A ^p— &ffi on ' 
meteorology — 60 hours. 
The course here outlined assumes some knowledge of general weather changes as 
illustrated on the daily weather map and as recommended by the conference on 
geography of the National Educational Association in 1893 for the lower schools, and 
that the student has taken an elementary course in physics in the high school or first 
year in college, and especially has precise knowledge of mass, volume, density; force, 
inertia, velocity, rotation, centrifugal force; graYitation, gravity, weight; atom, mole- 
cule; solid, liquid, gas; expansion, heat, temperature, specific heat, latent heat.
