EXPENSE IN DRESS. Parents are often to blame for the heavy expenses of their daughters at Boarding Schools. Unnecessary expenditure in dress are frequent--if not the rule. Young ladies really require fewer changes of dress and less expensive clothing at school than at home. One neat Ciuniformw dress for Sunday service is suchient at school; while at home, three or four changes would not be too much. W e discourage expensive dressing, and the use Of expesive jewelry. UNIFORM. On Sundays, as well as all public occasions, the boatdimg pupils are required to wear uniform. This is economy and prevents distinction in dress. It consists of black dress, Oxford gown and cap. The gown and cap are to be purchased after entering school. The cost of the gown will not exceed $10, and the cap will cost $2.50. The dress may be of any serviceable material, but must be black. Only black Wimrmmgs are allowed. Only white and black are allowed for neckweam No- heavy wrap or winter hat need be provided, as the gown and cap are sufficient. During fall and spring the uniform is plain white waist and black skirt, and plain white straw hat, with black ribbon band as trimming. No party or even- ing dresses are allowed on any occasion. SPECIAL COURSES. Pupils sufficiently matured, who wish to take special or irregular courses, may do soaprovided the President shall decide that the selected course is preferable to at- tain the end in View. We take special interest in instructing and training in Instrumental Music, Vocal Music, Art and Elocution, pupils who wish to become teachers of these branches. 64 Conservatories of Music, Art Schools and Schools of Elocution present no better opportunity for such pupils than this College presents. Special courses are arranged for those who have been teachers or- desire to become teachers, and certifi- cates of their grade and the work done will be presented when they leave.
