CM ATIONAL PARK SEMINARY is named from its proximity to the great National Rock 

 Park, recently purchased by the Government and designed to become the most beauti- 

 J I L* ful reservation of the National Capital. This whole region is marvelously beautiful and 

 picturesque with its combination of forest, stream, hill and dale. It rises gradually 

 from the City of Washington till at Forest Glen the Seminary stands on an eminence four hun- 

 dred feet above the level of the city. Forty acres of sunny slopes and wild ravines, towering 

 trees and winding paths, babbling brocks and tangled dells, combine to form a site seldom 

 rivaled in varied and inspiring scenery, where the beautiful is utilized to develop character 

 The altitude of its location pi ecludes possibility of malaria. The equable climate, free fro 

 the rigors of a northern winter promotes health by inviting out door sports. The buildii 

 itstlf crowns the highest hill and was erected and equipped at an expense of $So,ooo; it has a 

 frontage of two hundred and seventy-five feet, with three large center halls thirty by forty feet 

 on each floor, which afford a charming rendezvous for student life; heated by steam and light 

 by g as with bath rooms plentiful and sanitary arrangements complete. The house is situated 

 so that every room gets the sun at some time during the day. 



The close proximity to the National Capital, with all the educational and social advan 

 tages appertaining to such a residence, offers wonderful facilities to its pupils. The Semir 3 

 is within twenty minutes of the heart of the city and, with twenty trains daily, besides electric 

 cars, easy access is afforded to all the Libraries, Muserms, Departments of Government, Con- 

 gress and Foreign Legations. These with the official and social life of the National Capital offer 

 opportunities for profitable study. 



The course of study is planned to produce womanly women. There are twenty-two 

 teachers and the limited number of pupils permits of much personal attention and individual 

 instruction for each. Health is a matter of first consideration always. There are no nerve- 

 straining examinations. Thirty different States represented among the pupils, bringing 

 together the daughters of representatives families throughout the entire Union. 



The Seminary's watchword : " We consider text-book training only a p 1/ ! of our it'orh as 

 educators. We shall be satisfied with nothing le^s than the development of the a "A'-"
