The sales of the Ritchie New World
Health Series—the giant among
health textbooks-continue to in-
crease. A stack of books, represent-
ing the actual sales last year, would
tower twice as high as the loftiest peak
of the Himalayas.
Today the Ritchie Series, consisting of
PRIMER OF HYGIENE, PRIMER OF SAN-
ITATION, PRIMER OF PHYSIOLOGY, and
HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY, enjoys a larger
and wider use than any other series
on this subject.
The unusual success of the Ritchie
physiologies is the natural result of
their careful preparation. That their
use is still increasing is testimony to
the excellent choice of schools that
have adopted them.

UNIVERSITY of PITTSBURGH

JOHN GABBERT BOWMAN, LL.D., Chancellor

A Few Facts

The University of Pittsburgh was founded in 1787 and is supported in part by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

It has in 1924 a faculty of 603 and a student body, excluding extramural centers, of 8,512.

It comprises the following thoroughly organized schools: The College, Schools of Engineering, Mines, Business Administration, Education, Medi. cine, Law, Pharmacy, Dentistry, Graduate School, Allegheny Observatory, Mellon Institute of Industrial Research,

The School of Education

of the University of Pitts-
burgh, at the opening of
the academic year 1924-25,
stands in the best position
it has ever held to serve the
teaching profession and the
school-supporting public
of the State of Pennsylva-
nia. The avenues of its

service are many and varied: THE FACULTY of the School of

Education, consisting of thirty-five specialists in every branch of education, has been strengthened. THE BASIC DEPARTMENTS of

Elementary Education, History and Principles, Secondary Education and Psy. chology, offer a curriculum of more than one hundred standard professional courses. TE

EACHERS in elementary schools,

junior and senior high schools, trade and continuation schools, supervisors of special branches, principals, city and county superintendents can find work adapted to their specific needs, to meet state certificate requirements, secure bachelor's or graduate degrees, or solve their local problems. SPECI PECIAL DEPARTMENTS of Re

ligious Education, Vocational Education, Physical Education, and Americanization serve the interests of large groups in the twenty-six counties of Western Pennsylvania. The environment of a great industrial metropolis offers a laboratory for practical teaching experience.

THE

TEACHERS' APPOINTMENT BUREAU provides the link between the qualified teacher-student and the school executive who needs help. Its service is free.

TH

HE SUMMER SESSION, attended

last summer by nearly two thousand students, offers an ever-widening opportunity for teachers who wish to capitalize their summer vacations. THE DIVISION OF EXTRAMU

RAL INSTRUCTION is literally an attempt to push the walls of the University to the farthest limits of the Pittsburgh district, with its four million population. It brings its facilities to the side of educators in their own communities for single lectures, extension courses, school surveys, teachers' institutes, or consultation on administrative, financial, and building problems.
