It merits careful consideration. The school plays a vital part in giving direcf tion to the life and the setting up of ideals. Equipment, location, etc., are matters of import' ance. Equipment must be adequate for comfort, for class work, for healthful recreation. For most girls of school ages, country location is preferable to city. What matters most, however, is the personality and quality of the teachers, the atmosphere of the school, and the influence which it brings to bear upon its students. Linden Hall merits favorable consideration. It is the object of the following pages to present to parents and their daughters an accurate picture of the school and to acquaint them with the ideals, the aims, and the spirit that characterizes it.

Its story carries us back to the year 1746. It was begun as a dayfschool for the daughters of the hardy pioneers who settled in Lititz and its vicinity, and banded themselves together for mutual helpfulness. It is signiicant of the type and spirit of these early settlers that, at the very outset, they made provision for the educa' tion of both their sons and daughters. The fame of the little Pennsylvania village school, resided over by teachers whose culture had been acquired in the schools of Europe, spread abroad. Parents in various parts of Pennsylvania and Maryland cov' eted for their daughters the excellent training and education en- joyed by the Moravian village girls of Lititz, and urgent requests weris made that their daughters might be admitted as boarding' pu . P Good schools were scarce, under the circumstances it appeared a duty to yield to the entreaties and share the opportunities and advantages of Linden Hall with others. A boarding department was added in 1794. The first board' ingfpupil came from Baltimore. The increasing number of apglif cants compelled enlargement of the plant from time to time. e two rooms at first set apart for the school have grown into the group of buildings which now serve the needs of the School. Spirit and Purpose To send forth young women with abounding health, with minds well instructed and trained to clear thinking, with broad sympathies, with refined tastes, with appreciation of the beautiful world in which they live, with hands trained for the useful tasks of IPlge Swenj LINDEN HALL life, and with hearts responsive to the Creator and Saviour-that is, as it ever has been, the mission of Linden Hall. The spirit of service, which led to the founding of the school and to its development as a boarding school later, has always char' acterized it. It endeavors to afford the opportunities and the train' ing that will enable the girls entrusted to its care to reach the high' est development of their natures, physically, mentally, socially and spiritually. It exists only for its students. In their welfare it 'finds its mission. -, Moravian Standards in Education The Moravian Church, one of the oldest of the Protestant denominations, pioneered in the education of women. More than a century and three quarters ago it established schools that have continued to the present day to enjoy a fine reputation and a large patronage. These schools have enjoyed the conidence of the public be' cause of the ine ideals and high standards which have characterized them. The word Moravian in connection with education has won for itself a rich content of meaning. It stands for the highest and best. It connotes thoroughness. Linden Hall affords its students every facility for the complete mastery of the courses of study which it offers. Its definite aim is to provide thorough preparation for college entrance for those whose ambitions tend that way, or a wellfrounded general secondary education for others. It also aiords fine facilities for training along specific lines of preparation for usefulness. Its certiicate is accepted by those colleges into which students are admitted by certificate. The students who maintain the required grade in their work are prepared to take the college entrance exami- nations where these are required. Its graduates have a fine record for achievement in the colleges of their choice. Life Attractive, Homelike Life at Linden Hall is not only wholesome, but it is attractive and appeals to girls. It is our conviction that no girl can do or be her best unless she is happy and contented, in full harmony with her lPage Eigbtj ' LINDEN HALL environment. It is our aim, therefore, to surround her with an at- mosphere that is truly 'homelike. Our system of domestic arrangements, duplicating the best features of home and familyflifeg the presence in the school of girls of all ages, the fact that the principal and his wife live in the school, and keep in sympathetic touch with each member of the school householdg as well as the courteous and kindly spirit that marks the mutual relations of all, tend to produce that homeffeeling that has endeared the school to many generations of students. I didn't know that any school could be as nice as Linden Hall is. It is altogether different from the boarding schools I have at' tended heretofore. It is just like home. Everyone is so kind and takes a personal interest in you. I love it and feel as much at home as though I had always been here, is what one girl said about it. The Room Companies and the Girl Linden Hall assumes the fullest responsibility for every girl entrusted to its care. It regards as a sacred obligation the welfare of each individual student. To fulfill this obligation, it has adopted a unique system of domestic arrangements. The pupils and teach' ers form the household, at the head of which are the principal and his wife. Each girl receives the most careful individual attention and the fullest degree of protection. The pupils below the Senior Class are divided, according to age, into roomfcompanies, comprising from ten to twenty girls. The life of the girls in the roomfcompanies is much the same as in a wellfregulated home. They have the beneit of the constant com- panionship and wise counsel of two duty teachers who take charge on alternate weeks. Cheerful Living Quarters Bach group or roomfcompany occupies its own lloor in one of the buildings. A complete suite of rooms, including both lavatories, showers, etc., is at the command of the group. In addition to the customary students' living rooms, each group has its own large sittingfroom, attractively furnished and equipped ' fray New LINDEN HALL with a piano, to serve as its social center. Here the girls visit with one another or with callers from other groups. The living rooms are light and cheerful. They are suitably furnished. They accommodate two and four girls. Each girl has her own wardrobe closet. The special feature of the Linden Hall arrangement is the separate sleeping quarters. Each roomfcompany has its own dormi' tory, as the sleeping quarters are called. They occupy the upper story of the buildings. They consist of large, wellfventilated rooms, which are divided into small bedrooms containing a single bed. The partitions reach only half way to the ceiling. There is, therefore, free circulation of air without the danger from draught. The ar' rangement closely approximates the benefits of the outdoor sleeping porch. VVhen the livingfroom must also serve as a bedroom it is inevi' table, at least in colder weather, that ventilation will be sacriiced for warmth. At Linden Hall the girls sleep where the breezes blow and dress and live where it is warm. A combination bed and livingfroom can never be kept as neat and comfortable as a livingfroom minus the bed. The Linden Hall dormitory plan assures each girl the full measure of privacy that is her due, and at the same time aifords her the security that the presence of others, including the teacher, insures. Its unquestioned advantages in the matter of protection, health and neatness commend it strongly to thinking parents. The girls themselves are enthusiastic about it. It plays a large part in pro' moting the good health which Linden Hall girls enjoy. The Seniors and advanced students occupy the Annex, a newly' erected wing, to the Castle. They live in rooms which accommodate two girls. The rooms are most attractive and comfortable. They are light and airy and are supplied with hot and cold water. They are used for living and study purposes only. The sleeping apartments are separate as described above and occupy the upper story of this wing. fPage Tmj The V4111xi1A1, Ibe FI011'L'1' of Ike Nine Hociej Tedmf llvlvere lbs Girlf Mae! in Friena'15 I71IL'l'l'0ll7'N6-Y-S0L'idl Hall A llneuftb of Good Tbifzgr 111 Read md an Iurifing Plate to Read Them 143-.. ...ll U bc'1'e Perfawmznce ix Ijlllllfflclfj' and an Uflqlmlifed Surfeapr LINDEN HALL A Successful Living Regime The roomfcompany system enables Linden Hall to keep faith with parents and to fuliil the moral responsibility which the school assumes for its students. The experience of many successive generations of girls at Lin' den Hall has demonstrated this system to be best adapted to promote and maintain correct personal and social habits, and to enable the pupils to derive the largest measure of pleasure and benefit from the time spent at school. To isolate a girl at a formative age is attended by obvious dan' gers. It is far better for her to be thrown into close association with a group of girls, so that she may have the benefit of the social and character training that results from the wider contact, Lmder the wise supervision of an older person. The supervision during the hours of study by trained, judicious teachers, is also of great advantage to the pupil. It promotes life' time habits of punctuality, diligence, and concentration. Wholesomeness of the Routine Inestimable advantages are derived from the regular mode of livingg from the selffcontrol that the life of the school encourages, as it moves on silentlyg from the absence of any distractions from Withoutg from the kindly attention bestowed upon each one per- sonally by the teacherg from the many opportunities for construc' tive amusement and culture of tastes which belong to unspoiled girlhood.

