LOCATION

A>*HE INSTITUTE is located so nearly upon the crest
^ J of a commanding ridge that the rain waters from one

/J side of the roof, following the natural water shed,
/ find their destination in the Gulf of Mexico, and
from the other flow onward to the Atlantic.

The elevation of the main building is approximately 1050
feet above the sea level, and from its central tower is had
an inspiring view of the peaks of North Georgia and the
Blue Ridge Mountains. The climate is bracing and
healthful; the drainage naturally perfect, and the water,
the purest freestone, uncontaminated by sewerage.

Decatur is six miles northeast of Atlanta immediately on
the Georgia Railroad.

Its accessibility and nearness to the city of Atlanta,
with its system of railways reaching every portion of the
South Atlantic States, places the Institute within con-
venient reach of every section.

The situation of Decatur, sheltered from the cold winds
of the more northerly section by the Blue Ridge range of
mountains, and yet at an altitude far beyond the malarial
lowlands of the South Atlantic and Gulf States, gives to
the Institute many of the pleasant and beneficial effects of
a delightful health resort. Parents residing in South
Georgia, Florida, South Alabama, Mississippi and other
Gulf States, will find for their daughters an atmosphere
invigorating and bracing, but not severe ; while others
resident in more northerly sections can escape the severities
of a rigorous winter climate without encountering malarial
or enervating influences.

The village has telegraphic, telephonic, postal and
express facilities ; four white churches Presbyterian.
Methodist, Baptist and Episcopalian, with resident pastors.

IQ- Agxes Scott Institute.

It is also the seat of the Donald Fraser High School,
for boys, a preparatory school of high grade and under
superior management. It is located on the opposite side
of the village and over a half mile from the Institute.

The society is educated, refined and religious, and the
founders of this school believe its location to be an ideal
one.

The Georgia Railroad has on sale commutation school
tickets to Decatur at greatly reduced rates from all stations
between Atlanta and Covington.

BuildiQgs.

The Main Building, completed and occupied for the first
time in the fall of 1891, is a massive edifice, simple in
architecture, yet not lacking in impressiveness.

It is constructed of brick, granite and marble ; is one
hundred and ninety-four feet long, fifty-four feet wide and.
four stories high, exclusive of basement, besides the engine
room, electric light plant, laundry and kitchen annexes,
which are apart from the main building.

The entire building is heated and ventilated by the
indirect steam method, and lighted by electricity.

The building contains fifty sleeping apartments, accom-
modating two and four pupils each, and all with outside
windows ; over 500 feet of wide halls, with necessary class
rooms, parlors, ofifices and art studio. The School of
Music occupies the entire fourth floor.

Each floor is supplied with water, bath and toilet rooms,
electric bells and ample hose and fire buckets; the building
and premises arc supplied with water from three wells,
a tank in the tower containing 8,000 gallons, a large spring
near by, and a cistern with a capacity of 30,000 gallons.

A watchman is on duty all night, and his visits at

numerous stations throughout the building and around
the premises are registered by an electric watchman's
clock.

The building stands in the middle of ample grounds with
numerous walks, croquet grounds, swings and tennis courts,
affording abundant opportunity for healthful out-door
exercise.

BoardiQg Department.

This department is under the superintendence of the
Matron, who gives to the housekeeping her constant per-
sonal attention.

The table is abundantly supplied with wholesome food,
secured from the Atlanta and local markets.

The chambers are unusually large and arranged so as to
admit abundant sunlight, and in their construction especial
attention was given to securing perfect ventilation. The
furniture and appointments are home-like and comfortable,
and the building carpeted throughout. While luxury has
not been studied, every convenience necessary for health
and comfort has been supplied, and in this respect few
homes in the country are more complete.

A suite of rooms, including bed room, sitting room and
nurse's room, in a retired section of the building on the
second floor, has been set aside and will be used exclusively
as an Infirmary in cases of sickness. The Infirmary is in
charge of the Intendant, who is in constant attendance in
cases of illness.

Partial View of Infirmary.

Agnes Scott Insnitute. 15

Dr. Hunter P. Cooper, the attendant Physician, is in
telephonic communication with the Institute, visits the
school periodically, and in cases of illness is summoned
promptly.

The Trustees feel that they can conscientiously assure
parents that in cases of illness their daughters will receive
prompt and skillful medical attention and faithful and
tender nursing, and in every case of serious illness they
will be promptly advised.

