'The Science Course of .the High "Schaoi is designed primarily for the benefit of two classes of stu ldents first, those who expect to complete the High School and find the Language too difficult; 'second, those who expect to have to withdraw from school before completing the course. It is made as practical as possible un ‘der the circumstances. The only difference in the classical and scientific courses is the substitu tion of some practical science for Latin. . The Eighth Grade will study ‘advanced Physiology; the Nineth Botany and Agriculture; the Tenth Bookkeeping, and the Eleventh Mec :anical Drawing or "Stenography. Parents are requested to dis lcuss the courses with the tea~h ers and then before deciding. ' One may change from the classi leal to the scientific at the begin ning of any year, but after the first year one cannot change from the scientific to the classi cal without making up the Latin.