U-'age Elevenj LINDEN HALL Splendid Teacher Influence The most potent influences are not infrequently the indirect ones. The decisive question, therefore, with regard to a school is not merely its curriculum and its appointments, but its spirit and the personality of those who are the chief factors in directing and main' taining that spirit. The utmost care is therefore exercised at Linden Hall in the selection of teachers. Because of the intimate relation with the girls into which the teachers are necessarily brought by our system, their personality and influence is bound to be one of the strong determining factors in the development of the character of the pupils. Force of character, real womanliness, broad culture, a sympa' thetic understanding of young girls and their needs, and the ability to deal wisely with them, are considered of equal importance with scholastic attainments. Vigorous Health Intelligent care is given to the promotion of health. The im' provement in the health and strength of students within a very short time after they come under the wholesome regime of school are, in most cases, so marked as to call for comment. The entire absence of those outside distractions that put a. heavy strain upon a growing school girl's strengthg the regularity of the lifeg early hours for retiring, a full measure of sleep under the favorable conditions described elsewhere, an abundance of whole' some and appetizing foodg the maintenance of the right relation be' tween work and play, daily setfupsg gymnasium drill and swimmingg various outdoor sports under trained supervisiong--all tend strongly to promote good health. As a consequence, serious illness is a mat' ter of exceedingly rare occurrence. In cases of slight indisposition, competent attention is given by a resident nurse. The prompt admission of the indisposed to a suite of attractive rooms, and immediate care by the nurse, not only insure the comfort and the speedy recovery of the individual, but prevent colds, etc., from becoming epidemic. An isolated observation ward is maintained as a further precaution. l:Page Twelvej A LINDEN HALL Students at Play The value of recreation is fully recognized at Linden Hall. Every form of recreational activity that will benefit a girl and give zest to her work has a recognized place on the school program. Athletic Sports are to the fore. No expense has been spared to provide superior facilities along this line. All the major sports are represented. The school does not seek to develop a few crack athletes to win laurels for the school in interschool contests. Rather is it our policy that every single girl shall have the opportunity to engage in those sports which appeal to her and to derive from them the utmost benefit. The sports at Linden Hall are conducted not for the few, but for the many. To enhance interest and bring into play a wholesome spirit of rivalry, the school is, for Athletic purposes, divided into two groups, the Blues and the Whites. Each group is represented by a first and second team in each of the various sports. A record is kept of the points won in each contest and at the end of the season a banner is awarded to the side having gained the greatest number of points. In consequence, there is keen interest and happy rivalry in all sports. In addition to the Blue and White teams are the various class teams and also the Varsity teams, which latter occasionally engage in friendly contest with teams representing other schools. This plan, while working for the benefit of the many whom it interests in the sports, also, but incidentally, develops teams able to compete successfully with representatives from other schools. Many notable victories have been won in recent years by the Varsity teams in contest with schools having a much larger student body to provide their athletic material. Hockey is one of the major sports that has won for itself an important place in the interest of Linden Hall girls. It is deservedly po ular for it engages a large number of players out in the open. It calls for quick action, and strenuous effort. It is a game tense with interest for participants and spectators. Those who engage in it reap great rewards in physical vigor, mental alertness, and fine self' control. Who will ever forget the hours between 36' spent on the Hockey Field as participants or eager watchers? Linden Hall is ' lPage Tbirteenj LINDEN HALL fortunate in having a Hockey Field on its own campus as nearly per' fect as money and effort can produce. A close rival of Hockey in the interest of the girls is Basket Ball. When cold weather comes the interest of the students turns to this sport. Here again Linden Hall girls are fortunate in that the large Gymnasium affords an excellent Basket Ball floor upon which they may get all the thrills and develop the ine qualities of physique and mind and character that this sport fosters. How often during the Winter months the gym rings with the wild cheers and the enthusiastic shouts of the student body as some interfclass or Blue and White game or a game with some closelyfmatched outside rival is in progress. What tense moments there are when victory hangs in the balance, and what rejoicing when the final score spells victory. All this is a vital part of the colorful, happy, wholesome life of the school. Tennis, necessarily less spectacular than Hockey and Basket Ball, none the less holds a high place. The battle of skill between two or four opponents also has its tense moments of interest, especial' ly when a tournament brings out the ,student body as spectators and a hardffought battle is in progress between evenlyfmatched contestants to decide the championship. Indeed, there are few days during the Tennis season when all six courts which constitute the Linden Hall equipment along this line are not occupied by happy girls eager to develop their skill and to enjoy the thrills and pleasures which this fine game affords. Swimming occupies a place of its own and probably has a larger number of devotees than any other sport. It is safe to say that not a single day passes during the school term that the splash of Water and shouts of glee may not be heard in the vicinity of the pool. And times there are when the pool is the center of the intense interest of the entire school, when water sports are in progress or when a swim' ming meet is being staged. Unquestionably the beautiful white tiled pool with its bluest of blue water kept fresh and sanitary by daily iltration contributes much to the health and joy of the student body. And what shall be said of horseback riding, that prince of sports? What can contribute so much of pleasure and of health as a swift canter on a brisk October day through the beautiful country? fPage Fourteenl LINDEN HALL Who will ever forget the delightful early moming rides up into the mountains, with breakfast served at the brookside? Here the noble sport may be enjoyed to the fullest, for Linden Hall maintains its own stables and the coimtry abounds in beautiful and everfchanging scenery. Interesting Student Activities Lighter forms of recreation also receive full recognition at Lin' den Hall. Two large rooms centrally located are dedicated to social ac' tivities and are known as Social Hall. Furnished and decorated under the direction of a student committee, the Hall truly represents the taste of the girls themselves and provides an appropriate setting for their social activities. Here they gather during the noon and evening hours set apart for recreation and engage in various pastime. Those who wish to dance find the opportunity each evening on the Gym floor, where an electricallyfoperated Orthophonic Vic' trola is ever ready to provide the musical accompaniment. Teas, formal dances, parties, all play their part in the busy, happy life of the girls. Frequent and various social events, formal and informal, not only meet the girl's innate desire for a good time, but they also pref pare her to take her place in the social sphere that is to be hers later. A Literary Society oflicered and conducted by the students holds bifweekly meetings, which afford splendid opportunity for the cultivation of the gift of public speaking, recitation, etc. Stu' dent and faculty critics offer constructive criticism and add to the helpfulness of the meeting. A school paper is issued at stated times by a staff composed of and elected by the girls. All are given an opportunity to contribute to its columns. Many a girl thus discovers unexpected talents and Ends welcome opportunities for their development. The business management of the paper provides line training for those elected to this responsibility. . Dramatics play an important role ,in the school life. Frequent plays and entertainments are given, either by the girls who are doing special work in the department or by representatives of the different p l:Page Fifteenj LINDEN HALL groups, thus affording all who have histronic talents the pleasure of participation and the opportunity for the development of their gifts. Lectures, Musicals, Entertainments To afford our students the opportunity to hear good lectures, music, etc., a Lyceum Course is given each winter under the direc' tion of the School. .Travelogues and a number of illustrated lectures on various subjects of interest are arranged. Recitals and concerts afford the students an opportunity to cultivate a taste for the best in music and give an incentive to make the most of their talents. In addition to the opportunities afforded locally, students are permitted and encouraged, under proper chaperonage, occasionally to attend such entertainments in nearby cities as have an educational and cultural value. I Visits to Points of Historical Interest i Trips are arranged to points of historical interest in which this region abounds. For instance, a trip to Valley Forge or to Gettys- burg is an experience that will stir patriotic impulses and stimulate greater interest in the study of history. ' A visit of several days' duration to Waslungton, D. C., is ar' ranged each year for the Seniors and advanced students, to afford them the opportunity to become acquainted with the Nation's Capital. Individual Attention The large measure of individual attention bestowed upon stu- dents is a strong feature at Linden Hall. Classes are small. The teachers find it possible, therefore, to be painstaking with each mem' ber of the class. The presence of the teacher during study hours affords an op' portunity for that judicious assistance that enables the student to get over difficult places and achieve results without the discourage' ment and worry that tend to break down the health of many a school girl. It also enables the teacher to render invaluable service in showing the pupil how .to study most advantageously. This lPage Sixteenj l..INDEN HALL arrangement combines most effectively the advantages of having a private tutor with the stimulus that comes from being in a class with others. Religious Influence It is the emphatic practical aim of Linden Hall to be Hrst of all, in tone and life, a thoroughly Christian school. The School is distinctly nonfsectarian, both in principle and practice, and although under the general supervision of the Moravian Church, no sectarian lines are drawn either in the selec' tion of teachers or in the admission of students. Practically all denominations are represented in the student body and faculty. Chapel services are held every morning, and attended by the entire school. Evening prayers are held by each group in the group sitting'room. On Sunday morning Sunday School is conducted and later the school attends church service in a body. At 6 p. m. a brief Vesper service is held in the Chapel, addressed by the Prinf cipal or by some visitor who has a special message for the girls. A course in Bible Study is a regular part of the curriculum. To encourage our students by precept and example, to strive to embody in their life and character the ideals and principles set forth.in the life and teaching of Jesus Christ is a definite part of our aim. Rules All the rules for the general conduct of pupils are based upon the following principles: Wherever people live together, there must be certain rules of conduct which all accept andobeyg other' wise there will be confusion and disorder. Such rules must be so manifestly just and reasonable in their spirit and demands that every thoughtful and rightfminded person accepts them as a matter of course and submits to them cheerfully. The highest rule of social and personal conduct is the Golden Rule : Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Those who are not willing to be governed by such rules and who do not respond to the efforts to win their acceptance of them are dismissed. The monthly report rendered the Principal and, through him, l:Page Seventeenj LINDEN HALL to parents or guardians, takes conduct as well as classfwork into consideration. In Beautiful Open Country Linden Hall is fortunate in the matter of location. Lititz is situated in Southeastern Pennsylvania, in the heart of Lancaster County. This County is known as the Garden Spot in a State which abounds in beautiful landscape. It is a thriving town of be' tween 4000 and 5000 inhabitants. It not only lies cradled in natural beauty, but also bears upon it the impress of the high purposes which actuated its founders. It is of especial historic interest in that buildings, still standing near the School, were used for hospital purposes for the Revoluf tionary army during the trying winter at Valley Forge, 1777f1778. It is peculiarly attractive as a seat for a boarding school for girls and young women. Its neatness, cleanliness, and beauty invite the admiration of visitors. It is famous also for its abundant springs of pure water from which the School is supplied. The School occupies an attractive site at one end of the town. Its campus stretches out into the open country. Witlun easy reach of several thriving cities, the students may, on occasion, combine the opportunities of the city with the advantages of the country. Easily Reached by Patrons Lititz is easily reached from any point on either the Pennsylf vania or Reading Railroad systems or their connections. There are six daily trains on the Reading Railroad. Trolley cars connect with Lancaster, which is on the main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The cars pass the Pennsylvania Railroad depot and carry baggage as well as passengers. Lititz is eight miles from Lancaster. Chair cars are attached to certain Pennsylvania Railroad trains for the exclusive use of Linden Hall students. Good auto roads lead into Lititz from all points. ' Whenever it is requested, students will be met at Lancaster or Reading. Students coming from foreign parts will be met, on request, in New York or Philadelphia. fPage Eighteenj E Q T174 Ciluf Cfnfz Helfm lv Dcwlnp lfve lwllffcllf Giffv of In Mwllfiwu .md Elll'fL'l7?,l ffm Lifc 'ff lin Sfbfhlf Entmnre in flue Cu,w1le'.' ll Huy HUHIFOIIIUIAJ Mum' Ge'lI6'1'aIf1N1v of Girly Io .Jn Enlarged and Enrirbed Life The Gym -Demied lo Health-Building and Rew'e.11irnz The Vm'rity.

