J |li:^jovt on the dDrganuation of $U$UbUx tlnibcisiti) AND OTHER MATTERS PERTAINING THERETO. o*o** To the Senate and the Board oj Oovemors, McMa»ter University : Gentlemen : — The following report on the organ- ization of McMasier University and other matters pertaining thereto, is submitttJ for your considera- tion and action, at your meeting to be held at McMas- ter Hall, VVednescUy, March 6th, 1889. Your attention is especially called to the following points in the report : 1. In the Act incorporating McMaster University, Sec. 12), the power to confer degrees vested in the Senate is conditioner 1 as follows : " Provided the course of study prescribed for M atriculation into tlie said University shall in no essential sense differ or vary from that prescribed for Matriculation into the University of Toronto ; and in respect to any degree which the said Senate has power to confer, the course of instruction and the scope of the examination for such degree shall be as thorough and comprehensive as the courses and examinations for corresponding degrees in the University of Toronto." This makes it impera- tive upon the Senate in prescribing the Curriculum and Courses of instruction for McMaster University to make a careful examination of the Curriculum and Courses of instruction in Toronto University. To assist in making this examination I have given in this r ort in full, from official documents, the Pass Course and three departments of the Honor Course, of the Curriculum of Toronto University. 2. To assist iP making the necessary comparison be- tween the Curriculum and Courses of instruction of the Toronto University, and the proposed Curriculum and Courses of instruction for McMaster University, I have given, in full, on pages 6-9, the Pass Course of To- ronto University, side by side with the proposed Courses for the degree of Bachelor of Arts and of Bachelor of Theology, in McMaster University. I have also given tables showing the number of lectures per week delivered upon the subjects of the Curriculum of Toronto University, and the proposed number of lec- tures pferweel: to be delivered upon the subjects of the proposed Courses for McMaster University. To this is added notes calling attention to points of compari- son, important to be observed, .3. In the oiganization of McMaster University the Theological Department must receive the special con- sideration of the Senate and of the Board of Governors. This is binding upon them in view of the special pro- vision in Mr. McMaster's Will, which is as follows: " That the balance of such income, after payment of all necessary expenses and outgoings connected with the administration of my estate, shall he paid over from time to time as the same shall come to the hands of my said trustees, to the Board of Governors of the said Uni- versity, to be by them employed foi" the purposes of the promotion of the work of the said University, oa and how shall seem to them best ; provided, however, that in order to secure to Toronto Baptist College not less than the amount I am now paying thereto, which I feel bound to provide, ■ihall always be assured thereto, the said Board of (iovernors shall devote not less than Fourteen thousand five hundred dollars per annum of the moneys which shell become payable to them here- under to the proper purposes cf Toronto Baptist Col- lege, as the Faculty in Theology of the said University. " This provision makes it imperative that not less than $14,500 be devoted annually to the "proper purposes of Toronto Baptist College." In interpreting, how- ever, this provision, careful note must be made of what is included in the " proper purposes of Toronto Bap- tist College. " What this includes can be interpreted only by taking into full account the extent and nature of the work done by the College during the lifetime of Mr. McMaster, and under his own immediate supervi- sion as Chairman of the Board of Trustees. The atten- tion of the Senate and of the Board is therefore directed to a careful examination of the work done by the Col- lege when the amount named in the Will was required annually for its support. For information on this point, reference should be made to the Catalogues of the College for 1884-85 and 1885-86. In this connection attention is also directed to a careful comparison of the proposed Course of instruction for Toronto Baptist College afc a department of McMaster University with the Courses contained in the Catalogue of the College for 1885-86. This comparison will make apparent that the proposed Course includfs all the work that was done by the College at the time when the aggregate annual salaries amounted to $14,500. This, without doubt, is the time to which the provision of the Will refers. In examining the proposed Course it will be seen that it contains much more than is included in the former Courses, and must therefore add materially, if adopted, to the amount of work done by the College. 4. Special attention is directed to the facts present- ed in this report with reference to the opening, at an early date, of the Arts Depar' "lent of the University, the erection of an additioi building foi Moulton Ladies' College, and the erection of an additional building in connection with McMaster Kail for the accommodation of the Arts Department. dC^Ltf^" PaM CoBMe In Toronto rnlveMlly for tbe Degree of Bachelor of Art*.

