charged at the same rate as for a third year study. Satisfactory


work in this study may be substituted for work in the regular course at the discretion of the Superintendent.


The above course of study has been prepared with reference to


the needs of those students who do not expect to pursue a college course, but desire to acquire a knowledge of those branches which will fit them for active life. SPECIAL. ATTENTION, HOWEVER, IS GIN- EV TO PREPARING STUDENTS FOR COLLEGE, and third year work in Latin, Mathematics and other subjects will be given whenever a snf- ficient number of pupils desire it. Students are urged to take a col- lege course, and they will be admitted to any of the leading colleges of Indiana withont examination.


The course of study in the Grammar School is in harmony with


that adopted throughout the State. At the close of the Winter term the members of the second-year High School class hold an exhibition, for which each member pre- pares an essay, oration or declamation, and the public speakers are

in each. English and American Literature receive careful attention.


The work consists of a brief history of the rise and growth of the English Language, a history of the lives and times of the leading authors, and a critical study of selections from their writing. The aim is to create a taste for good literature.


LATIN.


In order to receive a diploma a student must have two years' work in Latin, or in special cases equivalents may be taken to fit the student for college. Thorough drill on the declension of nouns, adjectives and the conjugation of verbs is given, also on the appli- cation of the rules of construction and the acquiring of a consider. able vocabulary. The derivation of English words is studied, and in the advanced work exercises in sight-reading and Latin Composi- tion are given. It is the purpose to invest all the work in Latin with a living spirit that it may be a means of genuine literary cul- ture as well as of mental discipline.


HISTORY.


Besides the work in United States History in the Grammar School, a thorough foundation is laid in General History, English History, Civil Government and Political Economy. This course will open up to the student the deeds of mankind in all ages in their struggle for rational freedom. The course includes three full years of historical study.


SCIENCE.


The Academy is supplied with sufficient apparatus to be a valuable aid in the study of the Natural Sciences. In Natural Phil- osophy the subject is illustrated by many simple pieces of appara. Lus, besides an air pumpe, electrical machine, batteries, etc. In Chemistry, students do practical work in the Laboratory, which is well suppdied with chemicals and apparatus for the analysis of un- known substances. Geology and Mineralogy are illustrated by a collection of more than twelve hundred specimens, presented to the


SPICELAND ACADEMY.


Academy by the Alumni. In Zoology and Botany, animals and plants are studied from natme, and systems of classification are made prominent. In all the sciences, objects are studied as much as possible.


MATHEMATICS.


In this study, practical problems are given as much as possible and especially is this done in Geometry. The students have the use of a surveyor's compass and chain, and learn their practical use. Book-keeping and the practical phases of business paper and all commercial forms, are taught, and a student is prepared to take charge of a set of books for a business firm. In the High School, one year is spent on Algebra and one year on Geometry and Trigonometry.


NORMAL DEPARTMENT.


For several years past special arrangements have been made to give those students desiring to teach, the opportunity of Normal instruction during the spring term. A special Normal instructor has been employed, and many students of this and adjoining counties have availed themselves of its advantages.


The increasing demand for Normal work, and for a more ex- tended course than can be given during the spring term has induced the Board to add a Normal Department that provides for a full year's work of three terms, as follows :--


| 2ndG'graphy Pall Terol | Ist Grammar | Ist Arithmetic | Ist U. S. History | Psychology 1 2od Gener 1 2nd Arithmetic | 2nd U.S. History | It Ggraphy Winter Terai Spring Terms Reading 1 Physiology 1 Method 1


In the fall term classes will be organized with the view of con tinning the work throughout the year. Classes will also be provid- ed for those who have already done one term's Normal work. During the winter term both classes having started in the fall will advance to the next work in the course. In the spring term classes will be provided for those beginning the Normal work, and for those


1

who have done one term's work, and for those ready for the third term's work. It is thus seen that all the legal branches, Psychology,. and Method may be had in the spring term.


Inspection of the following schedule of classes will reveal the arrangement of the work throughout the year:

It is not the purpose of High Schools to give students a teach- er's knowledge of the legal branches. It, however, is known that maty high school graduates desire to teach for a period of time. This course of Normal work is especially fitted for this class of students and for students having graduated from the Common Schools, who wish to get a more comprehensive knowledge of the legal branches, aud learn correct methods of teaching them. Suf- ficient Psychology, Pedagogy, and Method will be given to make the work characteristically professional. The purpose of this de- partment can not be better stated thau by saying it is to give students a teacher's knowledge of the legal branches, Psychology and Method.


In the Normal Course it is not intended to conduct a scheme of cramming for examination, but it is our intention to help teachers in their schools, quite as much as to aid them to get licenses.


The addition to the work in the Normal Department will, in no way, interfere with the regular Academic Course. Work will be so arranged that students who desire to take part Academic work, and part Normal work will be conveniently accommodated.


