The 
Royal Military College 
of Canada 


T HERE are few national institutions of more value and in- 
terest to the country than the Royal Military College of 
Canada. Notwithstanding this, its object and the work 
it is accomplishing are not sufficiently understood by the 
general public. i 
The College is a Government Institution, designed primarily 
for the purpose of giving instruction in all branches of military 
science to cadets and officers of the Canadian Militia, In fact, 
it corresponds to Woolwich and Sandhurst, 
The Commandant and military instructors are all officers on 
the active list of the Imperial Army, lent for the purpose, and 
there is in addition a complete staff of professors for the civil sub- 
jects which form such an important part of the College course, 
Medical attendance is also provided, 
Whilst the College is organized on a strictly military basis, 
the cadets receive a practical and scientific training in subjects 
essen tial to a sound modern education, 
The course' includes a thorough grounding in Mathematics, 
Civil Engineering, Surveying, Physics, Chemistry, French and 
English. 
The strict discipline maintained at the College is one of the 
most valuable features of the course, and in addition, the constant 
practice of gymnastics, drill and outdoor exercises of all kinds 
secures health and excellent physical condition, 
Commissions in all branches of the Imperial Service and Cana- 
dian Permanent Force are offered annually. 
The diploma of graduation is consid..,red by the authorities 
conducting the examination for Dominion Land Surveyor to be 
equivalent to a univerc;ity degree, and by the regulations of the 
Law Society of Ontario, it obtains the same exemptions as a 
B.A, degree, 
The length of the course is three years, in three terms of 9l 
months each, 
The total cost of the course, including board, uniform, instruc- 
tional material, and all extras, is about $800. 
The annual competitive examination for admission to the 
College takes place in May of each year, at the headquarters of 
the several military districts, 

 For full particulars regarding this examination and for any 
other information, application should be made to the Secretary 
of the Military Council, Ottawa, Ont,; or to the Commandant, 
Royal Military College, Kingston, Ont, I January. 1912