Note l.~The proposed Course for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in McMaster University should be carefully compared with the Pass Course and with the Honor Courses in Toronto University for the same degree. To assist in making this comparison in the case of the Pass Course, t.ie two courses are placed here side by side, and attention is called to the yubjects which must be taken each year In each Course. A similar comparison can easily be made with any one of the three Honor Courses given on pages 4 to 7 of this report. In making this latter comparison reference should specially be made to the notes on the Honor Course, 'age 7. (a) In the First year of the Pass Course of Toronto University, in case German is taken rather than French or Hebrew, and Biology rather than Chemistry or Geology, the subjects which must be taken are : Greek, Latin, History, English, German, Math em tics and Biology. In the First Year of the Course pro- posed for McMaster University, the same subjects, with the addition of the English Bible, must be taken, except History, which is placed in the Second. Third and Fourth years, rather than in the First, Second and Third years. It will be observed that the work pro- posed in Greek, Latin, English, Mathem>>tic8, and Biology is much heavier than the work required in the Pass Course of Toronto University. • (b) In the Second year of the Pass Course of Toronto University, in case German is taken rather than French or Hebrew, and Mental Philosophy rather than Logic, the subjects which must be taken are : Greek, Latin, History, German, Physics and Mental Philosophy. In the proposed Course for McMaster University, all these subjects must be taken, and in addition to these, English and Chemistry. It will also be noted that the work proposed in (!reek, German and Physics is heavier than what is required in Toronto University. (c) In the Third year of the Pass Course of Toronto University, in case Mental and Moral Philosophy and Civil Polity are taken rather than Physics, the sub- jects which must be taken are : Greek, Latin, History, English, Mental and Moral Philosophy and Civil Polity. In this year of the proposed Course for Mc- Master University, Greek or Hebrew or French oi English must be taken. In case Greek is taken, the subjects which must be taken are : Greek, Latin, History, Mathematics, Mental and Moral Philosophy, Science of Education, Civil Polity and the English Bible. This includes all of the subjects of the Third year of Toronto University except English. It in- cludes also in addition to these subjects. Mathematics, the Science of Education and the English l^ible. (d) In the Fourth year of the Pass Course of Toronto University, the subjects which must be taken are : Greek, Latin, P]nglish, Physics, Logic and Civil Polity. In the proposed Course for McMaster Uni- versity, in case Greek is taken rather than Hebrew or French or English, the subjects which must be taken are : Greek, Latin, History, Physics, Mineralogy and 11 (leolottv, Logic, Science of Education, Civil Pohty, and Kvidencea of Christianity. This includes all of the. subjects of the Pass Course of Toronto University ex- cept Enclish. It includes also in addition to these subjects. History, Mineralogy and Geology, Science of Education and Evidences of Christianity. (e) A careful study of each author in the English of each year in the proposed Course for McMaster Uni- versity will be required, and authors marked with an asterisk will be critically studied. Note 2.— The following suggestions should be carefully noted regarding the relation of the work re- quired in the present Course in Toronto Baptist College to the work required for the Degree of lUchelor of Arts in Toronto University, and also to the work required in the proposed Course for the Degree of Bachelor of Theology in Toronto Baptist College as a department of McMaster University. ia) The following subjects, which are a part of the present Course of Toronto Baptist College, are allowed as options in the Course for Bachelor of Arts in Toronto University, namely : Hebrew, New Testament Greek, Biblical Literature, Church History and Apologetics. In addition to these optional subjects the following in the present Course of Toronto Baptist College are also included in the University Courses, namely : Mental Philosophy, Moral Philosophy or Ethics, Rhetoric and English Literature. It will be seen from these facts that the only subjects in the present Course of Toronto Baptist College not included in the Course in Arts in Toronto University are : Systematic Theol- ogy, Pastoral Theology, Honiiletics, English Bible and Hebrew and Greek Exegesis. (b) The proposed Course for the Degree of Bachelor of Theology, in Toronto Baptist College, includes all the subjects of its present Course. This may be veri- fied by an examination of the two Courses. In addi- tion to this, the proposed Course includes also all of the subjects of the Pass Course of Toronto University with the exception of Latin in the Seconci, Third and Fourth years. Civil Polity in the Third year, and Logic and Civil Polity in the Fourth year. This may also be verified by referring to the two Courses, and taking into account the options allowed. In the place o." the Latin, Civil Polity and Logic an additional Natural Science is taken and the Science of Education. To this is also added Hebrew and Greek Exegesis, Systematic Theology, P-storal Theology, Apologetics and Homiletics. (c) It