On September 21, 1844, a committee was appointed in the Ohio Conference of the A. M. E. Church to select a site for a seminary of learning. One hundred and seventy-two acres, twelve miles west of Columbus, were purchased, and Union Seminary was projected. On Sept. 28, 1853, the Cincinnati Conference of the M. E. Church selected a committee which recommended "the establishment of a literary institution of high order for the education of colored peo¬ ple generally"; and in May, 1856, "Tawawa Springs", a beautiful Summer resort m Greene Co., Ohio, was purchased, and Wilberforce University had location. By concurrent action, the M. E. and the A. M. E. Conferences of Ohio entered into co-operation for the suc¬ cess of the University. It was incorporated Aug. 30, 1856, and a board of twenty-four trustees selected, including Gov. Salmon P. Chase, President R. S. Rust, Ashland Keith, of the colored Baptist denomination, and Bishop D. A. Payne ; and the broad principle adopted that there shall never be any distinction among the trus¬ tees, faculty, or students, on account of race or color. The University began its work in Oct., 1856, under Rev. M. P. Gaddis, as Principal. He was succeeded by Prof. James K. Parker, and he, by Dr. Richard S. Rust, the first President. During the first epoch, which terminated with the Civil War, the number of students, largely the children of southern planters, varied from seventy to a hundred. Revivals were experienced, and commendable progress made in literary culture. The War closed the school, and the M. E. Church withdrew from the field. On March 10,1863,Bishop D. A. Payne purchased the property for $10,000, and associated with himself Rev. James A. Shorter and Prof. John G. Mitchell, in the re-organization of the University, Bishop Payne becoming President. The Union Seminary property was sold, and proceeds, faculty, and pupils merged into the larger enterprise. On the day that Lincoln was assassinated, the main building was burned, and the growing work checked. But the heroic founder and his associates redoubled their efforts. Congress in 1870 appropriated $25,000; Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase bequeathed $10,000; the Chas. Avery estate added $10,000 and the American Unitarian Association gave for lectures $G 000 WIEBERFORCE UNIVERSITY During this administration, $92,875 was the aggregate of receipts from all sources, including loans, funds returned to the treasury, etc. and the registration of students reached 1553, an average of 113. For thirteeii years Bishop Payne presided over the affairs of the University. He called to his aid such instructors as Dr. Wni. Kent, of England; Prof. T. E. Suliot, of Edinburg, Scotland; Dr. John G. Mitchell, of Oberlin; Prof. W. B. Adams, of Amherst; Prof. B. K- Sampson, of Oberlin, and Prof J. P. Shorter, of Wilberforce, Ohio. Among the ladies who rendered valuable service, were Miss Esther T. Maltby and Miss Sarah Jane Woodson, of Oberlin, Mrs. Alice M. Adams, of Holyoke, and Miss Mary McBride, of Oswego. From under Bishop Payne's hands went out 26 graduates. Pres¬ ident Payne left his impress on every line of development. He or¬ ganized the Church of the Holy Trinity, the Society of Inquiry on Missions, and the Women's College Aid Society, and secured a Ward museum worth $2,000. liev. B. F. Lee succeeded to the presidency in 1876. In 1877, Prof. W. S. Scarborough, a graduate of Oberlin College, was appoint¬ ed to tiie chair of Latin and Greek, and Mrs. S. C. Bierce, (now Scar¬ borough) of the Oswego Normal School, was called to the principal- ship of the Normal Department, which was rapidly developed under her management. She was also instructor of Natural Sciences, and instituted the movement which resulted in obtaining the present Mu¬ seum, for which Bishop Payne secured the funds. Through the Mis¬ sionary Department of the church, the island of Hayti was brought into close relations, and five of her sons entered upon various cours¬ es of study. President Lee continued at the head of affairs eight years, reg¬ istering 1,179 students, an average of 147, and graduating 41. There was entered as receipts during the period, $79,202.80. The University reached its highest enrollment, for the first twen¬ ty yeais, in 1879-80, of 171 students. All through these years, reviv¬ als occurred with the return of every session, and hundreds of young men and young women learned life's noblest lesson of consecrated purpose to the cause ol' God and mankind. In 1884, President Lee accepted the editorial chair of the "Chris¬ tian Recorder," Philadelphia, Pa. Prof. S. T. Mitchell, of the class of '73, was elected to the presi¬ dency in 1884. The University continued a steady growth through 12 ANNUAL CATALOGUE the subsequent years. During the incumbency of Pres. Mitchell, 2,924 students registered, an aver age of 209. The year 1896 showed the highest enrollment, 334. 249 students graduated from literary and 210 from industrial courses. Nine completed the military course, and at e officially entered in the United States Army register. There was raised in round numbers $300,125. The property increased in value fv m $13,500 when purchased by Bishop Payne, to $130,000 (in¬ cluding endowments) in 1892. On April 5, 1898, the Legislature of Ohio, by a unanimous vote in both Houses, placed at the credit of the Endowment Fund of tne University, the Randolph Fund of $6,643. Eev. Joshua H .Jones, A. H., D.D, was elected Presi lent >f the University in 1900, an 1 it app-ars that under his administration an era of prosperity and progress unsurpassed in the hist >ry of the in¬ stitution is about to dawn. On March 19, 1887, the Legislature pass ;d a law establishing the "Normal and Industrial Department." It is supp >rte I entirely by the State. It is placed on the same financial basis as the other State educational institutions, receiving a levy of one-hun Iredth <>f a mill on the grand tax duplicate, about $17,800 per annum. No higher indorsement of a colored institution can be found in the Unit¬ ed States. Prof. J. P. Shorter is-the Superintendent. On June 18, 1891, Payne Theological