The Intendant of the Infirmary is also in special charge
of the two dormitory floors, occupying the second and third
stories of the Main Building. She will at all times rigidly
inspect the rooms of the inmates, see that they are neatly
and properly kept in order, reporting any dereliction to the
Principal.

Each dormitory floor has two large bath and toilet rooms,
supplied with hot and cold water.

The Institute has its own steam laundry, supplied with
all needed appliances, in which all the laundry work of the
Institute, as well as that of the pupils, is done neatly and
cheaply.

The serious danger of the introduction of contagious
and infectious diseases by means of having this work in
various hands throuc-hout the villasce is thus avoided.

Agnes Scott Institute.

Note.

The entering of a pupil in this School shall be deemed a
foi'vial and explicit contract for her to remain nntil the close
of the school year. If withdrawn, no portion of the fees
will be refunded unless withdrawal is necessitated by sick-
ness, the sufficiency of which to be judged of by the Insti-
tute Physician, or for other Providential reasons, to be
judged of by the Board of Trustees.

No deduction will be made for absence, unless caused by
sickness for as long a period as one month.

It is earnestly requested that parents will not interfere
with the studies of their daughters by withdrawing them
during the session to spend a week or so at home. Such
absences seriously interrupt the progress of the pupil, are
positively injurious to the classes thus broken up, and tend
to distract the whole school.

Money for books, music and incidental expenses cannot
be advanced ; a deposit of ten or fifteen dollars should be
made with the Principal at the beginning of each term, an
itemized statement of the expenditure of which will be
rendered.

Books, sheet music, art materials, etc., will be supplied to
boarding pupils ojily at actual cost ; day pupils are conven-
ient to the book stores, and must supply themselves.

Pupils matriculating during the first two weeks of the
term are charged as from th& first day of the term. After
the expiration of two weeks from the first day, they are
charged only from the date of entrance.

The medical fee covers the attendance of the Institute
Physician, nursing and medicines, e.rcept in cases oj pro-
tracted or aggravated sickness.

Agnes Scott Institute. 19

No deduction for any cause will be allowed to pupils
withdrawing during the last four weeks of the session.

The above regulations will be strictly enforced, and pat-
rons are requested not to ask any deviation therefrom.

DiscouQts.

When two or more boarding pupils are entered from the
same family, a discount of ten per cent, on their total bills
is allowed.

When two or more day pupils are entered from the same
family, a deduction of iifty cents per month for each pupil
is allowed.

Pupils paying for the full Literary course and for tzvo
music studies, are allowed a discount of ten dollars for each
term.

Where the discount of ten per cent, is allowed for two
or more pupils from the same family, no other or further
discount is made.

MiQisterial R^ates.

given board and tuition in all regular courses, including
the general privileges of the Institute, /<3r ///r School Year

School, with additional chapters in the History of the
English Language, Diction, Sentences and Versification.

Literature Selections from the works of Keats, Shelley,
Wordsworth, Coleridge, Tennyson, Poe and George Eliot.

The composition work of this year bears largely upon
the work in Literature, with additional subjects assigned
for monthly essays.

Second Year. Trench On Words.

Literature The Prologue, The P'aerie Queen, several of
Shakespeare's Plays, Paradise Lost.

In this year the class studies the History of English

ists being read in class.

Essay work.

Third Year. -Rhetoric Genung's Rhetoric.

Carlyle, Ruskin and Matthew Arnold.

The History of English Literature from the Restoration
Period through the Victorian Age.

FonrtJi Year. (Elective), Selections from the Brownings,
Wordsworth, Coleridge and Matthew Arnold.

The aim of the English course is twofold, viz: To train
pupils to write not only correctly, but in a clear and im-
pressive manner, and to create in them a desire to read
what is good in Enolish and American literature. To gain

Agnes Scott Institute. 27

the desired result in the former, pupils are taught the
principles which govern clear and correct writing, and are
frequently called upon to put these into practice, a number
of essays upon simple subjects, and weekly themes, one
page or more in length, being required.

The aim of the Literature course is to make the student
see what is meant by a study of Literature as opposed to
a cursory or accidental reading. To attain this end, many
of the masterpieces of our mother-tongue are carefully
studied and freely discussed in class. The student is thus
encouraged to acquaint herself first with the authors them-
selves, and to read critical works. At the beginning of
each session, a course of instructive reading, outside of
regular work, is given each class, to be reported upon at
the end of the year.

A number of critical essays are required of the students
through these years.

School of MatF)en)atics.

