen ; ladies'
plain gowns, 20 cents each.
Meals in dining room after regular table, jo cents extra.
Meals carried to rooms, in case of sickness, 10 cents each, or 25
cents per day.
When students are called away by sickness or providential
14 FIFTY-FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
necessity, moneys advanced will be returned, subject to condi-
tions stated above. Students dismissed or leaving without the
approval of the President may be charged for the full term.
No reduction for board or tuition for absence of two weeks or
less at the beginning, or the last four weeks before the close of
the term.
Five dollars must be deposited by gentlemen and two dollars
by ladies with the Treasurer on entering, to cover damages that
the students may do to the room or other property. This will
be returned when the student leaves, but not before, in case no
injur}' has been done.
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 reci-
tations.
Must take at least four studies, unless excused by the Fac-
ulty.
Must register and agree to comply with all rules and regula-
tions 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 from the President.
Boarding.
This department is under the general direction of the Presi-
dent, but an experienced and thoroughly competent Matron has
immediate charge. The department commends itself by clean-
liness, 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.
WILUAMSPORT DICKIKSON SEMINARY. 15
Merit and Demerit.
A daily record is kept of all the exercises of the school, from
which record the student will be graded. A record of demerits
is also kept. Tardiness, unexcused absences from required ex-
ercises, 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.
Government.
Our system of government seeks to encourage self-control
rather than control by statute law and rule. It deals with each
one as an individual, as well as a part of the school, making each
one largely the arbiter of his own immunities and limitations.
This principle will be emphasized in the coming year.
Manliness and womanliness manifested in a uniform recogni-
tion of relations to school and school life ; appreciation of what
opportunity means as a value and factor in the acquisition of
learning and culture, and courteous, straightforward, truthful
dealing with teachers and fellow students in matters pertaining
to mutual associations in the life and work of the school, will
earn and obtain such privileges as properly consist with the
purpose for which school life is desired and maintained.
But indolence, evasion of duties implied in the relations of
student and school, unmanly or unwomanly attitude toward the
life assumed in entering the school, and especially equivocation
or prevarication in statement, bearing or living, will be treat-
ed as weakness or positive vice, imposing such correctives and
limitations as each individual case may demand.
Honors.
No student whose deportment is unsatisfactory will be al-
lowed to contest for class honors.
Religious Character.
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary is not sectarian in any
sense, but it is positively and emphatically Christian in its ad-
ministration and work. By combining practical Christian
16 FIFTY-FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
teaching with thorough intellectual training, under the person-
al supervision of Christian men and women, especially qualified
by education and experience, the school has established a repu-
tation among literary institutions and has won the confidence
of the public in a degree of which its friends and patrons may
be justly proud.
Religious Services.
Every boarding student is required to attend religious ser-
vices in the Chapel daily, as well as public worship morning
and evening every Sabbath, at such place as parents or guar-
dians may designate, the President assenting, unless excused.
A Bible reading or special service conducted by the Presi-
dent, will be substituted for the evening services as often 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.
To promote the spirit of worship, we advise each student to
procure the Hymnal of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which
is used in the Chapel services.
A general experience meeting is held every Sabbath at half-
past eight A. M., and generally a brief service of song at six
P. M. Also a prayer and praise meeting on Wednesday evenings.
Attendance upon these services is optional with the students.
Religious Organizations.
A Young Woman's Foreign Missionary Society has been in
successful operation for years. This society acquires and dif-
fuses missionary intelligence, creates and maintains an inter-
est in the work of the General Society, and prepares its mem-
bers for efficient service as centres of Christian influence at their
homes when school days are ended. It has largely contributed
to the education of a missionary for India.
The Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associa-
tions maintain brief devotional meetings daily, and on the Sab-
bath each holds a special service of such character as circum-
stances may seem to demand.
WILLAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 17
Home Features.
The Seminary is a boarding school of the highest grade,
taking rank among the very best, with superior appointments
and appliances 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 accessible to all its members. The wife of the
President entertains the Young Woman's Missionary Society
once a month in her apartments, and occasionally receives the
entire school in her parlors, while in times of sickness she visits
the students in their rooms, giving such suggestions and direc-
tions as the experience of a mother may supply. Again, the
members of the Faculty are so distributed throughout the
building as to be readily accessible 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 the Faculty give a formal
reception once each term to the whole school in the Chapel,
which for the occasion is transformed into an attractive draw-
ing room, while weekly informal "socials," continuing from
thirty minutes to an hour, after the public Friday evening en-
tertainments, 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 high-
er elements in the nature ; mutual interest inspires mutual re-
spect ; 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.
Special Lectures.
Special lectures in the form of familiar talks will be given
each term by the President. These lectures will cover the dis-
cussion 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 relation to school life, with other subjects which may
be helpful to young people who wish to make the most of op-
portunity.
FIFTY-FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
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. Attend-
ance at these lectures is required of all candidates for the min-
istry, i j
Lectures on current events, phases of school life and work,
distinguished characters, science, literature, art, travel and kin-
dred subjects, are given by members of the Faculty each Wed-
nesday morning after Chapel services.
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 to all young ladies
on social culture, literature, art and kindred topics.
Young ladies are chaperoned to and from church in the
evenings, to entertainments, to games, to trains and on drives.
They may only receive calls from gentlemen on written request
from parents or guardians addressed to the President.
Instruction.
Our methods are modern, and adapted to the need of the stu-
dents. No pains are spared to give thorough, practical and
scholarly training in all departments by teachers of superior at-
tainments 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 addi-
tion to frequent Recitals by musicians of recognized
ability, eminent musicians from a distance frequently give con-
certs, to which our Music pupils are admitted at reduced rates.
WILUAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 19
Post-Graduate Work.
We are prepared to do post-graduate work in Modern Lan-
guages, Music, Art, Chemistry and Physics.
I/iterary Exercises.
In addition to class work, public exercises are held in the
Seminary Chapel every Friday evening, at which the Juniors
and Seniors in literary courses read essays or deliver original
speeches, interspersed with vocal or instrumental music, fur-
nished by the Music Department.
I/iterary 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.
Reference library.
By the generosity of Mr. Alexander E. Patton, a Director of
the Seminary, the foundations of a Reference Library have been
laid. Already many volumes, selected with intelligent discrim-
ination, comprising the latest and best publications in the va-
rious departments of History, Language, Literature, Science,
Music and Art, are accessible to all students.
It is intended to make this library increasingly valuable, not
so much by the number as by the quality of the books it contains.
We appeal earnestly to all friends of the Seminary, and
especially to former students, to send contributions in money or
in books of standard value. No others are desired.
Mrs. A. P. Dysart, the daughter of Rev. James Curns, do-
nated one hundred and seventy volumes from her father's li-
brary for such use as the President of the Seminary deemed
best. These books are placed in the Reference Library and are
designated the ''Rev. James Curns' Alcove." They are of
special interest and value to young men preparing for the min-
istry.

