The readings for October are: History of Greece,[D] vol. 2, by Prof. T. T. Timayenis, parts 7 and 8; Chautauqua Text-Books—No. 5, Greek History, by Dr. J. H. Vincent; Primer of American Literature, by C. F. Richardson; required readings in THE CHAUTAUQUAN. * * * * * Let the members of the Class of ’83 who were not graduated in August, now begin to read up the required books, and be ready for graduation in 1884. * * * * * In the earliest announcement of the course of study for 1883-84, the little Chautauqua Text-Book No. 22, on Biology, was given. Many members suppose that this is the substitute for “Easy Lessons in Vegetable Biology,” an altogether different book. The price of Chautauqua Text-Book No. 22 is 10 cents; the price of “Easy Lessons in Vegetable Biology” is (in the cheapest edition) 25 cents. If they will return to Phillips & Hunt, 805 Broadway, New York, the Chautauqua Text-Book and 15 cents additional, they will forward the “Easy Lessons in Vegetable Biology.” * * * * * Students in the Class of 1887 should have Chautauqua Text-Books Nos. 4 and 5, English and Greek History. They have already been read by the other classes. Price, 10 cents each. * * * * * Members of the C. L. S. C. are earnestly urged to read Chautauqua Text-Book No. 24, Canadian History. This should have been required in the earlier lists. * * * * * All members of the C. L. S. C. should examine carefully the “Popular Education” circular which appears in this number of THE CHAUTAUQUAN, to ascertain if they have the complete list of books for the year. * * * * * By the payment of one dollar, all graduates of the C. L. S. C. will be entitled to all communications from the central office for four years, the four white crystal seals, and any additional white seals which they may gain. The one dollar does not, of course, pay for special seals. * * * * * The Chautauqua Hand-Book No. 2—known as the “Green Book”—which contains a full account of the C. L. S. C. work, is now ready. Send a two cent stamp to Miss K. F. Kimball, Plainfield, N. J., and you will receive a copy. * * * * * The Class of 1884 should send in their back reports as soon as possible. It is so much better to get all ready in advance, and not wait until the close of the year, when the general office is crowded, the secretaries busy, and mistakes easily possible. FOOTNOTE: [D] Students of the new class (1887) to be organized this fall, not having read volume 1 of Timayenis’s History of Greece, will not be required to read volume 2, but, instead of volumes 1 and 2 of Timayenis’s, will read “Brief History of Greece.” Price, paper, 60 cents.