Prof. G. W. Neet, the Superintendent of the Academy for


SPICELAND ACADEMY.


1894-95 is a graduate of The Indiana State Normal, has had con- siderable experience in Common School, and High School work, and also in Normal Institute work. He will be aided in this department by a competent assistant; so that we can confidently recommend the advantages which Spiceland offers to all students who desire to fit themselves for teaching.

Tuition will be considered due at the opening of each term, and settlement is expected to be made with either the treasurer or super- intendent.


No dednetion will be made for absence after enrollment, ex- cept in cases of protracted ill health. In event of sickness, notice must, in all cases, be given of the withdrawal of the pupil, as no de- duction will be made until this is done.


LITERARY EXERCISES.


Besides the work of the Literary Society connected with the school, literary exercises will be expected of students in all grades both in class work and before the whole school. Care is used that students may learn the art of composition and public delivery. To this end, public exercises are occasionally held to commemorate some author or well-known historical event.


Essays and declama- tion are a part of the regular school work.

CATALOGUE OF


LIBRARIES.


Four sets of Encyclopedias are in the school rooms, and these with the Dictionaries and numerous reference books are for the free use of all. There are three libraries in connection with the school, which contain about two thousand volumes; two of them belonging to the Interary Societies and the other to the Academy Association. Additions are made each year.


BOARDING.


The citizens of Spiceland have always given the students a hearty welcome by receiving them into their homes. It is the in- tention to offer students the advantage of a thorough education for a small ontlay of money. The cost of boarding when everything is furnished is $3 per week. Rooms either furnished or unfurnished can be rented by those who board themselves, and the cost of living reduced to a very small smm.


LECTURES.


Students have the opportunity to hear good lectures at a very small expense. The following lectures and entertainments were given under the auspices of the Y. P. S. C. E. during the season of 1893-94: "An Eloentionary Entertainment" by Prof. Trueblood, of Earlham College, "Citizenship" by the Rev. R. V. Hunter, of Terre Haute, "A Musical and Literary Entertainment" under the direction of Emily Louise Parker, "Source of Power" by President J. J. Mills, of Earlham College.


Students were admitted to these lectures and entertainments at the nominal fee of fifty cents for the course .. 1


GENERAL ITEMS.


The Government of the school is based upon the idea that man. hood is more than scholarship, that self respect and self control on the part of the student are important factors in the formation of character. Greater stress is laid upon the thoroughness of instrne- tion and accuracy of knowledge than upon rapidity of advancement.


A daily class record of the work each of pupil is kept. This re- cord and the final examination determine the recorded grade. Students whose daily class record is 95 per cent. with attendance, application and deportment equally good, may be excused from ex- amination.


For many years the health of the students has been uniformly good. There is probably no healthier locality in the state,


The Friends and Methodists both hold religious services on the Sabbath, and each maintains a Sabbath school. A society of Y. P. S. C. E. meets each Sabbath evening, and students are welcomed to its meetings.


A sufficient number of teachers is constantly employed, so that large classes may be avoided, and students may receive personal at- tention during the recitation.


Expenses are as low as at any other school affording equal ad vantages.


"The managers of the school are very careful to make this an in- stitution in which students who are away from home and its ro- straints will be surrounded by good, moral influences, and in this they have the co-operation of the citizens of the village.


There are no beer, liquor or billiard saloons in the village.


No student whose influence is known to have a corrupt tenden- cy will be retained in the school.


.


DIPLOMA.


Students whose conduct is exemplary, and who complete the course of study and prepare and deliver a suitable literary product- ion, will be furnished a diploma, signed by the instructors and the president of the board of trustees.

HISTORY.


Spiceland Academy is the oldest Academy in charge of Friends in Indiana. It was chartered as an Academy in 1872, but its history as a Friends' school is much older than this, dating back for more than sixty years. It is under the control of Spiceland Monthly Meeting, by which body the board of trustees is appointed. The teachers are selected by the trustees. While the school is under denominational control, it is not sectarian in the least; its founda- tion rests upon christian culture. The first class was graduated in 1870, and 166 have received diplomas from the Academy. More than 3,000 students have received instruction in the school since its organization as a Academy.


LOCATION.


Spiceland Academy is located in the beautiful and flourishing town of Spiceland, Indiana, in the southern part of Henry county, on the L. E. &. W. R. R., two miles north of Dunreith, on the Pennsyl- vania R. R. The buildings are situated in the midst of a beautiful grove adjoining which is a large campus, well fitted for the various sports engaged in by the students.


ENTRANCE.


Students may enter at any time, but students coming from other schools are required to bring certificates stating their literary and moral standing. In the absence of approved certificate, examina- tions will be held, and students classified accordingly.
