GENERAL INFORMATION
The School
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY is a high
grade boarding school for both sexes. It offers two years
of college and four years of preparatory work, also
courses in music, art, expression, home economics, and business.
Location
It is located at Williamsport, Pennsylvania, "The Queen
City of the West Branch of the Susquehanna River," on the
famed Susquehanna Trail, midway between Buffalo, New York,
and Washington, D. C. Statistics prove it to be the healthiest
city in the State of Pennsylvania, and it is reported to be the
third healthiest city in the United States. Williamsport is fa-
mous for its picturesque scenery, its beautiful homes, and the
culture and kindness of its people. The Pennsylvania, the Read-
ing, and the New York Central Railroads, with their fast trains,
put it within two hours' reach of Harrisburg, four and a half
hours of Philadelphna, and seven hours of Pittsburgh.
History
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary was founded in 1848 by a
group of men of Williamsport under the leadership of Rev.
Benjamin H. Crever, who, hearing that the old Williamsport
Academy was about to be discontinued, proposed to accept the
school and conduct it as a Methodist educational institution.
Their offer was accepted and, completely reorganized, with a new
president and faculty, it opened September, 1848, as Dickinson
Seminary, under the patronage of the old Baltimore Conference.
It was acquired in 1869 and is still owned by the Preachers' Aid
Society of the Central Pennsylvania Conference of the Meth-
odist Episcopal Church, and is regularly chartered under the
laws of the State of Pennsylvania. It is not a money-making
institution. All of its earnings as well as the generous gifts of
its friends have been spent for maintenance and improvements.
During a large part of its history its curriculum covered the
work now included in a high school course and at the same time
included about two years of college work. By its charter it is
empowered to grant degrees, which authority was for a time
exercised. In 1912 it began to confine itself to the college pre-
10
paratory field and has continued in that field up to the present
time. After considering both the opportunity and the need of
doing more advanced work, the Board of Directors at their meet-
ing in October, 1928, voted to continue the college preparatory
and general academic work, and to add two years of college
work, paralleling the freshman and sophomore years in a liberal
arts college. These junior college courses are outlined herein
and may be found on later pages of this catalogue.
Grounds and Buildings
The campus is located near the center of the City on a slight
eminence, which causes the Seminary to be affectionately re-
ferred to as "the school upon the hilltop." Stately elms, maples,
and trees of other variety add beauty and dignity to the campus
and form an attractive setting for the imposing buildings. To
the south and across the Susquehanna, within twenty minutes'
walk, is the beautiful White Deer Range of the Allegheny Moun-
tains, aflfording a view of perennial charm. To the north are
the Grampian Hills. In fact Williamsport, "beautiful for loca-
tion," is seldom surpassed or equaled in its wealth of beautiful
scenery.
On the campus stand the buildings conveniently grouped.
They are of brick and steel construction, heated by steam from
a central plant, lighted by electricity and supplied throughout with
hot and cold water and all modern conveniences. The rooms
are large, airy and well lighted.
The Main Building is an imposing structure of brick and oc-
cupies the central part of the campus. In this building are the
administrative offices, dining room, library, chapel, school parlor,
class rooms, and dormitories. There are hardwood floors
throughout.
Bradley Hall is the Fine Arts Building. It was erected in
1895 of red brick and is modem in construction. The splendid
music studios and practice rooms, the art studios, and the ac-
commodations for the Home Economics Department are here.
The dormitory rooms in this building are large and afford splen-
did quarters for the girls in the Junior College Department.
The Service Building is also of red pressed brick and is a
modem fireproof building. The basement and the first floor
house the heating plant and the laundry. The second and third
floors contain dormitories and will be used for the boys of the
Junior College Department.
12
;i
The Swimming Pool
The Bowling Alley
The Maids' Building is located directly back of the Main
Building and provides quarters for the maids employed by the
school. On the first floor is the school bakery.
The New Gymnasium
The new gymnasium, which was dedicated November 8, 1924,
meets the needs for more adequate equipment in the department
of Physical Education which was felt for a long time.
The building itself is 110 ft. by 88 ft. 6 in., of semi-fireproof
construction, and of beautiful design. The exterior is of red
brick corresponding with Bradley Hall and the Service Building,
with limestone and granite trimmings. A feature of the exterior
architecture is a balcony over the entrance portico.
Entrance to the new building is through a pretentious vesti-
bule flanked on either side with stairs of ornamental iron and
marble. Leading from the entrance hall is a door to a retiring
room for women, provided with ample toilet facilities. To the
left is a room for the Physical Director and an examination
room, from which point of vantage the entire gymnasium is
under the personal supervision of the Physical Director at all
times.
The basement includes a modern swimming pool 20x60 ft.,
equipped with a sterilization and filtration plant, that will ne-
cessitate changing the water only four times a year. The pool
is constructed of tile and is amply lighted, with large sash to the
open air making a sunlit pool at nearly all hours of the day.
There are also two bowling alleys of latest design with sepa-
rate private rooms and showers for both home and visiting teams.
Provision for private dressing rooms and shower rooms for girls
and women is made.
The gymnasium floor proper is 90x65 ft. with a stage at the
easterly end so that the main floor can readily be converted into
an auditorium if need be, suitable for recitals and even more
pretentious productions. In every way the building is a center
of athletic, social and cultural activities.
Aim
The purpose of Dickinson Seminary is to prepare students