This department is in charge of teachers who have the true mother instinct. They devote themselves with sympathy, patience, and kindness to their noble work. Linden Hall makes a specialty of caring for girls of primary and grammarfschool ages. It provides for them a happy and com' fortable home. Thus, when circumstances make it necessary for parents to send daughters of youthful age away to school, they may be placed in Linden Hall with the utmost assurance that nothing will be left undone to promote their physical and moral welfare. To the casual observer it is evident that the school succeeds in an unusual degree in providing a normal, healthy, and happy life for its younger charges. They bear upon them the stamp of physi' cal wellfbeing. They also give evidence of a happy and contented frame of mind. ' The lowest usual age for admission is seven years, though, under special circumstances, still younger girls may be admitted. Buildings of Classic Charm The School buildings, arranged in a manner which reminds the visitor of the classic quadrangle, occupy a retired situation, fronting on a tastefully planted campus. Their substantial characf ter, as well as the beauty of their simple outlines, invest them with peculiar charm. In harmony, rather than in contrast with this classic beauty, is the spirit of modern life to be found in classfrooms, in the gymnasium, on the athletic field, and on the adjacent campus. Chapel The beautiful Chapel occupies a commanding situation at the entrance to the grounds. This gem of church architecture is the gift of the late G. W. Dixon, of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, as a me' morial to his daughter, Mary Dixon, who was graduated in the class of 1879 and died April 4, 1882. It was dedicated February 24, 1885. Beautiful art windows and tablets, in memory of the donor and of former principals, enhance the beauty of the auditorium. fPage N ineteenj LINDEN HALL On the ground floor of the Chapel, beneath the auditorium, the Music Department of the School finds its home. The Hall and Castle The main buildings, the Hall and the Castle, stand at right angles to each other. They are substantial stone and brick struc' tures, erected at a time when the cost of material and labor did not tempt men to skimp the use of either. They have been thoroughly modernized without destroying the charm of age. In these build' ings are located the omce, diningfrooms, classfrooms, study halls and dormitories. The rooms and halls are large and cheerful. Wide, easy stair' cases lead to the upper floors. Large, ample verandas, facing the pleasure grounds in the rear, afford opportunities for outdoor exercise when the weather is in' clement, and are frequently used as openfair classfrooms. Gymnasium A Memorial Auditorium and Gymnasium was erected under the patronage of alumnae, patrons, and friends of the institution in 1907. The cornerfstone was laid by Governor Edwin S. Stuart of Pennsylvania in the presence of a large company of distinguished guests. The main floor of the building contains a memorial hall' way, the auditorium and gymnasium floor, and a large stage for conceit, entertainment, and lecture purposes. Bowling alleys, lock' ers, shower baths, the laboratory of the Domestic Science Depart' ment and the chemical and physical laboratories are located beneath. The classfrooms of the Secretarial Department are also located in this building. Swimming Pool Among the equipment that is available for students is a mod' ern, upftofdate swimming pool, twenty by fifty feet, with a maxi' mum depth of eight feet. It is lined with white tile and equipped with all the latest sanitary devices, filters, etc., to protect the health of the user. It is located on the first floor of the new addition to the Castle, fPage T-wentyj LINDIEN HALL known as the Annex, and is therefore accessible to students from their living quarters without going out of doors, thus eliminating the danger of taking cold that would otherwise attend the swimmer in cold weather. Shower baths and dressingfrooms are located conveniently, adjacent to the pool. The pool is in charge of an expert swimming teacher, and it will be open at fixed hours. All bathers will be ref quired to wear regulation grey bathing suits. Comfort and Safety I All the buildings are connected with one another, so as to obviate the necessity of exposure in passing from one building to another. They are heated with steam supplied by a central heating plant containing a battery of Ideal Type A boilers equipped with Ray oil burners, the Webster vacuum system is used and provides an additional guarantee of ample heating. The sanitary arrange' ments are thoroughly modern, having been replaced only recently. The lighting is electrical, and the arrangement of the lights is ac' cording to modern and scientihcally approved methods, so as to subject the students to the least possible eye strain. There is at all times an abundant supply of cold and hot water. The lirefprotection is more than ample. Numerous wide stair' cases offer abundant means of easy exit. The firefescapes provide additional safety. Frequent fire drills serve to accustom the girls to emptying the buildings in perfect order, almost instantly. Modern appliances for the extinguishing of fire are liberally supplied through' out the buildings. The Emily Tietze Memorial Library A ine library and readingfroom is a much used and greatly appreciated pan: of the school equipment. A wing of the main building was set apart and renovated for this purpose. Steel stacks accommodating 6500 volumes were installed. Starting with a fine nucleus of books, new volumes are constantly being added. It aims to be an upfto-date, effective library, fully meeting all lPage Twenty-onel LINDEN HALL the demands that can be made upon it by the needs of the students. A separate alcove containing works of reference is of great help to those who wish to gather material for essays or to supplement their textfbook information. The magazine rack and reading tables are supplied with all that is best in the magazine world. The library has been catalogued according to a standard sys- tem, thereby increasing its eifectiveness. A librarian is in charge. In honor of a teacher who gave more than fifty years of effecf tive service to the school, the library is known as the Emily Tietze Memorial Library. The library is open at all times, when students are free to use it. Thirty Acres for Recreation Probably no feature of Linden Hall is appreciated and enjoyed more by its students than its beautiful and secluded campus, thirty acres' extent. Stately ancient trees, shaded walks and sheltered seats are attractive features of the older portion of the campus. Here also is to be found the delightful Stone Terrace, overarchedby great elms, from which one may view the shaded square below. And here, too, is the beautifully landscaped sunken garden, with its fountain and its pool wherein goldhsh disport themselves, and its multicolored stepping stones that lead from one delight of color and of beauty represented by shrubs, trees, and flowers, to another. Here also the Pergola, festooned with roses and wisteria, offers its sheltered retreat. A bit further on a rustic bridge beckons and affords access to other beauties to be discovered and enjoyed beyond. , Over yonder a stucco bridge of beautiful design leads into the newer portion of the campus with its wide open spaces. Before us stretches a path that leads between shrubbery and trees to the artis- tic pavilion which crowns yonder hilltop, a spot where cool breezes invite to rest while the eyes drink in the beauties round about. It is impossible for a girl to spend her school days amid such surroundings of natural beauty without imbibing an abiding love for that which is beautiful in nature. The beautiful campus lures the Linden Hall girl into the- open where sunshine and nature bestow upon her the gift of health. lfPage Twenty-twoj I LINDEN HALL Laundry The School maintains its own laundry in a separate building. It is equipped with modern appliances electrically operated. The excellent quality-of work done is frequently commented upon by patrons. Departments and Courses of Study The School is organized into four general departments-the Primary, the Intermediate, the Academic, and the Graduateg the latter offering attractive courses to high school graduates. It has, in addition, the following special departments: the Departments of Music, Art, Elocution, Home Economics, and the Secretarial De' partment. It is possible, therefore, for a student at Linden Hall not only to acquire a wellfbalanced secondary education, but also to pursue an advanced course, and to specialize along certain lines. The Primary Department The course in this department is designed to meet the needs of the first four years of a girl's school life. It is coming to be recognized that these years of school life are in some respects the most important of all, since they serve to estab' lish mental habits that will either prove a great help or an equal hindrance. Therefore, the most skilled teachers are sought for this department, and the wisest and most effective methods are employed. The course includes the usual branches: Reading, Spelling, Writing, Dictation, Elementary Grammar and Composition, His' tory, Arithmetic, Nature Study, Geography, Drawing, Sewing, and General Information. The Intermediate Department The course of studies arranged for this department corresponds, in general, with the work done in the grammar grades of the public school. Four years are usually required to complete satisfactorily fP:ge Twenty-tbreej , LINDEN HALL the work outlined. Every eifort is made to give the students in this department a thorough gras of the subjects taught. The success of the stu ent in the next department will depend in large measure upon the thoroughness of the work done at this stage. In arranging this course the standards of the Department of Public Instruction of Pennsylvania were given full weight. To enter this department a pupil must have had the full equiva' lent of the course offered in the Primary Department.

