THE CADETS' STORE AND CANTEEN The cadets' store is located in the barracks and maintains a supply of everyday necessities for the use of the cadets. Aside from his toilet articles, the cadet should have little occasion to make other purchases after his admission to the Academy. For the convenience of parents who wish to avoid shopping for the articles which cadets must bring from home, the Academy store maintains a small supply of these and sells them at the standard retail prices. Cadets are responsible for all articles of uniform and equipment furnished them by the Acad' emy and all personal effects brought from home. Such articles if lost, defaced, damaged beyond repair or worn out will be replaced immediately and the cost charged to the cadet's account. Luggage, musical instruments and all standard manufactured articles are procurable by the cadets' store. POCKET MONEY ALLOWANCE The privilege of pocket money allowance is granted cadets of the various classes in accord' ance with the following schedule: First Class ........... 52.00 per week Third Class .......... 351.50 per week Second Class ......... 531.75 per week Fourth Class ......... 51.00 per week Juniors ............. S .75 per week The attention of parents is directed to the importance which the Admiral Farragut Acad' emy attaches to the matter of a cadet's spending allowance. Habits of thrift, judicious spending, and a general appreciation of the value of money can be learned more easily by a youth whose allowance is limited to the extent that he must think before spending. In order to eliminate the possible loss of money on the part of cadets, the Academy requests that the pocket money allowance be deposited with the Finance Oflicer. He will issue periodically to the cadet the amount of the allowance schedule. . -0 --.lb WHALE BOAT DRILL PAGE FORTTVFIVE

Robert also seems to be very proud of his school. He is always giving us the finest kind of reports. We have had no complaint from him regarding the entire school. He says the meals are Hne, and the instructors and teachers excellent. We will recommend your school very highly to anyone interested in the same. Sincerely yours, STERLING VAN WINKLE. Admiral Farragut Academy, Toms River, N. Dear Sir: I have just been notified that my son Richard, now a high school senior at your academy, will, upon his graduation in june, be admitted to the School of Engineering, Carnegie Institute of Technology here, without any examination. This proves my good judgment in sending my boy to your academy last fall. The Admiral Farragut Academy should enjoy noteworthy advantages through having as its founders-broadminded, reverend officers and teachers, liberal in religious views-a faculty of recognized standing. Out of their selffsacriiicing efforts has grown the fine spirit of service, democracy and comradeship which now pervades the life at your academy. I shall always feel grateful to your institution for that which you have given to my boy. Respectfully yours, GILBERT C. CLOONAN. Pittsburgh, Pa. Admiral Farragut Academy, Toms River, N. I. Dear Admiral Robison: This may be the moment for me to express the enthusiasm of Mrs. Frazee and myself for the opportunities that are offered by the Academy toward the education and development of youth. The benehts derived from such a service as yours should, if possible, be brought to the attention of the parents. Sincerely yours, FRANK V. FRAZEE. Admiral Farragut Academy, Toms River, N. 'iGentlemen: All who have associated with Fred during the Christmas holidays have remarked about what a 'different' boy he is, physically, mentally, gentlemanly, and in selffcontrol. We assure them all that the 'difference' is due to Admiral Farragut Academy and the officers and instrucf tors and associations with that fine bunch of students, have made this transformation in our boy. He has had a fine time these three weeks at home, but he is looking forward with a great deal of pleasure to his return to 'Admiral Farragut'. Sincerely yours, ROBERT H. DAVIS.