If those preparing to teach desire it, a Normal Class will be
organized during the Fall and Spring terms. The Course will
comprehend special instruction by lectures on the Theory and
Methods of Teaching by the President. No extra charge will
be made.
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 useful-
ness of a preacher is largely augmented by a knowledge of
music and ability to sing. Recognizing this fact, we have ar-
ranged 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
includes young women who are perparing for either home or
foreign missionary work.
Students of limited Means.
We have organized a system by which a limited number of
students may earn a part of the cost of education.
We now give light employment, not appreciably interfering
with study, to twenty-five young men and three young women,
paying from ten to twenty-five per cent, of the bills. Appli-
cants for these positions are enrolled and vacancies are filled in
the order of application, preference being given to those in the
school. Applicants must be recommended by their pastor, or
some responsible person, as worthy of help. No one will be re-
tained who is not earnest in his studies and faithful to all re-
quired duties.
Loans.
Various Boards of Education accumulate beneficiary funds
which are loaned to needy and worthy students upon recom-
mendation of the home church and the approval of the Faculty.
These loans are for a specified amount, without interest while
the student is at work in this institution and for two years after-
wards.

Advice to Parents.
i. Try to have your children here on the first day of the term,
but 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.
When called home during the term, the time of going and re-
turning must be specified in the request. Absence, if only for
a few days, disarranges the class, and is generally the beginning
of irregularity on the part of the student.
3. Do not allow your children to leave the school before the
examinations, unless it cannot be avoided. Serious inconven-
ience 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.
Outfit.
The gentlemen should be provided with an umbrella, and also
a pair of slippers to be worn in the room. The ladies must be
supplied with thick walking shoes, and umbrella, India rubber
overshoes, water-proof cloak and a suit for exercise in the Gym-
nasium. 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, for use in case of sickness.
Day Pupils.
A large, well-lighted, well-ventilated study room, properly
furnished with desks, is provided for our day pupils.
Recitations will not be heard in this room, but a thoroughly
competent person will have charge during the school hours of
22 FIFTY- FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
the day and direct students in their work, giving especial atten-
tion to backward pupils and those who have not learned how to
study.
Day pupils in the Primary branches will be charged $10.50
for Fall term and $8.00 for Winter and Spring terms each ; in
higher branches $21.00 for Fall Term and $17.00 for Winter
and Spring Terms each.
All day students pursuing regular studies will be required to
observe the following rules :
1. Attend Chapel exercises, unless excused by the President.
2. Spend the intervals between recitations in the study room.
3. Present written excuse from parent or guardian for all
absences.
4. Must not visit the rooms of boarders without permission.
5. Must deposit $1.00 with the Treasurer of the Seminary
when they enter to cover damage to Study Hall or other prop-
erty. This will be returned when the student leaves, but not
before, providing no injury has been done.
Examinations.
Students who make a term record of eighty per centum and
upward in all subjects will not be required to take examinations
in those subjects in which they have made a term record of
ninety per centum and upward ; but if the term standing in any
subject falls below eighty per centum examinations will be re-
quired in all subjects pursued during the term.
Apparatus.
The scientific department is furnished with very complete
outfits of Physical and Chemical Apparatus. The new Chem-
ical Laboratory meets a long-felt want in this department. A
large room, with the best light, has been fitted with the most
approved modern appliances for Qualitative Analysis. Thirty-
two new desks, each furnished with gas, sink and water, afford
every advantage for individual work by the student.

