LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 29
Departments of Instruction.
The subjects taught in the regular College Courses, embrac-
ing all subjects taught in the modern college may be grouped
under the general heads — Philosophy, Language and Literature,
Mathematics and Science. In providing this course and its
daily prosecution a two-fold purpose is kept in view, viz :
The mental discipline of the student and his introduction to
the main divisions of human knowledge.
Philosophy.
1. Psychology — Senses, Intellect and Will. — The aim of this
course is to give a fair knowledge of descriptive and explanatory
psychology and its present stage of development, its applica-
tions in education, and also a preparation for the other
philosophical discipline of the Junior and Senior years. The
study of the practical application of mental laws to the culti-
vation of the mental powers is an important feature of the work.
Recitations, lectures and discussions. Text-books, Baldwin's
Elements of Psychology ; Halleck's Psychology and Psychic
Culture, and Roark's Psychology in Education, with the
references for library work in the larger psychologies and
psychological periodicals. Required of Juniors, Fall term —
daily recitations.
2. History of Education. ) These courses are plan-
2. Science and Art of Education, j ned especially for those
who desire to prepare themselves for high grade work and
positions in teaching. Lectures will be given by the instructor
with reference to the pedagogical library and the leading
educational periodicals, and papers on special topics will be
prepared by members of the class. Texts used are Compayre's
History of Pedagogy, Quick's Educational Reformers, Painter's
History of Education, Rosenkranz's Philosophy of Education,
White's School Management, Tompkin's Philosophy of
Teaching.
Required of Juniors and open to special students who are
prepared for the course, Winter and Spring terms — (daily)
recitations.
30 LEBANON VA1XEY COLLEGE.
4. Logic, Deductive and Indtictive. — The theory and laws of
thought are studied with constant application in exercises in
the logical treatment of conceptions, the conversion of propo-
sitions, immediate inference, syllogisms, and the detection of
fallacies. Special attention is given to the principles of
inductive reasoning and scientific method. The time allotted
to the subject is sufficient to make the study of practical
advantage as well as a genuine discipline. Text-books,
Hyslop's, Jevons-Hill's, McCosh's, etc. Required of Juniors,
Fall term.
5. The subject of Christian Evidences occupies the Spring
term of the Junior year. The external and the internal proofs are
distinguished and the place of each is defined. The studies of
the previous years are found to prepare the student well for
appreciating the place of prophecy, miracles and the historical
evidences. Theories of inspiration are examined and the
miraculous character of Christ is set forth, together with the
adaptation of the Gospel to the nature and needs of man.
The text-books used are Fisher's Christian Evidences, and
Flint's Theism.
6. Psychology is studied during the Fall term of the Senior
year. With the aid of a text-book a general survey of the
Soul's power of knowing, feeling and willing is made, with
discussions of various theories ; the aim being to cultivate the
power of abstract thought, as well as to introduce the student
to philosophic research and discussion, thereby to acquire a
more complete mastery of the whole science in the rich and
varied growth that it has attained in recent years.
7. Christian Ethics follows in the Winter term, and text-
books and lectures are employed to acquaint the student with
leading systems of ethics and the fundamental principles of
morality. Practical ethics is then very fully treated both
comprehensively and in detail.
8. History of Philosophy concludes the course in the Spring
term. During the first part of the term, a survey of the
philosophy of the Greeks from about 600 B. C. to the fourth
Century A. D. is made by recitations, lectures, the reading of
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 3 1
Plato's Protogoras, Gorgias, Theataetus, and parts of other
dialogues, and reports of readings by the classes in the works
of Zeller, Grote, and others. Attention is also given to the
philosophy of the Romans and to the Patristic and Scholastic
Philosophies. The remainder of term is spent in the study of
Modern Philosophy, with special regard to Descartes, Spinoza,
IyOcke, Berkeley, Hume, Leibnitz, and Kant, and more recent
problems. Text books : Haven's and Weber's Histories of
Philosophy, with frequent references to the histories of
Ueberweg, Krdman, Schwegler, and others.
