Howard Payne College.
Latin.
The study of Latin should be begun by- the pupil as soon as
posible; although a difficult subject, the rudillents of the language
can be more easily acquired at an early age. The work in the
preparatory school will be more granimmatical than literary. By
constant drills and practice an attempt will l)e made to give the
student a firm and useful foundation for his higher collegiate work.
Greek.
The remarks about Latin apply also to (;reek with the single
exception that the study of this should not be b)egun until the first
year of Latin is finished. The same method will be employed in
Greek as in Latin; accuracy in grammatical form will be especially
enforced and reviews and practice drills will not be sparingly used.
Physiology.
In this coure the structure of the human body will be taught,
and such knowledge will be gained as will help pupils to a good
uderstanding of the laws of health. \We have a complete collection
of models for illustrating the work in this department and these
will be constantly employed.
In connection with the usual instruction in physiology, Dr. V.
B. Anderson will deliver a series of lectures on "The Practical
Hygiene of our Homes," and on "Perverted Physiology"' as we find
it among students."
The instruction given by this series of lectures will be of the
highest importance to every student.
Physics.
This course is designed as preparatory to the theoretrical Physics
of the College. The branch will be taught mainly by experiment,
supplemented by text books and lectures. This will be .a popltlar
course in which an elementary acquaintance with the general I's
of phenomena in nature will be gained. . ; ., r- - ---- -----~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
