obtaining anatomical material and must buy whenever it is available. I am glad to report that the supply for last session was quite sufficient, and with the bodies on hand we anticipate no diffidculty in this direction for the next year. In considering the question of revenue from the Department, we meet with a condition, viz: The inseperable connection of the Medical Department and College which makes exact figures impossible. To correctly judge of this matter we do better to consider the several advantages of the department to the College.
First, in its extended scientific course, laying the foundation for future professional work, it gives the College a distinct advantage over Colleges not so equipped.
Second, the professional services of its professers aside from the teaching, amounts to about $1500 per year for the college. This arrangment is ideal for students who feel free to consult the physicians in minor troubles, and in the incipiency of diseases, and in this way grave consequences are often avoided. Again it insures every student against heavy medical fees.
Third, a number of men are now in college with the intention of taking medicine later and but for this combined course with its economy ofo time and money might be elsewhere.

Fourth, the tutition of students engaged in the study of
medical branches alone is that much cash for the College.
The number of Medical students last session was seventeen.
Now a few words as to the outlook. The future of the department
is very bright. There are in college to day thirty six men
taking medicince or B. S. work. At least 90% of the B.S. men will
take medicine. Add to these some A. B. Men who will take medicine
next year and those entering college next year to go at once into
Medicine, and I think we may safely estimate our next year's
class double that of any previous year. This certain increase in
students, considered with the great improvment in laboratory
facilities, stimilates high hopes for a useful and prosperous
future.

The report of the Dean of the School of Law follows:

"To the President of Wake Forest College:
Dear sir:-
It is gratifying to me to report the
Law School in the most prosperous condition it has ever been.
The total enrollment for the year is 87, of these 25 were in the
Summer School. We have had as large enrollment as this before,
but the average attendence has been greater than ever before.
The work done has been very fine. At the August Examination
sixteen applied for license, all passed but one; at the February
Examination, ten applied and all passed. In addition to these,
one of our men has been licensed in Florida and on in New York.
By reference to the catalogue it will appear that the course
has been made longer and more thorough work planned. This
necessitates more teaching force.
Respectfully,
N. Y. GULLEY, Prof of Law."
Some changes of importance in the course leading to
graduation have been made by the Faculty. The work in the Bachelor
of Laws course has been extended to cover three years instead of
two as heretofore, and the Master of Arts requirements now include
three advanced subjects instead of two as heretofore, and a
minimum grade of 90. The total number of required hours for the
Bachelor of Arts course has been reduced from 65 to 62 and the
conditions of entrance have been improved.
The number of students enrolled is 345. This number is