9. Butler's Analogy. In this study, the aim is by supple-
mental lectures to adapt the study to the times, calling attention
to the later forms of unbelief, in order to place the student in
possession of as complete a defense of the Christian faith as
possible. Elective for Seniors.
10. Archaeology — Elective for Seniors. A course of lectures
on Prehistoric and Historic Archaeology, with Recitations.
11. ^Esthetics — A course of lectures on ^Esthetics, with
Recitations. Elective for Seniors.
Language and Literature,
Greek Language and Literature,

historians, Epic and Lyric poetry, antiquities and Mythology.
One hour a week is devoted to prose composition.
The Sophomores read the Memorabilia, the Phaedo or Apol-
ogy, and Demosthenes on the Crown. Along with the read-
ing there is also a study of Socrates and the Socratic Schools,
with a general survey of Greek philosophy, the writings of
Plato, Greek oratory and the Laws and Law Courts of Athens.
Portions of the Greek Testament are read at stated times dur-
ing the year.
32 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
In the Junior Year, the CEdipus Tyrannus or Antigone of
Sophocles, the Prometheus Bound or Seven against Thebes of
iEschylus and the Clouds of Aristophanes are read, with a
study of Greek tragedy, comedy and theater.
The course also includes the writing of theses upon assigned
themes, requiring original investigation on the part of the stu-
dent, critical reviews of writings and lectures bearing upon the
studies pursued by the several classes.
The Hebrew Language.
Hebrew is an elective throughout the Senior Year, and is
offered for the benefit particularly of students intending to
take a Theological Course. An elementary knowledge of the
grammar of the language is acquired, and several chapters in
Genesis are read and carefully studied.
Latin Language and Literature,
The aim of the course of instruction in Latin is to teach to
read Latin correctly and rapidly; to translate with accuracy
and facility into idiomatic English; to familiarize the student
with the styles and idioms of Latin as illustrated by the authors
of different periods; and to acquaint the student with the lead-
ing facts of Roman life, history, literature and antiquity. Due
importance is attached to Latin as a foundation of literary cul-
ture and as a basis for a more perfect knowledge of the English
language.
During the Freshman Year particular attention is given to
forms and constructions. Written translations and composi-
tion are required. Antiquities will be studied in connection
with Livy and prosody with the Odes of Horace. Some sight
reading is done in Senectute. The Grammar is carefully re-
viewed this year.
In the Sophomore Year the Epistles of Horace, Quintilian's
Institutions of Oratory, Book X, and the Germania and Agri-
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 33
cola of Tacitus are studied. Composition is continued, literary
and historical topics are assigned for treatment, and collateral
reading is required. Special study of the literature of the
silver age.
The Junior Class will read Cicero's De Officiis, one or two
plays of Terence and the Satires of Juvenal. The characteris-
tics of each of these authors are carefully studied. The Roman
drama is made a subject of study. Part of Terence is read at
sight.
Textbooks used: Lord's Livy, Rockwood's De Senectute,
Smith's Odes and Epodes of Horace, Kirkland's Satires and
Epistles of Horace, Frieze's Quintilian, Hopkin's Germania and
Agricola, Crowell's De Officiis, Lindsay's Juvenal, Wilkin's
Primer of Antiquities, Allen & Greenough's Grammar, Har-
per's Latin Dictionary.
German Language and Literature,
The aim is to give the student a thorough knowledge of the
use of the German language. The first year will be devoted
to a study of the grammar and composition, with readings of
Marchen and Erzahlungen and simpler selections from the
German classics, followed by Hillern's Holier als die Kirche or
its equivalent. The second year will include the history of
German literature, and the reading of Schiller's William Tell
and Maria Stuart, and Gee the 's Hermann and Dorothea and
Faust. Classes will meet five times per week.
French Language and Literature,
The purpose of the work in French is to enable the student
to read the language with facility. Special attention will be
given to a study of the grammar. Easy prose selections will
be read first, followed by two or more of the following: Fen-
elon, Telemaque; Halevy, L/Abbe Constantin; Souvestre, Un
Philosophe sous les Toits; Erckman-Chatrian, lye Conscrit;
Napoleon (Fortier); L,amartine, Jeanne d'Arc; Verne, L/Ex-
pedition de la Jeune-Hardie. Classes will meet five times per
week.
