General Information
The School
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY oflfers col-
lege preparatory and junior college courses for young
men and women. It provides facilities for both day school
and boarding students offering two years of college and four years
of preparatory work, including courses in music, art, expression,
and business.
Location
It is located at Williamsport, Pennsylvania, "The Queen City
of the West Branch of the Susquehanna River," on the famed Sus-
quehanna Trail, midway between Buffalo, New York, and Washing-
ton, D. C. Williamsport is famed for its picturesque scenery, its
beautiful homes, and the culture and kindness of its people. The
Pennsylvania and the Reading Railroads, with their fast trains, and
the Lakes-to-Sea and the Greyhound Buses put it within two hours'
reach of Harrisburg, four and a half hours of Philadelphia, and six
hours of Pittsburgh.
History
Williamsport Dickinson Seminary was founded in 1848 by a
group of men of Williamsport under the leadership of Rev. Benja-
min 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 patron-
age of the old Baltimore Conference. It was acquired in 1869 and
is still owned by the Preachers' Aid Society of the Central Pennsyl-
vania Conference of the Methodist Church, and is regularly char-
tered 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
9
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 preparatory field and contin-
ued in that field till 1929. After considering both the opportunity
and the need of doing more advanced work, the Board of Directors
at their meeting in October, 1928, voted to continue the college pre-
paratory 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 and preparatory 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 school to be affectionately referred 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
Bald Eagle Range of the Allegheny Mountains, affording a view of
perennial charm. To the north are the Grampian Hills. In fact
Williamsport, "beautiful for location," 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.
Main
The Main Building is an imposing structure of brick and occu-
pies the central part of the campus. In this building are the admin-
istrative oflSces, class rooms, and dormitories. There are hardwood
floors throughout.
10
Bradley Hall
Bradley Hall was erected in 1895 of red brick and is modern
in construction. It furnishes dormitory facilities for members of
the faculty. The library and the dramatic studio are here.
Eveland Hall
The Service Building is also of red pressed brick and is a modem
fireproof building. The basement and the first floor house the heat-
ing plant and the laundry. The second and third floors contain
dormitories and faculty apartments.
The Gymnasium
Williamsport-Dickinson is fortunate in having a splendid new
Gymnasium, dedicated November 8, 1924, which is a popular center
of physical, social, and cultural activities. The building is 110 ft.
by 88 ft. 6 in., beautifully designed and of semi-fireproof construction.
The basement includes a modern swinuning pool 20x60 ft.,
equipped with a sterilization and filtration plant. The pool is con-
structed of tile and is amply lighted, with large sash to the open air
making a sunlit pool at nearly aU hours of the day.
There are also two bowling alleys of latest design and separate
private rooms and showers for both home and visiting teams. Pro-
vision 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.
Athletic Field
BuUt partially on the site of the old athletic field, the new field
runs north and south beginning directly behind the gymnasium and
dining hall and extending to the terrace just off Washington Boule-
11
vard on the north. Ample room is provided for tennis courts, foot-
ball field, and baseball diamond.
New bleachers have been erected which accommodate 1,000
people. They are of steel and concrete foundations on which have
been placed wooden seats. The rear wall is of an attractive brick
construction surmounted with a wrought iron fence. The entire
athletic field is surrounded with the six-foot steel fence. Each
section iron is topped with a steel acorn. Evergreens, rose of Sharon,
and spiraea line the inside of the fence.
The Clarke Memorial
This new chapel and dining hall, which has been made possible
by the bequest of Miss Martha B. Clarke of the Class of 1862 as
a memorial to her brothers and herself, is designed in the Colonial
Style, and is of fireproof construction. With proper attention hav-
ing been given to acoustics, the chapel proper provides facilities
for devotional services, assemblies, dramatics, concerts, and lectures.
It is planned, with the balcony, to seat six hundred.
The dining hall, on the first floor, is arranged with separate
entrances and with coat rooms and wash rooms for girls and boys.
It opens on a terrace overlooking the campus and athletic field.
Effort has been made to produce a comfortable, home-like room.
Either table service or cafeteria service is available.
Modem methods of heating and air-conditioning are used, and
careful attention is given to illumination and to design of lighting
fixtures.
The erection of this building fits into the plan of an attractive
quadrangle, and other improvements extend the open campus to
Washington Boulevard.
Fine Arts
The buildings on the extreme northern portion of the campus on
Washington Boulevard facing the campus, provide a modern home
for the President and a well-equipped Fine Arts Building, for
Music and Art. The new Art Studio takes the full northern sweep