First Year. Wentworth's Complete Algebra, Involution,
Evolution, Radicals, Quadratic Equations, Ratio, Propor-
tion, Arithmetical and Geometrical Progressions, Choice,
Chance.

Second Year. Plane and Solid Geometry, Wentworth.

Third Year. Algebra continued through Exponential
Theorem. Plane and Spherical Trigonometry (Wentworth).

Fonrtli Year. Algebra completed (elective). Analytic
Geometry (elective). Arithmetic reviewed. Book-keeping

School of Sciences.

First Year. Geology (LeConte) and Mineralogy.
Mineralogy is taught without text books, with a view to'
cultivating a habit of thinking and working by bringing

28 Agnes Scott Institute.

the pupil in contact with facts by personal observation.
Thus a subject usually considered very technical is made
simple and practical, and any pupil of the collegiate depart-
ment is admitted to these exercises without regard to pre-
vious scientific qualifications.

Scxcvid Year. Zoology (Nicholson) and Botany (Camp-
bell).

lltird Year. Physics (Gage).

FonrtJi Year. Chemistry (Williams) and Astronomy
(Young).

It is the aim of this department to teach with clearness
and accuracy both theories and facts. To this end a suit-
able laboratory has been fitted up, affording apparatus
sufficient to illustrate all the various principles of mechan-
ics, physics and optics.

A good three-inch telescope is in use for astronomical
observations; White's Physiological Manikin for the study
of Physiology ; a compound microscope magnifying 600
diamameters for microscopic work in botany. Through the
kindness and generosity of Mr. N. P. Pratt, a mineralogical
cabinet of 300 choice specimens has been recently added
to the department, making it possible to carry on very
thorough work in dynamical and structural geology. The
text- books used are selected with the view of giving all so-
called new topics full share of attention.

Scl^ool of the Bible.

This is a three years' course, two recitations a week. It
forms a necessary part of the graduate courses. The
objects of this course are :

I. To give a connected and systematic knowledge of the
history of the Kingdom of God as revealed in the Bible.
To know these facts in their order and relations is necessary
to any adequate understanding of the Christian religion.

Ac.xES Scott Ixstitute. 31

2. To teach how to study the Bible.

3. To glorify God in exalting and honoring His word.
The Bible is constantly held up as the inspired word of
God and the authoritative revelation of His will.

The methods used to attain these objects are regular
recitations and class room drill, with intermediate and final
written examinations.

The places and events in the history are located ; suffi-
cient contemporaneous history is taught to give a clear
understanding of Biblical history.

The student is also drilled from time to time in the
analysis of Books of the Bible, and in the analysis of
chapters.

The course is arranged as follows ;

First Year. Creation to Kingdom ; Syllabus O. T. His-
tory, Price ; Manual of Biblical Geography, Hurlbut ; Man-
ual of Bible History, Blaikie.

Second Year. Old Testament completed ; same text-
books.

'Uiird Year. New Testament ; Studies in the Book,
Weidner ; Hurlbut and Blaikie, continued ; Stalker's Life
of Paul ; Evidences of Christianity, Alexander.

The Bible itself is the main text-book throughout the
course. Each student should be supplied with a good copy
of the Revised version.

All students in the Preparatory and Collegiate depart-
ments who do not take the regular Bible course are required
to recite one lesson per week in Hurlbut's "Studies in the
Four Gospels."

School of hjistory.

In this department effort is made to arouse in the pupil
enthusiasm and love for the study of History and to teach
the best methods of pursuing it. Free access to the works of

32

Agnes Scott Institute.

the library is allowed to all pupils, and they are encouraged
to avail themselves of this opportunity to do independent
work.

First Year. Oriental Nations and Greece, Myers;
Rome, Myers. Mythology by topical study.

Frequent reference is made to Plutarch's Lives, Ma-
haffey's Old Greek Life, Wilkie's Roman Antiquities, and
to standard historians.

Second Year. Liiportant features of Mediaeval History,
Myers. Outline of Modern European History, Myers.
During the second term especial study is devoted to the
period of the Reformation ; the French Revolution and its
effect upon the political history of Europe ; the Rise of
the German Empire.

Third Year. History of England, Montg/^mery ; His-
tory of France, Montgomery ; Civil Government in the
United States ; History of the United States, reviewed.

Topics on leading characters and important events are
assigned at intervals for especial study. Maps, chronolog-
ical tables and outlines are frequently required, and during
the third year there is a weekly lesson in current events.
Pupils are advised to study an elementary history of
Greece, of Rome, and of England before undertaking the
course prescribed above.