The list of books offered by the Pennsylvania Department of Education is used as a guide. I The Academic Department Four courses of study are offered in this department: a College Preparatory Course, a General Course, a Home Economics Course, and a Music Course. Upon the satisfactory completion of either of these courses a diploma is awarded. For admission to this department it is necessary that the student shall have had the equivalent of the course offered in the Intermedif fPage Twenty-fourj LINDEN ,HALL ate Department. Students are admitted to advanced standing in the courses of this department, according to evidences presented of work done in some other institution of equal grade. College Preparatory Course This course fully meets the entrance requirements of all the colleges of our country. The school's certificates are accepted by a number of these institutions in place of entrance examinations. Under the new plan the leading colleges require from all students examinations in certain branches and certificates in others. The student who does satisfactory work in this course is pre' pared to meet these requirements. A grade of eighty per cent. must be attained by the student in each subject to be entitled to rec' ommendation for admission to college. A number of electives are offered in this course. Choice in each instance will need to be made according to the specific require' ment of the college the student plans to enter and the particular course she wants to pursue. Attention is called to the advisability of taking the examinaf tions of the College Entrance Examination Board so as to avoid unnecessary strain. For outline of course see page 28. General Course This course differs from the foregoing, chiefly in that it omits the study of Latin and places additional emphasis upon Modern Languages, Sciences, and History. The choice between the two courses will depend very largely upon the predilection of the student or of those who decide the mat' ter for her. This course is elastic. A number of subjects are offered for choice. This course will also prepare the student for entrance into those colleges which do not demand Latin. For full outline of the course, see page 28. fPage Twenty-fivej LINDEN HALL Home Economics Course . This course has been plamied to afford students the opporf tunity to acquire a high school education that is practical as well as cultural. It retains the most essential subjects of the academic Sourse, but adds instruction in matters that relate to household uties. It aims to enable a girl to acquire a large measure of theoretical knowledge and of practical skill that will be invaluable to her as a future homefmaker and homefkeeper. The intensely practical nature of this course and the breadth of its scope will be evident from the outline of it given on page 28, and from the detailed description of the separate subjects found under the general title, Department of Home Economics, page 36. Students who have taken one or more years of high school work can be also fitted into this course. For high school graduates the Advanced Home Economics Course described elsewhere is recommended. The Music Course A large percentage of the students who pursue some other course take up the study of the Organ or Piano or Voice as an addi' tional subject. Encouragement is offered them to do so, since an understanding of music and the ability to perform upon some in' strument or to sing is a source of much pleasure and enriches life. The above course, however, is designed for those students who have special musical gifts and who want to devote more time to the subject than is possible for those taking a full academic course. It eliminates all but the most essential of the academic subjects, thus allowing ample time for daily practice and for the study of the technique, theory, and history of music. It will be found suitable to the needs of those who wish to study music for its own sake and for the pleasure they may derive therefrom. fPage Twenty-sixj The Splayb of Wfater and Shouts of Glee are Heard Daily from 3-5 P.

