Arrangements have been made with the Berkeley Board of Education whereby the Allston Way School Building has been put at the disposal of the University for the Summer Session. An observation and practice school, consisting probably of the fourth, the sixth and the eighth grades, will be conducted here in connection with the Department of Education.

The subjects of instruction will include English, Geography, Arithmetic, and perhaps Nature Study. Students of the course in elementary education, as well as those in the subject-matter courses of the elementary school, will thus have an opportunity to observe type lessons, and a few will be able to teach under the guidance of capable critic teachers.

LAW.

WILLIAM CAREY JONES, M.A., Professor of Jurisprudence.
FREDERIC GERBER DORETY, B.L., LL.B., Lecturer in Law.

The Department of Jurisprudence will offer two courses in law· a first-year course, in Contracts, and an advanced course, in Constitutional Law. The primary purpose of these courses is to afford opportunity for systematic study under university direction to persons who are preparing themselves for the legal profession. At the same time they may be found helpful to teachers in general, and may serve as an element in a business or civic education. Other courses will be offered in succeeding years, and thus the whole scope of legal preparation will be covered in successive Summer Sessions. University credit will be given for work satisfactorily done in the Summer Sessions, and a degree in law may thus be ultimately obtained.

1. Law of Contracts.

Mr. DORETY.

Lectures, based on readings of some twenty pages a day in Williston's Cases on Contracts (2 Vols., latest edition). The course will be planned to suggest methods and principles to those studying law without other assistance, as well as to meet the needs of persons not intending to make a profession of the law, but desiring some general information of the principles by which legal relations in modern business are adjusted. It will include a study of general principles, with such special applications and local decisions as the limited time will permit. The major part of the course will be devoted to a study of the elements necessary to the formation of a legal contract, including offer and acceptance, and consideration, and of conditions precedent to the enforcement of a contract, particularly conditions implied in law, as applicable to entire, divisible and severable contracts. The course will also include a brief study of the Statute of Frauds, of the rights and liabilities of assignees, beneficiaries and joint makers of contracts, of discharge of contracts, and of illegality and impossibility of performance. 2 units. M Tu W Th F, 4. 19 North Hall.

2. Constitutional Law.

Professor JONES.

United States, both State and Federal. The main topics