must here be noted that the Course for Bachelor of Theology is to be followed by a Course of advanced studies in Theological subjects for the Degree of Master of Theology. It should also be noted that m case the examinations for the proposed Course for Bachelor of Arts have been passed with Hebrew as the optional subject in the Third and Fourth years, the Course for Bachelor of Theology can be completed bv attending one additional year of lectures. On the otliBi haua, m cabc the Ijcgicc ui ijaincio. ••. , gj. has been taken first, one year's additional lectures in Arts subjects will complete tlie Course tor Bachelor of Arts. (d) From a careful comparison of the proposed Course for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts, and for the Degree of Bachelor of Theology with the Pass and Honor Courses of the Toronto University, it may be objected that the work proposed is more than can be done properly in four years. It may, perhaps, be granted that this objection is well taken in view of ex- isting conditions with reference to University educa- tion. But the am wer to the objection is not to lessen the work proposed, but to raise the standard of Matriculation, and supply the students during their Undcsrgraduate Course with proper condition*-, do do at least the amounted work required in the pro- posed courses. With such conditions supplied the average student will be found equal to the work proposed, and young men with superior preparation will be found able to carry additional work.^ Vot such, provision will be made, under the direction and with the approval of the Faculty, to pursue advanced work in one or more subjects. Notes on the following Tables. Note 3.— The comparisons suggested in the fore- going notes have reference to the subjects included in the Curriculum of Toronto University and in the pro- posed curriculum for McMaster University. ihe Charter, however, as will be seen by referring to cections 12 and 18, requires a comparison also of the courses of instruction, by which 'nust be meant the courses of lectures delivered ^nd of the number ol professors employed. The following tables, with the accompanying suggestions will furnish the data tor making this comparison. It must, however, be here observed that it was found very difficult to obtain the required information regarding the courses oi lectures delivered on the Honor subjects in the curriculum of Toronto University, as will be seen by the following letter from the Registrar of the College :— University of Toronto, Registrar's Office, Dec. 10th, 1888. Dear Sir : The Calendar of University College, which you have, gives a time-table of Pass lectures only, as m view of the fact that twenty-seven Professors, or lecturers are engaged in lecturing on the work of the various courses, it was found impossible to construct a perma- nent time-table of all lectures. The Calendar contains a list of the subjects in which instruction is given, and the Council deemed it advisable to leave it to the vari- ous Professors and lecturers to arrange with their classes the hours for lectures, and the number of lec- tures necessary to cover the ground. It is, therefore, not competent for me to make such a return of lectures as you desire. Yours faithfully, i rt»o / E^ Rev. Dr. MoVicar, 30 Avenue Road, Toronto. H. H. Lan(!TON. 12 (a)— Table A shows the number of Lectures per week upon the subjects of a Pass Course in the Uni- versity of Toronto for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, and proposed to be delivered upon the subjects of the proposed Courses for McMaster University, for the Degrees of Bachelor of Arts, and Bachelor of Theology.

In Physics the Calendar gives four lectures per week, in the Second, Third and Fourth years. These lectures, however, occupy in each year only a part of the session. The number of lectures given in tbe table represent the average number per week, in case the lectures were continued through the entire session. It must also be noted, that the number cf lectures given in the tabic, assumes that the student has elected :. " German, rather than French or Hebrew ; Biology, rather than Chemistry or Geology ; Mental Philosophy of the Second Year, rather than Logic ; and Mental and Moral Philosophy of the Third Year, lather than Physics." The number of lectures the student must attend is not changed in any way by the options he may elect. (/>) In the proposed course for Bachelor of Arts in McMaster University, all the subjects in the First and Second years must be taken. In the Third and Fourth years only two languages are required. The Latin must be one of these and for the other Greek or He- brew or French or English must be taken. In the table it is assumed that the English has been elected. (c) In the proposed course for Bachelor of Theology no options are allowed ; hence the student must attend all the lectures as given in the table. Note 4. — As stated in Note 3, ii. has been found difficult to procure accurate information as to the number of lectures delivered upon the Honor Subjects of the Curriculum of Toronto University. Informa- tion upon this point has, however, been obtained from what is believed to be reliable sources. In Ta'ile B full credit is therefore given for all lectures delivered upon Honor Subjects. fa) TaMe B shows the number of Lectures per week delivered upon Honor Classics, Mathematics, and Metaphysics, and upon all of the Pass Subjects of the Curriculum of Toronto University.