on the second floor of the building. Also on that floor are a number
12
Girls' Dormitory
of private practice studios and conference rooms for members of
the faculty. On the main floor of the building there are three large
studios and several smaller rooms for practice purposes. The in-
terior walls are finished in light buff and the floors in oak. There
is a total of eighteen rooms in the new building which is devoted
entirely to Fine Arts.
Aim
The purpose of WUliamsport-Dickinson is to prepare students for
their life work in a homelike religious atmosphere at a minimum 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 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 afford-
ing 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
Williamsport-Dickinson 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 school as homelike
as possible. Here lasting friendships are formed, and memories are
stored up to which they may, in future years, look back with affec-
tion and pride.
Cultural Influences
Williamsport-Dickinson aims to develop in its students an easy
familiarity with the best social forms and customs. Young men and
women meet in the dining hall, at receptions, and other social func-
13
tions. These contacts together with frequent talks by instmctors do
much to develop poise and social ease. Persons of prominence are
brought to the school for talks and lectures, and excellent talent pro-
vides for recreation and entertainment. Courses of entertainment
are provided by community organizations which bring the best artis-
tic talent to the city. Students whose grades justify it are permitted
and urged to take advantage of these opportunities.
Religious Influences
Williamsport-Dickinson 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.
A systematic study of the Bible is required of students. (Op-
tional with non-Protestants). Regular attendance is required at
the chapel service conducted three times a week. Students attend
the Sunday morning service at one of the churches in the city. On
Sunday evening all attend a Vesper Service held in the school chapel.
There is a weekly Prayer Service in charge of the Christian Associa-
tion, a member of the faculty, or a visiting speaker. There are chap-
ters of Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations
that do active work in promoting the religious life of the school.
The John Wesley Club is composed of students preparing for the
ministry or other forms of religious work. Through regular meet-
ings and deputation teams they gain valuable training and experience
in religious work.
Through the generosity of the late Honorable M. B. Rich, for
eighteen years President of the Board of Directors, a Department of
Religion has been established in the school, and the professor in
charge of this department is also COLLEGE PASTOR and gives a
large portion of his time in promoting a helpful religious atmosphere
in the school and in personal interviews with students on matters of
vital interest to them.
It
Government
It is aimed to develop in each student a sense of loyalty to the
School 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.
Certain phases of the discipline in the dormitory lives of the
students are supervised and regvdated by two student government
organizations, one chosen by the boys and one chosen by the girls.
The officials of these groups are elected at frequent intervals. Thus
the students are presented the opportunity of learning how to be
governed, through accepting temporarily the responsibility of gov-
erning others.
It is understood that students entering Williamsport-Dickinson
do so with the intention of making an honest effort to do satisfactory
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 asso-
ciate 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 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 maintained
at all times.
Faculty
The Faculty is composed of thoroughly trained, carefully selected
Christian men and women. The two ideals they hold before them-
selves are scholarship and character. They live with the students,
16
room on the same halls, eat at the same tables, and strive in every way
to win their confidence and friendship. Williamsport-Dickinson
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.
Athletics and Physical Training (Boys)
The object of this department is to promote the general health
and tiie physical and intellectual efficiency of the students. Per-
sistent eflFort is made to interest everybody in some form of indoor
and outdoor sports. Intramural athletic games between groups of
students not members of varsity teams encourage athletic activities
on the part of all students. The athletic teams are carefully selected
and systematically trained. They are sent into a game to win if they
can, but more emphasis is placed upon playing a fair game than
upon winning. Williamsport-Dickinson is represented each year
in interscholastic contests by football, basketball, baseball, and
tennis teams. An excellent athletic field offers every facility for
football, baseball, tennis, and other outdoor sports. During the
winter months the tennis courts on the campus are flooded provid-
ing an opportunity for skating.
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 be-
come free and more graceful. Gymnasium work largely takes the
form of games in swimming, bowling, basketball, and other floor
work, with attention to those needing special corrective exercises.
Outdoor activities include archery, hockey, tennis, skating, hiking,
and horseback riding.