Endowed Scholarships.
Many young men and women, with large capacity for use-
fulness, and ambitious to acquire an education, are limited in
means. Comparatively little help, with such aid as the Semi-
nary affords to worthy students, would suffice to supplement
their resources. The interest on one thousand dollars, and in
many instances the interest on half that sum, would inspire hope
and stimulate the spirit of sacrifice in families and among
24 FIFTY^FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
friends that would secure to many young men and women of
excellent promise, the mental training and moral culture of the
Seminary.
This institution will be glad to accept endowed scholarships
of any amount which may be constituted in the following man-
ner:
i. The founder of each scholarship shall have the privilege
of naming it and of determining the conditions on which it shall
be awarded.
2. These scholarships may be maintained from year to year
by the annual payment of the interest on the principal sum until
the principal sum is paid.
3. The income of a scholarship when not awarded shall be
at the disposal of the President and Board of Directors.
4. Applicants for a scholarship must present satisfactory tes-
timonials of good moral character, and, to retain it, if awarded,
must do satisfactory work.
Mr. DeWitt Bodine, of Hughesville, Pa., an alumnus of the
Seminary, has the honor of founding the first full scholarship in
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 forever? Any sum will help, and four thousand
dollars will found a ministry or missionary scholarship in this
Institution and maintain it perpetually.
The Alexander E. Patton Scholarship.
Mr. Alexander E. Patton, of Curwensville, Pa., has founded
a perpetual scholarship of one thousand dollars, the conditions
of which are, that the interest on this sum shall be paid annually

in equal amounts to the two applicants who attain a required
rank highest in scholarship and deportment in the Junior class.
The Elizabeth S. Jackson Scholarship.
Mrs. Elizabeth S. Jackson, of Berwick, Pa., has founded a
perpetual scholarship of five hundred dollars, the conditions of
which are, that the interest on this sum shall be paid annually
to the applicant who attains a required rank highest in scholar-
ship and deportment in the Sophomore class.
The William L. Woodcock Scholarship.
Mr. Wiliam L. Woodcock, of Altoona, Pa., has founded a
perpetual scholarship of five hundred dollars, the conditions of
which are, that the interest of this sum shall be paid annually to
the applicant who attains a required rank second in scholarship
and deportment in the Sophomore class.
The Edward J. Gray Scholarship.
The President of the Seminary has founded a perpetual
scholarship of one thousand dollars, the conditions of which are,
that the interest on this sum shall be paid annually, in equal
amounts, to the two applicants who attain a required rank high-
est in scholarship and deportment in the Senior Class.
The Baltimore Scholarship. — The Woman's College of
Baltimore extends to this Seminary the privilege of awarding
annually to a lady graduate a scholarship of the cash value of
five hundred ($500.00) dollars, entitling her to a four years'
course of study in that College.
The selection of the incumbent shall be made upon the nomi-
nation of the President of the faculty of the institution from
those young ladies, members of the graduating class, who shall
have entered their names as competitors for the scholarship
previous to the examination, and who shall be able to enter the
Freshman Class without conditions.
Contestants for these scholarships must register not later than
the close of the Winter term.

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 from Harrisburg, and three hours
from Elmira, and is reached directly by the Pennsylvania, the
Philadelphia & Reading, the Northern Central, the Philadel-
phia & Erie, the New York Central 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 be safely estimated that from ten to twelve thousand
persons have received Academic instruction, covering from one
to four years, in Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, while nine
hundred and forty-two have completed the prescribed curric-
ulum, graduating with the degrees the Institution confers. We
desire to bring all these into active sympathy and co-operation
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 27
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, with any information concerning their personal
history that may be of general interest, as we wish to compile a
complete catalogue 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 17, in the afternoon and evening. If you cannot
come, let us hear from you by letter.
And now, may we not ask you to aid in enlarging the sphere
and increasing the power of our A Ima 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 us their address on
a postal card. Carry the Seminary in your heart. She is do-
ing a worthy work, and earnestly asks her sons and daughters
to help her.

30 FIFTY- FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
COURSES OF STUDY.
In order to meet the wants of a larger class of students, ten regu-
lar Courses of Study are provided, namely: The Normal English,
Belles Lettres, Science and Literature, Classical, Practical Science,
College Preparatory, Art, Piano, Voice and Expression. 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 Course is designed to meet the increasing de-
mand for teachers in our Common Schools, and is heartily com-
mended to young ladies and gentlemen who desire thorough instruc-
tion 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 Lit-
erature and Science.
The Course in Science and Literature is intended to give wider
culture and more thorough mental discipline. It differs from the
Classical Courses mainly in that it omits the Greek Language entire-
ly, and makes Latin elective with German or French during the first
two years. Before entering upon this Course the student must be
thoroughly 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 Curricu-
lum adopted by our best institutions of learning. We offer it with
entire confidence to young men who are preparing for professional
life; 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 especially arranged
to meet the increasing demands for scientific and literary instruc-
tion by those who contemplate an Academic training. As a prepara-
tion 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 liter-
ary culture of a high-grade institution of learning and enjoy the so-
cial advantages of a well-regulated Christian home.

Courses in Reading.
A knowledge of Literature is a requisite of general culture, yet ob-
servation has shown that no branch of education is more neglected.
The majority of students devote little time to a course of collateral
reading, and consequently leave school without a well-defined taste
for literature. To promote a correct use of the English Language,
to enlarge the vocabulary, to develop a love for books, and to serve
as an introduction to the English Classics, is the purpose of this
Course.
To present a graded scheme in the study of literature is impos-
sible, but the aim of this plan, which extends through four years, is,
first, to gain the attention of the student by a pleasing narrative and
then gradually to advance him to more solid subjects.
Two works are read each term, except in the Academic and Soph-
omore years, and an examination is given on each work, one at the
middle and the other at the end of the term. The examination cov-
ers the general points of plot, style, idiom and vocabulary.