The additional lec- tures on the subjects of tlie proposed courses, on account of options, are: Third Year, Greek, French and English, six ; and Fourth Year, Greek, Hebrew, French and English, nine. (c) Here it will be observed that, allowing twelve lectures per week as the average work of one Professor, not more than eleven Professors will be required to deliver the one hundred and twenty-eight lectures per week on the subjects of the proposed courses for Bach- elor of Arts and for Bachelor of Theology in McMaster University. 14 Notes on Toronto Baptist College Beforo submitting recommendations for your consid- eration and action regarding the opening of the Arts Department, attention must be called to some tacts in reference to the present and prospective condition of Toronto Baptist College. There are thirty-nine students attending theological lectures the present session. Of these, five are in the Course for University graduates, thirteen in the four- year Course with Hebrew and Greek, fourteen in the three-year English Course, and seven are not in any Course. Regarding these thirty-nine students the following should be noted : (a) The five TTni-.ersity graduates have been admitted on their University diploma. (b) Of the thirteen in the Course with Hebrew and Greek two have matriculated in Arts, six have done work equivalent to what is required for mati iculation in Arts, the other five he ve not done work equivalent to this. (c) Of the fourteen in the English Course ten have done work equivalent to the f^nglish required for ma- triculation in / rts, four have not done such work. (rf) Of the seven irregular students, their prepara- tion is not sufficient to admit them to any of the Courses of the College. («) From the facts just stateJ it will be seen that at the present time there are only twenty-three students in attendance upon lectures who have, according to the standard laid down on pages 29 and 30 of the Cal- endar for 1888-9, attained an equivalent to the qualifi- cations necessary to enter regularly the Courses of the College. In this connection it must, however, be noted that the standard for admission to the Courses of the College the present session is much higher than was required in any former session. (/) In view of the wide difierence in literary prep- aration and mental training of the students attending lectures, as appears from the above facts, it is impos- sible to adant instruction properly to the vrantc of the classes. A considerable proportion, therefore, of the students fail to leceive the benefit they should from the lectures they attend. This state of things is destruc- tive to the best interests of the College It of necessity makes it impossible to do first-class work. Under • such circumstances, if justice is done to those wh-j enter the classes without proper preparation, the stronger and well prepared class of young men must suffer loss. (r/) It need scarcely be added that if this condition of things be continued, the College must of necessity fail to give to the ministry of our denomination the advantages which ought to be given to them. After a careful study of this whole subject, it is evident to me that Toronto Baptist College must be placed substan- tially upon tl'e basis proposed in the following recom- mendations if it is to serve the purpose for which it was founded : 16 RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS. Having given the most careful consideration to the various educational interests placed undf^r your charge and beint; fully convinced oi the importance to tho tu- ture ricoe«3 of these interests, of wise, dennite and promp lotion, at the present time, I deem it my duty to suWic tor your favorable consideration and action recommendations and suggestions touching all of theee interests. Recommendation I.— That the courses of instruc- tion for the Arts Department and for lorouto Baptist College, as a department of the University, given on pages eight to eleven of this report be adopted and come into effect at the beginning of the College year of 1889-90. In considering this recommendation the following should be noted : (a) The course proposed for Bachelor of Theolo:^ is to be followed by an a-'vanced course of two years for the Degree of Master of Theology, and an addi_ tional course of two years for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. In the advanced course for Master ot Theology, students will be required to pursue special and original lines of investigation under the direction of the Professors in Exegetical Theology, Historical Theology, Dogmatic Theology, and Practical Theology. The course proposed for Bachelor of Arts is also to be followed by advanced courses for the degrees ot Master of Arts, Doctor of Philosophy and Doctor of "(M Students entering upon any one of these ad- vanced courses will be required tc give clear and satis- factory evidence that they have acquired such mental discipline as will enable them to undertake with ad- vantage the work of independent and original luves- tieation. Men who have not completed an Arts or Theological Course will be admitted into any of these advanced courses, but the Degree of ^Master or Doctor will not be conferred upon any but such as have pro- ceeded regularly to the Degree of Bachelor. (c) On the subjects prescribed for each of these ad- vanced courses short courses of lectures will be deli- vered which will serve to place before the students in a clear and forcible manner the best methods ot con- ducting the investigations undertaken, the points which should receive special attention, the aids which should be called into requisition, and the proper conditions and necessary limits of the lines ot inves- tigation pursued. .4. t (d) The number of lectures on any one subject ot the proposed advanced courses is not to exceed twenty, hence all the