S -urinary was founded. It has its own board of directors. Bishop Payne was it first dean, his successor being Dr. Johu (i. Mitchell, one of the founders of Wilber- force University. With him were associated Prof. W. S. Scarbor¬ ough and the Rev. (t. W. Prioleau on the first Faculty. Tuition is free. The Seminary is supported by the A. M. E. Church. It has a faculty of three, and presents both an English mid a Regular course. On January 9, 1891, President Cleveland detailed Lieut, John H. Alexander to organize, and instruct in a Military Department at Wil- berforce. His sudden death created a vacancy which was tilled by the ap¬ pointment of Lieut, diaries Young, the only remaining colored offi¬ cer in the United States Army who is a graduate of West Point. Lieut. Young rendered excellent service to tne University, not only in a military capacity, but also in giving gratuitous instruction in French and Trigonometry. GENERAL DATA. The attendance is drawn from 30 States, or more, asi.le from Canada, Africa, West Indies, Mexico and South America. In inter- WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY 13 collegiate oratorical contests, Wilberforce has won twice in Ohio— the only times entered, and furnishing the only colored contestants. She received a medal for her exhibit at New Orleans, a diploma in Paris, and a medal and a diploma at the World's Fair at Chicago. President Wm. McKinley and Frederick Douglass are on the list of her honorary Alumni. A Telephonic connection within the University secures the im¬ mediate transmission of all telegrams. Students and other persons on reaching Xenia, will reduce expenses by using the depot telephone or proceeding to the Telephone Exchange, calling up Wilberforce, and ordering conveyance from the University, if none are found in waiting. CONDITIONS FOE ADMISSION. Every Person Applying For Admission Must Bring Testimonials Of Good Moral Character. No student from abroad under fourteen years of agp will be ad¬ mitted as a member of the University nor of a lower grade than the First Year English Preparatory. When it is desired that students board in families, their parents and guardians must consult the faculty before selecting their board¬ ing places. Students, having been expelled or dismissed, will not be re-ad¬ mitted to the University at a subsequent session unless they have received the indorsement of the faculty. Students from other schools must present certificates of honor¬ able dismission from the proper authorities. EXAMINATIONS. For admission to advanced standing, candidates will be thor¬ oughly examined in the studies of the previous year, or their equiv¬ alents. At the close of each term, the classes are examined in the stud¬ ies of the term. Important examinations are held at various times throughout the term. Both oral and written examinations are held at the end of the year. No student will be permitted to continue with his class unless his record during the term and at the examination show good scholarship, and reach the average required by the faculty. LIBBABY. The University library contains about 5,500 volumes. The per¬ sonal library of the late Eev. J. P. Morris is a valuable addition. H ANNUAL, CATALOGUE Excellent libraries belong both to Payne Seminary and the N. & I. Department MUSEUM. Museum Hall was fitted up in 1876 for the reception of a Muse¬ um valued at $2,000. The Museum contains excellent collections in Botany, Mineralogy, Paleontology, Lithology and Zoology. The se¬ lections have been made with reference to working value and useful¬ ness, and afford studeuts an opportunity for that scientific study which can only be pursued successfully with suitable specimens. We solicit from our friends such contributions as will add to the inter¬ est and value of our collections. ART ROOM. The Art Room contains plaster models of statuary to the value of $200, the gift of Rev. J. Ware, of Boston; also the private art col¬ lection of Bishop Payne. We desire to increase these collections and will gratefully acknowledge all gifts. LABORATORY. The Labratory has been recently enlarged, and is a valuable auxiliary to the study of the sciences. SCHOLARSHIPS. The late Mr. A. I. Powers, of Pottsdam, N. Y., established an endowment fund for two scholarships, and the late Mrs. Mary E. Monroe endowed the Monroe scholarships. The bequest of Mrs. Elizabeth T. Woodyear creates the Noah and Elizabeth Tillotson scholarships, the Financial Board of the A. M. E. Church maintains others, while the will of Bishop Payne makes provisions for seven Payne scholarships. NEEDS. Many of the students need a helping hand to enable tliem to con¬ tinue their course; hundreds of letters imploring aid and opportu¬ nity for work, that an education may be obtained, are annually re¬ ceived by the President and Secretary. Great good would be accom¬ plished in this direction by contributions. While the Institution, through its officers, will do all in its power to encourage worthy stu¬ dents who have little or no means, yet it cannot promise any definite AMOUNT OF WORK OIl SUPPORT WITHOUT WORK FOlt ANY DEFINITE NUMBER OF STUDENTS. WlLL NOT OUR FRIKINDS AID US IN HELPING THE NEEDY AND DESERVING ONES ? WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY 15 We are in need of additional apparatus for the department of Sci¬ ence and applied Mathematics. We need funds for the improvement of buildings and grounds and especially f >r the erection of dormitories. Scientific and Philosophical works that bring discovery and dis¬ cussion down to the latest hour, are needed as reference-books for professors and students. It is believed that no better investments can be made than to devote funds to the purposes mentioned. SOCIETIES. There are maintained by'the students four literary societies—the Sodalian, the Philomathean, the Payne, and the Dodds--a Y. M. C. A., a Y. W. C. A., a Y. 1'. S. C. E., a missionary society, the Orpheus Orchi stra, an Athletic Association and the Wilberforce Brass Band. There is a Woman's College Aid Society, the oldest and (me of the helpful auxiliaries at the University. THE WORLD'S FAIR.