Any student preparing for any particular College will be examined
in the work prescribed by that College, upon application. The total
cost of all books in these Courses does not exceed fifty cents per
term.
Department of Music.
Miss Ellen Sophia Ransom, Director.
The aim in this department will be to give thorough instruction,
both in the technique and the aesthetics of the art; and to this end
only standard text-books and studies will be used. Students com-
pleting the Course will receive a Diploma.
Theoretical.
A thorough course in Harmony and History of Music is obligatory,
in both of which a satisfactory examination must be passed before
graduation.
An opportunity for practice in singing, sight-reading and cultiva-
tion of musical taste, is givetn in the Chorus Class, which meets
twice a week. This year they have studied Athalia, by Mendelssohn;
The Death of Minnehaha, by Coleridge Taylor; The Heavens are
Telling, by Haydn; and church music.
Students may enter the Courses in Instrumental or Vocal Music at
any point for which they are prepared, and are advanced according
to their ability and proficiency, not according to the number of terms
taken.
Students not wishing to take the Graduating Piano Course may
take a Coursei on the Reed Organ, selected by the teacher, and will
be granted a Diploma, if they acquire ability in reading ordinary
church music at sight, and in a manner sufficiently clear for purposes
of accompaniment.
A full Course of Violin Playing has also been prepared for the
benefit of those who are seeking superior attainments in this depart-
ment.
Pupils have Vocal Culture free of charge, in classes. Attendance
at Lectures on Composers required.
Weekly Musicals are held in Bradley Hall, in which all music stu-
dents take part. They are not intended as concerts for the public,
but to give an opportunity to become accustomed to an audience.
Lectures on the lives of musicians and talks on current events in
the musical world are given by the Director. Students have also op-
portunity to play at the Friday rhetorical exercises held during the
entire year, at the society anniversaries and during Commencement
week.

Expression.
Miss Augusta Helen Gilmore, M. E. L.
Expression is recognized as a most important branch of education.
This department 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 is taught as an art, resting upon recognized laws of nature,
which are so explained and illustrated as to give a thorough under-
standing of all the principles upon which this art is based.
The orator is educated, not by fashioning him after certain
model, but by quickening and developing all the intellectual facul-
ties, cultivating the imagination, disciplining all the agents of ex-
pression, and then leaving him free to express his thoughts and
emotions in accordance with his own temperament.
Every graduate in Expression is required to give a public recital.

