duct an observation school near the University. The sixth, seventh, and eighth grades will be represented, and every opportunity will be offered to teachers attending the Summer Session to visit the school.

LABORATORY COURSES.

The work in Physics, Chemistry, and Geology will consist of practical laboratory courses, supplemented by lectures on the principles involved. Progress in developing the methods and fixing clearly the aim of such work has been so rapid that the best results have not yet found their way into books. This fact enhances the importance to teachers of the opportunity thus offered. In Physics and Chemistry provision will be made for students and applicants who wish to do experimental work in preparation for university matriculation.

The work in Physical Geography will include field excursions, and will be of especial value to teachers of this subject in the secondary schools.

REGISTRATION.

To insure adequate arrangements in due season, and to facilitate prompt communication with prospective students in case of change in present plans, all persons who desire to attend any of the courses are urgently requested to notify the Recorder of the Faculties on or before Wednesday, June 13, using the blank form of application appended to this announcement.
