after to be established by them, and contributions of money or
negotiable securities of every kind in aid of the endowment of
such College; and may confer degrees and give certificates of

stitution and laws of this State or of the United States, subject
however, to the approval of the said two Conferences.
Sec. 2. As soon as convenient after the passage of this
Act, the persons named in the first section thereof shall meet
16 MILLSAPS COLLEGE

They shall also select by lot from the lay and clerical Trus-
tees from each of said Conferences, one-half, who shall be

able effort shall be made to bring a collegiate education within
the reach and ability of the poorer classes of the State.
Sec. 7. That this Act take effect and be in force from and

18 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
The College has Its origin in the general policy of the Meth-
odist Church to maintain institutions under its own control for
higher learning in the Arts and Sciences.
At the annual session of the Mississippi Conference in the
city of Vicksburg, on December 7, in the year 1888, the follow-
ing resolutions were adopted by a large majority of the Con-
ference:
"Resolved, 1. That a College for males under the
auspices and control of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, ought to be established at some central and
accessible point in the State of Mississippi.
"2. That a committee of three laymen and three
preachers be appointed to confer with a like committee
to be appointed by the North Mississippi Conference
to formulate plans and to receive offers of donations
of lands, buildings, or money for that purpose, and re-
port to the next session of this Conference."
In accordance with this action, the President of the Con-
ference, Bishop R. K. Hargrove, appointed the following commit-
tee: Rev. T. L. Mellen, Rev. W. C. Black, Rev. A. F. Watkins,
Major R. W. Millsaps, Col. W. L. Nugent, and Dr. Luther Sexton.
On Decermber 12, 1888, the North Mississippi Conference
met in Starkville, Mississippi, Bishop C. B. Galloway presiding.
The Rev. T. L. Mellen appeared and reported the action taken
by the Mississippi Conference. The following transcript from
the North Mississippi Conference Journal gives the responses
made by that body:
"Resolved, 1. That a College for the education of
boys and young men should be established in the State
of Mississippi under the auspices of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South.
HISTORY 19
"That a committee of three laymen and three
ministers be appointed to confer with a like committee
already appointed by the Mississippi Conference."
The following comimittee was accordingly appointed: Rev.
J. J. Wheat, Rev. S. M. Thames, Rev. T. J. Newell, Hon. G. D.
Shands, Capt. D. L. Sweatman, and Mr. J. B. Streater.
To the action of these Conferences we may trace the direct
origin of the College.
The joint commission constituted by the action summarized
above met in the City of Jackson in January, 1889. The Rev.
Dr. J. J. Wheat was called to the chair. In stating the purpose
of the meeting he made a stirring appeal in behalf of the propo-
sition to establish a Methodist College in Mississippi for the
education of young mien. In response to this earnest appeal
Major R. W. Millsaps, a member of the commission, proposed
to give $50,000 to endow the institution, provided the Methodists
of Mississippi would give a sum equal to this amount for said
purpose. This proposition was enthusiastically approved, and
after a plan of procedure was adopted. Bishop Charles B. Gal-
loway was invited to conduct a campaign in the interest of the
proposed endowment fund.
Under the direction of this distinguished leader, the most
gratifying progress was reported from timie to time. The re-
port submitted to the Conferences by the committee in Decem-
ber, 1899, refers to the movement in the following language:
"The canvass, on account of the numerous necessi-
tated absences of Bishop Galloway from the State,
could not be continuously carried on, but even the par-
tial canvass made, emibracing not more than one-fifth
of our territory, resulted in the most gratifying and
encouraging success. The interest awakened in the
enterprise has extended beyond the limits of our own
Church and is felt by every denomination of Christians,
20 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
and by every section of the State. It is safe to say that
no effort of Methodism has ever kindled such enthus-
iasm in our State or evoked such liberal offerings to
the Lord. The fact has been demonstrated that the
Church is profoundly convinced that the College is an
absolute necessity."
The report continues:
"So high is the appreciation of the value of the pro-
posed institution, that numerous towns in the State
have entered into earnest competition to secure the
location of the College within the limits of their respec-
tive borders, offering fromi $10,000 to $36,000, and from
twenty to eighty acres of land."
In December, 1899, the Rev. A. F. Watkins, a member of
the Mississippi Conference, was appointed a special agent to
cooperate with Bishop Galloway in all matters pertaining to
the endowment of the proposed College. As the work of rais-
ing the sum designated in the original proposition progressed,
and $25,000 had been collected. Major Millsaps in the year 1890
paid $25,000 into the College treasury.
In December, 1892, the Rev. J. W. Chambers was appointed
agent for the College, and on December 30, 1893, he reported
that the full amount had been collected to meet the terms of
Major Millsaps' proposition, and thereupon $25,000 was im-
mediately paid by Major Millsaps to the Executive Committee
and the following resolution was adopted:
"Resolved, That the Executive Committee return our
most heartfelt thanks to Major R. W. Millsaps for his
second gift of $25,000, this day turned over to us. For
his princely liberality and unfaltering interest in the
great enterprise so happily and successfully inaugura-
ted, the Church and State owe him a large debt of
gratitude."
HISTORY 21
The Conferences having provided for a Board of Trustees,
the joint commission dissolved in January, 1890. This Board,
to which was referred the matter of organizing the College,
was composed of the following:
BISHOP CHARLES B. GALLOWAY, President.
REV. J. J. WHEAT, D.D. REV. W. C. BLACK, D.D.
REV. S. M. THAMES REV. T. L. MELLEN
REV. T. J. NEWELL REV. A. F. WATKINS
REV. C. G. ANDREWS, D.D. REV. R. M. STANDIFER
HON. G. D. SHANDS MAJ. R. W. MILLSAPS
CAPT. D. L. SWEATMAN COL. W. L. NUGENT
MR. J. B. STREATER DR. LUTHER SEXTON
MR. JOHN TRICE HON. M. M. EVANS
After the Board organized under the charter the question
of locating the College was considered with great care. The
Board met repeatedly to consider the offers made by different
towns, and finally on May 20, 1891, while in session in Winona,
Mississippi, decided to locate the College in Jackson, the capital
of the State. The citizens of Jackson contributed $21,000 for
grounds and buildings, and to this sum Major Millsaps added
$15,000. Plans for a commodious main building were immediate-
ly procured, grounds were purchased and in a comparatively
short timie buildings were in process of erection.
At a meeting held in Jackson, April 28, 1892, Rev. W. B.
Murrah was elected President, N. A. Patillo was elected Pro-
fessor of Mathematics, W. L. Weber, Professor of English Lan-
guage and Literature, and G. C. Swearingen was elected Pro-
fessor of Latin and Greek and Rev. M. M. Black was chosen
Principal of the Preparatory School.
With this faculty the College began its first session on
September 29, 1892. W. L. Weber was made Secretary of the
Faculty.
In 1893 the Department of Chemistry was created, and A.
M. Muckenfuss was electel to take charge of it.
22 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
In 1894 Rev. M. M. Black resigned as Principal of the Pre-
paratory School, the school was re-organized, and Professor
R. S. Ricketts was elected Headmaster. E. L. Bailey was elect-
ed Assistant Master.
In 1897 the Department of History and Modern Languages
was created, and J. P. Hanner was elected to the position. Work
in these subjects had been offered prior to that time. In 1904
the department was divided, the Departmient of History and
Economics, witli J. E. Walmsley at its head, was established,
and the Department of Modern Languages was created, with
O. H. Moore as its first head.
In 1908 the chair of Assistant Master in Latin and English
was added to the Preparatory School, and S. G. Noble was
elected to that position.
In 1908 the office of Treasurer of the Faculty was created,
and Dr. M. W. Swartz, Professor of Ancient Languages, was
chosen for this place.
In 1911 the office of Vice-President was created, and Dr.
J. M. Sullivan, Professor of Chemistry, Physics and Natural
History, was made Vice-President. At the same time the chair
which Doctor Sullivan had occupied was divided, and Doctor
Sullivan was made Professor of Chemistry and Geology, the
Departmient of Physics and Biology was created, and G. L. Har-
rell was placed in charge of that work.
The unusual facilities for conducting a Law School in Jack-
son led to the establishment, in 1896, of a School of Law. Hon.
Edward Mayes, ex-Chancellor of the University of Mississippi,
and for more than fourteen years a professor of Law in that
institution, took active control of the new School and is still its
head. Associated with him are Hon. A. H. Whitfield, for-
merly Chief- Justice of the Supreme Court, and Hon. Sidney
Smith, Chief-Justice of the Supreme Court of Mississippi.
In 1911 the Preparatory School was formally separated
from the College. It is now a distinct institution with the of-
ficial title of the Millsaps Preparatory School. It has a sepa-
HISTORY 23
rate campus, buildings of its own, a faculty which conducts it
as an independent school, and its facilities and buildings are
described in its own catalogue.
The facilities of the College were enlarged in 1895-
1896 by the generosity of Major Millsaps, who gave Webster
Science Hall, which cost more than $10,000. In 1901 Mr. Dan
A. James, of Yazoo City, built an observatory for the College,
in memory of his father, Mr. Peter James, and of his brother,
Mr. Samuel James, and furnished it with a fine telescope.
Millsaps College can thus offer unusual advantages in Astron-
omy. In 1902, to supply the increasing demand for better dor-
iTuitory and dining hall facilities, Major Millsaps gave the Col-
lege the property formerly known as Jackson College, costing
more than ?30,000. This enabled the College to fill the demands
made on it at that time. In addition to this gift Major Mill-
saps gave fifty acres of land immediately adjoining our campus,
and valued at $50,000. Ample provision is thus made for the
future expansion of the College.
In 1906 the General Education Board offei'ed to donate, from
the funds provided by John D. Rockefeller for Higher Educa-
tion, $25,000, provided an additional sum of $75,000 should be
collected from other sources, for the permanent endo.vment of
the College. Rev. T. W. Lewis, of the North Mississippi Con-
ference was made financial Agent of the College to collect this
sum. In 1910 $32,279.10 had been collected for this purpose.
Mr. I. C. Enochs, a generous citizen of Jackson, gave an ad-
ditional $5,000. Major Millsaps, with characteristic generosity,
contributed the remaining $37,720.90. Thus the endowment of
the College was increased by $100,000.
At the Commencement of 1913 Major Millsaps gave to the
College property on Capitol Street, Jackson, valued at $150,000.
This is the largest single gift to the College.
The dormitory of the Preparatory School was destroyed by
fire in 1913, but it was promptly rebuilt and made more valuable
by alterations which also improved greatly the appearance of
24 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
the structure. A more disastrous fire destroyed the main build-
ing in 1914. But within a few months the old structure had been
replaced by a far more commiodious and imposing administra-
tion building, costing $60,000.
The following statement of the resources of the College,
while not inclusive of all sources of its revenues, will give some
idea of the solidity of its foundation, and also furnishes a guar-
antee of its perpetuity:
Productive endowment, including revenue
producing property $ 300,000
Buildings and grounds 138,000
Value of the Library 12,000
Value of Chemical, Physical and Biological
apparatus 7,500
Furniture and Fixtures 3,500
Unproductive Endowment 173,000
Total $ 623,000
One of the purposes the College keeps consistently in view
is indicated by the following section of the charter:
"The cost of education shall, as far as practicable,
be reduced to the lowest point consistent with the ef-
ficient operation of said College, and every reasonable
effort shall be made to bring collegiate education within
the reach of the poorer classes of the State."
With a productive endowment of over $300,000 and buildings
and grounds worth $250,000, it rests on a foundation which
assures its perpetuity. It has the support of a great religious
denomination, yet it is not sectarian in its policy. It numbers
among its patrons, representatives of all the Christian churches.
HISTORY 25
Since 1912 Millsaps College has been a member of the
Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, a distinction
enjoyed by only one other institution in this State. An im-
partial committee of the Association made exhaustive inquiry
into the financial resources of the institution, its courses, the
training of its instructors, and the character of its work, and
unanimously recommended it for membership. This inquiry
extended over a year, and no conditions whatever were im-
posed for the election of the College, since it had been of the
first rank for some years. Its degrees are recognized by all
institutions of learning as among the best in the land.