Business Department.
This Course is designed to give a thorough knowledge of the prin-
ciples of business transactions. It may be pursued alone or in con-
nection 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 proficiency of the pu-
pil in the English branches, and the diligence with which he works.
Studies.
The Course will include instruction in the Common English
branches, Bookkeeping, Single and Double Entry; Stenography;
Typewriting, Business Correspondence, Business Papers of various
forms, Civil Government and Political Economy.
Tuition.
Students may enter the regular classes without additional cost for
tuition, except for Bookkeeping, for which $5.00 per term of three
months will be charged.
Board, Room, Washing, etc., same as in other departments.
Advantages.
This department offers all the opportunities for general culture
afforded Students in other departments, assured by well-conducted
literary societies, lectures, 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 re-
quisite.
Methods of Instruction.
The instruction in the Primary Department is based on the induc-
tive and objective methods, classes having objects presented which
are studied analytically. A series of Supplementary Readers, which
include writings of the best literary and historical authors, has
been introduced. The language lessons embrace Memory Lessons,
Dictation Exercises, Stories read for Reproduction, Exercises in
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 49
Letter Writing, Word Pictures and Composition Writing. Especial
attention is given to Arithmetic and the analysis of problems. His-
tory and geography are taught with the aid of maps, books of ref-
erence 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 methods of study consist chiefly in examination of
leaves, rocks and insects.
Instruction in Expression and Physical Culture is given by the
teacher of these branches. The teacher of Vocal Music has organized
a chorus class for the pupils in this department.
In Elementary Arithmetic, Grammar and Geography the catechet-
ical method is largely employed, but in Higher English the 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 what he has learned, in his own lan-
guage. In this manner, while he is adding to his store of knowl-
edge, he is enlarging his vocabulary, and while he is evolving prin-
ciples and acquiring facts, he is increasing his power of expression,
and thus unconsciously, it may be, but nevertheless surely, he lays
the foundation of an easy and concise style of composition.
In English and American Literature, the origin of the English lan-
guage 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 Psychology covers the second and the third terms
of the Senior year. It embodies definitions of the mental faculties,
and careful analysis 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 and Logic are taught in the Senior year. Text-books are
used and daily recitations are required. Class inquiries and dis-
cussions 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 cul-
tivate habits of clear, accurate and systematic thought and expres-
sion.
Geology is taken during the first term of the Senior year. A prac-
tical knowledge of the common rocks and minerals is acquired, and
50 FIFTY-FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
excursions are made to quarries and regions which illustrate vari-
ous geological formations. Each Student makes a written report and
collects characteristic specimens and fossils, representing the seven
different geological formations, admirably presented to view by out-
crops wkhin a few miles of the Seminary.
An Elementary Course in Biology is pursued in the Spring Term
of the Senior year, in which thorough preparation is made for tech-
nical advanced work. The simpler laws of life are taken up and
practical study is made of the fern, earthworm and frog. The oyster,
crab and cat are also dissected and the general relation in structure
and physiology of plants and animals is carefully brought out.
Physics embraces two terms of the Junior year. Mechanics,
Sound and Heat are taken in the Pall Term; and Optics, Electricity
and Magnetism in the Winter. The principles and laws are illus-
trated as far as practicable by apparatus. The relation between the
different branches is held strongly before the mind, and practical
questions, drawn from everyday 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.
In Botany, the laboratory method is followed. Compound micro-
scopes are accessible to the class, and pupils are provided with
a powerful lens and apparatus for plant dissection. The work is
taken up in the following order: Organs of Plants, growth from
seeds, root, stem, leaf, flowers and fruit; Natural Groups of Plants,
with especial studies of Algae, Fungi, Muscineae, Filcineae, etc.;
Gymnosperms, Monocotyledons, Dicotyledons, with studies of special
types under each heading.
The study of the plants themselves, their physiology and anatomy,
is made the important thing rather than plant analysis. Lectures
on the various plant relations are frequently given. A valuable col-
lection of Botanical specimens from Russelville, Ky., has been pre-
sented by Miss Myrtle Gray.
Chemistry 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 and is fully
equipped with apparatus and chemicals for advanced technical work.
The room is furnished with individual tables, each supplied with
gas, Bunsen's burner, ring stand, water, case with full set of re-
agents, 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. Each Student
keeping full notes on the experiments which are performed individ-
ually, becomes thoroughly familiar with chemicals and manipula-
tions.
A dark-room has been built and furnished with a complete pho-
tographic outfit, and Photography is taught during the Spring Term.
WILLTAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 51
Lectures on subjects of interest to the department are given from
time to time, illustrated by stereopticon views projected by a new
oxyhydrogen light.
Ancient languages.
In the departments of Greek and Latin, scrupulous attention is
given to the grammatical structure of these languages, their rela-
tion to English, the illustration and application of principles, ac-
curate translation, and to the literary significance of each author
studied. Mythology and Classical Geography are studied in the
Senior year. It is aimed to give 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
afford the usual mental discipline. Careful attention is also given
to those preparing for College or professional study.
Modern languages.
The Courses in French and German are designed to give the Stu-
dents a thorough knowledge of grammar, ability to read at sight,
and an appreciation of standard literature, both classical and modern.
The lives of authors are studied in connection with their work.
Instruction is given, as far as can be made practicable, in the lan-
guage taught, and conversation is gradually introduced in all classes.
Especial attention is paid to pronunciation and to written work.
Dictation and committing poetry to memory, form a part of the
regular work.
Informal French and German receptions, where only the language
taught is used, are held from time to time. Dialogues, declama-
tions and songs form a part of the evening's entertainment.
Mathematics.
The Course in Mathematics is co-extensive with that in the ma-
jority 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 practi-
cal 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.
A study of the courses pursued will indicate the extent of the
work done.
History and Rhetoric.
In the study of History the object is to familiarize the Student
with the main facts and principles, thus forming a foundation on
which to build by future reading and investigation. To this end
the text-book is thoroughly studied in connection with a Manual of
Classical Antiquities and an Atlas, while at the same time the Stu-
dent is encouraged to consult other authorities and bring in addi-
tional matter bearing on the subject. Recitations are by the analytical
and topical methods.
52 FIFTY-FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
Special attention is given to instruction in Rhetoric, 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 pro-
ductions in the various departments of literary composition, on

the class, where general criticisms are offered, after which they are
handed to the teacher for more careful correction.

ATHLETIC RECORD-1902-1903.
Adequate but not excessive attention has been given to ath-
letics during the season of 1902-1903. The results have been
exceedingly gratifying to the student body and their friends,
awaking a keener interest and a larger enthusiasm in field
sports, while at the same time the Seminary has been advanced
to the front rank in Inter-Scholastic Sports. Out of eight
games of football played last fall the team won six, scoring
201 points against 40 by its opponents. Appended is the

eight contestants entered, representing six schools, viz, the fol-
lowing: Mercersburg Academy, Dickinson Preparatory

ter-mile, third in the 120-yard hurdle, half-mile and quarter-
mile.