lectures on the subjects of any one year of any of these couraea will be delive ed m not to ex csed seven weeks. The students pursuing these ad- vanced courses, will therefore only require to be m residence in f.ie University seven weeks each year, making it possible for men who may have entered upon the active duties of life to continue their studies for one of the higher degrees. ip) The lectures upon the subjects of the proposed advanced courses are to be delivered by the Professors who lecture upon the subjects of the under-graduate courses. That this should be done is necesea^, not chiclly for the sake of economy, but to secure eflic ;ent work in the lower courses. Any professor who lec- tures from year to year upon the same subjects in an undergraduate course, and who fails to continue his own investigations even far beyond the limits of the proposed advanced courses, will soon become ineffici- ent and powerless in moulding the life and character of the students to whom he lectures in these under- graduate courses. The preparation and delivery of a course of trom fifteen to twenty lectures each year on some advanced branch of the subjects daily discussed in giving instructions in the under-graduate courses is necessary upon the part of every professor who will keep himself in effective relation to his work and to his pupils. Recommendation II. — That during the College Year of 1889-90, lectures be delivered only upon the first year of each of the courses proposed, together with such additional theological subjects as may be necessary to enable students who are now in the Col- lege to complete the courses on which they have entered; during 1890-91, only upon the first and second years, with necessary additional theological subjects ; during 1891-92, only upon the first, second and third years ; and during 1892-93 and onwards, upon all of the sub- jects of each of the courses proposed. In considering this recommendation the following points should be noted : (a) The total number of lectures per week required to carry into effect this recommendation will be as fol- lows : For the College Year of 1889-90, fifty -eight ; for 1890-91, seventy; for 1891-92, seventy -seven ; and for 1892-93 and onwards, one hundred and twenty -eight. (h) The number of professors required tc carry into effect this reconimendation depends, first, upon the range of subjects each professor is competent to under- take, and second, upon the number of lectures he is required to dp'iver each week. Assuming, however, the competency of the professors to undertake the sub- jects and that each professor deliver an average of twelve lectures per week, it is evident from the state- ment made in (a), that seven professors will be able Hi to do the work required for 1889-90, for 1890-91 and for 1891-92. (c) From what has been stated in (t*) and (b) it is evident that the present Faculty with an additional f>ofe8aor, who will lecture on Latin tnd Greek, will be uUy able to do all the work required for 1889-90 and 1890-91 ; and with a second additional professor all the work for 1891-92. At the beginning of 1892-93 the full Arts Faculty will be required, as the lectures on all the subjects of the two courses will commence at that time. The following scheme of lectures will serve to show how the work for 1889-90, 1890-91 and 1&91-92 can be distributed among a limited number of professors as suggested.

This is unavoidable, on account of the transition from the present condition of things to University work proper. Where this, however, occurs, it is proposed to arrange courses of lectures for the Professors in Moulton College, *The number after each subject denote the number of [.ectures per week to be delivered upon the subject throughout the College year. 17 Kkcommkndation III.— That nineteen Chairj of In- struction be, at present, established in the University, and that the coui-ses of lectures upon the subjects of these Chairs be delivered by twelve Professors, who shall be appointed, and who shall enter upon their du- ties as hereinafter suggested. C/iairx in the Arts Di'partment. 1. Philosophy and Evidences of ("bristianity. 2. Latin Language and Literature. 3. (Jlreek Language and Literature. 4. Modern Languages and Literatures. 5.

Chairs in Toronto Baptist College. 1. Homiletics, Pastoral Theology and Church Polity. 2. Hebrew and Cognate Languages. 3. New Testament and Patristic Greek. 4. Systematic Theology. 5. Historical Theology. 6. English Bible. 7. Biblical Introduction. 8. Apologetics. In considering this recommendation the followini< points should be carefully noted : (a) By referring to table A, page Mi, of this report, it will be seen that twenty-nine lectures per week of the Course proposed for Toronto Baptist College, belong also to the Arts Course. Hence the work of the pro- fessors who lecture upon the subjects of the Chairs of Instruction in Toronto Baptist College is supplemented from the Arts Department, by the work of three addi- tional professors, giving to the students of Toronto Baptist College much better advantages than were given to them when the aggregate annual salary paid by Mr. McMaster was sixteen thousand tive hundred dollars. It should also be observed at this point that the course of instruction now proposed contains ex- actly the same tiieological subjects, as will be seen by referring to the Catalogue 1884-85, as were contained in the courses of instruction at the time when this aggregate annual salary was paid, and that Mr. Mc- Master gave, at that time, to those courses, his unqua- lified endorsement ; and further, that those courses were the courses of instruction in Toronto Baptist Col- lege at the time of Mr. Mc.Master's death. (h) lu the foregoing scheme of lectures for the three years from 1889 to 1892 the work is not assigned to Professors with reference to the Chairs