The Novel in the COLLEGE Currlculnm.

The Novel in the College Curriculum.
If think course in novel reading is of
the very highest moral benefit to stu
dents OF q university" said Professor Nc
Clintock of the Chair Of Literature at the
University of Chicago. ''In fact, it is
the only way by which many OF the meu
can be reached, for they will read novels
when nothing in any other form of liter
ature will appeal to them. But the course
as outlined by DIR. Phelps in the Yale
curriculum is not at all q new method in
college instruction. Since the establish
ment OF the Chicago Z University there have
been plans OF study similar to what is
now being forwarded as unique in
theory, and as early as 1893 | delivered
series of lectures on the development of
the English novel from Richardson to
the present day. The same year Pro-
fessor Wilkinson conducted course on
the short story, illustrated by examples
from modern fiction. In 1894 a course on
the realistic school of noyelists was an
nounced for the following spring to be-
given by DR.. Triggs, SO that DR.. Phelps
idea is scarcely new in college work. In
order to enter the Chicago University it
ls obligatory for the student to have read
several novels, SO that the study of fic-
ton and the classification OF stories are
important factors in our university cur
riculum. m."-Chicago Times Herald.

For friendship that is left, warm, sure, and

For love that fills your heart with high en-

That sheds goodwill" and gladness DER