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS 31
DEFINITJONS OF THE UNITS.
The following definitions of the units in the requirements
for entrance are designed on the one hand to guide the student
in his preparation for the entrance examinations, and on the
other to govern the high school principal and teacher in organ-
izing the courses of study.
ENGLISH.
The study of English in school has two main objects: (1)
command of correct and clear English, spoken and written; (2)
ability to read with accuracy, intelligence, and appreciation,
English A and B. Grammar and Composition.
The first object requires instruction in Grammar and CompOr
sition. English Grammar should ordinarily be reviewed in the
seconday school; and correct spelling and grammatical accuracy
should be rigorously exacted in connection with all written work
during the four years. The principles of English Composition
governing punctuation, the use of words, sentences, and para-
graphs should be thoroughly mastered; and practice in comipo-
sition, oral as well as written, should extend throughout the
secondary-school period. Written exercises may well comprise
letter writing, narration, desciption, and easy exposition and
argument. It is advisable that subjects for this work be taken
from the students' personal experience, general knowledge, and
studies other than English, as well as from his reading in Litera-
ture. Finally, special instruction in language and composition
should be accompanied by concerted effort of teachers in all
branches to cultivate in the student the habit of using good
English in his recitations and various exercises, whether oral
or written.
English C. Literature.
The second object is sought by means of two lists of books
headed respectively Reading and Study, from which may be
framed a progressive course in Literature covering four years.
32 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
In connection with both lists, the student should be trained in
reading aloud and be encouraged to commit to memory some of
the more notable passages both in verse and in prose. As an
aid to literary appreciation, he is further advised to acquaint
himself with the most iituportant facts in the lives of the authors
whose works he reads and with their place in literary history.
(a) Reading.
The aim of this course is to foster in the student the habit
of intelligent reading and to develop a taste for good literature,
by giving him a first-hand knowledge of some of its best speci-
mens. He should read the books carefully, but his attention
should not be so fixed upon details that he fails to appreciate
the main purpose and charm of what he reads.
With a view to large freedom of choice, the books provided
for reading are arranged in the following groups, fromi each of
which at least two selections are to be made, except as other-
wise provided under Group I.

