KYTYTF' as m e-e E LLLAZLQQ Department of Music During the Hrst fifty years at Mount Holyoke the training in music consisted mainly of required choral singing, in which a high standard was maintained. Not until later was any oppor- tunity for private study in instrumental or vocal music given. With the building of the chapel and the gift ofa fine organ came the increased facilities for work, until at present students may receive private instruction in piano, organ, voice, violin, violon- cello and liute, as well as in various theoretical classes. Interest in choral work has steadily increased. The choir, vested and enlarged a few years ago, is now an important factor in the Sun- day services. G MR.

,K ..-, 1, , s or , ' , Eeeminelie Department of Applied Economics and Sociology Although only recently have the Social Sciences received separate departmental organization at Mount Holyoke, probably no other college for women can claim to have given them a place in the curriculum so early. I-lalf a century ago a course in Po- litical Science and Political Economy was offered and in 1888 one in International Law. Another pioneer step was taken in 1896 when there appeared a course in Socialism. The present department was first organized in 1906. AMY Hiawiss, l'h.D., Proffsror B.

Department of Biblical Literature Bible study was from the first required at Mount Holyoke. Recitations were held by different teachers on Sunday afternoons or during Monday chapel periods. In I86O certain definite sections of' the Bible were prescribed regularly for each year. About 1893, as part ofthe transition from Seminary to College, came the transf'erence of required Bible to week- days, under an instructor especially trained. The first electives were offered the requirement was reduced from eight hours to six, LILLA FRANCES MORSIE, S.'l'.M., ffrxoririte Proforma' fi MISS ELLIS in 1895, and two years later B.

During anniversary week,in 1863, John A. Andrews, Governor of Massachusetts, was present at the reading of 'compositions. One of' these, read by a member of the graduating class, was an earnest, impressive plea for a gymnasium. When she had finished, Governor Andrews started a subscription, heading it with his own name, and before night nineteen hundred dollars had been subscribed. Later, three of the trustees gave generous contributions and the first gymnasium was completed in 1865.