for their life work in a homelike religious atmosphere at a mini-
mum cost. In its Preparatory Department it fits its students for
any college or technical school. For those who do not plan to
go to college it offers exceptionally strong courses leading to
13
appropriate diplomas. In the Junior College Department it aims
to give two years of college work under the most favorable
conditions, especially appealing to those who graduate from high
school at an early age and who would like to take the first two
years of college work under conditions affording more intimate
personal contacts with the teachers and assuring personal interest
and helpful guidance. It offers a large amount of college work
in the form of electives to those whose college career will likely
be confined to two years.
A Home School
The Seminary recognizes the fact that it is more than a
school. It accepts responsibility for the home life of its students
as well. Every effort is put forth to make the Seminary as home
like as possible. Here lasting friendships are formed, and
memories are stored up to which they may, in future years, look
back with affection and pride.
Cultural Influences
The Seminary aims to develop in its students an easy fa-
miliarity with the best social forms and customs. Intercourse
with young people of both sexes in the dining hall, at receptions
and other social functions, together with frequent talks by in-
structors, do much in this way for both girls and boys. Persons
of prominence are brought to the school for talks and lectures,
and excellent talent provides for recreation and entertainment.
Two courses of entertainment are provided by community or-
ganizations which bring the best artistic talent to the city.
Students whose grades justify it are permitted and urged to take
advantage of these opportunities.
Religious Influences
The Seminary is a religious school. It is not sectarian. At
least four religious denominations are represented on its Board
of Directors. Every student is encouraged to be loyal to the
church of his parents. The atmosphere of the school is posi-
tively religious. Every effort is made to induce students to enter
upon the Christian life and be faithful thereto.
A systematic study of the Bible is required of all students.
Regular attendance is required at the daily chapel service. Stu-
dents attend the Sunday morning service at one of the churches
in the city. On Sunday evening all attend a Vesper Service
14
held in the school chapel. There is a weekly Prayer Service
conducted by the President, a member of the faculty, or a visit-
ing speaker. There are chapters of Young Men's and Young
Women's Christian Associations that do active work in promoting
the religious life of the school.
Government
It is aimed to develop in each student a sense of loyalty to
the Seminary and a sense of fitness in his actions through the
appeals of ideals and examples. Offenses are dealt with by the
withdrawal of certain student privileges ; while good work in class
room and good conduct in school life are rewarded by special
privileges granted only upon the attainment of certain levels of
scholarship and deportment.
It is understood that students entering Dickinson Seminary
do so with the intention of making an honest effort to do satis-
factory work in every respect. Where a student is not able to
conform to the school program, the parents or guardians are
asked to withdraw the student from the school.
Coeducation
Coeducation, properly administered, is both highly satisfactory
and desirable. In a coeducational school where boys and girls
associate under proper conditions and supervision their influences
are mutually helpful. Boys become more refined and careful of
their appearance and conduct. Girls learn to appreciate the
sterling qualities of purposeful boys rather than the more flashy
attractions of the fop when they are permitted to associate and
compete with them in the activities of school life.
The apartments of the girls are entirely separate from those
of the boys. Proper supervision of the girls and boys is main-
tained at all times.
Faculty
The Faculty is composed of thoroughly trained, carefully se-
lected Christian men and women. The two ideals they hold be-
fore themselves are scholarship and character. They live with
the students, room on the same halls, eat at the same tables, and
strive in every way to win their confidence and friendship. The
Seminary aims to make the home and working conditions of the
members of the faculty so pleasant they will be encouraged to
do their very best work and look forward to years of pleasant
and helpful service in the school. This policy has resulted in
building up a faculty of which we are justly proud.
15
Athletics and Physical Training (Boys)
The object of this department is to promote the general
health and the physical and intellectual efficiency of the students.
Persistent effort is made to interest everybody in sortie form of
indoor and outdoor sports. All forms of sane and healthful
exercise are encouraged, but excesses and extravagances are
discouraged. The athletic teams are carefully selected and syste-
matically trained. They are sent into a game to win if they can,
but more emphasis is placed upon playing the game fair and
straight than upon winning. The Seminary is represented each
year in inter-scholastic contests by football, basketball, baseball,
track and tennis teams. An excellent athletic field offers every
facility for football, baseball, tennis, and other out-door sports.
Athletics and Physical Training (Girls)
The aim of this work is the care and the development of the
body by means of appropriate exercises. The results to be
achieved are better health, good poise, and the overcoming of
such physical defects as will yield to corrective exercises. A
portion of the time each week is given to physical culture with
the purpose that the body may become free and more graceful.
The gymnastic exercises consist largely of floor work and include
arm and leg exercises, dumbbell, wand and Indian club work.
All the girls are given training in basketball according to girls'
rules.
Library
A reference library is part of the equipment of the Seminary
and every effort is made to train the student in an intelligent
use of the same.
The James V. Brown Library is within two squares of the
Seminary. Its large collection of books as well as its courses of
lectures and entertainments are freely open to all students of
the Seminary.