IV, V, XV, XVI, XVII; the Iliad, with the omission, if de-
sired, of Books XI, XIII, XIV, XV, XVII, XXI; the Aeneid.
The Odyssey, Iliad, and Aeneid should be read in English
translations of recognized literary excellence. For any se-

may be substituted.

The examination will be divided into two parts, one of which
will be on Granumar and Composition, and the other on Litera-
36 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
ture. In Grammar and Composition, the candidate may be asked
specific questions upon tlie practical essentials of these studies,
such as the relation of the various parts of a sentence to one
another, the construction of individual words in a sentence of
reasonable difficulty, and those good usages of modern English
which one should know in distinction from current errors. The
main test in composition will consist in one or more essays,
developing a theme through several paragraphs; the subjects
will be drawn fromi the books read, from the candidate's other
studies, and from his personal knowledge and experience quite
apart from reading. For this purpose the examiner will pro-
vide several subjects, perhaps eight or ten, from which the
candidate may make his own selections. He will not be ex-
pected to write more than four hundred words per hour.
The examination in Literature will include: A. General
questions designed to test such a knowledge and appreciation
of Literature as may be gained by fulfilling the requirements
defined under (a) Reading, above. The candidate will be re-
quired to submdt a list of the books read in preparation for the
examination, certified by the principal of the school in which
he was prepared; but this list will not be made the basis of
detailed questions. B. A test on the books prescribed for study,
which will consist of questions upon their content, form, and
structure, and upon the meaning of such words, phrases, and
allusions as may be necessary to an understanding of the works
and an appreciation of their salient qualities of style. General
questions may also be asked concerning the lives of the authors,
their other works, and the periods of literary history to which
they belong.

