Columbia University includes both a college and a university in the strict sense of the words. The college is Columbia College, founded in 1754 as King's College. The university consists of the Faculties of Law, Medicine, Philosophy, Political Science, Pure Science and Applied Science.

The point of contact between the college and the university is the senior year of the college, during which year students in the college pursue their studies, with the consent of the college faculty, under one or more of the faculties of the university.

Barnard College, a college for women, is financially a separate corporation; but, educationally, is a part of the system of Columbia University.

Teachers College, a professional school for teachers, is also, financially, a separate corporation; and also, educationally, a part of the system of Columbia University.

Each college and school is under the charge of its own Faculty, except that the Schools of Mines, Chemistry, Engineering and Architecture are all under the charge of the Faculty of Applied Science.

For the care and advancement of the general interests of the university educational system, as a whole, a Council has been established, which is representative of all the corporations concerned.

Pathfinders of the West

By A. C. LAUT, Author of "Lords of
the North."

Cloth, 12mo, illustrated, $2.00 net (postage 21c.)

A captive among the Indians as a boy, a great discoverer before he was twenty-six, the founder of the world's greatest fur company,-explorer, fighter, and exile in turn-such is the leading character Miss Laut has chosen for her "Pathfinders of the West." Radisson's life reads more like romance than history; but it is history of the most romantic order, crammed with the thrilling adventures. Radisson was a dare-devil explorer, but his achievements must be taken into account if we would have our histories true; for he was on the banks of the Mississippi twenty years before La Salle, and had roved from the Missouri to Hudson Bay a century before Lewis and Clark were born. The true story of his adventures is now told for the first time. Published by