THE JUNIOR COLLEGE
The Board of Directors of Williamsport Dickinson Seminary
at their fall meeting in October, 1928, decided to establish a Junior
College Department with a desire to enlarge the scope of service
and influence of the Seminary. This department offers the Fresh-
man and Sophomore years of college work. It is not intended to
interfere in any way with the excellent College Preparatory De-
partment which the school has maintained from the beginning.
The junior college work is organized on a separate basis. The
college students will room in separate dormitories and meet in
separate classes; the faculty will meet all of the standard re-
quirements for college teachers, and the work will in all ways
be of a collegiate grade.
The following considerations were taken into account in add-
ing junior college work:
In recent years the enrollment in institutions of higher learn-
ing in Pennsylvania has increased rapidly, far above the average
for the United States and without a proportionate increase in
college facilities. While a great many new high schools have
been built and most communities have increased their high school
facilities, few colleges have been established in the last fifty
years. The lack in expansion and building equipment has re-
sulted in overcrowding and limiting enrollment.
Students are graduating from high schools at an early age.
Crowding into the larger universities while so immature results
in a large freshman mortality which every one, particularly the
parents and young people themselves, would like to avoid. At-
tending a preparatory school after graduating from high school
has its advantages, but the scholastic work in that case is largely
review while those who attend a Junior College get all the ad-
vantages of a boarding school and their scholastic work is of a
collegiate grade.
The Junior College offers many special advantages. Smaller
classes, more frequent contacts with the professors, and larger
opportunity for self-expression are some of the most obvious
advantages. Probably its chief justification is in helping every
student to find himself before he enters into the larger life and
freedom of the university.
The Seminary has been including advanced courses in its cur-
riculum, but because it was not organized on a college basis stu-
dents taking this work were not given advanced standing in
17
higher institutions. A careful survey of the Seminary's facilities
and faculty has revealed the fact that it is a very easy matter to
organize on a college basis. At least two new members of college
grade will be added to the faculty, and Hbrary and laboratory
equipment will be increased, and a full time librarian added to
the staff. The standards for junior colleges set up by the Asso-
ciation of Colleges and Preparatory Schools of the Middle States
and Maryland will be met from the beginning with the opening
of school September, 1929, and additional courses and members
of the faculty will be added as the enrollment in and development
of the junior college program warrants.
The Seminary's enviable record made through eighty years
of educational effort in which the highest standards of scholar-
ship and character have been maintained is the best guarantee
that this new department will be maintained on the same high
level, embodying the best of the old and the new in educational
theory and practice.
Requirements for Admission
Fifteen units of high school work are required for admission
to the junior college department. Graduates of accredited high
schools are accepted on certificate. Students wishing to pursue
a liberal arts course with a view toward completing the remaining
years elsewhere should be able to present credentials for the
following :
English 3 units*
Algebra Ij^ units
Plane Geometry 1 unit
Science 1 unit
Foreign Language 2 units
History 1 unit
Electives 5 J^ imits
Total 15 units
Where the student wishes to pursue only special studies or
courses the above mentioned units are not applicable in detail.
In addition to the above scholastic requirements every candi-
date for admission must present a certificate of good moral char-
acter from some responsible person, a recommendation from his
high school principal ; and upon admission he must present a
certificate of vaccination from his physician.
* A unit of work represents a year's study in any subject in a secondary
school consisting of approximately a quarter of a full year's work. Four
years of English, however, are considered as only three units.
18
Requirements for Graduation
The Seminary does not award degrees. Upon completion of
64 semester hours of work the junior college diploma will be
awarded.
Required Work for the Freshman Year
English 6 hours
Mathematics or Science 6 or 8 hours
History 6 hours
Foreign Language 6 hours
Orientation 2 hours
Electives 6 hours
Total 32 or 34 hours
Required Work for the Sophomore Year
English 6 hours
Foreign Language 6 hours
Electives 18 or 20 hours
Total 30 or 32 hours
Students who desire two years' work of college grade and
who do not for the present plan to attend a senior college later,
may choose their work in both the Freshman and Sophomore
years from a wide range of electives including Bible, Religious
Education, Economics, Business Administration, Sociology,
Psychology, Public Speaking, and Home Economics. The special
departments in Music and Art offer unusual facilities to the
students planning only two years of college work.
Only the work of the Freshman year will be given during
the school year 1929-30. Thereafter both Freshman and Sopho-
more years of work will be offered.
COURSES OF INSTRUCTION
Bible
The Life of Christ as recorded in the Synoptic Gospels, with
a detailed study of the Gospel according to Luke. Two hours,
first semester.
The Founding of the Christian Church. A detailed study of
The Acts. Two hours, second semester.
Biology
A beginning course in the underlying principles of biology
involving a study of the main types of plants and animals from
the standpoint of structure, functions, and environment. The
laboratory work will consist of a study of the simplest organisms,