Opinions of Patrons and Friends.
That the public may know the estimate placed upon the
Seminary by those who are especially acquainted with its
management and work, we append some testimonials received
recently from patrons and friends :
WILLIAM SPORT, April 26, 1902.
REV. DR. EDWARD J. GRAY,
Dear Sir: Having been a patron of Williamsport Dickinson Semi-
nary for several years past, and having become familiar with the
work done therein, I feel safe in saying that in my judgment it is one
of the best educational institutions in the country. I am persuaded
that any student who will make a reasonable use of his or her time
and opportunities can obtain an education at this institution that will
thoroughly fit him or her for any occupation in life. It is a safe
school and thoroughly equipped to do the work it assumes to do. Its
management is excellent. H. T. AMES,
Attorney-at-Law.
RIDGWAY, Pa., April 29, 1902.
It gives me great pleasure to say a kind word in behalf of Wil-
liamsport Dickinson Seminary. My daughter has been a student in
the institution for the past two years, and the mental and moral
training she is receiving is so thorough that I entertain no fear for
her future success, but feel that she is being fitted for any sphere in
life.
Wishing you and the institution may live long and prosper, I am
Yours respectfully,
C. G. MINICK,
Bark and Land Superintendent for Elk Tanning Co.
CLEARFIELD, PA., April 29, 1902.
Three members of my family have attended the Seminary, and I
expect to send one or two others in the near future. I have a high ap-
preciation of the institution, especially of its discipline and moral
and religious influence. Parents can feel perfectly safe to put their
children under the care of Rev. Edward J. Gray, D. D., and this is
more than can be said of the presidents of some other institutions.
Very sincerely, J. E. GEARHART.
HASTINGS, PA., April 28, 1902.
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary possesses home comforts, health-
fulness, good discipline and the best facilities for mental and moral
culture, while it prepares its students for all elevating social re-
quirements. Being a patron for several years, these features com-
mend themselves to me, and with pleasure I commend the school to
all seeking educational advantages.
J. HORNING, Pastor M. E. Church.
RAMEY, PA., April 29, 1902.
My knowledge of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary was obtained
by three of my children — a son and two daughters — graduating at
this institution of learning. I consider it a first-class school in every
88 FIFTY-FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
respect. The care they receive and the protection thrown about them,
I consider equal to the parental roof. For location, health and clean-
liness it cannot be excelled.
I can heartily recommend those wishing to educate their children
to the Seminary at Williamsport, Pa.
JAMES H. MINDS, Coal Operator.
BEECH CREEK, April, 1902.
I gladly recommend Williamsport Dickinson Seminary to parents
seeking a good school for their children, or to any one seeking a
higher education. Having a son a graduate of this institution I know
it to be noted for its healthfulness, home comforts and facilities for
excellent mental and moral training.
J. E. TIBBINS, M. D.
RALSTON, PA., April 30, 1902.
After having one son graduate and two daughters take a partial
course at Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, we are glad to say we
have been much pleased with the school, and expect to have another
son enjoy its splendid privileges the coming school year.
Yours fraternally,
F. ADAMS, Pastor M. E. Church.
SUNBURY, PA., April 30, 1902.
I cheerfully commend Williamsport Dickinson Seminary to such
as may be seeking to acquire a higher education, and to parents who
may desire to place their children in a school well located from a sani-
tary standpoint, with many home comforts, excellent discipline and
with superior facilities for mental and moral culture. My informa-
tion relative to the school is chiefly derived from my two daughters
each of whom spent three years in the Seminary as a student.
Respectfully,
URIAS BLOOM, Cashier of Bank.
MADISON, N. J., April 26, 1902.
Three delightful, profitable years a student make it a pleasure for
me to state that a thorough, Christian training can be secured at
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary. The firm but kindly discipline
induces and fosters habits of study and the spirit of self-mastery.
The dignified social life of the school is uplifting and refining; the
Christian influence ennobling; the intellectual training most excel-
lent; the morals of the school such as tend toward noblest character.
To all who desire a good education, I most heartily recommend Wil-
liamsprt Dickinson Seminary.
J. HOWARD AKE, Student Drew Theological Seminary.
LEWISTOWN, PA., April 28, 1902.
For twenty-seven years I have been in close touch with the Semi-
nary, three years a student, graduating in 1881, my wife a student
later, my daughter graduating 1902, and three years pastor of the
Mulberry Street Methodist Episcopal Church. I can conscientiously
testify to the efficiency of the President, Dr. Edward James Gray, the
common-sense discipline, the splendid moral tone, and the thorough
mental drill of the students. Endowment is a pressing need of the
school. G. W. STEVENS, Pastor M. E. Church.
BALTIMORE, MD„ April, 1902.
From my knowledge of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, through
my daughter's life there, I consider the mental training very thorough.
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 89
the care for physical condition of the student exceedingly thoughtful,
and the moral influence of the very best. I can, therefore, cheerfully
recommend it to any parent who is seeking a first-class school, where
mind, body and spirit shall be thoroughly trained.
SARAH E. SEAGER, Vice-Principal Public School.
MARION STATION, MD„ April, 1902.
I spent one year at Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, and
wish that I could have completed my education. My son spent four
years in the Seminary, and he has no regrets for attending the in-
stitution.
The discipline of the school is good, the location is beautiful, the
surroundings are healthful and the teachers are thoroughly fitted for
their work.
I advise any young person wishing a good education to send for a
catalogue. NATHAN T. CONNOR, Post Master.
BOSTON, MASS, April 29, 1902.
I take great pleasure in writing you this letter. My sisters have
never ceased speaking of the good which they received through
the teachings of yourself and your assistants. My younger sister,
who was always an invalid, I think was never ill a day in Williams-
port, and when through school was greatly improved by the many
advantages which your school had to offer. Yours very truly,
EDWARD R. GRABOW,
Of Ainslie & Grabow, Proprietors of New Ocean House, Swampscott,
Mass.
LAURELTON, PA., April 29, 1902.
I consider Williamsport Dickinson Seminary one of the leading
schools of our State. The facilities for mental and moral culture are
complete, the discipline most beneficial, home comfort and health-
ness unsurpassed. My opinion is based mainly on the training given
to two of my children, attending the school a total of six years, and
the training of many young men and women who have gone from the
school to succeed in whatever they have undertaken. To their train-
ing at the Seminary, many of them have cheerfully acknowledged
their success in life was due.
S. W. RUTHERFORD, Merchant.
JERSEY SHORE, PA., May 1, 1902.
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary prepared my son thoroughly for
college. Its facilities, healthfulness, present improved comforts are
very special. The Music Hall and its system of teaching may be also
most highly commended. The institution should be over-crowded
with students. Yours very truly,
W. V. GANOE, Pastor M. E. Church.
STRASBURG, PA., April 30, 1902.
I have been entrusted with the education of three daughters, the
eldest graduated at Hackettstown Collegiate Institute; the second
at the Woman's College, Baltimore, and the youngest elected Wil-
liamsport Dickinson Seminary, and is now finishing the second year.
From what I know, my estimate on moral lines gives Williamsport
Dickinson Seminary the precedence of the three. The social and
home life is fine. The supervision for the best interest of a child in
the formative period of life could not be better at home.
Therefore, commending the Seminary to all parents who want a
school to which they may leave their children with confidence in hav-
ing their interests guarded as they would at home, I remain,
Respectfully,
W. K. BENDER, Agriculturist and Insurance.