A This course involves an extra charge to cover the expense of individual instructors in Music. Outline of this course will be found on page 29, and the details of the music subjects of this course are set forth under Music Def partment, page 38. High school graduates may take this course by substituting more advanced work for the academic subjects offered. Partial Course In special cases, owing to poor health or other good reasons, it may seem inadvisable for the student to take either of the preceding courses in their entirety. To meet the need of such cases, a special course will be arranged, on consultation, according to individual requirements. Partial-course students are not candidates for grad' uation. No diploma is awarded, but a certificate is granted, giving full credit for the work done. fPage Twenty-swnnj LINDEN HALL Outline of Courses College Preparatory General Academic Home Economics English Q41 - 5 Bible Q15 English Q41 Bible Q11 English Q41 Bible Q 1 1 W Ancient History Q51 Ancient History Q51 Household U Latin Q 51 General Science Q 5 1 Arithmetic Q5 1 .

IPage Twenty-ninej LINDEN HALL Description of Studies English . This department is conducted with a twoffold object: QD to enable the student to gain such a command of good English that she may speak and write clearly and correctly, QZJ to help her to achieve the ability to read correctly, understandingly, and with appreciation of the best in literature. Grammar and Composition To attain the first object, special attention is paid to the essen' tials of English grammar and to themefwriting. Written and oral composition forms a part of the weekly program, throughout the course, and special attention is given to the principles governing punctuation, the use of words, sentence structure, and paragraph' ing. The written work is varied in form. Letterfwriting, narra' tion, description, simple exposition, and argument are practised. The themes are chosen from current events, from general reading, from the pupi1's own experiences, or from the storehouse of her imagination. In all written work correct spelling and grammatical accuracy will be insisted upon. Literature The second object is achieved by means of fa, a course in reading, covering a list of standard books, and fbi a thorough study of a carefullyfselected number of such books. Selected portions of noted authors' works are committed to memory and students are trained to read aloud. Firn Year-Advanced Grammar and Composition, Speaking and Writing English, Herz- bergkand Lewin, American Literature, Literature and Life, Greenlaw Elson Keck, Boo I. Second Year-Rhetoric and Composition, Speaking and Writing English, Herzberg and Lewin, American Literature, Literature and Life, Greenlaw and Stratton, Book II.