Wilberforce is three and a quarter miles northeast of Xenia which is on the Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis Ry., 05 miles from Cincinnati, and 55 miles from Columbus. Wilberforce Station, at which accommodation trains stop, is within twenty minutes walk westward to the University. The healthfulriess and beauty of the locality is unsurpassed. Its mineral springs are of great value. RELIGIOUS INFORMATION. At 7:45 a. m. all the students assemble for Chapel service which consists in reading a portion of the Scripture, singing a hymn, and prayer. All sectarianism will be discountenanced, but assiduous eff >rts will be made to favor and render inviolate the profession of Christianity, and to induce those who are not truly religions to become so. To all who are inclined to respect the Christian religion and its institutions, the welcome hand will be heartily extended ; but to those whose influence is prejudicial to religion and good MORALS, no protract¬ ed stay can be allowed ; since the success of an educati >nal enter¬ prise is strictly pr< porti nal to its moral and religious tone.

The aim of this course is to give the student a knowledge of natural science that will be a basis for extensive study in any siib- ject. The laboratory method is used with each branch. In Physics, the lectures, experiments, and study are in Mechanics, Heat, Elec¬ tricity and the applications of the last. Various works are used. For the study of Botony, hundreds of herbarium specimens from Europe and North and South America are available to the student. The vicinity is especially rich in plant life of hill, meadow, riverside and marsh. In Chemistry the work is confined to principles, experiments in general Chemistry and qualitative analysis. The Museum offers special advantage in studying Mineralogy, Paleontology, Lithology, and Zoology. The Laboratory practice of the last subject includes the study in the dissecting-room of the vital parts of animals. EDWARD A. CLARKE, Professor of Natural Sciences. Glassies.

Hulick, and others, President Cleveland authorized the Secretary of War to designate Wilberforce Univer¬ sity as a school for military training, and detailed Lieut. John H. Alexander as professor of Military Science and Tactics. His sud¬ den decease led to the detail of a second officer, and Lieutenant Charles Young, graduate of West Point, received such appi intment. The scholastic, physical, and disciplinary advantages of such a de¬ partment, in addition to the military, make it an acquisition of ex¬ ceptional value. It is to the honor of Wilberforce that it is the first colored insti¬ tution, and as yet the only one, to receive such favor from the Gen¬ eral Government. The War Department has supplied arms, cannon, and equipments, to the value of $3,386.21. On May 23, 1895, the first inspection v»as had by Capt. Hoistand the regular U. S. military inspector, the result oi which was entire¬ ly creditable to the department. The uniforms were especially com¬ mended. The cost of uaifofiii is about .'&10.00 a suit, made to order and including caps. All male students, unless expressly excused take instruction and drill in this department. The University au¬ thorities expect its students to be uniformed, which can take the place of other clothing at even less expknsk Patrons are urged to act upon this suggestion. All students are liEQUIREl) J3Y THE .BOARD to provide themselves with uniforms. COURSE OF STUDY. Theoretical : a.

WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY 33 The cadets are formed into a battalion officered from their own numbeis, these officeis t > be chosen from tlv s.' who excel in class standing, who are most exemplary in deportment, correct in the performance of duty, and military in bearing. Special attention will be given to seeing that the cadets wear their uniforms at all military duties, that they are obedient, polite, orderly, and cleanly, as from habits thus formed must be expected the good to be derived from military training. During the recent hostilities between the United Staces and Spain, Lieutenant Youug was granted a leave of absence by the War Department, and was appointed Major of the Ninth Battalion, Volunteer Infantry, by Governor Bushneil. Fourteen cadets and ex-cadets entered the Battalion with him. Messrs. Bass, Ballard and Welch were among those promoted to Lieutenancies. Though not called to the scene of action, Lieutenant Young held his position, and was in camp until the war closed. Tnen he returned to us. In the fall of 1899, he rejoined his regular regiment in anticipation of examination for promotion. The efficiency of our cadets iu the regular battalion drill was superior to anything else in the command. During his absence, the senior officeis in rank took command of the cadets—Captain S. A. Hull, Class of '98, followed in turn by Captain J. S. Coage, Class of '99, and later by Lieutenant W. P. Welch, Class of '00. All these young men gave good service, ren¬ dering satisfaction to all concerned. Nine young men examined by the general inspecting officers have graduated from the Department, and their names are on file with the War Department at Washington. 34 ANNUAL, CATALOGUE CATALOGUE OK STUDENTS Collegiate Department.

