FACULTY's RULE ON ATHLETICS

For over one hundred years Georgetown
College has been one Of the marked insti-
tutions Of learning in the United States.
It's location at the nations capital has been
one of the most advantageous that could be
selected, and it has prospered with the
passing of time. 1t has grown from a school
to college and from a college to univer-
sity, and its growth will naturally continue
with the growth and expansion of the cap
ital.
But 1t was more than one hundred years
ago that the foundations of the college were
laid AS much as 26s years ago. in 1888. in
fact, the plan for school at Georgetown
was formulated by Father Poulton. supe-
rior of the Maryland mission. The outline
was vague and the beginning was small.
but in 1885 the corporation of Roman Cath
Ole clergymen In the chapter held at White
marsh. Md. passed resolutions for the sale
of piece Of land belonging to the corpora
ton to aid the foundation of school at
Georgetown. Thereafter the progress of
the work was sure and steady.
Rev. John Carroll. afterward archbishop
Of Baltimore. was one of the first directors.

EASTERN COLLEGE CLAIMS.
Co-Educational Institution at Front

The Eastern College of Front Royal, Va,
is Well located for the best educational
work, is easily accessible from the four
time is far enough out of the noise and
rush of city life to be an ideal place for
the student The college was chartered
under the laws of Virginia. 1t is co-edu-
cational and undenominational. Though
its purpose was at first largely to supply
the educational needs of Virginia. it has
grown until its students are drawn from
twenty-five states.
The courses at the college are largely
elective, and while there are regularly
graded courses leading to the degrees OF
A. B. and B. s., the student who wishes
to follow a special line of work will find
the necessary instructors and apparatus
and can have a course of study mapped out
to suit his or her needs. The faculty of the
school believes that knowledge Is more
than memory and that the aim Of the
school should be to fit one for work in
after life rather than to force him to Ioi-
low a cut-and-dried system of learning,
much of which may be of little use to him
thereafter. except as mental gymnastics.
With this end in view the college has
been graded into departments-the AGA

partment of music. the department of art
and department of expression respectively.

dent to follow any line of work he pleases.
The aim of the management Is to have

develop the power to govern themselves.

VIRGINIA POLYTECHNIC.
Sciences, Agriculture and Mechanical
Arts Taught.

Congress in 1862 donated to the several
states of the Union large stretches OF public
land for the endowment of colleges giving
7; special prominence to instruction In agri-
| cultural and mechanical arts, and in the
! year 1873 such grant was accepted by the
| general assembly of Virginia. The Virginia
Agricultural and Mechanical College was
| opened to students in the fall of that year.
| For the purpose Of more clearly defining the
| scope Of the work Of the college the as
| sembly later changed its name to the Vir-
ginia Polytechnic Institute. It is one OF
! the most popular as well as of the
| most efficient educational institutions in the
| Old Dominion. 1t Is located at the town OF
Blacksburg.
Fifteen thousand dollars annually was
| given to Virginia, with similar grants to the
other states by Congress for the establish
| ment and support of an agricultural expert
| ment station. This station was made part
of the college in 1888 by act Of the state
| assembly. In 1880 the college was allowed
! two-thirds of an additional amount annu-
| ally appropriated by Congress to each state
! for the further endowment Of it's land grant
| college.
The sciences. especially those relating to
| agriculture and the mechanical arts, hold
| tho foremost place, in strict accordance with
| the law. Abundant provision Is made for in
structton in their principles and appl.ca-
| ton to the industries Of life In order to
meet the wants of different classes of stu
| offered. seven of the courses being of four
| years each. leading to the degree of bach
| eior OF science and two being shorter
| courses for certificates.
Every course includes certain element
| of general or liberal culture, in addition to
the special or technical studies appropriate
| to 1t, the aim being to give the student a
practical as well as theoretical knowledge
| OF the sciences relating to the profession or
| pursuit he proposes to follow.
Drills and other military exercises are
calculated to develop the bodily powers of
| the students. Both shop and field work
are provided In abundance. The institute
| provides also, SO far as its means permit,
1 for uninstructive work or manual labor for
| students needing pecuniary aid. Such work
| Is paid for at prevailing rates. BY the
| schedule OF lectures each student may have
| fifteen hours week with which to do as
| he pleases
| The institute is pleasantly situated and
| attractive in its interior and surroundings.

CoRcoRAN SCHOOL OF ART.
No Charge for Tuition to Apprecia-
tive Students,

The Corcoran School OF Art was formally
organised in 1887, although as early al
1875 rules for the observance of persons
drawing or copying In the building were
adopted by the board Of trustees. Mr.. q.
3. Andrews, about 1877, began to give
gratuitous instruction to students. An as
sistant instructor was appointed in 1890.
The first gold medal for the most mert-
torious work by q Corcoran student was
awarded in 1885, and In 1887 Mr. Andrews
was elected director of the school, a posi-
ton held by him until his resignation in
1000 MI. d. C. Messer succeeded him as
principal. and Mr.. Richard N Brooke. Mr.
James H. Moser and Miss Mathilde Mueden
were appointed assistant instructors. Mr..
Brooke at a later date was made vice prin-
cipal OF the school. With the addition OF
DR. Frank Baker as lecturer on anatomy,
the instructors named constitute the pres
ent faculty of the school.
The school under Its first director was
Influenced by the Germanic schools. Under
the present direction the Partisan influence
y more evident as the academic irstrtc-
tors have been under the instruction OF
Partisan teachers.
The Corcoran school draws its students
from the % nass OF tbe Tnea
States and in many cases have worked
In foreign schools.
It is claimed for the school that 1t stands
for serious and thorough study. proceeding
on the theory that persistence in right do
ing ultimately insures the direct and rapid
execution.
The courses of the schoof are not designed
for beginners and applicants for admission
are required to present drawings from the

and experience and skill in free-hand draw~
