To graduate in any department of the Conservatory a pupil must have completed literary work the equivalent of that of an ordinary High School. No one Will be graduated in any department of the Conservatory unless the Junior and Senior years have been passed in this school. In exceptional cases, Where a pupil has had What we consider first- class training before entering this school, an examination Will be given covering the work of the Junior year, Which, if passed satisfactorily, will permit the pupil to enter the Senior year. Expense in Dress Parents are often to blame for the heavy expenses of their daughters at Boarding Schools. ' Unnecessary expenditures in dress are fre- quente-if not the rule. Young ladies really require fewer changes of dress and less expensive clothing at school than at home. One neat Ctuniformiv dress for Sunday service is sufficient at school; While at home, three or four changes would not be too much. We discourage expensive dressing, and the use of expensive jewelry. Uniform On Sundays, as well as all public occasions, the boarding 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 $Io, and the cap Will cost $2,5'o. The dress may be of any serviceable material, but must be black. Only black trim- mings are allowed. Only white and black are allowed for neckwea'r. 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 during Winter black waist and black skirt. A girl needs three or four White shirtwaists, one black silk shirtwaist and one black skirt. No party or evening dresses are allowed, on any occasion.
