McGill University is very progressive in its educational reforms. It has just adopted a six year double course | arrangement to cover B.Se., (arts), and M.D. and CM. The first two years will be spent by the stu dent in the arte department. In the third year he will hegin the lectures in the medical classes, thopgh still fol lowing options in the aris clusses. In the fourth year his time in'the arts fa- culty will be cut down to a morning and afternoon of advanced laboratory work, and he will devote himseli to the subject which, at the end of the year, will entitle him to the degree of BSc. The Bith and sixth years will be exactly the same as the third and fourth in medicine, and will result in the M.D. CN. degree. The Witnesses commenting upon the changes, observes : "The new course has many advantages besides that of saving time. It should ensure the power to read Franch and German aw thors, an absolute necessity to any one who wishes to do research work at ul wyalue.