ol Instruction proposed in this recommendation. The assignment made, however, is a necessity ic order to employ pro- perly the time of "ach professor until classes in all the suhjfti'ts of the curricului!! are commenced. This will take place according to Reconmiendation II, at the beginning of the College year of 1 892-93. (c) Before the members of the present Faculty are assigned the work indicated in the foregoing lecture scheme, each should be designated to the department he is to occupy when lectures are commenced on all the subjects of the curriculum. This is necessary in order to determine at once the departments for which pro- perly qualified men must be found. In this connection permit me to suggest the following assignment of Chairs of Instruction: Namely, that the Chancellor take Phi- losophy and Evidences of Christianity, and, for the present, the English Bible ; that the Principal of To- ronto Baptist C-'oUege take Homiletics, Pastoral Theo logy and Church Polity ; that Professor Newman take Historical Theology and History ; that Professor Welton take Hebrew and (Cognate Languages, and, for the present. Biblical Introduction, Old Testament; that Professor Rand take Psychology, Ethics and Logic, and, for the present, Civil Polity ; and that Professor McGregor take Systematic Theology, and, for the present. Apologetics. ((/) It will be observed by referring to Table A that all the subjects contained in the two courses proposed are represented by the Chairs of Instruction proposed ; and that on Ar*:s' subjects, including options, 80 lec- tures per week will be required, and on Theological subjects, 48, making in all 128 lectures per week. It will also be observed that this number of lectures, distributed among twelve professors, gives each pro- fessor less than eleven lectures per week. («•) To carry into effect this Recommendation, and Recommendation II, the Professor of Latin aad Greek, or the Professor of New Testamentand Patristic (ireek, must enter upon the discharge "f his duties at the be- ginning of the College year 1889-90. The Professor of Mathematics, or Natural Sciences, at the beginning of 1891-92, and the other Professors at the beginning of 1892-93. It is suggested that these professors should be appointed at an early date, so as to allow them all, except the one who enters upon his duty in 1889-90, the opportunity of making, at their own cost, at least one year's special preparation for their work. Recommendatiox IV'. — With reference to Matricu- lation and attendance upon courses of lectures in McMaster University, the following recommendations are made : (1) That the subjects of Examination for Matricula tiou in Arts and Theology be the same as Junior Matriculation Pass Course in Toronto University, or a full equivalent, with the addition in Arts of the Honor subjects in Classics, Mathematics or English, and in Theology of prescribed portions of the English Bible and other Theological subjects. (2) It is lielieved that the standard for Matricula- tion here proposed is as high as can be safely adopted at the present time. I cannot, however, forbear ex- pressing the opinion that this standard is too low, and that the true interests of University education in On- tario, as well as the true interests of our (Collegiate Institutes and High. Schools, dem.and that a large share, if not the whole, of the present University work for the First Year, should be required for Matriculation. 16 (3) That the Examinations of the Educational De- partment for Urst and Second-class teachers' certifi- cates be accepted pro tantu at any Matriculation Examination. (4) That Graduation from the Classical Course of Woodstock College or Moulton College be accepted as ecjuivalent to passing the Matriculation Examination in Arts or Theology. (5) That Graduation from the English or Modern Language Course in Woodstock College or Moulton College, or an Examination upon a full equivalent to either of these courses, admit a student into all the lectures upon the English subjects of either the Arts or Theological C jurse, and entitle such student to a certificate of standing from the University on having passed the required examination on these subjects. (6) That the Senate, by special permission, admit into any of the lectures in Arts or Theology, without examination, as an occasional student, any person who shall comply with all the requirements of the Univer- sity. Recommenuation V. — That a course erf instruction, including the elements of Theology, be provided in Woodstock College, for students for the ministry who, because of age or other satisfactory reasons, are unable to comply with the conditions stated in Recommen- dation IV, for admission as regular students in Toronto Baptist College. The following suggestions regarding this Recom- mendation should be noted : Ca) To admit students of the class contemplated in this Recommendation to the lectures of the Univer- sity is a wrong to themselves, to the Professors, and to the other students attending these lectures. As already stated, it is impossible to adapt instruction to the wants of such students, without doing groat injus- tice to those who are properly prepared for the work. (b) But aside from the bad effect upon themselves and others, caused by attending lectures in the Uni- versity, the very work which such students should do is entirely wanting in such a course. What they need is a thorough drill in elementary, biblical and other subjects, that will form in them right habits of mental work and give them the power of speaking and writing English with some degree of accuracy. It is a great mistake to suppose that these reeds can be supplied by attendance upon lectures in the Univer- sity on theological or other related subjects. (c) The best interests of such students for the min istry and of the churches which they will