Arnett, who interested in the effort the Rev. John G. Mitchell and his wife, Fannie A. He secured the option of their place, and then presented the plan to Rev. Jas. A. Handy, Prof. J. P. Shorter, Bishop W. J. Gaines, Bishop B. F. Lee and Bishop A. Grant, who approved and gave their hearty co-operation. Authority was secured from the Board of Trustees, as follows: The Board of Trustees of Wilberforce University, at its session, June, 1890, on motion of Bishop A. Grant, made Bishop B. W. Arnett chairman of a committee to consider the propriety and feasi¬ bility of establishing a Theological Seminary at Wilberforce, to be a part of it, but to be controlled by a pecliar arrangement, so that it would be made more efficient than at that time. The following is the committee as completed: Bishop B. W. Arnett, D.D Wilberforce, O. Bishop W. J. Gaines, D.D Atlanta, Ga. Bishop A. Grant, D.D San Antonio, Tex. Rev. J. A. Handy, D.D Washington, D. (J. Rev. B. F. Lee, D.D., LL.D Philadelphia, Pa. Rev. T. H. Jackson, D.D Wilberforce, O. Prof. J. P. Shorter, A.M., LL.D Wilberforce, O. The subject of how to improve the facilities of the Theological Department, and how to get more persons to attend, and thereby in¬ crease the power of the pulpit, were considered carefully and prayer¬ fully. The growing demands of the church, the imperative require¬ ments and demands of the age for trained and tried men to be the moral and spiritual leaders, were weighed by the committee, who came to the unanimous conclusion that unless the church put forth Rev. B. T. Tanner, D.D., Dean. WIIyBERFORCE UNIVERSITY 5i some organized effort to perpetuate an intelligent ministry, it would have to go to the rear of the procession of progress, and eventually lose its place as the leader of the advanced guard of race redeemers. It was apparent to the committee that the magnitude of the work of the church, and complexity of the organization—that those who were to control and manage it must be trained in the doctrine, laws, cus¬ toms and history of the church from its organization to the present, so that they may see its possibilities, and comprehend the work to be done in the future. The plan of the committee was presented to the Trustee Board at its session, June 18,1891, and after some modifications, was unan¬ imously adopted. The name chosen was THE PAYNE THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY OF WILBERFORCE. This name was given in honor of Bishop Daniel Alexander Payne* the Senior Bishop of the A. M. E. Church, who was born, Feb. 24, 1811, in Charleston, S. C., and who from early childhood had been engaged in the work of mental and moral training. He was the pio¬ neer educator in the Southland before the war. He was driven away from his home, May 15, 1835, and found a home in the North, and there he took the place of a leader of the leaders, and stood for more than fifty years without an equal or a superior in the work of race redemption. He lived to see a wonderful change in the work of ed¬ ucation. When the work began, there were but few true and tried friends. Now many leaders inside and outside of the church are all champions of the cause of Christian education. CALENDAR. Fall Term begins, Tuesday, October 1, 1901.

Three private libraries, containing in the aggregate about one thous¬ and volumes, have recently been given the Seminary. The largest, con¬ taining very valuable theological books, was the library of the late Bish¬ op Campbell ; the second in size was that of Charles Ray ; the third be¬ longed to Joseph Ellington ; others to Bishops Wayman and Handy, and Rev. J. R. Hamilton. About sixty small volumes have been con¬ tributed by friends, through the solicitation of Mrs. S. W. Dodds, M.D. Several peiiodicals, weeklies, monthlies, and quarterlies are received regularly through Bishop D. A. Payne and Mrs. S. W. Dodds. Theological students may have free access to the Library and Read¬ ing Room, may borrow books, and use carefully the weeklies, monthlies and quarterlies, according to the rules and regulations for the govern¬ ment of the Library and Reading Room. WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY 57 At the first Annual Meeting of the Board of Directors, June 13, 1893 a plan was adopted to secure a large library for the Seminary. An out¬ line of that plan is as follows: The library shall consist of a number of alcoves. Each alcove is to number a thousand volumes. The alcove is to contain a certain lium- "ber of divisions or shelves. There will be a company organized for each alcove, numbering as many members as there are divisions in the al¬ cove. Each Bishop is to be the president of a company. The names of the president and members of his company are to be engraved on a sil¬ ver plate or written 011 a suitable tablet and placed upon the alcove. Any good and responsible person is to have the privilege of organizing a company and filling an alcove. These alcoves are all to be filled with -valuable books within five years from the time of the First Annual Meet¬ ing of the Board of Directors. It is expected that a large fine building will be erected before the expiration of five years. In this building the new library will be loca¬ ted. Every library given by a friend or friends of the Seminary will be put into a special case, or a particular division of the case, or an al¬ cove, and the name of the donor or donors placed upon it. 58 ANNUAL CATALOGUE ADMISSION. A collegiate education, or its equivalent, constitutes the neces¬ sary preparation for the Regular course of Theology.