Sch)Ool of Mental and Moral Sciences.

The course of study in this school occupies two years,
and is not taken up until the thiid or Junior year of the
pupil, and is divided as follows :

First Year. Psychology, Hopkins ; Logic ; Pedagogy.

Second Year. Ethics, Hopkins ; Pedagogy.

Lectures, discussions and library work will be combined
with the study of the text-books.

Agnes Scott Institute. 33

School of Latin.

Appreciating the value of the mental discipline to be
obtained by a thorough mastery of the principles of the
language, students are required to study the characteristics
of style, and the dependence of the English language upon
the Latin. Books of reference treating upon the contempo-
raneous history and literature of each author, are supplied in
the library of the Institute, and these are used under the
direction of the teacher of this department. The entrance
examinations serve the purpose of testing the applicant's
knowledge of the forms and syntactical structure of the
language, and she will be expected to answer general ques-
tions upon the passages selected for translation.

First Year. Caesar, Books I-IV.

Special attention is given to Etymology and Syntax, and
to the study of Geography and History as related to the
text.

Second Year. Virgil, yEneid, Books I-VI. Latin Prose
Composition.

With the study of this year are added Mythology, Versi-
fication, and the various peculiarities of poetical construc-
tion, including the rules of prosody, and the scanning of
dactylic hexameter. Written abstracts of selected portions
of the story are required, and attention is also given to the
rhetorical figures of the poem.

Third Year. Cicero's Orations ; Horace ; Selected Odes
and Epistles. Latin Prose Composition continued.

In translation, accuracy of expression is required, in
order that the author's meaning may be expressed in good
English. Idiomatic peculiarities are carefully studied.

Foiirth Year.~Uvy, Book XXL, Tacitus, Germania,
Agricola or De Amicita.

German is used as far as practicable as a means of con-
versation in the class room. Chief attention is paid the
first year to reading the language with ease and to acquir-
ing a knowledge of the idiom. The second year the aim
is mastery in translation and composition. The reading
of the third year is combined with a critical study of the
lan^uasfe and its literature.

in physical culture.

The Institute Gymnasium contains the best apparatus,
including Horizontal and Vaulting Bars, Horse, Flying-
rings, Chest-weights, Clubs, Wands, Dumb-bells, Rings,

advanced classes. , .

Candidates for the higher classes will be examined on the
subjects previously studied by the class which they propose
to enter.

General ExaminatioQS.

In addition to frequent reviews and partial examinations
(usually written), two general examinations will be held
every year.

The first, or ijitcrniediate, at the end of the first term,
and embracing the studies of the term.

The second, or final, at the end of the second term, on
all the studies of the session.

Both of these examinations are conducted in writing, and
are thorough and comprehensive.

Parents are earnestly requested to consult with the Prin-
cipal before excusing their daughters from examinations.

Frequent and unnecessary excuses retard both the intel-
lectual and moral growth.

While these examinations are thorough and comprehen-
sive, they are not of such length as to be irksome and in-
jurious.

The final grade and promotion of the pupil is determined
from the record of daily recitations and examinations, and
thus the student is stimulated to thorough preparation for
the class-room, and also to a permanent acquisition of
knowledge.

{Reports.

Reports of class standing, attendance, conduct, etc., are
impartially prepared and sent to parents or guardians quar-
terly.

44 Agxes Scott Institute.

Scientific or the Classical Course of study receives a di-
ploma with the title " Graduate. ''

A grade mark or percentage of at least 80 in each school
must be obtained to entitle a pupil to a Diploma or to a
Certificate of Proficiency in any particular school, or to pass
the pupil from a lower to a higher class.

receive a Certificate of Distinction.

" THE BLUE LIST."

For the information of parents and the friends of pupils,
there is published and distributed on Commencement Day

tains the names of all pupils who have obtained an average
mark of 80 or higher on their year's work, in their respect-
ive classes, and are consequently passed to the higher
classes.

Those pupils whose average is above 90 are distinguishedy
and their names are printed on " The Blue List " with
numbers preceding, which indicate the order of their class
standing, and they also receive certificates of distinction ;
the others are placed in alphabetical order.

ates, medalists, etc.

Library and Pleading f^oonn.