ANNOUNCEMENTS.
Millsaps College is named in honor of Major R. W. Millsaps,
whose munificent gifts have made the existence of the institu-
tion possible. The College is the property of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, and was organized by the concurrent
action of the' Mississippi and North Mississippi Conferences. It
is not sectarian, however, but numbers among its patrons mem-
bers of all the Christian denominations.
LOCATION.
Jackson, the capital of the State, and the seat of the College,
is easily accessible by five lines of railway. Thirty passenger
trains arrive and depart daily. The College is located in the
northern part of the city, on a commanding elevation, with per-
fect drainage, and in a beautiful camipus of one hundred or more
acres. A healthier spot it would be difficult to find within the
limits of the State. Jackson is a city of 30,000 Inhabitants,
with handsome churches and public buildings, and is noted for
the refinement and intelligence of its people. Its literary, social
and religious advantages are superior.
The College has an endowment of $473,000, of which $300,-
000 is productive, and several partially endowed scholarships.
The first scholastic session began September 29, 1892, and the
College has had remarkable prosperity from the beginning. The
generous founder. Major Millsaps, by the gift of the Webster
Science Hall, at a cost of $10,000, the Jackson College property
at a cost of more than $30,000, and fifty acres of land immiediate-
ly adjoining our campus, has greatly enlarged our facilities.
THE JAMES OBSERVATORY.
Millsaps College is prepared to offer excellent advantages
in the study of astronomy. The late Mr. Dan A. James, of Yazoo
City, Mississippi, built an observatory for the College in
memory of his father, Mr. Peter James, and of his brother,
Mr. Samuel James. He also furnished the observatory with a
fine telescope. The Observatory building and equipment has
recently been renovated, and is in excellent order. The class
of 1916 donated a fine photographic lens to the observatory,
which adds materially to its equipment.
50 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
CARNEGIE MILLSAPS LIBRARY.
Near the close of the session of 1905-1906, Mr. Andrew Car-
negie offered to give $15,000 for a library building if the trus-
tees would supply an endowment of equal amount. Major Mill-
saps added to his many contributions by giving the full amount
of the endowment. With the income from this endowment and
the complete A. L. A. card catalogue, the College is able to
offer library facilities that are not surpassed in the State. Dur-
ing the present session seventy periodicals were received in the
reading room and eight hundred volumes were added to the
shelves.
In addition to the books thus obtained, the library has been
so fortunate as to secure most of the well selected libraries
of the late Dr. C. K. Marshall, John W. Burruss and Rev. W. G.
Millsaps, the entire library of Colonel W. L. Nugent, besides
many volumes from the libraries of ex-Chancellor Edward Mayes,
Dr. A. F. Watkins and Major R. W. Millsaps. The Martha A.
Turner Fund, founded by Mrs. J. R. Bingham, of Carrollton, Mis-
sissippi, is used for the purchase of books in English literature.
The students also have access to the State Library, which is
unusually complete in many departments.
RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION.
Students will be required to be present at morning worship
in the College Chapel. In this daily service the Faculty and
students come together to hear the reading of the sacred Scrip-
tures and to engage in singing and prayer. Students rmust at-
tend religious worship at least once on the Sabbath in one of
the churches of Jackson.
THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.
One of the most potent factors in the College for developing
the students into a broader life is the Young Men's Christian
Association. Its policy and aim is to develop the three-fold na-
ture of the students — the moral, intellectual and spiritual. It
is a well-known fact that the student who develops himself in-
ANNOUNCEMENTS 51
tellectually, but neglects his moral and spiritual nature, is in
no sense a complete man. Unless one becomes a well rounded
man, he is not fit to fight the battles of life.
Realizing this, the Association was organized shortly after
the College was founded. It has done as much to mold character
and to hold up a high standard of ideals before the students
as any other department in connection with the College. It
has been dominated by the double purpose of leading men to
accept Christ and to form such associations as will guard them
against the temptations of college life. The Association has
done much to strengthen the spiritual life and influence of the
College, to promiote Christian character and fellowship and
progressive Christian work. It trains its members for Christian
service and leads them to devote their lives to the cause of
Christ where they can accomplish the most for the extension
of the Kingdom of God. In order to accomplish this purpose the
Association holds weekly meetings on Friday evenings. These
services are usually conducted by some of the students, but
occasionally by some miember of the Faculty, or by some minis-
ter from town.
Realizing the importance of a young man's choosing his life
work while in college, a series of addresses, on "Life Work,"
has been arranged and prominent men of each profession are
invited to address the Association from time to time on their
respective professions.
An annual revival is held some time in the year, lasting more
than a week, which results in leading many yonug men to Christ
each year. These services last year were conducted by Dr. J.
L. Weber, of Memphis, Tenn., and resulted in renewing enthus-
iasm and in giving great stimulus to Association work.
The Association sends yearly a delegation to the Southern
Students' Conference at Montreat, North Carolina. Since the
ten days of the Convention are assiduously devoted to discussing
Association work and problems, the delegates always return
enthusiastic and zealous for doing Christian service.
52 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
The work of the Association is carried on by the students;
each man has his part to do according to the plan of organiza-
tion. The President, elected by the members, appoints chair-
men of nine committees, each composed of three or more men.
It is the duty of the Publicity Committee to advertise, by means
of blotters and in other ways, all meetings, and secure good
attendance. The Membership Committee meets all new students
as they arrive, and gives them any information desired con-
cerning College, boarding facilities, etc. Afterward this conumit-
tee calls on each student and urges him to become a member
of the Association. The Reception Committee has charge of
College Night, and any other entertainment that the Associa-
tion may choose to give during the year. The object of College
Night is to make the students acquainted with one another and
to interest the new men in the different phases of College life.
The Ennployment Committee assists deserving students in get-
ting employment for their spare time. The City Mission Com-
mittee has charge of work in different parts of the city. The
Devotional Committee provides leaders, and the Music Commit-
tee, whose Chairman is the Treasurer of the Association, col-
lects the annual dues ($1.50) and raises funds sufficient for
mieeting current expenses.
But most important are the Bible Study and Mission Study
Committees. Bible Study groups are formed at the Dormitory
and at the boarding houses. The students engage in daily Bible
reading and meet for one hour each week, for discussion. The
Mission Study Committee arranges courses in biographies of
missionaries in various mdssion fields and secure leaders for
the various classes.
The Y. M. C. A. is back of every phase of College life, and
it is expected that every student shall identify himself with the
organization.
LITERARY SOCIETIES.
Two large halls have been provided for the Literary So-
cieties organized for the purpose of improvemient in debate,
ANNOUNCEMENTS 53
declamation, composition, and acquaintance with the methods
of deliberative bodies. These societies are conducted by the
students under constitutions and by-laws of their own framing.
They are named, respectively, the Galloway and the Lamar
societies, and contribute greatly to the improvement of their
members.
During the session of 1915-16 the young ladies organized a
Literary Society, which is named the Clionian Society.
PUBLIC LECTURES.
With the view of promoting general culture among the
students, and to furnish them with pleasant and profitable en-
tertainment, a lyceum lecture course is conducted by the Col-
lege authorities. There are from three to six numbers. The
best talent available for the money will be engaged each year
and each student upon entering College will be required to pay
along with his other fees $1.00 for a season ticket to these
lectures.
BOARDING FACILITIES.
Students of Millsaps College, as a rule, arrange for their
living in one of three ways:
1. There are eight smiall cottages, in which students can
board themselves at reduced cost. These cottages are admir-
ably situated on the eastern side of the campus, as shown on
the map. The rooms are sufficiently large to accommodate two
students each. The room rental per student in the cottages is
$9.00 for the session and must be paid as follows: $5.00 at the
beginning of the session and $4.00 the 1st of February. The
coal bill a year per student is not miore than $5.00, when two
students live in one room. The boys in these cottages have their
own dining room and their meals last year cost them $9.00 a
month. Lights amount to very little. Students living in the
cottages furnish their rooms. Furniture for one room need not
cost more than $10.00. It will be seen fronn the above that the
54 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
necessary cost to a student living in a cottage need not exceed
312.00 a month. Students wishing to engage a room in one of
the cottages should write Dr. J. M. Sullivan, Treasurer, at the
College.
2. There are "Student Homes," capable of accommodating
a limited number of boarders, and each is in charge of a Chris-
tian family. These homes furnish roomi, light, board and fur-
niture at a cost of $15.00, $16.00, $17.00 and $18.00 a month.
Students furnish their own fuel, which costs about $5.00 a ses-
sion. Students furnish their bedding and linen. The necessary
cost in these homes ranges from $15.00 to $19.00 a month a
student. Students w^ishing to engage board in one of these
homes before coming to Millsaps to enter College should write
the Secretary for names and addresses.
3. Founder's Hall is open to a limited numiber of College
students. Here the expense is only $14.00 per month, including
room, lights, steam heat, board, matron's services ,and hospital
facilities. Last year the cost of board was $11.50 a month.
Students may room in the cottages and take their meals at the
Preparatory School. There are Christian bonnes where students
may get rooms without board. In such cases the student may
get meals at the Preparatory School or at private homes.
MEMORIAL COTTAGES.
The friends of the late Rev. John A. Ellis, of the Mississippi
Conference, and the Rev. J. H. Brooks, of the North Mississippi
Conference, have built two cottages for the accommodation of
students. These Homes are named, respectively, the John A.
Ellis Cottage and the J. H. Brooks Cottage.
ATHLETICS.
Millsaps College is a member of the Southern Inter-colleg-
iate Athletic Association, and takes part in all intercollegiate
games except football. Games and sports of all kinds are under
the special direction of the General Athletic Association, a stu-
dent organization, whose object is to promote this class of phy-
ANNOUNCEMENTS 55
sical exercise. The faculty exercises a general advisory control,
endeavoring to foresee and avert dangerous tendencies or excess
in physical exercises while giving to the student, as far as pos-
sible, entire liberty of mianagement; a strict limit is placed upon
the character of the intercollegiate games and the number
played away from the College.
Our new athletic field is equipped with an excellent diamond,
a perfect one-fourth mile cinder track, a grandstand with seat-
ing capacity of 1,000, a fine set of hurdles and all other fixtures
needed in field sports. The cost of this equipment was about
five thousand dollars, the greater part of which was donated
by Major R. W. Millsaps. The work of tufting, protection and
decoration is going on steadily and will, it is estimated, cost
two thousand dollars more.
MATRICULATION.
The courses of study are composed in three schools,
two of which are academic and one professional. The former
include the College and School of Graduate studies, the
latter the School of Law. The various departments are
under the direction of professors who are responsible for the
systems and methods pursued.
The session begins on the third Wednesday of September
and continues, with recess of about ten days at Christmas, until
the second Tuesday in June. The first two days of the session
are given to registration, and all students, both old and new, are
required during that timie to place their names upon the books
of the College and the rolls of their respective classes. Lecture
courses begin Friday, and absences will be recorded against any
student not present from the opening lecture of each course.
EXAMINATIONS.
The examinations in each class are held in writing. Oral
examinations are held in somie departments, but they are auxil-
iary to the written examinations, which in conjunction with
the class standing as determined by the daily work of the stu-
dent, are the main tests of the student's proficiency.
56 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
REPORTS.
Reports are sent at the close of each quarter to the parent
or guardian of each student. These reports give the number
of unexcused absences fromi lectures, and indicate, as nearly
as practicable, the nature of the progress made by him in his
work at the College.
HONOR SYSTEM.
Not the least of the educational influences of the College
is the honor system. According to this system the student is
not watched by the members of the faculty during examinations,
but is required to pledge his honor that he has neither received
nor given any aid during the period of examination. If a student
is accused of cheating, he is given a full and fair trial by the
Honor Council, which is compoed of seven mien selected by the
students. Experience has shown that under this system not only
has cheating been lessened, but that a spirit of honor and truth
has been fostered which tends to include not only the examina-
tion tests, but all relations between student and professor.
REGULATIONS.
REGISTRATION OF NEW STUDENTS.
Applicants seeking admission to the College for the first
time should present themselves to the Secretary of the College
at his office in the main building at some time during the first
two days of the session. In each instance a certificate of good
niioral character must be presented, signed by the proper of-
ficial of the institution attended during the previous session,
or by some person of known standing. Each candidate who
satisfies these requirements and those for admission by diploma,
certificate or examination, previously stated, will be furnished
with a card containing the courses which he proposes to pursue
during the session. This card must be presented in turn to each
professor concerned, who will, on satisfying himself that the
applicant is prepared to pursue the course in question with
profit, sign the card. The card must then be carried to the
Treasurer, who will, after the College fees have been paid to
him, sign the card. On paymient of these fees the applicant will
turn his card in to the Secretary.
No student shall be admitted into any department of the
College, except upon presentation to the professor of the de-
partment of the Treasurer's receipt for all entrance and tuition
fees. In no case are entrance fees returned.
Tuition fees will be charged by the term and mjust be paid
not later than Thursday of the second week of each term. No
tuition fee will be returned unless a student is disqualified for
work by severe illness for more than a half term.
No student shall be considered by the faculty as an appli-
cant for graduation until he shall have settled with the Treasurer
all his indebtedness to the College.
Students who have already been matriculated as members
of the College will present themselves directly to the members
of the facuty not later than the second day of the session and
conform as regards the registration in their respective classes
and payment of dues, to the requirements stated in the preced-
ing paragraph.
58 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
DELAYED REGISTRATION.
Students are not permitted to delay their registration
through carelessness or for inadequate reasons. Any student,
new or old, who fails to present himself for registration during
the first week of the session will he admitted to registration
only upon the consent of the President.
RESIDENCE, ATTENDANCE and GRADE.
The academic year begins on the morning of the second
Wednesday of September and continues for thirty-eight weeks.
Thanksgiving Day is a holiday, and there is a Christmas recess
beginning on the evening of the twenty-second of December and
continuing about ten days.
Attendance is required of each student throughout the en-
tire session, with the exception of the days above indicated, un-
less he has received permission to be temporarily absent or to
withdraw before its close. Leave of absence is granted by the
faculty or President for sufficient reasons, and must in every
case be obtained in advance. While in residence each student
is required to attend regularly all lectures and other prescribed
exercises and all examinations in the courses which he pursues
(unless excused for cause), and in every way to conform to the
regulations of the College.
Absence from the College is permitted only upon the writ-
ten leave of the President, obtained in every case in advance.
But leaves of absence for purposes of accompanying the athletic
teams, debating teams and all other recognized clubs will not
be granted except to officers and memibers of the organization.
Absence of athletic teams and other student organizations
is provided for by faculty regulations.
Absence from classes is not excused except for prolonged
sickness or like providential cause, and then only by faculty
action.
Absence from examinations will not be excused except for
sickness on day of examdnation, attested by a physician's certif-
icate, or other cause which the faculty by special order may
REGULATIONS 59
approve. An unexcused absence or presentation of an unpledged
paper is counted as a total failure in the examination in which
it occurs. A student whose absence from examdnation is ex-
cused is admitted to the special examination ordered by the
faculty.
Change of classes.
Students cannot change classes or drop classes or take up
new classes except by the consent of the faculty.
The grade of the student in any class, either for a term or
for the session, is determined by the combined class standing
and the result of examination. In case the examination grade
falls below 60 per cent., the class standing is not averaged.
Class standing in any course is determined by the regularity
of attendance of the student upon the lectures (and laboratory
or other similar exercises where included) in the course in ques-
tion and by the faithful peformance of his work as indicated
by the answers when questioned, by written exercises, note-
books, the faithful performance of laboratory (or other similar)
work, etc. Students are regarded by the faculty as under the
law of honor in matters affecting class standing or in examina-
tions. The grade for passing in any course is 70 per cent.
Re-examination.
A student who attains in any course a grade for the term
below 70 per cent., but not below 50 per cent., is admitted by the
faculty to a special examination at a time set by the faculty.
Withdrawals.
Voluntary withdrawals from the College require the written
consent of the faculty or President.
Enforced withdrawal is inflicted by the faculty for habitual
delinquency in class, habitual idleness or any other fault which
prevents the student from fulfilling the purpose for which he
should have come to the college.
60 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
CONDUCT.
The rules of the College require from every student deco-
rous, sober and upright conduct as long as he remains a member
of the College, whether he be within the precincts or not. They
require fromi the student regular and diligent application to his
studies, regular attendance upon chapel and Sunday services
at one of the churches.
Drunkeness, gambling, and dissoluteness are strictly for-
bidden, and any student found guilty of them is punished by
suspension or expulsion.

