 NOTE. 
 
 This scheme is the outgrowth of more than ten years' experi- 
 ence wi& one of the largest collections of works on Physical 
 Training. It is intended primarily for the use of specialists 
 engaged in the study and practice of this subject. 
 
 If used in connection with Dewey's "Decimal Classification," 
 it may be inserted at 613.71, in which case the whole of class 
 P 100-P 199 might be omitted, as Dewey provides for it else- 
 where in his scheme. 
 
 In the more than two hundred and fifty sub-classes it is 
 believed a place will be found for anything bearing upon the 
 subject — books, pamphlets, newspaper cuttings, notes, circulars, 
 pictures, charts, apparatus, etc. 
 
 Whether a collection of material be large or small, its thorough 
 classification will greatly increase its usefulness, and often make 
 apparent for the first time its resources. Such a classification also 
 furnishes in itself a subject catalog of all matter outside of 
 collected works.

 xi icuuius wuciL ia going on among the students and faculty. It 
 publishes the original work which is being done by students and

 educational center. The subscription price is $1.00.