passing gradually to those plants and animals of increasing com-
plexity of structure and function. Opportunity will thus be
19
given, through dissection and microscopic study, for individual
observation of the facts and principles discussed in the classroom.
Two hours lecture and recitation and two two-hour laboratory
periods.
Three hours credit.
Chemistry
A descriptive study of the metals and non-metals and their
compounds with a careful treatment of the fundamental laws and
theories of chemical composition and action. Industrial applica-
tions will be considered, and drill will be given in the solving of
the common types of chemical problems. Lectures, demonstra-
tions, and recitations will be accompanied by individual labora-
tory work where emphasis will be placed upon the pupil making
careful observations, and recording accurate descriptions of re-
sults. Three hours lecture and recitation and two two-hour
laboratory periods.
Four hours credit.
Economics and Business Administration
Principles of Economics. The course is designed to familiar-
ize the student with the terminology and the working principles
of economics. A study is made of human wants and of the
production, exchange, distribution, and consumption of wealth
essential to their satisfaction. The relations of government to
industry are also examined.
Throughout the year — 3 hours credit each semester.
Commercial Law. A detailed study is made of the funda-
mental, rather than the technical, principles of those legal sub-
jects of which some knowledge is necessary in order to carry
on intelligently the ordinary business transactions, including con-
tracts, sales, agency, and the like.
First Semester — 3 hours credit.
Business Administration. This course is planned to cover the
fundamental principles of commercial organization and business
administration. Attention is given to problems of internal or-
ganization, methods of capitalization, working capital, dividends,
marketing, industrial organization, and scientific management.
Given in 1930.
Throughout the year — 3 hours credit each semester.
English
English Composition. In the first semester, a thorough review
of the principles of composition and rhetoric is given and illus-
trated with effective practice in the writing of themes. The
20
literary types are studied in the second semester and supple-
mented with selected readings in English literature. Weekly
individual conferences facilitate progress in written composition.
Required of Freshmen,
Three hours each semester.
A course consisting of drill in English grammar, one hour a
week, is required of all Freshmen who fail to pass the place-
ment examination given at the opening of the first semester.
Advanced Composition. An intensive study of the literary
types — ^poetry, drama, novel, essay, short story — is pursued. Em-
phasis is placed on the reading of masterpieces of English litera-
ture. Special attention is also given to advanced work in com-
position with helpful criticism in individual conferences. Re-
quired of Sophomores.
To be given in 1930.
Survey Course in English and American Literature. The
course in literature includes in the first semester a survey of the
field of English literature with special attention to the outstand-
ing writers and to their social and historical backgrounds. The
same plan will be followed in the study of American literature
in the second semester. Elective.
Three hours each semester.
To be given in 1930.
French
Intermediate French. For students who have had two or
three years of High School French. Grammar reviewed. Read-
ing of texts selected from the works of the best French authors.
Composition and conversation emphasized.
Survey of French Literature. The aim of the course is to
give a thorough knowledge of French literature from the be-
ginning to 1900. Lectures, collateral readings, class discussions,
and composition.
German
The courses in German are designed with two main objec-
tives : ( 1 ) To equip the student with a working knowledge of
the language necessary to an understanding of German culture ;
and (2) to impart a knowledge of the development of German
literature and to foster appreciation of its masterpieces.
Because of its literary importance and because of its value
in research, German is rapidly regaining its former position
among foreign languages. Students who anticipate taking up
21
graduate study or who expect to pursue the study of medicine
or of chemistry should have a reading knowledge of the language.
At least two years of college German is necessary for this
purpose.
Beginning German. This course is devoted to the study of
grammar and composition and to the reading of simple prose.
Oral use of the language is gradually introduced.
Throughout the Year. Three hours credit each semester.
Intermediate German. This course is intended to give the
student a good reading knowledge of the language. Special at-
tention is given to grammar and composition. Besides Schiller's
Wilhelm Tell a considerable amount of modern prose is read.
Throughout the Year. Three hours credit each semester.
Greek
The Greek course in the Junior College consists of two years
of advanced work, the first in classical, and the second in New
Testament Greek.
The first year Homer's Iliad, Books I-IV, are read. There
is a study of the poetic form with much drill in scansion. The
study of constructions, prose composition, and sight translations
are continued. The work of this year is made more interesting
because of a study of Greek mythology which forms so large a
part of the Iliad. In addition to Homer, there are selections from
Herodotus, and the Lyric Poets.
Three hours. Throughout the year.
The course in New Testament Greek is of especial interest
to prospective students of theology. Much of the New Testa-
ment is read, with more detailed work in the Gospels of John
and Mark. Attention is given to the peculiarities of New Testa-
ment vocabulary, forms, and constructions. After this course the
student is able to appreciate the advantage of reading in the
original, rather than in translation.
Three hours. Throughout the year.