(Second Term).
II. DEPARTMENT OF ANCIENT LANGUAGES.
PROFESSOR KEY,
Mr. WHITE,
MISS McNEIL.
It is believed that the mastery of these highly inflected
languages will effect the purposes aimed at in education in the
following ways:
(a) Constant drill in the processes of correlation, comparison,
discrimination and classification of the phenomena of
language, required both in the study of inflection and syn-
tax and in translation, affords a most rigorous exercise in
correct scientiflc method and produces habits and reflexes
of accuracy, efficiency and system.
(b) A first-hand acquaintance with the language and modes of
expression of the ancients and with the evolution of literary
forms lays open a field of knowledge that is essential to a
full understanding of modern life and literature.
(c) Intimate contact with the very words which express the
best ideals and aspirations of those great spirits whose
influence has been most abiding and formative in our world
should shape the character to fine and worthy purposes.
LATIN.
Courses A. and B. The college provides, without additional
expense to the student, competent instructors in Caesar
and Cicero for the benefit of those who need to make up
entrance credits in these subjects.
I. Vergil's Aeneid; Livy, selections from Books I, XXI and
XXII. Prose Composition. Thorough drill in grammar.
Exercises in reading and translation at sight. The aim
DEPARTMENT OF ANCIENT LANGUAGES 77
during this year is to gain such mastery of grammar,
vocabulary and the Latin thought order that rapid reading
without slavish dependence on a lexicon may be both pos-
sible and enjoyable. Sight translation will be given on
tests and examinations.
II. Horace, Selected Odes and Epodes; The Elegiac Poets;
Plays of Plautus or Terence. Mackail's Latin Literature.
In this year some appreciation of the text as literature is
expected. The chief meters are studied and the reading
of the text aloud is practiced.
III. Juvenal, Satires; Horace, Satires and Epistles; Pliny's
Letters; Cicero's Letters; Martial's Epigrams. Private
Life of the Romans. The aim of this course is to get at
first hand an understanding of Roman society and organi-
zation of life.
IV. Lucretius, De Rerum Natura; the Sixth Aeneid, Cicero's
Tusculan Disputations and the Dream of Scipio and De
Senectute, with selected reading from the poets that
reflect the common religious and philosophical beliefs of
the Romans.
*V. A course in methods of teaching Caesar, Cicero and
Vergil. Especially designed for teachers and prospective
teachers in high schools. This course is offered as a
Senior elective; as such it may be counted toward the
satisfaction of the requirements for teachers' license.
Courses III and IV will be .offered in alternate years and
either of these may be taken as a Senior elective.
GREEK.
Course A. Thorough mastery of the forms and syntax. Moss'
Greek Reader. One or two books of the Anabasis. This
course which is given under the supervision of the head
of the department may be counted an elective. Or it may
be used to satisfy the entrance units in foreign languages.