afterwards serve, will be secured by requiring of them, first, to complete in a very thorough manner the preparatory course now provided in ^Voodstock College, and then pursue for at least two years, in Woodstock College, substantially the following course : naniely, a tho- rough study of the linglish Bible, of the Elements of Systematic Theology, of Composition and the Ele- ments of Rhetoric, of the Elements of Homiletics, of the Elements of General History and ■p.ihiio.al Gengra- pljy. of the Elenieuts of Mental and Moral Science, of the Elements of Geometry, and of the Elements of Physiography and Physiology. In addition to the study of these subjects, they should also be required to pursue, under the direction of their teachers, a carefully selected course of reading. Recommk.vdation VI. — That an additional building, an outline plan of which is herewith submitted, be erected before the beginning of next C(. liege year for Moulton College, at a cost not to exceed .'jilt), 000 This amount to include the building and furnishing, and be provided for as shown below in Financial Statement III. The following should be noticed regarding this Re- commendation : (aj The present accommodations have been taxed to the uttermost ever since the College opened last September. At the present time, by putting six stu- dents in one room, provision hew been made for forty- one boarders in the College budding. Provision has also been made in private fami '''> 'or a few additional boarders But after all war di » ohat could be done, at the beginning of the present term, (lU'te a nuniber of boarders had to be refused admissiou. Judging from the success of the College thus far, it is quite certain that accommodations will be required at the beginning of next College year for from seventy-five to one hundred boarders, and from one hundred to one hundred and fifty day pupils. The building pro- posed will, with the present buildings, make first-class provision for this number of boarders and day pupils. (hj In carrying this recommendation into effect, nc^'^ing is asked for the College in the way of money, beyond the annual appropriation of $4,000 which is already made. It will oe necssary, however, in order to go forward at once with the building proposed, that .$1(5,000 of this annual appropriation be paid in advance. On this amount, as well as upon the mort- gage of $25,000 on the premises, it is proposed to pay interest, as shown in Financial Statement IV, until the whole is cancelled. fc) The plan suggested to provide the necessary amount of money for the erection of the proposed building, and for the payment of the present mortgage of .$■25,000, is bS-sed upon the assumption, that, with the excellent accommodations proposed in the way of buildings and other appliances, the College, from the beginning of next year, will, from its own resources, meet all expenses, including the salaries of all the teachers. This, I am fully convinced, can be done without any difiiculty. It means, however, that every- thing pertaining to the College be managed economi- cally and efficiently. Rkcommendation VII.— To provide the necessary lecture rooms, and other accommodations, to carry into effect Recommendations I and II, the following course is recommended ; FirM.— That not later than during the year 1891-92 an additional building be erected at the west end of McMaster Hall for chapel and library, an outline plan of which ia herewith submitted, at a cost not to exceed 19 $20,000, which sutn can be paid from the balance shown in Financial Statement III. Second.— Th&t for the present the lectures on Arts' subjects be delivered in the lecture rooms of McMasier Hall, and that after the proposed chapel and library building is erected, the present chapel, library and reading-room be used as lecture rooms. Third. — That as soon as means for doing so can be secured, au Arts' building, the same in size and archi- tectural design as McMaster Hall, be erected west of the proposed chapel and library building, and con- nected therewith in the same manner as McMaster Hall. Before it can be decided to carry into effect this recom- mendation, careful consideration must be given to the following clause contained in the Trust Deed : ** It is declared and agreed that the lands and premises shall be held in trust to permit the completion of the buildings now being erected thereon, and to permit the use and occupation of tl a said build- ings, or of any buildings which may, at any time, be erected in addition thereto, or in the stead thereof, for all the necessary and proper purposes of Theologi- cal College, be called and known as the ' Tconto Baptist College,' or such other name as shall be given to the said College in and by the said Act of Incor- poration, for the education and training of students preparing for and intending to be engaged in pastoral, evangelical, missionary, or other denominational work in connection with the Regular Baptist Churclies ex- clusively, composed of persons who have been baptized on a personal profession of their faith in Christ. In interpreting this clause of the Trust Deed the following points should be carefully noted : (a) The lands and premises are to be held in trust to permit the use of all buildings erected thereon " for all the necessary and proper purposes of Theological College ... for the education and training of students preparing for and intending to be engaged in pastoral, evangelical, missionary, or other denomina- tional work." It will be observed that this language designates, in a general sense, the object.'