Fourth Year-Theme Writing, Wridng and Speaking, Baldwin, English Literature, Lit- erature and Life, Greenlaw and Miles, Book IV. IfPage Tbirtyj LINDEN HALL Bible The object had in view in this course is to enable the student to acquire an intelligent knowledge of the Book and its contents and an appreciation of the literary excellence and beauty to be found therein. Selected passages are memorized. Fim Year.-The first year is devoted to Old Testament history. Hurlbut's Outline Studies of the Old Testament is used but constant reference is made to the Bible. Second Year.-The life of Christ, the life of St. Paul, and the growth of the early Church are made the basis of study during the second year. Hurlbut's Outline Studies of the New Testament is the text that is used. Tbird Year.-The study of the Christian church from Bible times to the present is the main maint of emphasis during the third year. The study of the history of the Bible as a ok also falls into this period. 1-lurlbut's Study of the Christian Church is used as a guide. Fourtb Year.-The history and literature of the New Testament engages the attention of the students throughout the fourth year. Different books are analyzed and outlines are made. The aim is to show their value and application to the present time. Bach student will need a good reference Bible with helps. Mathematics The study of mathematics has a twoffold value, practical and educational. It tends to develop the reasoning powers and, at the same time, gives the student a working knowledge of principles that may be applied in later life. The course meets the requirements for college entrance. First Year.-Algebra to fractions, Milne and Downey, Firrt Year Algeimzg or Household Arithmetic. Second Year.-Algebra completed, Milne and Downey, Second Courre in Algebra. Third Year.--Plane Geometry completed, Errentialr of Plane Geometry, Smith. History A knowledge of history is necessary to a right understanding and appreciation of our presentfday institutions.

Graduate Department -This department meets the needs of a large class of High School Graduates who do not plan to go to College. It offers them the op- portunity to spend a very profitable year or two in further equipping themselves for life, while at the same time enjoying the cultural and social advantages of boardingfschool life. The student may elect to continue the pursuit of some of the academic subjects which have especially interested her in High School and combine with them the study of Music, or Home Eco' nomics, or Stenography and Typewriting, or she may choose to take an advanced course in Household Economics or in Secretarial studies. Some will elect one or another of the following courses in their en' tirety, others will want a combination of work. There is suliicient flexibility in this department to meet a wide range of needs. Advanced Academic Course The following is a suggestive outline of a course covering two years. It is suiliciently elastic to meet a wide range of needs. fPage Thirty-tbreej LINDEN HALL A minimum of twenty periods per week is required. A diploma is awarded upon the satisfactory completion of this course.

'See Terms for Extra Branches, page 47. Vocational Courses Circumstances are constantly arising, under which young women are unexpectedly thrown on their own resources. Most pitiful is their case if their early training has not prepared them against such a contingency. No young woman's schooling should be considered finished until she has received the special training in some line of work that could, in case of need, be readily turned into a means of selffsupport. It is the duty of parents-one that cannot be urged too strongly upon them-to make provision for this need in planning for the education of their daughters. This special training should follow the completion of the highf school course or of its equivalent. Secretarial Course This course is designed to it young women to fill positions as private secretaries, and thus to open for them a door into a Held of service in which they may always command good positions.

The training received in this course will be most serviceable to a woman in later life, even though she should never have occasion to use it as a means of livelihood. The course covers two years. It includes Stenography, Type' writing, Bookkeeping, Business Law, Correspondence, use of filing system and card index, Addressograph, Adding Machine, and Mul' tigraph. In short, a thorough drill is given in the mechanical and technical work of an oihce. It is preferable that students, before attempting this course, should have had the equivalent of a high school education and be well advanced in English. ' However, this course may also be adapted to the needs of those who must combine their high school education and business train' mg. It can also be adjusted to the needs of the student for whom it is possible to spend only one year at school. A diploma is given only to those who cover the entire course. All others receive a certiiif cate. An outline of this course will be found on page 29. Advanced Home Economics Course This course is open to students who have finished a four years' high school course or its equivalent. It enters most thoroughly into every phase of household duties and affords abundant opportunity to test, by practical application, the theoretical knowledge that is gained. It affords young women the opportunity to become thoroughly roficient in the practical duties of home life or to lit themselves to become acceptable teachers of Household Economics in public or private schools. Two years are required to complete the full course and to earn the diploma of this department. Acceptable practicefteaching must be done before the diploma will be awarded. The elementary classes aford ample opportunity for practice-teaching. Onefyear students will be given a certiicate crediting them with the work done. A full outline of this course will be found on page 29. For detailed statements of subjects offered see Department of Home Economics below. lPage Thirty-fivej LINDEN HALL Department of Home Economics The early establishment of a strong department of Domestic Science and Arts at Linden Hall Seminary was in harmony with the aims that this school has always kept uppermost, viz., to develop womanliness and make of its girls homeflovers and eflicient home' makers. The day has passed when it was necessary to dwell at length upon the need for adequate training and equipment of woman for the important duties of homefmaking and home-keeping. This course not only enables the one who has taken it to apply scientific knowledge and ready skill to her daily tasks in the home, but also serves to impress upon her the worth and value of accom' plishments which contribute to the comfort and health of a house' hold, so that she will no longer look upon household tasks as a form of drudgery. This department is most comfortably housed on the Hrst floor of the modern gymnasium building. The large kitchen' laboratory, sewing and lecture room, practice dining room, and practice laundry are equipped with all the appliances necessary to make the instruction practical and efficient. ' The department is in charge of a competent and thoroughly trained teacher and able assistants. A brief outline of the subjects offered in this department follows: Cookery 1. Source of foods and classifications, care, cooking and serv' ing of foods. Use of ranges, care of refrigerator, etc. Fimdamental principles of cookery. A 21.