A good English education will be necessary to enter this course. There, is a Theological Preparatory Department for those who are not prepared to enter the English or short Theological course.

WIEBERFORCE UNIVERSITY 7i Normal and Industrial Department. This Department was established at Wilberforce University by Act of Legislature of Ohio in 1887, and by an almost unamimous vote of the General Assembly in 1896 was placed upon permanent support by direct levy with the other educational institutions of the State. It is under the control of a special Board of nine Trustees, five selected by the Governor and four by the University Board. Accord¬ ing to the law under which it is organized, every member of the Leg¬ islature is entitled to select one or more youth from bis district who may receive the benefits of this department free of tuition, room- rent, heating and incidental expenses. This department is destined to become the great centre in the North for Normal and Industrial training for colored youth. Certificates are valid for the entire course for which they are given, but State students are required not to absent themselves at any time during the school year for more than eight consecutive weeks on pain of forfeiting their certificates. State students may take both Normal and Industrial work. Stu¬ dents who select industrial work must continue in the line selected through the year. • A diploma is awarded to those who complete the Normal and Commercial Courses, and a certificate to those who complete an in¬ dustrial or. the Shorthand and Typewriting Course, if literary conditions are fulfilled. We invite attention to the advantages offered in our Industri¬ al courses. Senators and Representatives who appoint State students to this department, are respectfully asked to give the preference to those who are prepared to enter upon the Normal or Commercial course on the one hand, or to those who intend to follow one or more industries to completion. The crowded condition of our build¬ ings would urge this suggestion, if no other demand were upon us. 72 ANNUAL CATALOGUE o'neill hall, Erected in 1890, is a fine brick building five stories high, including mansard story and basement, and furnishes dormitory accommoda¬ tions for eighty young ladies. On the first floor are the Normal, Music, Beception, Libiary and Sewing rooms. The dimensions are 120x42 feet; foundati mi of blue limestone ; superstructure of brick with tin roof. The Hall is provided with all m< dern conveniences, and its completion marked an epoch in the educational facilities at this insti¬ tution. The dormitoiies are furnished with bedsteads, spring mattresses and pillows, drrss"r«, washstands, chairs and tables ; heated by hot water, supplied with bath-rooms, laundry, kitchen and dining-room. ! igtgj iiljil r in § it) \ii sis. i> n isf/i1.] i I ji I HH H M||j|0^gjl | is !Sf j§' j8SB=!=pj 1 1 1 ! ! 1 1 1 Pure spring water is brought to every floor by an electric motor, while cold and warm water is furnished for all purposes, Fire- escapes and Babcock fire-extinguishers have been provided. A new dormitory for young ladies is now in process of ^rection which when completed, will acc mmodate one hundred. It will con¬ tain laundiy, kitchen and dining rooms, and afford temporary ac¬ commodations for Cooking and Sewing departments. It will be heated with hot water and supplied with modern conveniences. The car¬ pentry work is under the supervision of the head of the Carpentry Department, and he and his students are responsible for its proper completion. Qui present capacity has been taxed to overflowing to accom¬ modate over three hundred students. WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY 73 To the philanthropy of the State of Ohio is due the progress made in the direction of buildings and increased facilities. No lang¬ uage can measure the service rendered to the cause of education by our noble bodies of legislators. The use of power and electricity was introduced in 1895—a forty horse-power engine and a 500 incandescent dynamo being employed for that purpose. A three-story industrial building was erected, chiefly by the stu¬ dents, in 1895. In 1900 a new brick building, Howells Hall, was erected for the Printing Department and equipped with a Cranston Improved News¬ paper and Book Press, an 8x12 Chandler and Price Gordon; about 300 pounds of body type, and ab >ut forty fonts of job type, enabl¬ ing us to give students thorough and more practical training. The same year a beginning in Shoemaking was made for which a larger building will be provided as soon as means are available. A farm of 130 acres of land adjoining the University grounds has been bought, under the direction of the Board, and develop¬ ments in agriculture are expected to follow. Most valuable lectures on practical farming and domestic ani¬ mals have been given from time to time by prominent specialists residing in the county. 74 ANNUAL CATALOGUE COURSES OK STUDY NORMAL GOURSE. Sarah C. Bierce Scarborough, Oswego State Normal and Training School ('75), Professor of Pedagogics and Principal of the Normal and Industrial Department. The Normal Course aims to meet the growing demand for pro¬ fessionally trained teachers. The "New Education" demands that the teacher shall know what he is to train, why and how ; that he shall be able to take the standpoint of the child, and develop its mind according to natural laws ; that he shall keep pace with the age in its educational theories and practices, as well as have a foundation of culture studies sufficient for a strong mental grasp of the ped¬ agogical work. To this last end the requirements in the culture studies of this curriculum bend. The pedagogical work of the course embracing Philosophy and History of Education, School Economy and Specific Method work, with practice, aims to give a clear comprehension of the basic prin¬ ciples of pedagogics—such a knowledge as will enable the pupil teacher to secure the best results in child-training. Practice work is given daily during the Senior Year. In short the embryo teacher is taught that he is to teach the sub¬ ject rather than a»text-b00k,—and that above all, he is to teach the child :—to develop a mind, and to that end, he is inducted into the most approved methods. Students to be admitted to this Course must have passed through the Studies of the English Preparatory Dep't. Professor Joseph P. Shorter, A.M., Superintendent of G. N. 8 I.