34 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
English Language and Literature.
For the benefit of those who wish a better foundation for
English work, one term is devoted to a rapid but thorough
study of English Grammar. Two terms are given to the study
of Elementary Rhetoric, chiefly in its relation to composition.
A practical text-book is used, and daily exercises, intended to
develop the student's accuracy and ease of expression, are re-
quired to be written, and are corrected by the teacher or before
the class.
During the Winter Term of the Junior Year, Hill's Science
of Rhetoric is carefully studied.
Beginning with the Junior Preparatory Year, the study of
English Literature will be continued throughout the course.
Until the end of the Sophomore Year the work will consist of
a study of English classics, much of the reading being done in
the class-room, the chief aim being to develop in the students
a taste for the works of our best authors. Classes will meet
twice per week.
Throughout the Junior and Senior Years classes will meet
daily. The history of the English language will be studied,
and the development of literature in England and America.
Considerable time will be spent in the critical study of prose
classics, special attention being given to the English novel.
One term of the Senior Year will be devoted to a study of
Shakespeare. Anglo-Saxon will be studied during one term,
that the student may acquire an elementary knowledge of our
language in its oldest form.
Department of Mathematics,
Mathematics and Astronomy,
In the study of mathematics the discipline of the logical
faculties is constantly sought, the aim being that every prin-
ciple shall receive careful demonstration, and as far as possible
be practically applied so that students may acquire such a
knowledge of mathematical principles as will give them power
to solve practical problems and make original investigations.
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 35
The required course extends through the Freshman and
Sophomore Years, — the Freshmen studying Solid Geometry,
Advanced Algebra, and Plane Trigonometry; the Sophomores,
Surveying, Spherical Trigonometry and Analytical Geometry.
In the Junior Year an elective course in Differential and
Integral Calculus and one in Elementary Differential Equa-
tions are offered to those who wish to do more than the work
of the required course.
Plane Surveying follows Plane Trigonometry in the Fall
Term of the Sophomore Year. The department is supplied
with a complete set of instruments for this purpose, a first-class
transit, leveling-rod, etc. , and field work is required to enable
the student to learn the use of these.
General Astronomy is studied during the Fall Term of the
Senior Year (elective).
Natural Science.
The aim of this department is to give the student a general
knowledge of Physical Geography, Physiology and Elementary
Physics, and to familiarize him with the proper methods of
investigation as a preparation for advanced work and original
research, through experiment, observation and inference.
Botany. — A standard text-book is used as a guide to study
the plant, its parts and their functions. A written record is
required of the complete analysis of 60 to 75 plants that are
mounted by the student in his herbarium.
Zoology. — The scope of the instruction includes the general
principles of Zoology. Special attention is given to classifica-
tion, distribution, heredity, evolution. In the course of anat-
omy and histology an opportunity is offered to study the tis-
sues by microscopic sections.
Biology. — This course covers the entire year and must be
entered in the Fall Term. It includes the detailed study of
typical forms of life.
Physics. — The student is directed to become familiar with
the laws of Mechanics and Physics, by instruction, personal
experiments and repeated written tests.
36 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
Chemistry. — The course in Chemistry requires two recita-
tion periods and five hours' laboratory practice a week during
the Fall Term of the Senior Year for all students. In the
Scientific Course the work extends throughout entire Senior
Year and includes Analytical Chemistry. At least 150 experi-
ments must be made in Fall Term work and a record made in
permanent notes. A fee of five dollars is charged for use of
chemicals and apparatus, and all breakage must be paid before
grade can be given. Working table space is assigned as soon
as fee is paid; this will be strictly adhered to.
Geology. — This subject includes the study of the forces pro-
ducing geological changes, carefully reviewing structural and
historical geology. The student is required to determine from
60 to 75 minerals in the laboratory under the observation of
the instructor.