REISTERTOWN, PA., April, 1902.
After spending three years in Williamsport Dickinson Seminary I
heartily recommend it to parents desiring for their daughters a liberal
education in the Classics or Arts. BEULAH E. MILLER,
Teacher Frankland High School.
RAYS HILL, PA., April, 1902.
I have one son a graduate of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, and
another a student there at time of writing. I think the school excels
in the opportunities and advantages it affords to poor young men and
women, the moral and religious influence it exerts, and in the social
advantages it offers; life there partaking much of the home spirit.
The contact with goodness and culture in both sexes, the excellent in-
struction received has such an influence as cannot fail to have a good
effect upon the life subject to them.
Sincerely.
ROBERT M. SKILLINGTON, Farmer.
HEADSVILLE, W. VA., May 5, 1902.
It gives me great pleasure to recommend Williamsport Dickinson
Seminary to the public, having had a daughter, relatives and friends
graduate from it. It is Christian to the core, and can give a reason
for the faith that it maintains. It furnishes a healthful home and a
practical education. ISAAC CARSKADON, Farmer.
SHAMOKIN, PA., May 5, 1902.
It affords me great pleasure to bear favorable testimony respecting
the home and religious life of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary.
My knowledge of the school has been obtained principally from
having my three children there, covering a period of more than
seven years, all of whom graduated from that institution. The dis-
cipline and the facilities for mental and moral culture are of the
best. I heartily commend the school to parents or guardians having
children to educate. Respectfully,
C. L. BENSCOTER,
Pastor Second M. E. Church.
NEW WASHINGTON, PA., April, 1902.
I cheerfully recommend Williamsport Dickinson Seminary to any
perent wishing a good home and school for son or daughter. I
have had five of my family in the school, and spent some time there
myself with a very sick daughter. The kindness shown us at that
time will never be forgotten. Their instruction has been very satis-
factory. MRS. MARY McMURRAY, Merchant
ANNAPOLIS, MD, May, 1902.
My knowledge of the school is personal, for three of the happiest
years of my life were spent there.
The discipline is excellent, and so, also, the systematic way in which
everything is done. I have never forgotten the kindness shown to-
ward me, and gladly take the opportunity to speak a good word for
the school. The place is like a great home.
FRANCES M. BASIL, Music Teacher.
CHICAGO, ILL., May 2, 1902.
We think few schools can equal Williamsport Dickinson Seminary
in healthfulness and discipline, and from my personal observation
while there I saw that Dr. Gray would take a parent's care of his
pupils. Yours truly,
W. J. HEMSTREET, Insurance Agent
WILLIAMSPOKT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 91
JERSEY SHORE, PA., May, 1902.
I am very glad, indeed, to commend Williamsport Dickinson Semi-
nary. My knowledge of the school is not personal, having never been
a student, but I have been impressed with the excellency of the school
since my daughter spent two years there.
The splendid instruction in the class-room, the atmosphere of high
thinking, with the excellent musical advantages and the healthful
location, combine to make it an institution worthy of highest recom-
mendation. Very truly yours,
C. B. SEEDY, Editor.
TOWN HIDD, May, 1902.
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary is to be commended for the in-
spiring influence it exerts upon the life of young people. This in-
fluence is due to the three factors which dominate the life and work
of the school:
(1) Her homelike-qualities; she seeks to provide for the health
and happiness of all.
(2) Her methods and discipline; she endeavors to instill the value
of system into each life.
(3) Her facilities for mental and moral culture. Her highest aim
is to supply the world with highest types of manhood and woman-
hood. While she endeavors to enlighten and expand the mind, she
ever keeps before her the fact that heart-culture — love toward God
and man — is equally, if not more, necessary.
I can attest to her power and influence upon my life, having passed
her curriculum, and readily recommend her to all seeking a good
home and a higher education.
W. L. ARMSTRONG, Minister.
PHIDADELPHIA, PA., May 14, 1902.
I was for several years a student in Williamsport Dickinson Semi-
nary, and three times a conference visitor. I have been for
the last three years a patron, and as secretary of the Philadelphia
Conference Educational Society I have for two years conducted a cor-
respondence with the President and with such students as were bene-
ficiaries of the said Society.
I most cheerfully and unqualifiedly recommend the Seminary to all
parents and guardians who desire a thorough and a Christian educa-
tion for their children and wards. Among the special attractions of
the Seminary is its home-like character, to which Mrs. E. J. Gray has
largely and effectively contributed, and for which hundreds of stu-
dents will hold her in grateful and loving remembrance.
The institution has done much for education and religion, and de-
serves the generous support of the Church.
S. A. HEILNER,
Pastor St. James M. E. church.
TYRONE, PA., May 1902.
My acquaintance with Williamsport Dickinson Seminary covers
a period of twenty-five years. In location it is delightful and health-
ful, in home comforts and social life all that could be desired, in in-
tellectual and moral training unsurpassed.
Two of my sons being graduates, and myself having been a resi-
dent pastor in Williamsport for four years, have brought me into close
