Summer Class in Chemistry.

I propose to give private instruction in Chemistry—theoretical
and practical—during the coming summer vacation, beginning
July 5th and ending September 5th.

The subject matter of the course will be selected in accordance
with the special wants of the individual students.

The following objects are among those which have in past
years rendered this course useful:

1st. Special training in particular departments of practical
Chemistry—e. g., the analysis of iron ores, iron and steel, the examination
of fertilizers and materials for their manufacture, toxicological
and sanitary Chemistry for students or for practitioners
of medicine, etc.

2d. Special preparation for the duties of teachers of Chemistry,
on the part of those seeking positions as such, or of those
who already hold appointments but have not had the opportunity
of gaining experience in lecture-room work, experiments of demonstration,
etc.

3d. Review of the general principles of Chemistry on the
part of those who have already studied the subject, as in the case
of candidates for examination before the Medical Boards of the
United States Army and Navy, of the Marine Hospital Service,
and of the several States.

4th. Preparation for study in the regular classes of the University
on the part of those who intend coming here in the following
session.

The fee will be $50, payable at the beginning of the course.
Laboratory material consumed, and apparatus broken, will be
charged for at their actual cost, the expense under these heads
amounting usually to a few dollars, say from $5 to $10.