Laboratories and Apparatus.
Arrangements are being made to enlarge the working facili-
ties so as to accommodate from 35 to 40 students at the work-
ing tables.
The collection of apparatus for lecture demonstrations and
experiments by the student, has additions made thereto
throughout each year.
Historical and Political Science,
In the Preparatory Department, one term is spent on each
of the following subjects, in the order given: United States
History, Bible History, General History, Roman History,

studied during the four years. One recitation each week
throughout the year is required of every student. The course
is as follows:
Freshman Class. — The New\ Testament History, as set forth
in the Gospels and the Acts. The Life of Christ is studied
carefully by periods, and the order and connection of events
are closely observed. The development of His ministry is
marked, and the crises and climaxes discovered. Works of ref-
erence are used freely to bring the student to realize the situa-
tion, ecclesiastically, politically and socially. The Apostolic
Age is taken up for the same kind of study. The student
comes into direct contact with the Scriptures. One year, one
hour per week.
38 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.

Practical drill in voice building, declamation, and kindred
matters, will be required of the Freshman Class one hour each
week. In the Sophomore Year, lectures on the general subject
of Oratory and Orators will constitute a main feature of the in-
struction, while from the Junior and Senior Classes extensive
original work in the making of orations, with public delivery
of the same, will be required.
Rhetorical Exercises,
To afford sufficient opportunities for exercise in composition
and public speaking, a system of Rhetorical Exercises has been
put in operation. Advanced classes in the College are required
to take part in public exercises twice a year.
Drawing and Painting,
The practice of drawing, painting and carving teaches stu-
dents to be more observing of their surroundings, discriminat-
ing in regard to good form, color and design. Thorough in-
struction is provided by the department in drawing and paint-
ing, aiming at a development of the aesthetic faculties and of
the power of expression. The charge for one lesson a week,
three hours, is fifty cents.
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 39
General Information,
Lebanon Valley College,
The vigorous growth of the Church of ' ' The United Brethren
in Christ ' ' throughout Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia,
and her desire to keep abreast of the times in the moral and
intellectual culture of her sons and daughters, made Lebanon
Valley College a necessity. Accordingly in 1866 this Institu-
tion was founded, and in 1867 chartered by a special act of the
Legislature of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Vhe Xocation. Annville > located in the heart of
the beautiful Lebanon Valley, was
chosen on account of its accessibility, healthfulness and
inspiring scenery, and because of the liberality of public-
spirited citizens. It is accessible from all points, being located
on the direct route of railroad travel from Harrisburg, via
Reading, to Philadelphia or New York. Trains stopping at
Annville leave Harrisburg and Reading each eight times a day,
Sunday excepted. There is a trolley line between Annville
and Lebanon.
Tj/ie ^Purpose. Itistne P ur P oseof Lebanon Valley
' * College to give such liberal culture
as will qualify young men and women to be practical and
self-reliant as well as learned. The purpose of the founders,
as set forth in the charter, was to plant an institution which
would become so ample in facilities and manifold in depart-
ments as to furnish instruction in all the subjects of a general
and special education. Towards this original purpose the
institution is rapidly advancing.
The advantages of a thorough education are offered alike to
young men and women, under the safe and inspiring influence
of the Christian religion. The College is denominational in

management, but positively free from sectarian bias. The
Trustees are elected by the five eastern annual conferences of
the Church, one-third being elected annually for a term of
three years. The members of the Faculty sustain an ex-
officio relation.
Sbuildinas and Srounds. . The ^in gs , three
•^ m number, are situated
on a fine campus of about ten acres, within easy access of the
railroad station, postoffice, churches, and the usual business
houses.
The main building is a large brick structure, containing
Chapel, Recitation Rooms, Society Halls, Reading Room,
Library and Gymnasium, besides a number of dormitories for
students. These rooms are arranged for two students each,
are well ventilated and provided with wardrobes. The build-
ing is heated throughout by steam.
A second building contains the Art Room, Music Rooms,
and the entire department of Natural Science with Laboratory
and Museum.