The study in technique and theory extends throughout the course. The department has a complete equipment. A twofmanual pipe organ, numerous pianos, a large number of isolated practice rooms and a wellffurnished library, which includes numerous books of reference, piano and orchestral scores, and a large collection of standard works for ensemble playing, offer special advantages to the student. Frequent opportunities' are afforded to hear eminent singers and musicians in recital in our own splendid auditorium and in nearby cities. Good musical taste is thus cultivated almost un' consciously, and high ideals are established and stimulate the student to greater effort. Resident students of this department, who are not enrolled also in one of the other departments, will be required to select from one of them a sufficient number of studies profitably to occupy the time not devoted to music. Attention is called in this connection to the courses offered in English, or in French and German, in the Aca' demic or Graduate Departments. The work of the Music Depart' ment must, in the nature of the case, be adapted to the needs of each studentg only general outlines can be followed. I History of Music A thorough study is made of all periods in the history of music. Essentials in Music History by Tapper'Goetschius, and Dickin' son's History of Music ' are the texts followed in this course. Op' portunity is offered for collateral reading and research, suitable texts are selected by head of department. fPage Thirty-eigbtj LINDEN HALL Theory of Music The course in Theory includes Harmony, Counterpoint, Com' position, the reading of scores for String Quartettes and Pull Or' chestras, and the study of Instrumentation. Four years are required to cover the course in the Theory of Music. The entire course is embraced in the following outline: 1. The Rudiments: Notation, scales, intervals, melody writing. 2. Melody writing continued. Elementary harmony. 3. Advanced harmony, modulation and original work. 4. Elementary counterpoint, form, analysis. Organ Course This course is open to students who have had at least the equiva' lent of two years of the piano course. The aim is to fit students to become competent organists and choir masters. Careful training is given in all that has to do with the intelligent performance of church music, voluntaries and accom' paniment. There is systematic drill in technique, registration and improvisation. The student has access to a large twofmanual pipe organ. The following gives the detail of the work on the organ only. The student must in addition attend the classes in Musical History and Theory of Music, etc. The study of the organ may be taken as a part of the Music course outlined on page 29, or it may be pursued in conjunction with other studies chosen by the student and ap' proved by the Principal. 1. Whidng's Six Months at the Organ g Homer's Pedal Studies , hymns. 2. Buck's Pedal Studies g pieces by Smart, Rheinberger, Tours, Duboisg accom- paniment of church services and hymns. 3. Bach's Shorter Preludes and Fuguesg Mendelssohn's Sonatasg pieces by Lemare, Hollins, Lemmensg accompaniment of solo voices and chorus. 4. Bach's Toccatas, Preludes and Fuguesg Widor Symphonies and other studies, and pieces by more modern composers. Pianoforte Course In the nature of the case this course must be elastic to meet varying degrees of attainment. Some students will be ready to take up advanced work, others will need to start at the beginning. The outline below is therefore little more than suggestive. just where ' fPage Thirty-nincj LINDEN HALIL the student is to begin will be determined by the head of the Depart' ment after testing her proiciency. Progress will also depend upon the student's capability and application. The study of the Piano may be taken as a part of the Music course outlined on page 29, or it may be pursued in conjunction with other studies selected by the student and approved by the Principal. Grade 1.-Technical exercises for the acquirement of perfect control of the muscles of the fingers, hands, and armsg scale in simple forms, easy studies and pieces by Diller and Quail, Gaynor, and Gurlitt. . Grade 2.-Major and Minor scales in various forms, studies by Hanon, Czemy' and Hellerg sonatinas by Clementi and Kullak, Gaynor Pedal Studies. Grade 3.-Scales, arpeggios and octavesg Bach's Inventionsg Haydn's and Mozart's Sonatas: Mendelssohn's Songs Without Wordsg Schumann's Kinderscenen. Grade 4.--Czerny's Art of Finger Dexterityg Bach's Preludes and Fuguesg Beethoven's Sonatasg Whidng's Pedal Studiesg pieces by Chopin, Brahms, Liszt, Greig, Mac- Dowell, etc. Violin Course The details of this course will be planned for each student. Vocal Course Two objects are kept in constant view throughout the course: Voiceftraining and Mastery of Vocal Technique. Correct breath' ing, beauty and resonance of tone, correct pronunciation and good enunciation are aimed at, and to this end individual attention is iven. g As soon as students have progressed far enough to make this advisable, they are given frequent opportunity to appear in public at Sunday evening services and concerts, in order that they may gain experience and acquire confidence. The students are also ad' mitted to weekly Chorus Class. The student must attain to aadegree of proficiency that will meet with the approval of the Musical Facr ulty, before she can be graduated from this course. The study of the Voice may be pursued as a part of the Musical Course outlined on page 29, or it may be elected as a special in conjunction with other courses. The following is a brief outline of the Vocal Work: 1. Correct Carriage, lessons in breathing, Hexibility of tongue and tone production, preliminary tonal exercises, major and minor scales and intervals, scale building and triad ormations are taught. IPage Foftyj LINDEN HALL A Studies: Sieber 36 Vocalises, Op. 93 and 943 Easy Songsg Sight singing of simple, easy exercises. 2.

Songs by classical and modem composers. Arias from French and Italian Operas. Certificate The Department's Certificate is awarded to the students upon satisfactory completion of the prescribed course in Piano or Organ, together with the course in the History and Theory of Musicg and to vocal students upon completion of the prescribed course in Voice, in History and Theory of Music, together with three grades of the piano course and at least one year's work of academic grade in French or German. A public recital must be given by the student, prior to the awarding of the certiicate. Department of Art This department is housed in a studio erected especially for this purpose under the supervision of Miss Virginia Gerhart, formerly the head of the department. It is most admirably adapted, both as to location and equipment, to the work for which it was designed. Excellent op ortunities are afforded those who desire to study and become pro cient in faj Drawing fpencil, crayon and inkj, Chl Painting fwater color, oil and chinaj, fel Modeling in clay. Free' hand drawing from models and natural objects may be chosen as an elective in the lower Academic grades. The History of Art and Architecture is taught, and frequent op rtunities are afforded all pupils to see and hear that which may aiclyih the cultivation of correct artistic judgment and taste by means of illustrated and other lectures upon this subject. IPage Forty-onej LINDEN HALL Through the generosity of Mr. Herbert Spencer Greims of New York, a friend and patron of Linden Hall, the Seminary has become the repository of the Herbert Spencer Greims Loan Collec' tion of pictures and objects of artistic and historic value. For rates, see Terms for Extra Branches, on page 44. Department of Expression Expression is an art. It is the aim of this department to cul' tivate correct habits of speech, to teach students to read simply, truthfully, humanly, to help them interpret life and the beautiful in literature, and to impart the interpretation to others, to develop the voice and action so that all parts may respond harmoniously to each impulse of thought and feeling. The proper use of the speaking voice is a matter that no woman seeking culture can afford to neglect. To be able to express one s self clearly and forcefully in public and private is worth all the effort that is needed to acquire the art. The course includes the rudiments of elocution, special voice training, gesticulation, and pantomime. Selections are memorized and prepared for public rendition. Plays and entertainments are given at intervals during the year, to train for stage action and dra' matic art. All students in the Intermediate Department take class work once a week in this department, as a regular part of their course. Those desiring more advanced work than can be done in this elef mentary class will be given private lessons or may take the advanced course in small classes. For rates for advanced work see Terms for Extra Branches on page 44. H Department of Physical Culture A This department is under trained leadership and has as its object the harmonious physical development of the students. Classes are conducted throughout the year. The work consists of nastic drills, which are a combination of the German and Swedizhnmethf ods of physical culture. Special attention is given to special needs. All students are required to attend the classes and take part in the drills, unless excused on recommendation of the family or school IPage Forty-twoj IfnlH1I.1i11 .md ffm' Pun! llufww CMM lfixfv Divfmrf Tfwm JIU Unbwz Bmuly Reigrzr Lmd Cwum lbs QllKt'll nf 11.1.1 A Favorite Reireal Garlunded wilh Rofex and Wifzeria On Slarmy Dayx Bowling Afford!

