THE NORMAL OFFERING I3 O I A Zeparimezzi Cfcfzoes. . Zaeafclzbzy hz general. NDIVIDUAL teaching is the subtle play of the teacher's life upon the pu- pil's. life to cause him to know what he would not acquire by himself, 10 do what he would not otherwise do, Z0 be what he would not alone become. School teaching implies a company of young persons, organized, and a person who is able rightly to stimulate and direct the energy of these young persons, both individually and collectively, who can teach every member of the class while he teaches the individual pupil 5 who can hold every pupil up to his best effort, and who is able to enter into the life of his pupils to lead them out and up into the larger and higher life of the world. ' The art of teaching is the art of directing the unfolding and perfecting of young human lives. A, G, B, .fcznyzza-yes. THE course in Latin, to take effect in September IQOI, has been so ar- ranged that it will be a comprehensive classical course. The High School grad- uates will be enabled to go on, where they left off and the Specials who are col- lege graduates, may be prepared for teaching any required Latin. S This new move does not mean that the classics taught in the High Schools will be neglected. There will be a chance for typical teaching and classroom exercises in Caesar, Cicero and Virgil. In the reading of the classes much stress will be laid on the style and literary merit of the various authors and es- pecially on the acquisition of understanding the Latin thought without the in- tervention of translating. Methods in vogue will be examined, the leading text -books named and com- pared, the iitting up of classrooms with books, maps, etc. suggested and time and manner of using readers and authors discussed.

The objects of the course are to present the subject matter of primary and grammar grades, to show principles and methods of teaching, and to develop mathe- matical power, both in the use of numbers and in teaching. L The course in Rhetoric seeks to give increased power in the use of Eng- lish, and to cultivate the ability to appreciate good literature. Thought and ex- pression are considered, and by practice work and discussion the features of the course are applied to teaching. F. A. C.
