INDIANA. The past year has been the most prosperous and profitable the school has ever known. The attendance has been much larger, the work more thoroughly and systematically done, and the results much more satisfactory. That the instruction given here does meet the wants of the masses is proven by the following facts: 1. The demand for teachers trained at this school is greater than can possibly be supplied. 2. The continued growth of the school-the attendance the present term being at least 200 greater than that of the corresponding term of last year. While the work has been thus eminently successful and the school has grown to be THE LARGEST NORMAL SCHOOL IN THE LAND Yet we feel that in many ways improvement may be made. We are pleased to announce that we have secured the services of Mr. and Mrs. O. P. Kinsey, of Lebanon, Ohio. They have taken a half interest in the institution. They have returned from an extended tour through Europe, and have commenced their work with that characteristic zeal and earnestness, which have won for them their enviable reputation as teachers. Their best recommendation is that hundreds of their former students are following them here. Mrs. KINSEY has assumed full management of the boarding and rooms of the LADIES'. DEPARTMENT. Mr. KINSEY has charge of Literature and History, and the special management of the Library. AN IDEA OF THE SCHOOL MAY BE HAD FROM THE FOLLOWING: DEPARTMENTS. Preparatory, Teachers', Business, Collegiate, Engineering, Musical, Fine Art, Phonographic, Telegraphic, Penmanship, Elocutionary, Law, Medical, Phrenological, and Review. Number of instructors, 23. Number of daily recitations, not including those in extra branches, 92. Number of Literary and Debating Societies, 56. The work in these societies is especially beneficial, as the improvement of the members indicates. The "Star," "Crescent," and "Philomathean," the permanent societies of the school, are doing an independent, original literary work truly meritorious. Cost of Apparatus and Library, $8,000. BUILDINGS. Cost of College buidings and grounds, $50,000. Cost of East and South Halls and furniture, $22,234.24 Cost of Flint's Hall and grounds, $14,450. Value of Garrison's Hall, $5,605. Cost of two smaller buildings erected for self-boarding, $2,100. Cost of Commercial Hall, $15,000. Cost of Stiles Block, $12,000. This is heated by steam. Cost of Orange Block, $5,000. This is heated by a furnace. Buildings containing more than 100 rooms will be erected during the present sumkier. Arrangements are made for a NEW SCHOOL BUILDING which will contaiu a room for the NORMAL BOOKSTORE, LIBRARY ROOM, SCIENCE ROOM, FINE ART HALL, MUSIC HALL, and a number of rooms for Instruments. We own not only the college buildings, but the boarding houses as well; this, together with the fact that the institution is free of debt, enables us to afford better accommodations, and at LOWER RATES THAN ANY OTHER SCHOOL IN THE LAND! Good board and well furnished room at $1 70 to $1.90 per week. Tuition $8.00 per term. Students can enter at any time, select their own studies, and advance as rapidly as they may desire. Exten ive preparations are being made for the Fall Term, which will open August 30th, All of the buildings will be thoroughly refitted and refurnished. With the buildings we now have, and those being erected, there will be ample room for all, so that hereafter all the expenditures will be in the way of apparatus, library, etc. With Mr. and Mrs. Kinsey added to our present corps of instructors, and with the improvements in the way of library, apparatus and furnishing, we feel that we have never been so well prepared to enter upon the work of a new year. Fall Term will open Angust 30th, Winter Term November 8th, Second Winter Term January 17th, Spring Term June 6th. Before deciding where to attend school, send for our large 60-page catalogue.
