KOTICE. In order to decide as to the advisability of permanently engaging a special teacher for the business department, Mr. H. W. BEHNKE was temporarily put in charge of this department. A similar arrangement will be made for 1898-99.

PREFATORY REMARKS. The Teachers' Seminary of Dr. Martin Luther College at New Ulm, Minn., was organized in 1893 under a resolution of the General Evangelical-Lutheran Synod of Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, and other States. It is supported by voluntary contributions from the congregations belonging to that body. The organization of the Seminary was prompted by the necessity of supplying Lutheran parochial schools in the Northwest with competent teachers, and this consideration primarily governs the selection of branches to be taught, and the determination of the ends to be attained. At the same time, the two lower preparatory classes offer a course which will afford sufficient training for entering the third preparatory class of any college for the purpose of completing a classical course. Finally, by arranging an extra business course for such students as desire it, the institution affords desirable opportunities to prepare for business life.

In consideration of the opportunities offered to me by Dr. Martin Luther College. I promise upon honor, that I shall not discontinue my studies at that institution except by the advice, or with the consent, of the faculty, and that, after finishing the normal course, I will assume a posi­ tion as teacher in a parochial Rchool of the Lutheran Church, if offered to me. lf I should not continue my �tudies to the end of the course, except for a reason sanctioned by the faculty, or if, after graduation, I turn to some other occupa­ tion but that of schoolteaching, I promise to make such re­ turns to the treasury of the college for board and tuition as may be considered equitable

General Information.

DR. MARTIN LUTHER COLLEGE was erected A. D. 1884 by the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Minnesota and other States, and is situated in the southwestern part of the city of New Ulm, Minn. The location is healthy and very beau­ tiful, as the college-building is surrounded by a fine natural park and lies upon a wooded bluff, which affords a charming view of the town and of a portion of the valley of the Min­ nesota River.

The Teachers' Seminary, under the control of the Gene­ ral Evangelical Lutheran Synod of \Visconsin, Minnesota, Michigan and other States, offers a thorough education in pedagogical theory and practice. Any information concern­ ing it may he obtained by addressing the undersigned pre­ sident of the institution.

The Preparatory Department· comprises three classes, with a curriculum designed to furnish adequate preparation to those who wish to enter the Seminary. The work of the two lowest classes is equivalent to that done in the corre­ sponding classes of colleges generally. It will qualifiy a student to enter the third preparatory class of a college.

To these two departments, there has been added an Academy, or High-school, which is intended to afford an opportunity for obtaining an advanced education, to those who feel the necessity of a better preparation for the business of life than the common school can offer. There can be no doubt as to the desirability of such an advanced course, for the future farmer not less than for the business man that is to be. Knowledge is power, and a treasure to the person who posesses it. Being a religious institution, Dr. Martin Luther College, besides giving the assurance of thorough instruction, is a desirable school by reason of its professedly Christian character.

All courses of the institution are open to persons of both sexes. The Faculty requires every pupil entering the Academy to select a sufficient number of branches for study to keep him, or her, adequately and profitably employed.

DR. l\IARTIN LUTHER COLLEGE,

25

Pupils coming from Lutheran congregations are expected to take religious instruction with the class to which they may be assigned.

Besides furnishing testimonials of good moral character, pupils must be able to read and write fluently, in English or German, and must have mastered the four elementary operations in arithmetic.

Every pupil is required to be duly respectful to the members of the Faculty and, in general, to be irreproachable in his deportment. By entering the institution, a pupil agrees to observe carefully all rules that are, or may be, made by the Faculty. Particular attention is called to the following requirements: Every pupil is held respomdble for damage done to whatever property of the institution he, or she, may use.

As a guarantee, $1.00 must be deposited with the president on entering the institution, this sum to be refunded, less cost ofrepairs for which the pupil may be responsible, when he, or she, leaves the institution.

All inmates of the college-building are required to attend the regular day-services of the Lutheran Church at this place, unless they are excused from this rule by special arrangement.

All mail-matter directed to those who lodge in the college-building must pass through the hands of the president, or his representative; they must therefore be delivered to him by the post-master. Parents or guardians who put a boy to board in our college, do thereby consent to the arrangement above described, as do also those pupils who, being of age, enter the college household by their own free will. This rule is intended as a protection against the practices of certain firms who use the mails for ~isseminating dangerous and immoral reading-matter, particularly among college-students.

Every pupil is required to attend classes regularly. For every recitation missed, excuse must be duly made to the teacher of the class in question.

26

DR. l\IARTIN LUTHER COLLEGE.

The appointment of a spe0ial teacher for the business department has resulted so very satisfactorily that we may safely assert that our institution affords most desirable faci­ lities for pursuing those studies which are commonly re­ garded as necessary for any business man. vVe bespeak particular attention for the Pernin System of Phonography which we teach. This system of ohorthand was awarded a diploma at the World's Fair in Chicago, for ease of learning, brevity, and legibility. l t is not in any way related to the old systems which require an inmeasurable amount of energy and time in their acquisition, as it may be learned by any person of average ability. It has no positions, no shaded characters, and expresses all vowels in an unmistakable manner. In the past year, one of our pupils, besides pur­ suing an extensive course of study, succeeded in acquiring, within three months, a speed of 100 words a minute, and was able to read his notes easily. There is hardly another acquirement which can be considered so universally useful as even moderate skill in this system of shorthand.

To derive adequate benefit from attending a college, pupils should not cut their stay too short, nor confine their work to the business branches proper. If exclusive atten­ tion is given to the latter, a fair degree of proficiency may usually, indeed, be attained within the space of about five months. But book-keeping, shorthand, typewriting and arithmetic do not furnish a complete education for anyone, without the addition of such studies as language, geography, history, natural sciences, and religion. \Ve therefore strongly urge all young people who are able to attend our school to arrange for at least a year's stay, in order to obtain more than merely a certain amount of mechanical skill, which, tho desirable enough in itself, ought not to form the chief end of study. To broaden the mind by acquiring valuable ideas is the proper aim of young people's life. For this reason, all our courses, except those of the business depart­ ment, are laid out so as to occupy the pupil throughout the school-year. A programme can be easily arranged for any pupil, to give profitable employment for a ten months' stay.

But the business branches tshorthand, typewriting, book­ keeping and commercial arithmetic) are taught mostly by

individual instruction, so that a pupil may enter this de­ partment at almost any time.

RATES OF TUITION. l. Pupils entering in September, with the expressed intention of staying through the school-year, pay $40.00 by installments as follows: $15.00 in September, $13.00 in Jan­ uary, and $12.00 in April. If tuition for the entire year is paid in September, the rate is reduced to $36.00. Such pupils may take up any branch of study taught in the college, excepting shorthand with typewriting, and instrumental music. Shorthand and typewriting will cost $25.00 extra, for a term of five months. Music lessons taken with the regular classes are eharged for by the regular term, as follows: Piano or pipe-organ $5 00, violin $4.00. Individual music lessons may be had at the rate of 12 piano or organ lessons for $7.50, and 12 violin lessons for $5.00. The above rates include the use of piano or organ for practice.

3. Pupils entering in January, pay $18.00 for the period ending March 31st, with the same privileges and re­ strictions as above.

5. Pupils desirmg to get a working knowledge of type­ writing, without shorthand, are charged $10.00 for the use of the machines.

6. Pupils preferring to prepay for briefer periods, may do so at the rate of $16.00 for each 2 months; they may then enter any course, individual music lessons alone ex­ cepted.