The Dr. E. J. Gray Memorial Library
The library is playing an increasingly important part in any
educational program today. Recognizing this, Williamsport-Dick-
inson completely reorganized its library with the beginning of its
Junior College program. Commodious, well lighted, and attractive
quarters conveniently located in Bradley Hall were provided. The
equipment is entirely new, including steel shelving, quartered oak
tables and chairs, desks, filing cabinets, etc. The more than six
thousand volumes in the old library were carefully assorted, retain-
ing four thousand volumes, to which new volumes have been added
bringing the total to eleven thousand. New volumes are added
each year. The majority of the new volumes are directly related
to the various departments of the Junior College. A very excellent
list of reference works has been provided and an attractive group
of books for general reading has been added in order to stimulate
the interest of the students in books not directly related to their
special interest.
The library is in charge of a full time professionally trained
librarian and a full time experienced assistant librarian, together
with student help as needed.
The James V. Brown Library is within two squares of the School.
Its large collection of books as well as its courses of lectures and
entertainments is freely open to all students of the college and the
preparatory department.
IT
The Junior College
The Junior College has become one of the most significant devel-
opments in the field of higher education. The high school graduate
usually needs to make new social contacts, to learn to accept respon-
sibility, and to form systematic habits of study and of living. The
Junior College offers these advantages in connection with college
studies so that the student's educational progress is not retarded
while these important habits are being established.
The Junior College offers two types of courses: (1) those
which are called terminal, that is, complete educational units in
particular fields; and (2) those which cover the first two years of a
four-year college for those who desire to complete their degree re-
quirements later. Both types of courses meet the highest college
standards and afford both pleasant and desirable college experience.
The development of the junior college is the result of an increas-
ing demand for an individualized program in higher education, a
program in which emphasis is placed on meeting the cultural and
practical needs of the individual student. Instruction in small
groups is offered in the place of mass education. At Williamsport-
Dickinson the student bridges the gap between high school and col-
lege by easy, natural stages, each young man and woman being given
a chance for self examination and experiment before definitely decid-
ing upon the courses which will lead to his or her chosen profession
or vocation. As the enrollment is purposely kept at relatively low
figures, the faculty is able to become personally acquainted with each
individual. Class groups are therefore small and permit of constant
discussion and participation by each student in class problems.
Experience has shown that many high school graduates are im-
mature when they enter college, and fail to succeed because they are
not able to cope with the freedom and responsibilities suddenly thrust
upon them. The individualized program in practice at Williamsport-
Dickinson seeks to remedy this condition by personalized instruction
and intimate social contacts. The problems of the student become
the very real problems of the instructor who with his personal ac-
quaintance with the pupil can guide his energies in the direction best
18
fitted to his aptitudes and talents. Many noteworthy successes result
from what otherwise would be failure. Too large a percentage of
students who enroll in a four-year college, do not, for various reasons,
remain in college until graduation. It is better for these students to
enter a Junior College and complete the course, receiving a diploma,
than to have the feeling of having dropped from college at a time
when the work was only partially completed. The small size of the
student group is a spur to greater participation in both scholastic
and extracurricular activities developing thereby the qualities of
both character and leadership. Thus the Williamsport-Dickinson
Junior College offers a well rounded and comprehensive program
that not only prepares the student for his profession or vocation but
for life as well.
Accelerated Program
The time allotted for completing two years of college work has
normally been two academic years, each extending from September
until June. Beginning in June, 1942, Williamsport-Dickinson will
also offer many of its curricula in an accelerated manner. Among
the courses so offered will be Arts and Science, General, Engineer-
ing, Pre-Medical, Pre-Dental, Secretarial Science, and Commerce
and Finance. This plan is in accordance with the expressed desire
of the Federal Government that, during the present emergency, stu-
dents may be fitted for useful work at a somewhat earlier age.
A student desiring to take advantage of this accelerated program
will be able to start the freshman year in June. By the end of Au-
gust of the following year the student will be able to complete two full
years of college work and receive the Junior College Diploma. The
student would then be eligible for admission to the junior class of a
standard four-year course, or in case the diploma was in the Secre-
tarial Science or the Commerce and Finance Courses be qualified to
accept a business position.
For those who do not desire to spend their summers in study,
Williamsport-Dickinson will continue to offer its regular program
in the traditional manner. This arrangement permits a student to
complete the first two years of college work by attending school from
September until May two consecutive years.

