The guest of the Association at its luncheon was General Edward Anderson, who spoke most entertainingly of his recollections of Lincoln, Grant, Sherman, John Brown and other leaders and incidents of the Civil War period. As President Evans characterized it, it was the genuine source method of instruction by an accomplished speaker. * * * * * Before ordering for the fall be sure to inspect the McKinley Historical Note-Books These note-books consist of the McKinley Outline Maps combined with blank leaves to constitute an historical note-book of 104 pages; the back of each map and every other sheet being left blank for class notes or comment upon the maps.

As a member of the Catalogue Committee in one of our smaller colleges, it has been my privilege the past two years to study catalogues from all parts of the country--perhaps sixty or more. Besides the various general matters noticed, I have naturally turned for information and help to the history courses offered and to the college entrance requirements in history. This survey has given me several definite impressions. The requirements in history are generally not organised as are the departments of English, Latin and Mathematics. Frequently they are not definite in their statements as to just what they wish done. One of our best northern colleges gives four lines to History; over one page to Science; over five pages to English.
