WALNUT HILL SCHOOL,

GENEVA, N. Y.

REV. DR. REED, PRINCIPAL.

THE School is pleasantly situated in a secluded place near the village of Geneva, about a mile and a half from the station of the N. Y. Central Railroad.

## TERMS AND VACATIONS.

The year is divided into three terms of 14 weeks each, beginning as follows:

The 1st on the second Monday of January.

“ 2d “ 4d “ May.

“ 3d “ third “ September.

THERE are two vacations of about four weeks each at the close of the first and second terms. There is also a short recess at Christmas.

## EXPENSES.

THE charges are $80 per term, to be paid in advance. This covers tuition, board, and ordinary washing and mending. By ordinary washing, is meant twelve pieces per week in the September and January terms, and eighteen pieces in May or summer term. Washing above this will be charged at the rate of fifty cents a dozen.

Books and Stationery are found by the boys. They can be furnished at the school at prices charged at the bookstore. Letter Stamps should be furnished from home.

It is most convenient that the boys furnish their own towels and napkins, which, with all their clothes, should be fully marked.

Clothing can be obtained in Geneva, if necessary; but it can be procured more advantageously at home. The boys are not allowed to contract any delts, and if any articles are needed, permission to purchase them must be first obtained from parents or guardians; to whom the bills will be immediately sent for settlement.

The boys need but little pocket money. If parents wish their children to have money, it is preferred that it be deposited with the principal, to be disbursed by him as he shall think proper. But no money will be advanced for this purpose.

There are no extra charges. Each boy is charged $1.50 per term for pew rent, which is paid to the church. As the benefit of the instruction in Music and Modern Languages is received only by a part of the boys, it is not just that those who do not receive it should be charged with it. The charge for Music and Modern Languages, therefore, is additional.—The charge for Music is $12 per term. For French, German, Spanish, Italian and Drawing, $10 each, per term.

Any damage done to the buildings or property is charged; and the occupant of a room is held responsible for the furniture.

## MISCELLANEOUS.

Each pupil should be provided with a Prayer Book, an octavo Bible, and a convenient Port-Folio.

Parents will feel the propriety of sending their children promptly to school at the commencement of the term; and no pupil is allowed to leave the school during term, except for reasons of absolute necessity. Frequent visits should be made by parents, as their influence is always useful.

The school is provided with an extensive Library, to which the boys have proper access.

A careful record is kept of the conduct and application of each pupil. Each recitation is strictly graduated.
