The Scholastic year commences on the

bic supply, of rather dark color. and suitable
to each season, as jewelrv and all expensive
superfluous clothing are quite unnecessary
and useless. pink sun-bonnet for sum-
mer, and hood and cloak or shawl for their
daily walks in winter. II is required that all
letters addressed to the young ladies be post
paid.
The location is proverbially healthy as
the patrons Of the School can testify.