^ for which the educadon and training are to be given, but it does not limit, in any sense, the nature and extent of this education and training. (6) Inasmuch as the nature and extent of the educa- tion and training to be " ven are not explicitly set forth in the Trust Deed, the ti'ue int _tior of Mr. McMaster, with reference to the trust imposed in this matter, must be determined by the course of action pursued during the seven year's in which he himself, as Trustee, and as Chairman of the Board of Trustees, had the chief voice in marking out the lines of work which could and should be none in McMaster Hall, or any other building erected upon the preiniseH. (c) Just here it should be noted that Mr. McMaster, in 1884-85, after the most careful consideration of the whole subject, made provision for two additional Pro- fessors in the Faculty of Toronto BapciatCollege in -^rder that Seven Arts Subjects might be added to the course or instruction pur8u/>d in the College at that time. The subjects added were Mental Science, Ethics, De- ductiv^e and Inductive Logic, Rhetoric and Oratory, Science and Religion and English Literature. Mr. McMaster went even further than this. When it was ''ecided, at the meeting of the Baptist Union held at Branttord, that the College should, in case certain conditions could be realized, enter into federation with Toronto University, he made provision for erecting an addition to McMaster Hall similar to the building now proposed. This addition was to be erected for the ex- press purpose of giving more accommodation for teach- ing, if not an entire Arts Course, quite an addition to the Arts subjects then included in the course of instruction iu the College and taught in the lecture rooms of McMaster Hall. All this Mr. McMaster did himself, and regarded what he had done as carrying out the true intention and spirit of the trust imposed in the clause quoted from the Trust Deed. (d) One thing more should be noted in this connec- tion. The latter clause of the above quotation, namely : "for the education and training of students preparing for, and intending to be engaged in, pas- toral, evangelical, missionary, or other denominational work in connection with the regular Baptist denom- ination," seems to restrict the trust to making pro- vision for students who were in some capacity to serve the Baptist denomination. This strict intf -pretatioii was not put upon this clause by Mr. McMaster himself. During his personal administration of the affairs of the College, as Chairman of the Board of Trustees, stu- dents were received into McMaster Hall, and into the lectures of Toronto Baptist College, who were not Baptists, and hence were not preparing to serve the Baptist denomination in any capacity. But more than this, when Mr. McMaster arranged plans to erect an addition to McMaster Hall, similar to the one now proposed, it was for the very purpose of mak- ing full provision for the education and training, not of Baptiti; students only, but of young men of other denominations who desired to fit themselves for real usefulness in their chosen life work. and III sala Mel Wo( Mc] Wo Mc] Wo Mc: Wo 20 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

Dyke, and also secured on the 156,000, as follows : Class No. 1 contains the amounts due where the pledges are written and signed in dv" form, and regarded as perfectly good ; Class No. 2 contains the amounts due on verbal promises, which are regarded as good ; Class No. 3 contains the amounts due on promises that were conditioned in some way, and therefore regarded as of doubtful value ; Class No. 4 contains the amounts due that are of no value.

Class No. 2 he regards also as good, making an aggregate of $27,052, of reiisonahly good subscriptions. To this should be added the $8,749 of new sub- scriptions, which Mr. Wol /erton has placed in Class No. 3. This amount is largely made up of balances due from subscriptions supposed to be affected by the decision to locate the Arts depart- ment of the University in Toronto. In reference to this amount, it is quite reason.'ible to expect that a pai'tof it will be realized, in view of the large expenditure^ tl's Oof.cd is mak'ng for Wood- stock College. Taking this amount into account, there is an !]^f g;ice . ubscription of $35,801, from which, with proper effort, it is believed $20,000 at least can be collected. Statement III. — The following shows the proposed disbursement of the surplus which will accumulate from 1888 to 1892, as shown in Statement I. It should be observed here, that in this statement $28,000 is allowed for buildings and improvements for Woodstock College. This is $1,500 more than the amount already appro- priated by the Board for this purpose. The Building Committee propose, however, to keep the expenditure rigidly within the appropriation already made, unless otherwise directed by the 22 I .^ r Board It %hould also be observed, that in this statement 83,000 is allowed to pay the interest upon the l|2;'>,U00 appropriated to Woodstock College until this aaiount is cancelled by the accu- niulatod surplus.

In this connection it should be noted, that the only encumbrance on Woodstock College not pro-ided for in the foregoing statement, is the mortgage of §3,000 on the Principal's residence. This the Board has ordered to be cancelled by the sale of the pnmises. Statrment IV. — This statement shows how it is proposed to carry into effect Recommen- dation VI, and cancel the mortgage of $25,000 on the premises of Moulton College, by the use of the annual appropriation of $4,000. Regardin,"? i-his s':atement it should be noted : (a) That 'he pori>d proposed, in whicli to pay, from the annual appropriation of C4,000, for the election of the proposed building and discharge the mortgage of $25,000, is sixteen years. (6) That no payment, except the $1,250 annual interest, is to be made upon the mortgage until the $16,000 expended on buildings is cancelled. This will require a little over seven years The interest on the unpaid ba.ld,nce, each year, of the $16,000, is calculated at six per cent., and on the mortgage at fve per cent. RECEIPTS.
