sophcal Course and the Course in
Science, leading respectively to the de-
grees of Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor OF
Philosophy and Bachelor of Science.
A student may elect from 2O4 courses
in the College of Liberal Arts besides
having the great advantage OF contact
with the professional schools. The
proximity of the Colleges of Medicine
of Law, of Fine Arts and of Applied
Science, aids in choosing u life calling
and contributes materially to the de-
velopment OF the undergraduate mind
by contact with large number of
professional and technical students.
The college student Is peculiarly fa-
vored in ways that cannot be described
in this space by association with these
professional schools.
1t has been the policy of the univer-
sity from the first to give to the class-
cal languages that prominence in the
curric,lla that the best scholarship
recognizes as indispensable to a liberal
education. In addition to the work
prescribed for the degrees of A. B. and
PhB. elective courses are specified for
the remainder of the undergraduate
period. covering wide range of study
and investigation. Lectures are given
on history and on antiquities, illustrat-
ing public and private life, institutions,
laws. monuments, etc.
College of Applied Science.
Four-year courses are offered In
Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engi-
neering leaGing to the degrees of Civil
Engineer, Electrical Engineer and
Mechanical Engineer.
Civil Engineering.
The subjects treated of in this de-
partment may be grouped broadly un-
der three heads: Geodetic engineering,
structural engineering, and hydraulic
and sanitary engineering. The neces-
sary foundation for successful in
vestigation of all these branches is a
comprehensive study of technical
mathematics. This is pursued in the
first half of the four years work and
includes courses in trigonometry, am
alytical geometry and Gifferential and

by lathe, planning and milling machine
work.
The work in the engineering labora-
tory includes the testing of steam en-
gines, boilers, pumps, the work in the
hydraulic laboratory and practice with
the testing machines for tensile
strength.
Athletics.
A regular system of required gym
nasium exercises is arranged upon
scientific principles for the freshman
and sophomore classes. Ample pro-
vision has been made for college ath-
letic sports. By the generosity OF Mr..
John d. Archbold the university has
superb athletic field with eighteen-foot
quarter-mile cinder track with bevelled
turns for the bicycle, and large
grand stand and ample tennis courts.
The university is supplied with ball
cage. bathrooms, showers and needle
baths with hot and cold water, lockers,
and the usual equipments of first-
class gymnasium. All games and
sports are under the control of a COM
mittee which represents the faculty,
alumni and student body. The wishes
of parents and guardians are strictly
regarded in these matters, and stu

Mechanical Engineering.

The course in mechanical engineer
ms aims to give the student practical
land theoretical knowledge of those
principles which govern the design and
construction of machines. After Sc
curing thorough foundation in math-
ematics, physics and drafting. the
student enters upon those subjects
which are distinctive of his profession.
Beginning with general study of the
simpler modes of doing work, he ad-
vances gradually to the investigation
and design OF the steam engine and
other intricate machines.
Great Importance is attached to free
hand drawing, with the expectation
that before completing his course the
student shall be able to draw rapidly
and accurately any given piece of ma
chnery. Shopwork begins with the
sophomore year and is carried on to the
end of the course. The first year, s
work consists Of carpentry, wood
turning and pattern-making. This is
followed by instruction in forging,
chipping, fling and scraping, and then
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1902-05-24

is such as to permit the making of the
necessary experiments and surveys.
The observatory is especially we'll
equipped with astronomical appliances.
Among these may be mentioned SEX
tants, transit instruments, chrono-
graph, chronometer etc.
The degree OF Civil Engineer Is Civ
en- on the completion of the pre-
scribed work.
Electrical Engineering.
The course in Electrical Engineering
aims to give the student a knowledge
of the mechanical and electrical prin-
ciples involved in the construction Of
electrical machinery, to render him
competent to lay out a system for dis
tributing electrical energy under speci-
fed conditions and to present, in gen.
eral, the economical principles govern
ing the installation and operation Of
electric plants. Work in dynamo design
is carried on extensively. Electrical
engineering Is to u large extent me-
chanical engineering, and accordingly
the two courses have many subjects
in common The following electrical
courses are given: Direct current ma
chinery, alternating current machin-
cry, dynamo design, electrical installa-
ton. principles of electric lighting and
calculation of network, telegraphy and
telephony, construction and manage
ment of electric railroads, mechanical
and electrical laboratory and industrial
electricity.

THAT CHAPTER.

A chapter on SCOTS Emul-
sion often holds a prominent
position in the histories of
weak children.
The gist of that chapter
usually reads like this" child
weak, pale, thin, no appetite,
fretful, weakness left over from
grippe or other disease. Be
gan small doses SCOTS Emul-
sion three times a day after
meals. No apparent change
first week. Then appetite
improved, then strength in
creased, then child more lively,
slept better, a decided gain in
weight, better color in the face"
And so it goes till the child
is reported we'll and strong.
Sounds simple enough and
it is sinple-Scott's Emulsion
is just what the weak child
needs.