The Ladies' Hall is entirely separate from the other prem-
ises, and is under the immediate care of the Preceptress.
Young ladies from abroad are furnished a comfortable and
pleasant home, where they have every advantage for study and
general improvement. Non-resident students board in the
Institution, where they are under the continual care of the
President and other members of the Faculty.

ough education. The Institution being founded in the inter-
est of Christ and Christian Scholarship, assumes for its work
the joint culture, by all proper means, of both intellect and

heart. More than 90 per cent, of the students are communi-
cant members of the Church, and a Christian spirit underlies
and animates the instruction in the different departments.
But beyond this, special provision is made for more direct and
positive Christian influence.
1. A regular service, consisting of the reading of Scriptures,
singing and prayer, is held in the College Chapel every school
morning. All students are required to be present.
2. Weekly prayermeetings are conducted by the students in
the College.
3. There are flourishing organizations of the Young Wo-
men's and Young Men's Christian Associations in the Col-
lege, which hold their meetings on Saturday evening of each
week. These are great auxiliaries to the religious life of the
College.
4. All resident students of the College are required to attend
public worship on the Sabbath in the United Brethren Church,
except those who, on account of church membership or wish
of parent or guardian, may prefer to attend church elsewhere.
5. A Bible Normal Class for the instruction of Sunday-
school teachers is conducted semi-weekly. The course of in-
struction extends over one year, and is the one provided for
and used by the Bible Normal Union. A diploma, issued by
the Sunday-school Board of the United Brethren Church, is
granted to students who complete the course.
6. Regular recitations are heard during the year in Bible
History, in the Greek of the New Testament, and in the Eng-
lish Bible.
Jtealth and Physical Culture. N ^ to
•* moral and re-
ligious character, the first of all things to be secured and cared
for in the training of the young, is sound physical health.
Accordingly, wise and liberal provision is made to preserve and
promote it by daily exercise in the open air, and by a carefully
guarded course of gymnastic training. Class instruction in
42 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
light gymnastics is offered at moderate cost, under the direction
of the director of physical culture.
Xiterary Soc/et/es. vt n7LCeUent opportunity for
** literary improvement and par-
liamentary training is afforded by the societies of the College.
There are three of these societies — one sustained by the young
ladies, the Clionian; and two by the young men, the Kaloze-
tean and the Philokosmian. Each society has a well-furnished
hall and its own library. These societies are considered valu-
able agencies in College work, and students are advised to
unite with one of them.
Xihraries and Cabinet. ^ 5°"T T f7Z'
to which all the students
have daily access, contains five thousand volumes. The Libra-
ries of the Literary Societies also contain about two thousand
volumes of well-selected and standard books. The Libraries
are constantly increasing by donations from friends and from
the proceeds of a constantly accruing fund.
The Cabinet contains a collection of specimens in Mineralogy,
Geology, Zoology and Natural History.
WaMculation. Matriculation is regarded as a
' pledge on the part of the student to
obey all the rules of the College, and is admitted only on that
condition.
A fee of one dollar each year is required of every one who
enters the College, on the payment of which a certificate will
be given, entitling the holder to the privileges of the Library.
*7)/vr* /n/tttm ^ * s earnes tly desired that students may
' ' ' be influenced to good conduct and dili-
gence by higher motives than fear of punishment. The sense
of duty and honor, the courtesy and generous feelings natural
to young men and women engaged in literary pursuits, are
appealed to as the best regulators of conduct. It is the policy
of the administration to allow in all things as much liberty as
will not be abused, and the students are invited and expected
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 43
to co-operate with the Faculty; but good order and discipline
will be strictly maintained, and misconduct punished by ade-
quate penalties. The Laws of the College, enacted by the
Board of Trustees, are as few and simple as the proper regula-
tion of a community of young men and women will permit.
These are printed, and a copy is placed in the hands of every
student at the beginning of each year. These L,aws must be
observed, not only in their letter, but in their spirit. The Col-
lege will not place its stamp or bestow its honors upon any one
who is not willing to deport himself becomingly. Every un-
excused absence from any College duty, failure or misdemeanor
of a student, is reported to the Faculty, and a record made of
the same.