A Commercial Course, to meet the demands of the present ago, should be practical, technical, and at the same time liberal in its character so as to be educational. It is not enough for a Commercial School to train bookkeepers, clerks, and assistants ; but there is a more important need,—that of training business men for life's varied duties. The curriculum of such a school should be of such thoroughness -as to prepare the student equally for the duties of manager or pro¬ prietor as well as that of clerk or bookkeeper. Such are our aims here. Students to entei upon this ct ui se must have passed through the studies of English Preparatory Department. A Diploma will be awarded to those only who have complet¬ ed this Course and in addition, the College Preparatory Course as set forth in the Institution's Annual Catalogue. COURSE OF STUDY.

Lowell W. Baker, Instructor. An eminent divine in Chicago has said: " Probably one-half of the crime and degradation in this country is caused by the men having no settled vocation and "every young man, no matter what his station in life, should have a trade." To supply this growing want, manual training schools and departments are daily forcing" themselves into greater prominence. In the carpenter's trade we have one of the cleanest, most healthful and lucrative employments. "With the increase of population there is a constant demand for the " house to live in," and four--fifths of the labor used in the construc¬ tion of this house must be done by the carpenter. In consequence, a good carpenter is seldom out of employment. We endeavor in this department to give the studeut a thorough training. COURSE OF STUDY. FIRST YEAR—first term : Names and use of Tools.

Sewing has become of late years so valuable an art, that a .young- woman's education L-; no longer considered complete without some knowledge of this very important branch. Because of this fact, to the curriculum of most public and high schools and seminaries, sew¬ ing has been added. The course here has been planned so as to impress thoroughly upon the student the value of order, accuracy in sewing, economy in cutting, the art of buying, the various kinds and qualities of mate¬ rials, and the colors, materials, and trimmings suited to the different types of figures. The aim of this department is to fit young women to meet especially the increasing demand for trained teachers and also prepare them to become practical dressmakers. Each student is re¬ quired to furnish and make for herself at least one dress before graduation. . The students are requested to make their own clothing in the department. This enables them to have more practice than could be given otherwise. Only one-third of the value of making the garment will be charged. COURSE OF STUDY.

