GEOMETRY.-An extra course of one lecture a week will be given on Geometry, Theoretical and Practical.

Text-books.-Barnard and Child's "New Geometry for Schools;" Baker and Bourne's "Elementary Geometry" (Books V-VII).

Hour of Lecture.-Saturday, 11–12 a.m.

SENIOR COURSE.-Such students as have previously obtained at least a good Second Class in the Annual Examination, or can otherwise shew that they have reached this standard, may, with the approval of the Professor, take a special Senior Course which will be arranged.

TUTORIAL CLASSES.-Tutorial Classes will be arranged for those for whom help additional to that given in the regular lectures may be necessary or advisable, and for those who require for special purposes Mathematics not included in the regular

courses.

ANNUAL EXAMINATION.-In the Annual Examination for the keeping of terms, two papers will be set, one on Geometry and Trigonometry, and the other on Algebra. Candidates for a Second or Third Year's Terms will be expected to reach a higher standard than candidates for a First Year's Terms. The papers will include some extra questions, answers to which will not be expected to qualify for the several classes, but which will be taken into account in assigning the Order of Merit.