sary preparation for radio announcing.
Dr. L. S. Rowe, Director of the Pan-American Union, says in

Art
A Junior College Diploma will be awarded to students who sat-
isfactorily complete the Two-Year Course in Art as outlined on page
26.
The aim of the art course is to give the student thorough training
in artistic creation; to guide in developing taste and power of dis-
crimination in general aesthetic appreciation; to give preparation
for entrance into various fields of professional art work; to give
practical training which may be put to immediate or future use in
the business world; and to create a desire for research in the great
art periods of the past. Care is taken not to interfere with indi-
viduality but to develop the student's own latent abilities.
A well-balanced and practical art course is provided by dividing
the time devoted to art subjects as follows: Fifty per cent to draw-
ing, twenty-five per cent to design, and twenty-five per cent to color.
This work is taught through different subjects, which naturally
somewhat overlap.
The work of the year must be left for exhibition during com-
mencement.
First Year
While encouragement is given to the development of individual
aptitudes, the first year's art work for all students is practically
the same. Through the application of the work in Drawing, Design,
52
and Color, the student is enabled to build a foundation suitable for
later specialization.
Second Year
The individual projects in Drawing, Design, and Color given to
the students will be modified to meet the particular needs of each
field of specialization as shown below:
Illustration. Advanced painting in oils and water colors from
landscape and from life. Original illustrations from given subjects
submitted weekly.
Commercial Art. Advanced drawing, color harmony, design in-
volving original studies in space and line arrangement, pencil, ink,
and color renderings. Principles of advertising are studied, also
cover and poster designs, book plates, decorative page arrangements
and study of reproduction processes.
Costume Design. Advanced studies in color harmony, nature
study and its adaptation to design. History of costume — its value
and adaptation, designing of costumes and accessories, block print-
ing, rendering of costumed models in various mediums.
Interior Decoration. Elements of color and design, historic or-
nament, water color rendering, history of period furniture and archi-
tecture, design and rendering of interiors, mechanical drawing.
(Students expecting to study architecture will be given valuable
preparation by this course).
Music
The highest standard of musical excellence and artistic worth is
maintained in every branch of the musical work at Williamsport-
Dickinson. Special attention is called to the advantages attendant
upon pursuing a course of study in a regular and fully equipped
school of music. Private and public recitals are frequently held, in
which the students take part. Instrumental and vocal ensemble
work also has a definite place in the curriculum.
A two-manual electric Everett Orgatron with chimes is main-
tained for organ lessons and practice. The arrangement of the stop
63
tablets, the expression pedal, the grand crescendo pedal, the con-
cavity and radius of the standard 32-note pedal clavier, the angle
of the keyboards, the overhang of the keys and the distance between
the manuals of this instrument is like a pipe organ. The console of
the Orgatron is designed to conform to the specifications set up
and approved by the American Guild of Organists and the Royal
College of Organists (Great Britain).
The entire Music Department, except the orgatron, is housed in
the new Fine Arts Building, opened in 1940.
Full and complete courses are offered in Organ, Piano, Voice, Vio-
lin, Ear Training, Harmony, History and Appreciation of Music,
Theory, 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 Music Faculty. The length of time necessary to
complete any one course depends altogether on the ability and appli-
cation of the student.
All students in the College Music Course must give a graduating
recital in their final year of work.
Two distinct courses are offered in music: (1) the Preparatory
Music Course, which is a four-year course, designed to be conveniently
taken along with the College Preparatory Course, or the General
Academic Course, (see page 65); (2) the College Music Course,
which combines in an excellent manner a detailed music course and a
considerable amount of academic work in the Junior College.
The College Music Course is a two-year course, and is open only
to those students who present the same entrance qualifications as
those who enter the regular Junior College work, namely, a high
school diploma. In addition, it is understood that the student shall
present musical qualifications equivalent to the Preparatory Music
Course as outlined in this catalogue (page 65) with the exception of
the theoretical work. A diploma in College Music is granted to a
student who successfully completes the required work in the College
Music Course as outlined in the catalogue on page 26.
The Music Department maintains a Choral Club, a Double Male
Quartette, a Chapel Choir, an Orchestra, and a String Ensemble. All
Williamsport-Dickinson students are eligible to these organizations.