PROFESSOR SULLIVAN,
Mr. WHITE,
Mr. HARRISON.
The rooms given up to the study of this subject are modern,
both in size and convenience, and occupy the whole lower floor
of Webster Science Hall. One of the laboratories opens into a
dark room for photography, and into a room specially isolated
and designed to retain delicate apparatus. The general labora-
tory opens conveniently into a small fuming room outside of the
building, so that vapors may not pass from one to another, and
is also connected with the storeroom. Gas, water, experiment
tables, hoods, and pneumatic troughs are to be found in con-
venient places. There is a cellar for gas and electric genera-
tors, and for assay and other furnaces. A large lecture room
on the second floor is soon to be supplied with modern equip-
ment.
DEPARTMENT OP CHEMISTRY 79
The course in this department consists of three years of
Chemistry, one year being required of candidates for all degrees,
while B.S. students are required in addition to take a second
year. The subjects are taught by recitations and lectures and
work which each student must perform in the laboratory. It
■\s intended that the laboratories be kept well equipped with
apparatus necessary to the correct appreciation of the science.
Each student has his own desk and apparatus, and is closely
supervised, so that he may not only gain a true idea of the
substance under inspection, but also cultivate a hand careful
to the smallest detail, and eye observant of the slightest phe-
nonuenon, and habits of neatness, skill, and economy. Each
student will be expected to keep accurate notes.
Entrance credit for at least one unit in Natural Science
is required for admission to this department.
1. (a) Inorganic Chemistry.
This course is designed to give the student a thorough work-
ing knowledge of general chemistry, including a careful
study of fundamental laws of chemistry, the occurrence,
properties and preparations of the common elements and
their ccnaipounds, and a course of chemical calculations.
The year's work will be closed with an introductory study
of organic chemistry. This course is a prescribed Ptudy of
the Sophomore Class for all degrees, and is a prerequisite
to either of the other courses in chemistry.
Lectures and recitations, three hours. (Monday, Wednes-
day and Friday.)
Text-Book — General Chemistry (Henderson and McPherson).
Reference Books — Richter, HoUeman, Smith, Bloxam.

II. (a) Organic Chemistry.
The purpose of this course is to furnish a somewhat com-
prehensive knowledge of organic chemistry, the Instruc-
tion being given chiefly by lectures illustrated by experi-
ments. Some attention is given to physiological chemds-
try. Students will be expected to consult various works
of reference. This course is required of applicants for
the B.S. degree, and is a prescribed study in the Junior
year. This course, in connection with II (b), will appeal
specially to preliminary dental and medical students.

course in Plane Surveying was given. For the year 1916-
17 we offer the following courses which may be taken
either as undergraduate electives or as postgraduate work.
III. Mathematical Analysis.
A second course in the Calculus. The material of this
course is largely drawn from Goursat-Hedrick's Mathe-
matical Analysis.
IV. Analytical Geometry (Advanced).
This course presents the elements of Projective Geometry
considered analytically.
V. Mechanics.
An elementary course in statics and dynamics of a particle
and rigid bodies.

PROFESSOR WITHERS.
MISS MOORE.
MISS WATKINS.
The regular work in French and German begins with the
Freshman year, but for the benefit of those who have been
unable to fulfill the entrance requirements in these subjects
before entering college, a preparatory course (Course A) will
be given in each. These courses, when taken under the super-
vision of the College and when not already used as entrance
units, may be counted as two-hour Junior or Senior electives.
A student miay spend four years in the study of French, but
only three will be offered in German. Four years of modern
languages will be accounted a satisfactory substitute for Greek.
In order to avoid conflicts, students of modern languages
are advised to take French in the Freshman year, and to begin
German in the Sophomore or Junior year.
The text-book lists are subject to change at any time and
without notice.
All classes meet three times a week.
FRENCH.
Course A.
The student will be drilled in the basic principles of French
gramimar and pronunciation, and will have the opportunity, if
he does not possess too little aptitude for languages, of acquir-
ing facility in the translation of the less difficult texts.
Text-Books — Thieme and Effinger, French Grammar; Guer-
ber, Contes et Legendes; Legouve and Labiche, La Cigale
Chez les Fourmis; Verne, Le Tour du Monde en Quatre-
vingts Jours.
Freshman.
With the Freshman class less attention will be given to
grammatical forms, as it will be presumed that a working
acquaintance with these has been obtained during the first-year
course. A study of the French verb will, however, keep the
92 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
student alive to the main features of the syntax and the shades
of meaning peculiar to the construction of the language. Some
regular work in prose composition will be required weekly, to-
gether with original articles in French and dictation exercises
as often as is thought advisable by the professor.
Text-Books — Armstrong, Syntax of the French Verb; Halevy,
L'Abbe Constantin; Merimee, Colomba; Sand, La Mare au
Diable; Dumias, Les Trois Mousquetaires; Musset, Trois
Comedies.
Sophomore.
The object of this course is chiefly to acquire some first-
hand knowledge of the classic literature of the Golden Age in
France, and as many as possible of the literary masterpieces
of the seventeenth century will be read.
Text-Books — Strachey, Landmarks of French Literature;
Corneille, Le Cid and Cinna; Racine, Andromaque and
Iphigenie, Moliere, Les Precieuses (Ridicules) and Les
Femmes Savantes; La Fontaine, Fables; Pascal, Les Pro-
vinciales and Les Pensees; Lanson, Historie de la Littera-
ture Francaise.
Junior.
This course will include miore difficult readings in class and
privately from important authors of the eighteenth and nine-
teenth centuries, with parallel assignments on political and lit-
erary movements of the period. Much stress will be placed on
the enlargement of the student's French vocabulary. A class
in conversation will be organized for the benefit of those who
display a special interest in the language, and who have the
time and the capacity for serious work along this line.
Text-Books — LeSage, Gil Bias; Beaumarchias, Le Barbier de
Seville; Marivaux, Le Jeu de 1' Amour et du Hasard; Vol-
taire, Zadig; Chateaubriand, Atala and Les Aventures du
dernier Abencerage; Hugo, Hernani and Quatre-Vingt-
Trieze; Loti, Pecheur d'Islande; Maupassant, Selections and
DEPARTMENT OF MODERN LANGUAGES 93
Coxites de Guerre; Henning, French Lyrics of the Nine-
teenth Century; Lanson, Histoire de la Litterature Fran-
caise; Wendell, the France of Today.
GERMAN.
The remarks on French will apply in the main to the courses
offered in German. A good command of forms should be se-
cured before the work of the Freshman year is undertaken.
This course will include, however, a review of syntactical prin-
ciples. The Freshman and Sophonnore courses should serve
to widen the literary horizon of the student by helping him to
acquire a fairly intimate acquaintance with the language, litera-
ture, and life of the German people.
Unless the student has had exceptional advantages in the
high school for the study of German, he will find it best to
begin his work in that language with the first-year class.
Course A.
Text-Books — Walter and Krause, Beginners' German; Allen,
German Daily Life; Storm, Immensee.
Freshman.
Text-Books — Berntorff, A Handbook of German Grammar; Pope,
Writing and Speaking German; Gerstaecker, Germelshau-
sen; von Hillern, Hoeher als die Kirche; Riehl, Die Vier-

