THE Department of Education is builded on two factors: theory and practice. The entire department aims at making efficient teachers of the students; with this end in view, the instructors have been chosen who are best fitted to direct and guide, and the course has been mapped out to prepare the students fora pedagogical profession. Dr. Small and Dr. Farley teach psychology, pedagogy, and the history and science of education. The course is very thorough and instructive, embracing the principles of the development of the mind as applied to children; this makes many a school room problem less difficult for the teacher. In the training department are experienced teachers who help the students with practice work by their wisdom and friendliness. Three quarters of practice is required of every graduate of the training department. and each is allotted to the various grades somewhat according to choice. The Grammar Room is in charge of Miss Jennie G. Marvin and her assistant. Miss Xettalie Boucher. Miss Christine Thoene is department teacher of the Intermediate, Miss Clara Trotter of the Second Primary, and Miss Lulu Reed of the First Primary. Miss Elizabeth Young is in charge of the kindergarten. Of supervisors. Miss Rose Swart is the head. She has been with this department for so many years that she is an invaluable aid to everyone concerned and understands thoroughly their perplexities. She is assisted by Miss Catherine Cavanaugh, whose little room under the stairs is a veritable haven for the sore-perplexed. Miss Mary Robb and Miss Grace Norton are supervisors for the Intermediate and Primary Grades. The excellence of the whole Training Department is a splendid incentive and example for the best pedagogy and gives a wholesome ideal for those who are to enter the profession of teaching. S