Charles Alexander, Instructor. There is a a;reat lack of first-class printers in the United States, and especially among the Negroes,—printers who have a thorough understanding- of the rudiments of the business. Many of those who are engaged in the work do certain things in a certain way without knowing why; they have no intelligent reason to offer. They have but a superficial knowledge of the Art Preservative. They are sadly in need of theoretical as well as practical training in the requisites of the art. They seem not to understand the fact, that the man who claims a practical knowledge of his business, but does not understand the theory, has no real knowledge of it at all. The object of this course is to fit young men to meet the re¬ quirements of the average Country Printing office. The course provides instruction in .Job. Newspaper, and Book printing, with special reference to bill-heads, note-heads, statements, letier-heads, business cards, dodgers. circulars, programmes, blank-books, tabu¬ lar work, minutes, pamphlets, writing pads, and general newspaper work. Careful and critical attention is given each job executed by the student. Instructions regarding the appliances, machinery, power, ink, paper, managing, estimating and other important m itters are imparted in lectures and prt,ctical talks given by the instructor.

Cooking is the art of preparing food for the nourishment of the human body." Within the past few years much interest has been taken in this particular branch of Domestic Science. The rapid and marked im¬ provement in cooking utensils ; the introduction of new fuels, for cooking purposes ; valuable research along the line of Food Econ¬ omy ; the establishment by the government of Food Experimental Stations ; and the introduction of cooking classes into public schools girls' academies and seminaries, and even into universities, have all helped to bring the matter before the public ; so that " Scientific Cooking" is no longer a mere fad but a demand of the present age. To obtain the most nutritious food with the least expenditure of time or labor; and to prepare it with the least possible waste of food material is the problem of the present day. The resources of our country are such as to make it possible for every intelligent and energetic American to be well fed at the minimum cost.

The object of No.imal Drawing is to develop the esthetic nature of students, thus creating appreciation for grace, fitness, propor¬ tions, form, magnitude and space relations. Drawing is also a means by which to gain control of the muscles, while it exercises a refining influence upon the character. Special attention is given to those who intend to teach drawing in Public or Normal schools. We are not confined to any one sys¬ tem ; the instruction is broad enough to enable one to teach any system. Free hand drawing is taught throughout the course. CHARACTER OF WORK.

Voice culture is a distinct branch in the deqartment of music and holds the same rank as instrumental music. The art of singing is the foundation of all true musical culture. The study of instru¬ ments cannot cultivate the ear to that perfection which is attained by the careful study of vocal music. Every one, if possible, should learn to sing. "Song is man's own true peculiar music". The voice is our own peculiar connate instrument; it is the liv¬ ing, sympathetic organ of our soul. Whatever moves within us, whatever sensation or emotion we feel, becomes immediately embod¬ ied and perceptiable in our voice. The ability to sing is like any other of the natural powers which God has given us. The true cultivation of the voice consists in the •development of pure tone, correct use of the breath, intonation, at¬ tack, legato, accent, phrasing, and enunciation are the leading feat¬ ures of technical drill. SINGING CLASSES. Students are graded in Yocal Music, and promoted on examina¬ tion, the same as in any other study. With proper application, it is thus possible for all who take couoses of study to learn musical no¬ tation so as to read readily any ordinary composition. Those com¬ pleting the work of the Singing Classes are thoroughly prepared to begin successfully Voice Culture. THE UNIVERSITY CHOIE. The object of this organization is to study and from time to time to render in public, standard musical compositions of the most ad¬ vanced character, including the more difficult masses and oratorios •compositions of the best German, Italian and English writers. A Glee Club, University Male Quartette, Ladies Chorus and an excel¬ lent Church Choir have been maintained affording excellent oppor¬ tunities for the development of those who appear in public.

L" rom these Choral Classes selections are made for the University Choir, the Church Choir, the Glee Club, the Male and Female Quartettes. Such an arrangement greatly improves the congregational, choir and individual singing. Much is done to cul¬ tivate a desire for work oa the part of the students that will lead them to the higher attainment in musical culture for which our students, as a class, are naturally gifted. 1 uitiou for Special Voice Culture, is the same as for Instrumental Music State Students in Wilberforce university.