touch with the institution.
With this personal knowledge of its life and work, I most heartily
commend it to those desiring a higher education.
J. A. WOOD, JR.,
Pastor First M. E. Church.
92 FIFTY- FIFTH ANNUAL CATALOGUE
BEVERLY, MASS., May, 1902.
I count it a great privilege to have been a student at Williamsport
Dickinson Seminary, which is beautifully situated in a most healthful
part of Pennsylvania. The educational advantages of the school are
excellent. Its discipline tends to prepare for the sterner duties of life
— firm, yet not burdensome. The Christian atmosphere which
pervades the school is both helpful and edifying. Its highest aim is
to develop those qualities which make noble manhood and woman-
hood. FLORENCE BARTCH FORD.
FREDERICK, MD„ May 20, 1902.
I can with great confidence recommend Williamsport Dickinson
Seminary to the patronage of the public. Having been myself a stu-
dent at the institution, I have personal knowledge of its superior ad-
vantages in its pleasant and healthful location, and its refining moral
culture, and I believe it to be worthy of a liberal and general sup-
port from all who appreciate the value of a superior education.
JOHN C. MOTTER, Judge Circuit Court.
PHILIPSBURG, PA., May 16, 1902.
I regard Williamsport Dickinson Seminary as at least the equal
of any school of its kind in this country. I have been in touch with
it for nine years. Three of my children were graduates. I am deeply
impressed with its home-like character, its healthfulness, the mild-
ness but firmness, of its discipline, and the facilities for mental and
moral culture to be found there.
I have no hesitancy in commending it to those seeking higher edu-
cation, and to parents who desire a safe place for the education of
their children. G .D. PENEPACKER, Pastor M. E. Church.
WILLIAMSPORT, PA., May 17, 1902.
As a neighboring minister of the Williamsport Dickinson Seminary,
as pastor of those students who are Presbyterians, and a father
whose daughter spent two years in the Seminary, I wish, after five
years' close observation, to express my strong admiration of and
gratitude for the spiritual tone, moral carefulness, intellectual thor-
oughness, and general worth of the institution.
WILLIAM DAYTON ROBERTS,
Pastor First Presbyterian Church.
WOOLRICH, PA., May 27, 1902.
Having been a student in Williamsport Dickinson Seminary for
three years, a part of which period was under the early administra-
tion of Rev. Dr. Gray, and since having had one son and two daugh-
ters in attendance, one of whom graduated and the other a student
in the institution at the present time, I can say that in my judgment
it is a safe home for young people, especially for young ladies. As all
gain rapidly in weight and physical strength, it is certainly very
healthful. The facilities for mental and moral culture are excellent,
while the literary societies are a great help to industrious students.
I commend the institution to parents seeking a safe and comfortable
home, as well as a good school, for their children.
M. B. RICH, Woolen Manufacturer.
HOYTVILLE PA., May 24, 1902.
I take great pleasure in commending Williamsport Dickinson Sem-
inary, having had a daughter graduate from it. The school proved
entirely satisfactory, especially as to discipline and home comforts,
and I would recommend it to those seeking a higher education.
G. W. DARBY, Farmer.
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY. 93
MILLERSBURG, PA., May, 1902.
Three of my children have graduated from "Old Dickinson," and I
also graduated in 1863. I consider it a fine institution, and for dis-
cipline, culture, healthfulness, and Christian training it has no equal
in the country. S. S. BOWMAN, Attorney-at-Law.
JEFFERSON CITY, MO., May, 1902.
My knowledge of your Seminary, derived from my daughters, who
were day pupils while in attendance, enables me to speak highly of
its healthfulness, discipline and excellent features for mental and
moral culture, resulting in their marked advancement, general im-
provement, and successful attainments while remaining under its
care. Respectfully,
OSCAR G. BURCH,
Cashier First National Bank.
GIRARDVILLE, PA., May, 1902.
I have received my knowledge of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary
from my daughter, who recently graduated from that institution.
The facilities for mental culture and development are excellent, the
variety of courses gives the student the opportunity of selecting the
line of study for which he is best adapted. The location of the Sem-
inary is not only pleasant, but healthful as well — a fact of great im-
portance to be considered in connection with our education.
Respectfully,
H. B. JOHNSON,
Justice of the Peace.
BALTIMORE, MD., May, 1902.
I consider the work of the Seminary, over which you preside, as of a
very high order. The school is admirably located. Parents need not
hesitate to send their children to an institution of learning where the
discipline, moral atmosphere and mental training are so excellent as
at Williamsport Dickinson Seminary.
I have been a resident of Williamsport for twelve years, and am a
patron of the school, and have had opportunity to know whereof I
speak. Yours very cordially,
S. G. READING,
Pastor Hampden Baptist Church.
ALTOONA, PA., May, 1902.
It affords me a great deal of pleasure to commend Williamsport
Dickinson Seminary to all persons desiring to send their children to
a school embracing all the comforts of a home, healthfulness and
every facility for mental and moral culture. Perhaps it might be
well to mention that my reason for recommending the school is based
on having had a daughter graduate from it last year, after being with
you three years. Yours very truly,
W. W. RUDISILL, Jeweler.
