A she vill e School 19 If the influence of any boy is believed to be harmful to the School, apart from any overt acts of disobedience or insubordination, he may be summarily dismissed. No firearms are allowed at the School. The deportment, industry and scholarship of each boy are made known to his parents or guardian every four weeks. All text-books and stationery used may be purchased at the School at regular rates. Boys should bring with them the books they studied during the past year. There are few extra or incidental expenses. Therefore expense parents may know in advance what the cost for the school year will be. The annual charge covers the tuition fee and all living expenses except for clothing. The charge for books and stationery is extra. The School provides all articles used by the various School teams — crews, baseball, football, basketball, tennis, golf and track athletics — which are not personal or individual property. The School pays the expenses of the teams and purchases the trophies awarded. No admission fee is charged for any athletic con- tests or entertainments held at the School. No extra charge is made for infirmary service or for the services of a trained nurse, unless a special nurse is required. The annual charge is $1,350, payable $675 at the open- ing of school in September and $675 on February first. Boys are accepted in September only with the understanding that they are to remain for the full year; however, no objection will be made to a withdrawal during the Christmas vacation