The library now contains about 1,000 volumes, selected
with care and with a view to the needs of pupils. It in-
cludes works of history, standard fiction, poetry, biography,
travels, essays and treatises upon literature the classics,
Biblical and miscellaneous topics. The Sunday School
library has been selected with extreme care, and is much
read by the pupils. It is the intention of the Trustees to
add to the library constantly, and as rapidly as their means
will allow.

The Reading Room is supplied with a large selection of
choice periodicals, and receives regularly the following
magazines and papers, to-wit:

Harpers Monthly Magazine, Harper's Bazaar, Popular
Science Monthly, The Illustrated London News, Century
Magazine, St. Nicholas, Youth's Companion, The Art
Amateur, The Art Journal, The Journal of Decorative Art,
The Literary Digest, Werner's Voice Magazine, The Etude,
The Chatauquean, Scribner's Magazine, The New York
Observer, The Christian Observer, The Southern Presby-
terian, The Sunday School Times, and others.

All the pupils of the Institute have the privilege of
consulting the books of reference during school hours.

The Library and Reading Room is open to Boarding
Pupils every afternoon, except on Sundays.

Societies

Ihe Mnemosyiiean Society is a literary society organized
in October, i89i,and has a large and active membership.
The object of this organization is to foster a taste for polite

46 Agnes Scott Institute.

literature and to acquire on the part of its members famil-
iarity with standard authors, musicians and artists. Read-
ings, recitations, discussions, essays and musical numbers
constitute its programme. Its members are actively and
successfully engaged in accumulating a library of standard
books. This Society also publishes " TJic Miicniosyncan
Monthly,'' which has a large circulation among the pupils
and friends of the Institute.

Lectures, Concerts, Etc.

A number of lectures upon a variety of topics, such as
foreign travel, literature, science, art, music, etc., are given
at intervals throughout the school year.

These lectures are open to all the pupils of the Institute,
and are delivered at intervals of three or four weeks.

The boarding pupils, invariably under charge of members
of the faculty, have frequent opportunity of attending lec-
tures, concerts, recitals, etc., in Atlanta. The nearness of
Decatur to the city, and the frequent and convenient
schedules on the dummy, electric and Georgia railroads,
make attendance thereon easy and pleasant. Pupils are
thus allowed to enjoy rare and instructive opportunities in
this direction, to be obtained only in large cities. Such
visits are not permitted to interfere with school duties, and
the utmost care is exercised as to the character of the
entertainment, only such being selected as are refining and
instructive.

The Wn) (\ Moore Scholarsl^ip FuQd.

Under the will of the late William A. Moore, a Ruling
Elder in the First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta, the
Institute received in 1892 a legacy of ^5,000.

The will of Mr. Moore provides that "this sum shall be
held as a permanent fund or endowment for the education
at this Institute of worthy girls of Presbyterian parents,
who are unable to provide a collegiate education for their
daughters," the same to be permanently invested and the
interest only to be used.

The scholarships under this fund are annually awarded
by the Trustees, as directed in Mr. Moore's will.

R^eligious peatures

The formation and development of Christian character
constitute one of the great objects of this Institute. The
religious features of the school have, therefore, been very
carefully considered.

The daily sessions are opened with religious exercises
held in the chapel.

The Bible is a text-book, and the Bible course made
necessary to graduation.

The Sabbath is considered the most important day of
the week for spiritual culture, and is devoted entirely to
the religious training of the pupils.

A Sabbath School is conducted by the resident teachers
in the Institute chapel, and all the boarding pupils are
expected to attend.

48 Agnes Scott Institute.

the agnes scott christian band,

constituted of boarding pupils, meets every Sabbath after-
noon. Its object is Christian edification and usefulness.
The exercises are conducted by the members according to
a programme previously arranged by the devotional com
mittee.

Membership in the Band is entirely optional, but nearly
all of the boarding pupils are members.

A weekly prayer meeting, conducted by members of the
Christian Band, is also held every Thursday afternoon.
An increasing readiness throughout the year in voluntary
contribution to the exercises of the meetings has given
evidence of growth in spirituality and earnestness.

All boarding pupils are required to attend church at least
once on Sabbath, when not providential!} hindered.

Social peatures.

The teachers and pupils are members of the same house-
hold and mingle on terms of most intimate social inter-
course, and constant and careful effort is made to develop
and cultivate the social character and graces of speech and
conduct, the ornaments of true womanhood.

Only such restrictions are thrown around the pupils as
are considered important for their health, safety and im-
provement.

Every effort is made to give to the Institute the charac-
ter of a home and to cause the pupils to feel at home.
