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.

During the month of September several hundred thousand of young Americans will leave their homes to attend some institution of learning. How many parents realize just what that phrase-llleave honie,l-means? Few, we fear, really grasp the idea embodiedethe fact that not only are the moral influences of the home life no longer to surround the Child, but that the careful super- vision of their physical welfare with which the parents have guarded their sons and daughters is to give place to another, and, too often, a different state of affairs. Even the most careful parents will neglect to make sure that the hygienic surroundings of their Children in the school are all that they should be.
