The College Building, The gift of Professor Lane, is an imposing brick and stone structure, five stories and basement in height, and having a frontage of eighty feet on each of two streets. The Three-Year Curriculum Is adopted by this College; attendance upon three Regular Courses-at least one in this instit tion-being obligatory. A matriculation examination, or other evidence of possessing a fair education, will be required on entering. The Regular Course Of Lectures commences on the first Monday in June of each year, and continues until November. It is thus a Summer course, contrary to the general usage. The Intermediate Course Commences on the second Monday in January of each year, and continues nearly four months. It is of great assistance as a preparatory step to the Regular Course, and as offering the fullest opportunities for the prosecution of dissection. Although attendance upon this course is not obligatory, except in the graduating year, it is earnestly recommended that all attend it who can possibly do so. Clinics are given regularly at the City and County Hospital (450 beds) and the Morse Dispensary, where several thousand patients are treated annually. Requirements for Graduation. 1. The candidate musst be of good moral character, and at least twenty-one years of age. 2 Must have attended three Regular Courses of Medical Lectures, one of which must have been delivered in this institution, and two Courses of Clinical Instruction.

FROM the vigorous corporal punishments of former times, the pendulum has swung to the other extreme. Opposition to the rod is the popular fad. Consequently we have no end of weak dawdling and coaxing in the management of children. But why either extreme? The teacher who can always find something for idle hands to do, and can make that something interesting; who can compliment an act well done, can feel sorry rather than abusive over failures, and who can be a companion and a leader, will seldom if ever have occasion to use the rod. For the rod, substitute earnestness and tact rather than moral suasion. The last has become the synonym of weakness. It is, after all, the firm ruling that cultivates respect, courtesy, nobility and sturdiness of character.-W. R. CUMMINGS in the Ohio Educational Monthly, BEFORE the schools make the pupils into business men, they should make them into men.-A. R. CHAPMAN in Indiana School Journal. THE problem for every civilized nation to-day is how the largest amount of intellectual development can be given to the industrial population.-JAMES MACALISTER, PH. D., Philadelphia. THERE is virtue in a method; but a hundred fold more in a lively interest. In teaching Geography to children, one leaf from nature is worth a hundred of the text-book-Popular Educator. COLLEGE PRESIDENT.—The simple truth is that this position demands not only great ability, but ability of such variety as to render eminent success in holding it a cause of much greater wonder than ordinary failure.-CHARLES F. THWING in Educational Review. |