nalisten; Schiller, Wilhelm Tell; Heine, Die Harzreise;
Goethe, Herrmann und Dorthea; Sudermann, Frau Sorge or

IX. DEPARTMENT OF PHILOSOPHY AND HISTORY.
PROFESSOR LIN.
Philosophy.
The courses in Philosophy are designed to give an intelli-
gent view of the constitution of the miind, and to indicate the
conditions of all valid thought. Only what is fundamental will
be considered, and with that in view courses in Psychology,
Logic, and Ethics are required of all candidates for degrees.
In addition to these a course in the History of Philosophy will
be offered, which will be elective for all students fitted to take
it. In this course a comprehensive view will be given of the
results offered by the most noted thinkers who have attempted
to frame a consistent theory of the material and spiritual world.
♦Course I. Elements of Psychology.
(See Education, Course II). Three hours a week, First
Term. Required of all Juniors.
Course II. Logic.
Three hours a week. Second Term. Required of all Juniors.
Text-Book — Introductory Logic. (Creighton).
Course III. Ethics.
Three hours a week, First Term. Required of all Seniors.
Text-Book — Elements of Ethics (Davis).
Course IV. History of Philosophy.
Two hours a week. Elective for all Seniors.
Text-Book — History of Philosophy (Thilly).
HISTORY.
' PROFESSOR LIN.
In the courses in History two things will be kept in view.
Students will be required to acquaint themselves with the sig-
nificant facts in the development of the nations studied, and
to learn why these facts are considered significant. As far as
*See Education II, 1, page 84.
DEPARTMENT OF PHILOSOPHY AND HISTORY 95
possible, the casual connection between historical events will
be indicated, emphasis being laid on the idea that History is
a record of the continuous development of the human race,
whose growing self-consciousness manifests itself in the pro-
gressive organization of its moral and intellectual ideals into
laws and customs.
In order to undertand each people or nation studied, ac-
count will be taken of its literature, its religious and social in-
stitutions, its economic conditions, and the organization of its
government.
Entrance credit for the two units in History will be re-
quired for entrance to this department. One of these must be
in Ancient History, listed as "History A" in the "Entrance Re-
quirements" printed in this Register.
Course I.
Three hours a week. Required of all A.B. Sophomores
and B.S. Juniors.
In this course the connection between the ancient world
and the middle ages will be traced. Also an attempt will be
made to show the origin or modern ideas in mediaeval times
and to gain a comprehensive view of the beginnings of modern
European states. The supplementary reading is designed to
complete the transition to miodern society.
Text-Book — Introduction to the Middle Ages (Emerton).
Mediaeval Europe (Emerton). Supplementary Reading —
Political History of Modern Europe (Schevill).
Course II.
Two hours a week. Elective for all Juniors.
In this course especial stress will be laid on Modern His-
tory and present-day problems. An attempt will be made to
show how the problems and ideals of modern nations grew out
of their past history, and how they are affected by international
relations. This will be done as a preparation for the study
of the governmental institutions of our own and other countries,
and as the basis of a correct understanding of the questions
now engaging civilized nations.
96 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
Text-Books — Europe Since 1815 (Hazen). As parallel, the His-
torical Development of Modern Europe (Student's Edition),
by Chas. M. Andrews, will be required.

Course IIL Senior elective. Two hours a week.
This Course will be a continuation and expansion of
Course II. It will show how the history of Europe for the past
fifty years has led to the present war. The various aspirations
of the European nations, as indicated both by the course of
events and by the declarations of responsible statesmen, will
be considered.
Text-Book. — The New Map of Europe (Gibbons). As sup-
plementary and illustrative reading free use will be made of
the magazine Current History.

98 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
XI. DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SCIENCES.
♦PROFESSOR
PROFESSOR LIN.
The aim in this department will be rather to da well a
small amount of work than to cover a large field. Courses in
Economics, Political Science, and Sociology will be offered.
While these are elementary in their scope and nature, they will
serve as a sound basis for further study in these subjects, and
will be useful to those who seek to understand and improve our
financial, political, and social life and institutions.
ECONOMICS.
Required of all Juniors. Two hours per week.
This class will be conducted by recitation from a text-book,
by discussion in class, and by reports on assigned readings and
subjects.
Text-Books — Outlines of Economdcs (Ely, Edition of 1916).
Parallel work will be assigned in Principles of Economics
(Seager). Other readings will be required from time to
time. One paper will be required on an assigned subject.
POLITICAL SCIENCE.
Required of all Seniors. Three hours per week.
This course will consist of a comparative study of the gov-
ernments of our own and other countries. The method of con-
ducting the class will include recitations, discussions, and lec-
tures by the instructor.
Text-Books — The State (Woodrow Wilson), Revised Edition;
Volumie I of Burgess's Political Science and Constitutional
Law will be required as parallel.
SOCIOLOGY.
Elective for all courses. Two hours per week.
Only work of the most elementary nature will be attempted
in this subject. The study of assigned portions of the text, by
discussions in class and lectures by the instructor, will con-
stitute the method of conducting this class. Parallel readings
will be assigned from time to time.

