Winter Term at the Foreign Mission Seminary

THE winter term at the Foreign Mission Seminary, which begins December 14, affords special opportunities to those who desire to spend but a short time in school. Young ministers and other workers will receive great benefit from vigorous intellectual work in school, even though it be but twelve weeks. Several new classes will commence at the opening of the term, and other classes are of such character that students can easily enter.
Those who desire work in Bible and history will find several classes from which to choose: Prophetic study, Bible doctrines, New Testament epistles, church history, ancient history, etc.
Those interested in the problem of missions will appreciate the class commencing in missionary methods and mission problems.
Much attention is given in the Seminary to English. Special classes will be organized, should there be sufficient demand for them.
There has been some call for a beginning class in Spanish. We are prepared to offer excellent work in this language by a native teacher.
The classes in elementary medicine and nursing are all one-term subjects. Postgraduate nurses who come well recommended can begin their emergency-hospital work at once. The classes offered during the second term are general diseases, hydrotherapy, tropical hygiene, diseases of the eye, ear, nose, and throat, skin diseases, physical diagnosis, Swedish and mechanical gymnastics.
Special attention is given to the training of ministers and Bible workers, by study in classes and practical work in the field.
A very attractive feature of our work is the daily lectures on Denominational Organization and Work, and the Bible vs. Human Philosophy.
In the line of music, we have a sight-singing class commencing, chorus work, private lessons in voice, piano, and organ.
Excellent opportunity is offered to learn dressmaking, printing, or cooking.
Now is the time to enter for the winter term.
