midges 0} House Residence.— Students from out of town are required
in all cases, unless residing with near relatives, to occupy rooms in the Academy
rildj Students occupying such rooms avoid many distractions, come into

vtrv dose contact with the life of the school, and are more likely to regard the
school work as the one thing demanding their best efforts. They arc led to
cultivate a healthy spirit of self-reliance, and to gain from their fellow-studei
an enthusiasm for study and a knowledge of life. Not infrequently the best and
most lasting results of school life are derived from its associations. Rules for
house pupils are furnished on entrance.

Rooms and Furnishings.— Rooms are of different kinds and sizes. As a
rule the rooms are intended for two, using one double bed. The rooms in South
Hall have two single beds. For one pupil in a room, see p. 35- A11 rooms are
furnished with hardwood floors, beds, chairs, table, bureau, washstand, crockery,
and window shades. Students furnish rugs, sheds, pillow-cases 26x20, all bed
doihingy towels, napkins and napkin ring, knije, fork, spoon and lamp. All
articles must be plainly marked with name (not initials) with indelible ink.