THE LAW SCHOOL.
GENERAL INFORMATION.
In the original foundation of Millsaps College it was de-
signed by its promoters to establish, in due season, and when
the success of the Literary Department should be assured, a
Department of Professional Education, embodying a Law and
Theological School.
In the year 1896, the time camie, when, in the judgment of
the trustees, it was possible and proper to establish the Law
Department. Accordingly, they directed that at the beginning
of the next session, the doors of the institution should be opened
for the students of Law, and Professor Edward Mayes was en-
gaged to take the active control and instruction of that class.
Our Law School was not, even then, in any sense an ex-
periment. Before the step was determined on, a respectable
class was already secured for the first session. Doctor Mayes
came to us with fourteen years' experience as law professor
in the State University, and with a reputation for ability and
skill as an instructor which was thoroughly established. He
had already secured the assistance of a number of most ac-
complished lawyers, who promised to deliver occasional lectures,
thus adding greatly to the interest and variety of instruction
offered.
The total attendance during the first year was twenty-eight,
of whom fifteen were classed as Seniors. At the expiration of
the college year fifteen students presented themselvs to the
Hon. H. C. Conn, Chancellor, presiding over the Chancery Court,
for examination for license to practice law in conformity with
the requirements of the Annotated Code of 1892. They were
subjected to a rigid written examination in open court, and
their answers were, as the law directs, forwarded by the Chan-
cellor to the Supreme Judges. Every applicant passed the or-
deal successfully and received his license. We are now closing
THE LAW SCHOOL 101
the nineteenth annual session of our Law School, and no student
has failed in any year to pass the examination and receive his
license. We point with pride to the results. We now have two
hundred and sixty-three graduates.
The nature of the examdnation passed, being held by the
Chancellor in his official character, puts beyond question or
cavil the genuineness of that result. We do not ask our patrons,
or those who contemplate becoming our patrons, to accept any
statement of our own. The finding and the statement are those
of the Judicial Department of the State; and every law graduate
of Millsaps College stands before the world endorsed, not by
the College alone, which is much, but also by the State itself,
speaking through its Chancellors. This is miore than can be
said for any other young lawyer in the State. None others
have such a double approval as a part of their regular course.
The location of the school at Jackson enables the managers
to offer to the students extraordinary advantages in addition to
the institution itself. Here is located the strongest bar in the
State, whose management of their cases in courts and whose
arguments will furnish an invaluable series of object lessons
and an unfailing fountain of instruction to the students. Here
also are located courts of all kinds known in the State, em-
bracing not only the ordinary Municipal and the Circuit and
Chancery Courts, but also the United States Court and the
Supreme Court. Thus, the observant student may follow the
history and course of cases in actual litigation from the lower
tribunal to the highest, and observe in their practical operation
the nice distinction between the State and Federal jurisdiction
and practice. Here also is located the extensive and valuable
State Law Library, unequalled in the State, and privileges of
which each student may enjoy without cost. Here, too, where
the Legislature convenes every second year, the student has an
opportunity, without absenting himiself from his school, to wit-
ness the deliberations of that body and observe the passage of
the laws which, in after life, he may be called upon to study
and apply; thus he acquires a knowledge of the methods and
practice of legislation.
102 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
Applicants for admission to the Junior class must be at
least nineteen years of age; those for admission to the Senior
class must be at least twenty. Students may enter the Junior
class without any preliminary examination, a good English ele-
mientary education being all that is required. Students may
enter the Senior class upon satisfactory examination on the
matter of the Junior course or its equivalent. No student will
be graduated on less than five months of actual attendance in
the school.
Each student will be required to present satisfactory certi-
ficate of good moral character.
Each student will be required to pay a tuition fee upon en-
trance of sixty dollars, for the session's instruction. No rebate
of this fee will be made, because a student may desire to at-
tend for a period less than a full session.
Course of Study.
The full course of study will consist of two years, the
Junior and Senior, each comprising forty weeks, five exercises
per week.
The instruction will consist mainly of daily examination of
the students on lessons assigned in standard textbooks. Formial
written lectures will not be read. The law is too abstruse to be
learned In that way. The professor will accompany the ex-
amination by running comments upon the text, illustrating and
explaining it, and showing how the law as therein stood has
been modified or reversed by recent adjudications and legisla-
tion.
The course will be carefully planned and conducted so as
to meet the requirements of the Mississippi law in respect to
the admission of applicants to practice law, by examination be-
fore the Chancery Court, and will, therefore, emibrace all the
titles prescribed by law for that examination, viz.: (1) The
Law of Real Property; (2) The Law of Personal Property; (3)
The Law of Pleading and Evidence; (4) The Commercial Law;
THE LAW SCHOOL 103
(5) The Criminal Law; (6) Chancery and Chancery Pleadings;
(7) The Statute Law of the State; (8) The Constitution of the
State, and the Constitution of the United States.
The object set for accomplishment by this school ar two:
First to prepare young men for examination for license to
practice law, in such manner as both to ground themi thoroughly
in elementary legal principles and also to prepare them for
examination for license with assurance of success.
Secondly, to equip them for actual practice by higher range
of legal scholarship than what is merely needed for a success-
ful examination for license. Therefore, our course of study
is so arranged as fully to meet both of these ends.
The curriculum of the Junior Class will embrace each of
the eight subjects on which the applicant for license is required
by the Code to be examined. A careful, detailed, and adequate
course is followed, so that any student, even though he shall
never have read any law before coming to us, if he will apply
himself with reasonable fidelity, can go before the Chancellor
at the expiration of his Junior year, with a certainty of success.
The preparation of applicants for license in one year, will be
in short, a specialty of this school.
When the student shall have completed his Junior year, he
will have open to him either one of two courses. He may stand
his examination for license before the Chancellor, or he may
stand his examination before the law professor simiply for ad-
vancement to the Senior class, if he does not care to stand
for license at that time. If he shall be examined before the
Chancellor and pass, he will be admitted to the Senior class,
and of course, without further examination, in case he shall
desire to finish his course with us and take a degree of Bache-
lor of Laws. On the other hand, if he prefer to postpone his
examination for license, he can be examined by the professor
for advancement merely, and stand his test for license at the
hands of the court at the end of the Senior year.
104 MILLSAPS COLLEGE
As stated above, the Senior year is designed to give to the
student a broader and deeper culture than is needed only for
examination for license. It is not, strictly speaking, a post-
graduate course, since it must be taken before graduation, but
it is a post-licentiate course, and the degree conferred at its
conclusion represents that much legal accomplishment in excess
of the learning needed for license to practice.
The Senior class is required to attend the recitations of the
Junior class by way of review, and to be prepared for daily
questioning on the daily lessons of the Junior class.
Moot courts will be conducted under the direction of the
professor in charge, in which the young men will be carefully
instructed and drilled in the practical conduct of cases.

THE LAW SCHOOL 105
MILLSAPS PREPARATORY SCHOOL.
The Preparatory Department of Millsaps College was re-
organized in 1911 into a separate school independent of the Col-
lege in course of study, discipline and general management.
The home of the Millsaps Preparatory School is Founder's Hall,
a large three-story brick building, containing the assembly hall,
class rooms, the dining hall and about fifty dormitory rooms.
The building is steam-heated and equipped with electric lights,
water-works and all modern conveniences.
Discipline.
Regulations suited to the needs of youthful students are
enforced. Gentlemanly conduct is insisted upon. Students are
forbidden to go to town at night, except when absolutely neces-
sary. From 7 to 9:30 at night they are required to assemible
in the study hall and engage in preparation of lessons.
Course of Study.
The course of study is that of the regular four-year high
school. "Thoroughness" is the v/atchword. As far as possible,
individual attention is given to backward and delinquent stu-
dents. When the course is completed the graduate is prepared
to enter any college or university in the country, or to begin
at once the active duties of life.