College Preparatory
Department
Admission
Students may be enrolled in the Preparatory Department at any
time and will be placed in those classes to which their previous aca-
demic record justifies admission.
Courses of Study
The Diploma of the Seminary will be awarded to the student who
completes any one of the following courses: College Preparatory,
General Academic, Piano, Voice, Violin, or Art.
Students completing a course in one of the special departments
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 Prepara-
tory course consists of fifteen and one-half units, three of which must
be in English, and two and one-half of which must be in Mathematics,
American History and Government, one unit of Science, not less than
two units each of two Foreign Languages or four of one Foreign Lan-
guage and one-half unit in Bible must be included in the fifteen and
one-half units.
The General Academic course is not intended necessarily to pre-
pare for college. The minimum requirement for graduation in this
course consists of seventeen units, four of which must be in English,
one in American History and Government, one in Science, one in
Algebra, one in Geometry, and one-half unit in Bible.
67
A student in any course must have to his credit one semester of
Bible, four periods per week. He must also have one year of Physi-
cal Training for each year spent in Williamsport-Dickinson.
A unit represents one year of work, thirty-four weeks, five fifty-
minute periods per week, except in the case of English and First
and Second-year Algebra, in which cases only three-fourths of one
unit is allowed for one year of work.
Wherever elective subjects are listed in any course, it is the aim
of the faculty to schedule a student in the way which wUl best train
him or her for the particular college course or vocation to be pursued.
Emphasis will be laid upon thoroughness of work. The faculty
reserves the right to limit the number of studies which any pupil will
be allowed to carry.
Students who do not intend to pursue one of the regular courses,
with the consent of their parents and the approval of the faculty, may
elect such studies as they desire.
At least two years of any language elected in any course will be
required for graduation.
For more detailed information, see Courses of Instruction.
Certificates, with recommendation for admission to college, will
be granted in any subject only to students who make a grade of at
least 80%.
Our certificates are accepted by all colleges accepting certificates.
A number of colleges are now admitting by certificates only those
who rank in a certain section of their class, usually the first half.

Special Information
Any young person of good moral character may enter Williams-
port-Dickinson at any time of year for a single semester or longer.
Applicants must bring a certificate of work done and recommen-
dations from the schools previously attended, or from former instruc-
tors, or other responsible persons.
Regulations
It is the endeavor of Williamsport-Dickinson to create a homelike
atmosphere of good fellowship in which study and recreation are
pleasantly blended to achieve a maximum amount of progress without
an excess of restrictive disciplinary measures. However, a certain
number of regulations are naturally essential to the smooth running
of an organization the size of Williamsport-Dickinson. The school
regulations, in addition to those which are given here, are published
in the form of a hand book, which will be furnished to each student
upon matriculation. These regulations have evolved from the exper-
iences of many years which have shown that Williamsport-Dickinson
has a group of students of unusually high calibre, the majority of
whom have a definite goal in life. Student government and self dis-
cipline are encouraged by the school authorities as exerting a definite
influence upon the buUding of good character and good citizenship.
Students from a distance are required to live in the building, but
those having near relatives residing in Williamsport are sometimes
granted permission to make their homes with them.
Students will find it much easier to grasp the work and get a good
start for the school year if they plan to arrive on the first day of the
semester and remain until the last day.
Absences from classes at the beginning or end of holiday recesses
count double and will only be excused for very special reasons.
It is suggested to parents that they should not call their children
home during the semester as any absence interferes with good work.
78
As students are responsible to Williamsport-Dickinson en route to
and from school, they are expected to report at the Seminary imme-
diately upon arriving in Williamsport. Williamsport-Dickinson ex-
pects each student to maintain the honor of the school by such con-
duct as becomes a lady or a gentleman.
Students should be sparingly supplied with spending money, in-
asmuch as the tuition and board take care of all ordinary expenses.
If it is so desired, a member of the faculty will act as patron,
paying weekly such allowances as may be designated and supervis-
ing all expenditures.
Students should place money and valuables in the school safe.
The school is not to be held responsible for money or valuables not
placed therein.
No firearms of any kind are allowed in the buildings.
Students in residence at Williamsport-Dickinson are not permit-
ted to maintain automobiles at the school or in the city, except
for special reasons, and on permission from the President or the
Dean, nor are they permitted to hire or leave the city in automobiles
without special permission.
Rooms at Williamsport-Dickinson are thoroughly furnished. A
comfortable bed, pillows, pillow slips, sheets, blankets, and counter-
panes are furnished. The school supplies two double blankets. If
students wish more than this number they should bring them. Every
article of clothing that goes to the laundry should be plainly marked
with the student's full name with THE BEST INDELIBLE INK
THAT CAN BE PURCHASED or with name tapes.
Teachers and students remaining at Williamsport-Dickinson dur-
ing the short vacations will be charged $1.50 for each day or part of a
day. Parents or guardians visiting pupils are the guests of the Semi-
nary for meals for the first twenty-four hours. Other guests may be
entertained if permission is secured from the President. Their stu-
dent hosts are expected to pay the regular rates for their entertain-
ment.

ten days of the dates mentioned unless ample security is furnished.

serious illness or other unavoidable providence, when the price of

the first two weeks or the last three weeks of the year or the term.
No payment or any part of the same will be refunded in the
case of a student who withdraws on account of homesickness or
other unnecessary cause since the school is unnecessarily inconveni-

For extra service, such as meals served in rooms, additional
laundry work, private instruction outside the class room, et cetera, an