who completes any one of the following courses : College Pre-
paratory, General Academic, History and Literature, Regular
Commercial, Piano, Voice, Violin, Expression, Art and Home
Economics.
Students completing a course in one of the special depart-
ments but without the necessary academic requirements will be
awarded a certificate instead of a diploma.
The College Preparatory course offered by the Seminary
covers the needs of those preparing for college and technical
school.
The minimum requirement for graduation in the College
Preparatory course consists of fifteen college entrance units,
three of which must be in English, and two and one-half of
which must be in Mathematics. American History, one unit of
Science, and not less than two each of two Foreign Languages
or four of one Foreign Language must be included in the fif-
teen units.

COURSES OF INSTRUCTION
Bible
The study of the Bible is required once a week of all stu-
dents. The Bible is studied historically and not theologically.
The material presented in the first four courses covers the re-
quirements of one unit for college entrance.
I. Old Testament. The history of the Old Testament is
studied carefully from the beginning to the division of the King-
dom. Selected passages are memorized. Maps are required.
Topics are assigned for investigation. Active use is made of the
Bible itself.
II. Old Testament. A study of Hebrew history from the
division of the PCingdom to the birth of Christ. Maps. Memory-
selections. Some time is given to a study of the prophets and
their writings, and to the Wisdom Literature of the Old Testa-
ment.
III. The Life of Christ. A careful study of the life and-
times of Christ with memorizing of important passages. Maps.
Discussions. Original work. Emphasis upon His contributions
to modern life.
IV. New Testament History and Literature. The life of
St. Paul and the beginning of the Church. A careful study is
made of Paul's missionary journeys and his writings. A survey
of the literature of the Bible with suitable memory selections.
Classical Languages
The practical value of a study of the classics has often been
questioned, but nothing has ever been found to take their place.
The classics are still retained in the best courses of the best
schools, and are pre-eminently adapted to bring the student to
an acquaintance with the sources of inspiration of all the litera-
ture of succeeding periods.
Greek
First Year
First Greek Book, White. The first year is devoted to a
thorough drill of forms, and study of constructions. Stress is
placed upon translation of Greek sentences, including short para-
graphs, giving, in simplified form, the connected story of the
30
Anabasis. In this way a practical vocabulary is learned for
second year work. There is also the writing of English sen-
tences in Greek, and a study of English derivatives.
Second Year
The second year offers, first, a review of grammar, and then
an advanced and more detailed study of the fundamentals of the
language, together with work in prose composition. The work
in translation includes Xenophon's Anabasis, Books I-IV, and
sight translations from Book V. Goodwin's Greek Grammar is
used as a reference book.
Latin
First Year: Careful study of simple Latin forms and con-
structions. Sight and prepared translation of connected Latin
sentences. Prose composition. Vocabulary building. Study of
simple English derivatives. Frequent reviews to fix the work.
Second Year: Thorough and systematic review of First Year
forms and constructions. Continued study of more difficult in-
flections and principles of syntax. The readings are confined to
easy stories, Roman history and biographies, the first semester,
and to selections from Caesar, the second semester. Study of
English derivatives continued. Prose composition.
Third Year: Review of grammar of the First and Second
Years. The readings are limited mainly to the select orations
and letters of Cicero. Attention is directed to the style, per-
sonality, and influence of the author, and such phases of Roman
life are studied as will lead to a better understanding of the
Latin read. Prose composition.
Fourth Year: Review of grammar of the previous years.
The readings are confined to selections from Ovid and Vergil's
Aeneid. Scansion is emphasized. Assigned readings in mytho-
logy. Continued study of such phases of Roman life as will
help the student better to understand the text read.
English
The purpose of the work in English is to develop, as far as
possible, in every student, the ability to speak and write cor-
rectly. Representative classics of England and America are
studied, along with the history of the literatures of the two
countries. The schedule of English classics for college entrance
requirements is followed throughout the four years. An at-
tempt is constantly made to instill a "feeling for language," and
31
to inculcate some conception of style, and toward the end of
the course interpretative criticism on the part of the students
themselves is striven for.
The four books of the "Literature and Life" series, by
Greenlaw and others, are used throughout the course — one each
year. Besides the classics from "Literature and Life" listed be-
low for intensive study during the four years, all the introduc-
tions to the various chapters in the "Literature and Life" books,
as well as practically all of the stories, essays, poems, etc.,
therein, are carefully read. The chapter introductions to Books
II and IV comprise brief, but comprehensive, histories of Ameri-
can and English Literatures respectively, and are stressed.
Two pieces of written work are required of each student
each week. Oral themes are required also from time to time.
Each student, in addition to his regular class work, must read,
and report on, four books each year. These books are selected
with the approval, or on the recommendation, of the teacher.

