by a study of oceanography, and this by a study of rivers, mountains, shore lines, etc. The spring term is devoted to a study of glaciers and their effects, with especial reference to the United States. This course is adapted to the needs of the secondary school teacher, besides furnishing a second year of training for those who wish to pursue the subject of geology.

23. Elementary Meteorology. Two hours. Fall. Lectures and recitations. T., 10. Laboratory practice, time to be arranged. Geological Lecture Room. Professor TARR.

This course is intended for secondary school teachers of Physical Geography. Courses 22 and 23 together cover the ground ordinarily included under the term physical geography.

24. Seminary for Teachers. One hour. Time to be arranged. Consideration of methods to be employed in teaching geography and the earth sciences in the schools. Geological Laboratory. Professor TARR.

25. Glacial Geology. Three hours. Time to be arranged. Open to graduate students and to those undergraduates who are sufficiently advanced. Professor TARR.

In the fall and spring the class will investigate in detail the glacial geology of a region selected for the purpose. This will give practice in actual field investigation, and in field methods.

33. General Economic Geology. Two hours throughout the year. Lectures and laboratory work. Time to be arranged. A comprehensive course upon the origin and nature of the metallic and nonmetallic products with especial reference to those of the United States. The courses in General Geology (21) and Mineralogy (11), or their equivalents, are prerequisite. Geological Lecture Room. Dr. RIES. Intended for students in geology, for those studying mining engineering and for students in inorganic chemistry.

34. Clay Investigation. Primarily for graduates. Laboratory work, field work and reading. In the laboratory are taught the different methods of testing clays for the purpose of determining their uses. 35. Advanced Economic Geology. Primarily for graduates. This course, including laboratory work, field work and reading, will vary with the needs of the individual student.

MILITARY SCIENCE AND TACTICS.

Pursuant to the act of Congress creating the land grant on which the Cornell University is founded, and the act of the legislature of the State of New York assigning the land grant, instruction is provided in Military Science and Tactics.

Military Drill is required of all male freshmen and sophomores except aliens, laboring students, special students and those physically unfitted therefor. A student deficient in a term of Military Drill is not permitted to substitute anything else for that work, or to be excused from any subsequent term until the deficiency is removed. In the cases of students not taking Drill and Gymnasium, an equivalent in hours will be added to the 180 hours required for graduation. Stu

dents in the College of Law are exempt from this requirement, but may take any of the courses enumerated below.

Students who drill are required to provide themselves with the University uniform, unless excused on account of inability to procure it, and they are held accountable for loss or injury to the arms and other public property issued to them.

Any member of the Cornell University corps who has satisfactorily performed all the duties required for the first year, and who is qualified therefor, may be selected for the place of a commissioned officer, if needed. For the performance of his duties as a commissioned officer in the junior or senior year, he is entitled, if duly registered therefor, to credit of three recitation hours a week for the fall and spring terms, and, at graduation, he may receive a certificate of military proficiency with his diploma, provided he has also completed the course in military science prescribed for the winter term of the senior year.

Upon the graduation of each class, the names of such students as have shown special aptitude for military service will be reported to the Adjutant General of the Army and to the Adjutant General of the State of New York, and the names of the three most distinguished students in military science and tactics will be inserted in the Official Army Register, and published in general orders from Headquarters of the Army.

The following courses are offered in 1899-1900:

Military Drill is required of all male Freshmen and Sophomores except aliens, laboring students, special students and those physically unfitted therefor.

S. Army Register and published in general orders from headquarters of the army.

HYGIENE AND PHYSICAL CULTURE.

An introductory or general course of lectures is given each year to all freshmen in the University. Advanced courses of instruction are also given each year. These take up the various problems of physical culture, and consider the auxiliary appliances for their solution. Special attention is given to the needs of students intending to teach. For the physical training and development of male students there has been provided a Gymnasium, thoroughly equipped with baths, dressing-rooms, and all the apparatus usually found in a well-furnished gymnasium. This is under the charge of an experienced physician, the Professor of Physical Culture and Director of the Gymnasium, who examines every male student at his entrance and at stated intervals thereafter, learns the condition of his health, takes his physical measurements, and prescribes such exercises as may be required for his complete and symmetrical bodily development. The gymnasium is also open to all the members of the University for voluntary exercise; but the Professor of Physical Culture or the Instructor in Gymnastics is in constant attendance, and no student is suffered to indulge in hazardous or excessive athletic efforts, or to attempt any feat which in his individual case might be attended with risk.