The hysical director has charge also of the sports and games, which incllide basketball, tennis, hockey, etc. The gymnasium costume consists of a navyfblue onefpiece gym suit and white tennis shoes. When desired, these articles will be ordered for the students after their arrival. Honors and Prizes Commencement Honors can be competed for only by the stu' dents who are taking a full regular course in the Academic Depart' ment. A Gold Four is awarded at Commencement time, each year, to those full-year boarding pupils who have a satisfactory conduct record, and who are adjudged by principal and faculty as having en' deavored to carry out not only the letter but also the spirit o the principle of conduct, as set forth in the catalogue. The Gold Four is a gold seal with the figure four em' bossed thereon, and is the most highlyfprized honor awarded at the Commencement. In the Senior Grade the Diploma and oilicial classfpin take the place of the Gold Four, as neither Diploma nor pin can be award' ed to any whose conduct is unsatisfactory. The class of 1925 established a fund, the annual income of which, 52100, will be awarded to that member of the Senior Class who is adjudged by the Principal and Faculty to stand highest in conduct, character and achievement. A number of special prizes are awarded. Scholarships The Alumnae Association offers the daughters of alumnae the income of a 512,000 Scholarship Fund, in memory of the Reverend H. A. Brickenstein, Principal from 1873 to 1892. Expenses The charge for boarding pupils for the entire scholastic year is 5800. This covers QD Board, Q22 Lodging, Q30 Laundry, K0 lPage Forty-tbrecj LINDEN HALL Tuition in any one of the regular or special courses, with the excep' tion of the Music Course in which there is an extra charge for piano, voice and organ, Q51 Chorus Singing, Q62 Physical Culture under a trained leader, Q71 Use of the gymnasium, Q81 Use of swimming pool, Q92 Pew Rent, QIOJ Attendance of a nurse in all minor cases of ailment. . The above does not include the athletic fee of S5 .00 per year, nor does it include a charge of 810.00 per year for laboratory sup' plies in Home Economics, Physics and Chemistry, and for type' writer rent in the Secretarial Department, and a 55.00 inlirmary fee. These extremely low rates as compared with the quality of the service and the character of the equipment are made possible only by Endowment. If the school were privately owned and had to pay a fair return on the investment in addition to paying its own way at least 3200.00 would have to be added to the present fees. Graduation Fee A charge of S15 .00 is made to cover diplomas, graduating pin, speakers, etc. Terms for Extra Branches QPer Year-J Marie Department-For two lessons a week.

Each girl is provided with a check book through which she may draw on her deposit for the above purposes. At the close of each month the cancelled checks are mailed to parents for their inspection. No check will be honored and no supplies furnished unless the student's bank card shows a credit in her favor. A strict enforcement of this rule tends to establish good financial habits on the part of the students. The bank was instituted to ob- viate the bad effects which any charge system necessarily has upon a girl who is fixing habits, and to give the students experience in handling a bank account. Spending Money It is not desirable that a school girl shall have a large allowance of spending money. There is little occasion for spending. In the case of the younger girls, who are still in the grades, arrangement will be made to pay them a small fixed sum out of the deposit made for in' cidentals. Q In the case of students of high school age a separate deposit for spending money may be made in the School Bank. This account is known as the Personal Account and may be drawn upon by check fa different colored check is usedj. The weekly amount to be drawn may be fixed by the parents or left to the option of the girl herself. In the latter case the school assumes no responsibility. It is urged, however, that all allowances be very moderate. Excess in this matter does not promote the welfare of the girls. Time of Payment Tuition charges, etc., for the entire year are due and payable upon entry. As a matter of convenience to patrons, however, two fPage Forty-fivej LINDEN HALL payments may be made: S450 at the beginning of the fall term, or at the time of entrance, and the balance on the first of February. All drafts or checks should be made payable to Linden Hall. Except by special agreement, made in writing, pupils are not entered for a shorter period than a full scholastic year, or for what remains of it at the time of entrance, and the fee will not he remitted in case of withdrawal or expulsion, except in cases of serious illness, when the loss will be equally divided. This is a distinct condition of the contract. No deductions are made for occasional absence or for expulsion. New upils are received at any time, if there is a vacancy, and are charged from date of admission to the end of the school year. Applications must be accompanied by an entrance fee of 525, which will be deducted from the tuition fee. It is forfeited, how' ever, if the pupil fails to enter. Business and social references are required. Suggestions and Regulations Dress Uniformity in dress is not considered desirable. The school aims at cultivating individuality, and believes that the taste of the individual should find expression in the matter of dress. It is re' quired, however, that all dresses be simple and modest, and in keep' ing with good taste. An elaborate wardrobe and expensive jewelry are alike out of place in a boarding school. Linden Hall discourages extravagance of every form. The wardrobes of the younger pupils are cared for by the teach' ers. The older girls are required to look after their own wardrobes, under the supervision of the teachers. All articles of dress should be marked in full, and legibly, to prevent mistakes or loss. The marking should be done with printed or woven name tapes. Confidential Communicants Parents are invited to make the Principal or his wife such conf idential communications as may aid them in understanding the special needs and characteristics of their daughters.

The Principal will allow those placed under his care to receive and read only those books and magazines of which he can approve. Callers The pupils may receive callers, other than relatives, only at stated times. All callers who are unknown personally to the Prin' cipal must bring letters of introduction, signed by the pupil's parents. Telegrams All telegrams should be addressed to the principal. Telephones The Seminary is connected with the local and longfdistance telephone. Students will, however, be called to the phone only during the hours of 12:30f1, 6f7 p. rn. and9f9:30 p. rn., except in cases of urgent need. Week-end Visits Weekfend visits interfere seriously with the routine of the School. They should therefore be very rare. Exceptional circumf stances only can justify more than one such visit in the periods be' tween vacations. Written permission from home is required. The Hnal decision rests with the Principal. No girl is permitted to spend a night with friends in town ex- cept in the company of her parents or other near relatives. Visiting in town is permitted, without chaperonage, only in the home of a relative. This also applies to Lancaster. lPige Forty-sevenj LINDEN HALL Calendar-1930-1931 Tuesday, September 16 Resident students report before 8:00 P. M.
