The French department is in receipt of a catalogue issued by the Franco-American committee for the purpose of stating clearly to American students the advantages to be derived from attending French Universities. Through the efforts of Harry J. Furber of Chicago, the Franco-American committee was led to see the advisibility of offering special inducements to American students. Mr Furber for a number of years studied at German Universities; travelling through France he was impressed with the high character of its Universities, and could not help but wonder why there were so few American students there, while the number at the German Universities was so great. The American goes to trance to study art, but for literature and sciences he goes to Germany because the inducements have herefore been greater. furthermore. On account of cheaper living, smaller classes and better opportunities for becoming acquainted, the students are recommended to attend the smaller universities at Lyon, Toulouse, Bordeaux and Grenoble, rather the University of Paris. Summer courses are offered at the universities of Paris, Caen, Clermont, Greenteble and Nancy. the universities of France now offer the doctor's degree to Americans and also have formed summer schools. The cost of living in France is not great. One may live well in Paris for $40 a month and in the provinces living is still cheaper. The Messageries Martinians, and the Trans-Atlantic companies make a reduction of thirty per cent on the fares of American students going to France. To obtain this reduction an application must be made to the corresponding secretary, who will take the necessary steps to procure it. Of course the application must be made some time before beforehand. H Owen Smith was ill Thursday. Prof Hunter spent the latter part of last week in Wellington, Kansas, examin ing nurseries.