The first three demerit marks will subject the student to
private reproof; the first six to reproof before the Faculty; the
first nine to reproof in public, with notice to parent or guard-
ian; and the first twelve to dismissal from College.
The Faculty may, on evidence of reformation, restore a dis-
missed student.
Sradina and Gxamination. Students ^
** graded on their
work in the Recitation Room. One hundred per centum is the
standard in perfection of scholarship. Written examinations
of classes are held at the close of each term. These examina-
tions are reckoned as equivalent to one-half of the recitation
work of the term, or one-third of final grade, in estimating the
student's standing. No student who omits attendance upon
an examination in any study will receive a grade in the stud)^,
or be regarded as having finished it, until the examination is
passed. A grade of less than 70 per centum will compel the
student to submit to a second examination after further prepa-
ration, or will repeat the study with the next lower class. All
students, however, whose daily average in any study is go or
more, are exempt from examination. Applicants for special
examinations will be charged an appropriate fee.
The final examinations of the Seniors are held two weeks
44 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
before Commencement, from which time they are subject to
such duties only as are required for their preparation for grad-
uation.
At the end of each term, the class-standing of each student
in all studies will be reported to the parent or guardian, who
is earnestly recommended to give these reports careful atten-
tion and promptly to notify the President of any failure to
receive them.
^Promotion. At the be s innin g of each term > the old
classes are re-organized and new ones
formed. At or near the close of each academic year, the names
of all the members of each class, separately come before the
Faculty for promotion, and those of the Senior Class for grad-
uation, and no student is promoted to a higher class, or to
graduation, except upon the unanimous vote of the Faculty.
No student will be advanced to regular standing in the next
class until all conditions are made up.
P~~„* *f !^c/,« rt « No student may leave the
Jueave or Jfiosence* _ „ - "
College without the personal
permission of the President, or, in his absence, of the Senior
Professor. Because of the hurtful influence, the absence of a
student for even a day, exerts on his progress, nothing but
sickness or unavoidable accident is sufficient to excuse him
from regular attendance at recitations. .
Any student withdrawing from the Institution during term-
time, without giving due notice and having permission so to
do, will be marked upon the records as having irregularly
withdrawn.
Any student prevented from attending Class, must present to
the President and the Professor in charge of said work a satis-
factory excuse for being absent.
P~~j.*.~~ /°^-.,».„~ A course of popular lectures will
be delivered during the year by
some of the most noted lecturers in the field.
Lectures and entertainments were given by the following
during the past year: The Imperial Quartette, of Boston; the
LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE. 45
Rev. J. R. Reitzel, of Chicago; the Ransom Entertainers, of
New York City; S. M. Spedon, of New York City; and the
Rev. J. J. I^ewis, of Chicago.
In addition to these, there were lectures by members of the
Faculty.
VermS and Vacations. See Calendar, page 2.
'Decrees and 'Diplomas. , TI ?\ d ? ree of Bache-
•* ' lor of Arts is conferred,
by a vote of the Board of Trustees on recommendation of the
Faculty, upon students who have satisfactorily completed the
Classical Course.
The degree of Bachelor of Science is in like manner confer-
red upon students who satisfactorily complete the L,atin Scien-
tific or the Greek Scientific Course.
The College bills and Society dues of candidates must be paid
or secured to the satisfaction of the President, by Saturday
before Commencement. The graduation fee, and the fee for
subsequent degrees, is five dollars.
Sraduate Work. In order to encoura s e the ^
tematic prosecution of studies after
graduation, graduate work for both resident and non-resident
alumni of Lebanon Valley College, as well as for alumni of
other colleges, is provided.
The courses of study have been arranged with reference to
the needs of those who purpose passing to an advanced degree,
but they may also be pursued by those who desire only the
culture or knowledge, without academic honors.
