larger animals. The general method is that of comparative anatomy, with special reference to the anatomy of man, this part of the course being directed particularly towards the physiological courses of the University which follow upon it. Philosophical zoology takes the form in this term of a course of lectures on the general theory of organic development, illustrated by a systematic study by lectures and reading of the modern doctrine of the descent of man. Winter, sfiring, and fall terms, full study. Mr. FEANK SMITH (a and b) and Associate Professor SUMMERS (C). Required: Chemistry 1. Art and Design 1 must be taken with this course if it has not been taken previously. 2. This course consists of the first and second terms' work of ZoOlogy 1. It is intended especially to serve as a thorough zoological preparation for General Entomology (Zoology b). Winter and spring terms, full study. Required: Chemistry 1 and Art and Design (see course 1). 3. This course consists of the first and third terms' work of course 1. It is intended to serve as a thorough zoological preparation for Physiology 1, and is especially commended to students contemplating the study of medicine. Winter and fall terms, full study. Required: Chemistry 1 and Art and Design (see Course 1). 4. EMBRYOLOGY.—Lectures, laboratory and reference work. This course begins with a study of the germ cells, and the processes of maturation, fertilization, cleavage, and gastrulation from preparations furnished to the student. The study of the development of the vertebrate form in the chick is then taken up, with preparations of the amphibian embryo for comparison. Instruction is given in methods of preparing embryological material, and of making graphic and plastic reconstructions from serial sections. Hertwig-Marks'1 Embryology of Man and Mammals and MarshalFs Vertebrate Embryology. Winter term, full study. Dr. KOFOID. Required: Zoology 1 or 3. 5. ADVANCED ZOOLOGY.—To students who have had course 1, 2, or 3, an opportunity is offered for a year's work in advanced zoology. It may be closely adapted to the bent and ability of the student. Four main lines of work will, however, be especially provided for: (a) Systematic reading of general zoology (at present Hertwig's Lehrbuch der ZoOiogie), U.—14
