sociation is non-sectarian, and invites the co-operation of men of all Christian denominations. It seeks to contribute to the social life of the student body by providing a reading room and a gymnasium-where men may meet and become acquainted, and promote their mental and physical health. In its rooms the daily papers, weekly and monthly magazines, writing materials and various forms of amusement are at the disposal of those who desire them.

The Association makes a special effort to be of service to new men. Its information bureau answers questions which men strange to the school have to ask. It secures desirable boarding places for them and endeavors to obtain employment for such as desire it. In order to enable the freshmen to meet the older students a reception, to which all students are invited, is given early in the year.

The affairs of the Association are managed by a board of officers, elected from the student body, under the supervision of the State Association. A student secretary, who receives a salary in addition to his tuition, is in immediate charge at the building. Weekly religious services are held, at which men of prominence from St. Louis and other places address the students. The organization has been in existence for three years only, and already more than one-half of the men of the institution are enrolled in its membership.

FEES AND EXPENSES.

TUITION.

All fees and charges are payable at the office of the Treasurer in the Administration Building. All checks should be made payable to the order of Washington University.

Each student, before he can register, will be charged a matriculation fee of five dollars, which is payable but once during the course of four years. In addition an annual tuition fee of one hundred dollars will be charged, and this is payable at the beginning of each session.

If, at the end of the session a student shall have left unpaid any portion of his tuition fee, or other expenses he may have incurred, he will not be considered in good standing. In case he is a candidate for the degree, he will not be admitted to the final examinations; or, if he is a member of one of the three lower classes, his grades will be withheld and no certificate of attendance will be issued to him until he shall have discharged his indebtedness to the school.

When a student enters the school and pays the required fees, it is taken for granted that he has given the matter due consideration, and that he is prepared to pursue the course of study prescribed. The Faculty stands ready to perform its part of the work as laid down in the curriculum. For these reasons fees once paid by students cannot, for any cause whatsoever, be refunded or transferred. A student, however, who has paid his tuition fee and for good reason is unable to complete the session, will be given credit for the amount, and upon his return to school at some subsequent time, he will not be required to pay the same fee a second time.

LABORATORY FEES AND OTHER CHARGES.

At the beginning of the session special fees are charged to cover the cost of materials and apparatus used in the laboratories. No portion of these fees is refunded. Students are further required to make good any loss resulting from damage

or breakage of apparatus. Students must supply their own padlocks for the lockers provided for clothing and apparatus, and the school will not assume any responsibility for any loss of property.

No fees will be charged for demonstrators' or hospital tickets, or for graduation.

Each student in the first year is required to pay to the Treasurer of the University eight dollars ($8.00) to cover breakage in the laboratories and as guarantee for the use of a skeleton. Each student of the second and third years will be required to pay to the Treasurer five dollars ($5.00) to cover breakage in the laboratories. This sum, less the amount charged against it for breakage, will be returned at the end of each year. Tickets must be taken out and paid for at the beginning of the session.

FIRST YEAR.

Chemical Laboratory. A laboratory fee of five dollars will be charged in General Chemistry and Qualitative Analysis. The average additional charge for breakage is about three dollars.

Anatomical Laboratories. A fee of five dollars will be charged for the use of anatomical material issued for dissection. Embryological Laboratory. A fee of two dollars and a half will be charged to cover the cost of material.

Histological Laboratory. A fee of five dollars will be charged for the use of a microscope and for material supplied in Histology. A student will be held responsible for damage to his microscope, or for loss of parts, and will be expected to pay the cost. A student using his own microscope will be charged only three dollars.

An annual rental fee of twenty-five cents will be charged for a locker.

SECOND YEAR.

Bacteriological Laboratory. A fee of five dollars will be charged for the use of a microscope and for material.

FOURTH YEAR.

A fee of one dollar will be charged for material for the courses in operative surgery and in fractures and dislocations. FEES OF ALUMNI, GRADUATES OF OTHER MEDICAL SCHOOLS, AND SPECIAL STUDENTS.

Graduates of the Saint Louis Medical College, of the Missouri Medical College and of the Medical Department of Washington University have a perpetual free admission. The privilege entitles the holder to attend all lectures and clinics. Should he wish to take any course in which laboratory work is given, he will be charged the specified fee.

Graduates of other medical schools will be charged the matriculation fee of five dollars, and a tuition fee of fifty dollars for attendance during a session or for any part of a session. For all courses in which laboratory work is given the specified fees will be charged in addition.

Students who may wish to take special courses of study not covered by any of the above clauses, are requested to make

written application to the Registrar, stating plainly the nature of the work they wish to do and the length of time they expect to be in attendance.

SUMMARY OF EXPENSES FOR THE FOUR YEARS' COURSE.

The actual fees charged for each year's attendance at the school are as follows:

Thus for residence in St. Louis during four annual sessions of thirty-five weeks each, and for attendance at the Medical Department, exclusive of the cost of instruments, clothing, amusements and incidentals, a conservative estimate would be:
