Washington Training College
The plans for this course are now taking definite form, and it has been arranged to conduct this special work in such a manner that any one taking it will be able also to take any one of the regular classes of the school. This will involve an afternoon or evening session, as the morning hours are fully occupied with the regular class periods; but this plan will be advantageous in several ways, and will therefore in all probability be determined upon. Should there be those who do not care to take any of the regular studies, they would have the forenoon to spend in study, or in canvassing or holding Bible studies in the city; or if any wish to engage in manual labor, this time may be thus employed. The school has much hard work which it can offer to young men. The charges for this special work will be the same as those for the regular classes,—four dollars for a school month of four weeks for tuition alone; or if any one wishes to receive board, room, and tuition, as our regular students do, the rate will be eighteen dollars a month, and one hour of manual work daily, or seven hours a week, the time to be devoted to work as may best serve the general interests. The cost of books will not necessarily be large, a few dollars being sufficient to meet this and all other incidental expenses excepting car fare. It might be well for those who are planning to take the course to make inquiry of the nearest transportation agent of the General Conference, as undoubtedly some would be entitled to the reduced rates which are offered by the railroad companies to ministers and missionaries. Any transportation agent can give information to any individual as to whether he would be entitled to such courtesy, and if so, can arrange to secure the desired rates. The printed announcement is now off the press, and will be furnished free upon application. This circular gives quite full information; but if any further information be desired about any feature of the proposed course, the same will be given by correspondence.
