This money, as before, must be used only for necessary school expenses. CLOTHING. The girls' Industrial Department is open for the benefit of young women who are seeking an education in this institution. They are furnished with work in proportion to their desire for employment and the demand for the article manufactured. Those who buy garments of their manufacture, may be sure of honest and well-made articles. The Board of Trustees have decided that male students shall be uniformed so far as able to pay for the uniform: and a plain sack coat and pantaloons, of blue cloth, with a cap of the same, have been selected. Those articles will be furnished here at less price than they, or other goods of the same quality, can be obtained elsewhere. It is therefore expected that pasents, instead of purchasing suits for their sons before sending them home, will allow them to purchase uniforms after their arrival at the Institute, as it is desired that all should be in uniform. The school uniforn when once procured is to be worn at drills, inspections, and on public occasions. Young men who procure other clothing while at the Institute, will be expected to purchase its uniform. The purchase of other clothing by students who have no uniform, when, without undue sacrifice they could procure uniforms, will subject them to discipline. Clothing so bought cannot be worn at school without special permission. Girls should bring a waterproof and overshoes. COST OF UNIFORM. Coat, $8.00 to $5.75; according to size.