One year of resident, or two years of non-resident study,
will, under favorable' circumstances, qualify candidates for ex-
amination for the degree of Master of Arts or Master of Science,
and all who pass satisfactorily such examination and present a
thesis upon a topic approved by the Faculty, will be recom-
mended for the degree. This provision for the second degree
in no way invalidates the present privilege of attaining the
degree in course by all graduates of three years' standing who
46 LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE.
have completed a standard course of professional study and
present a satisfactory thesis upon a topic approved by the Fac-
ulty. No longer will the Master's degree nor the degree of
Doctor of Philosophy be conferred honorary. It is designed
that these degrees shall represent real and solid attainments in
scholarship. In all cases a thesis (not to exceed 2,500 words,
typewritten, ) must be submitted at least one month before close
of College year. Accepted theses become the property of the
College.
Graduates who have received the Master's degree, in either
of the ways above stated, may be admitted to courses of study
as candidates for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, upon the
recommendation of the respective Professors and favorable
action by the Faculty.
Application for information respecting Graduate Work must
be made, in writing, to the President of the College.

Tuition and room rent are counted from the time of entering to the
end of the term, and tuition from the first of the term for entrance
second or third week.
We urge a comparison of these charges with those of other schools,
believing that such a comparison will establish the fact that our rates are
more moderate for the advantages afforded than can be found elsewhere.
Terms of Payment,
All fees for diplomas and degrees must be paid thirty days before
Commencement.
One-half of all other bills in advance. Balance at the middle of the

The courses of instruction in the Music Department, which
are fully outlined on the following pages, have been arranged
with a view to thoroughness and pleasurable progress, whereby
the student is carried forward more rapidly than in many
other educational institutions, and to a surer exercise of his
own best powers. The most striking illustration of the success
of this Department is found in the increase of the number of
students from year to year. For all those intending profes-
sional careers special courses are arranged supplementary to
those taken by less advanced pupils.
Pupils may devote their entire time to music or take it in
connection with other studies. Public recitals are given by
the music pupils every month. Pupils will take practice
in ensemble playing. Students may enter at any time, but it
is very desirable that they should begin with the term on
account of grading, time of lessons, etc.

Course in Voice Culture.
To render the teaching in this Department as uniform as possible the
method founded on Garcia, Behnke and Lamperti is adopted. It is also
strongly advised that Voice pupils take a course in instrumental music
to enable them to play accompaniments, etc. The course in voice
culture is divided into three grades, and as the time necessary for attain-
ing the requisite proficiency depends entirely upon the previous
acquirements of the pupil and upon his talent and health promotion from
one grade to the next will be made only after a satisfactory examination.

Appeal
The encouraging record for the current year given in the
preceding pages, indicates that the work and present facilities
are appreciated. But increased endowments are necessary to
enable the Church to accomplish through this instrumentality
the great work undertaken, which is now more urgent than
ever. Properly to represent the ideal of our Church in educa-
tion, the new work and impetus secured this year must be
maintained and further progress and development provided for
each succeeding year. Some methods of aiding the progress
of the College are here suggested:
i . Funds for the purchase of additional apparatus for Chem-
istry, Physics, Biology, Experimental Psychology and Astron-
omy, and for the enlargement of Library and Museum are most
earnestly solicited.
2. The Erection of Buildings. A new Science Building and
a new Gymnasium Building are very greatly needed.
3. The establishment of Professorships — $20,000 each — the
income of which may permanently sustain Professors. A chair
of instruction may bear a name assigned by the donor and thus
become a useful and lasting memorial.
4. A larger general endowment fund for the benefit of the
College, and special endowments of scholarships for the benefit
of those unable to educate themselves.
5. Good, earnest young men and women as students. All
are welcome, and will here find a home, church and school, to
aid them in their preparation for life's work.
6. Moral support and the sympathy and prayers of all friends
of the cause, and the forbearance of others.
Form of Bequest.
Item: I hereby give and devise to Lebanon Valley College,
Annville, Pa. , the sum of dollars.
Those desiring Catalogues or information, will please address,
with letter postage stamp enclosed,
