MOUNT UNION COLLEGE.

lne Term just closeu has Deen
the largest Winter Term in the his
tory of this rapidly growing College.
The Term beginning next Tuesday
bids fair to be larger than any form
er one. No College in Ohio, nor
over three or four in the United
States, have so many students in full
College Glasses as are in this. Such
are the arrangements of a Spring,
Summer, and Fall Terms that stu
dents can get irregular College year
of study, and by teaching in winter
can earn enough to defray their
whole College expenses, without
losing time, or falling behind their
classes.
Students from the public schools,
who have not studied Latin and
Greek. are admitted regular stand
ing in College classes and courses,
by having studied equivalents in
Mathematics and Natural Science.
The leading object is, ''to provide
for the people Progressive College
where any person can freely and
economically obtain superior illus
trated instruction in any useful
study"
Among the characteristics of the
college are the following: Full cour-
ses-Scientific, Philosophical, An
cient and Modern Classical; Special

mercial, Instrumental and Vocal
Music, Fine Art, Preparatory; Elec-
tive-Llberty given in the choice of
studies; Apparatus and specimens
for practically illustrating each
study; Equal privileges to Ladies;
Christian, but not Sectarian or Par
tisian; Economy in students ex-
penses: Superior Literary Societies;
Special care for the health, morals,
discipline and comfort of students;
a live and modernized College adap
ted to the masses, to the public
school system of the country, and
to the progressive spirit of the age.

is used for the benefit of students.

any course when completed.
By having erected and furnished
two large Boarding Halls, the col

rates, the price of rooms and board,
the chief expenses of students
their total expenses being lower
here than at any other Institution
of equal advantages. In each De-
partment there is provision for an
ample number of thoroughly quail
fed, experienced and reliable Pro-
fessors.