Course, Lewis and Hosic : Practical High School Speller, Chew ;

vidual investigation. Collateral reading of not less than five hun-
dred pages is required. Current topics are emphasized in con-
nection with the history courses.

Eastern nations, which is followed by a thorough study of Greece
and Rome, to about 800 A. D., with special reference to tlieir
institutions and permanent contributions to the modern world.

selection, purchase, and care of foods, together with their nutri-
tive value. Menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner are prepared,
paying attention to balanced meals.
Elementary Clothing — Principles and process of sewing. Con-
struction of simple garments. Care of equipment. Use of com-
mercial patterns.
Mathematics
Arithmetic. Arithmetic is completed in the Academic and
Commercial courses. Standard Arithmetic, Milne.
Algebra I. The four fundamental operations are thorouglily
mastered, with special emphasis on inspection methods. The
subject is pursued through factoring, fractions, and simultaneous
equations. The large number of carefully graded written prob-
lems both show the value and interest of algebraic processes and
develop the student's powers of applying principles to practical
problems. Standard Algebra, Milne-Downey.
Algebra H. A month is devoted to a thorough review of
first year work. Intermediate work is completed through quad-
ratics, the progressions, and the binomial theorem, fully preparing
33
the student for advanced work. Standard Algebra, Milne-
Downey.
Plane Geometry. A complete working knowledge of the prin-
ciples and methods of the subject is aimed at, together with a
development of the ability to give clear and accurate expression
to statements and reasons in demonstration. A large amount of
independent exercise of his reasoning powers. Plane Geometry,
Avery.
Solid Geometry. By emphasis on the effects of perspective,
and by the use of models, the student is helped to a comprehen-
sion of figures and relations in three dimensions. The practical
application to mensuration problems are a feature of the course.
Solid Geometry, Durrell and Arnold.
Romance Languages — French
Courses are offered in French which fully prepare for col-
lege entrance. The aim is to give at least the beginnings of a real
insight into the language and literature. As far as possible the
language studied is made the language of the class room. Daily
exercises in grammar, translation and composition are supple-
mented by frequent conversational exercises, the memorizing of
standard poems, and class singing. French table.

Spanish
The growing commercial relations between the United States
and South America and the valuable literature and history found
34
in the Spanish language, make the study of that language more
and more desirable if not a necessity. We are, therefore, oftering
a two years' course in this subject. The aim will be to acquire as
early as possible a ready use of the spoken language, and to meet
the requirements for admission to the colleges, all of which
now allow credit in Spanish for entrance. Spanish table.

Executive Secretarial Course
This course prepares its graduates to take positions as "secre-
taries," not mere stenographers.
Business men, leaders in the arts and sciences, and men and
women of affairs in general, require the services of private secre-
taries; and no other kind of service puts the alert, reliable, and
36
ambitious young woman or young man in intimate touch with
leaders in the various Hues of endeavor as does secretarial work.
Since this work requires a high type of individual and thor-
ough preparation, the compensation and the opportunities for
advancement are much better than for the stenographer.

Music
The highest standard of musical excellence and artistic worth
is maintained in every branch of the musical work at Dickinson.
Special attention is called to the advantages attendant upon pur-
suing a course of study in a regular and fully equipped school
of music. Private and public recitals are held, in which the stu-
dents take part. Instrimiental and vocal ensemble work also has
a definite place in the curriculum.
Full and complete courses are offered in Piano, Voice, Violin,
Ear Training, Appreciation, Harmony, History, and Ensemble.
All certificate and diploma students are required to do a certain
amount of public recital work, and all other students are required
to appear in private or public recitals at the discretion of the
Director. The length of time necessary to complete any one
course depends altogether on the ability and application of the
student.
The Seminary diploma in music is granted to a student who
completes the required work in his special subject, as described
below in the catalog. The candidate must also give a public
40
recital and must have completed our History and Literature
Course or its equivalent. (Note: Any high school graduate
coming to Dickinson for the study of music, upon completion
of the music course, is entitled to the diploma.) Any candidate
having completed the required musical work, but who does not
have the equivalent of a high school diploma, will be granted a
certificate.
The Music Department maintains two Glee Clubs, a Boys'
Glee Club and a Girls' Glee Club. Members for these are care-
fully selected and should be musically inclined. Any Seminary

foundation in the rudiments of music, including signatures,
rhythms, the scales, terminology, special signs and expression
marks, intervals, ear-training and sight-singing.
43

This course is given for the purpose of making the student
familiar with the representative works of the great composers
and of stimulating interest in and cuUivating a taste for the best
in music. It includes a study of music from the standpoint of
the three elements; rhythm, melody and harmony; the develop-
ment of musical expression — instruments of the orchestra, voices,
opera, etc. The department is equipped with an electric ortho-
phonic victrola with an excellent selection of records represent-
ing all of the various forms of musical composition.

semble playing is developed, together with a detailed study of
rhythm, attack, precision, the ability to accompany, sight-reading,
etc. All juniors and seniors in piano, voice and violin are re-

student remains in this class until deemed ready by the teacher to
take the final examination at the end of the year. It may be, there-
fore, that elementary pupils will remain in this first-year work for sev-
eral years. After passing into the second year, the last three years each
cover a period of one school year.

There are opportunities in the school for self-help for only
a very few girls. About forty boys are able to earn part of
their expenses in various ways in the school, and there are many
opportunities for student work in the town.
Loans
A limited number of worthy students, members of the Meth-
odist Episcopal Church, may secure loans from the Student Loan
Fund administered by the Board of Education of that Church.
Christian character, satisfactory scholarship, promise of useful-
ness, financial responsibility, and the recommendation of the
church to which the applicant belongs are essential to a loan.
Each borrower must sign an interest-bearing promissory note.
There are also loan funds in the Philadelphia and Central
Pennsylvania Conferences of the Methodist Episcopal Church for
students from these conferences on practically the same terms
as above.
Detailed information may be secured from the President.
