THE UNIFORM OF THE SCHOOL.
Reading edition
The coat and pantaloons of very dark blue cloth; the coat single-breasted, to button to the throat, with ten gilt buttons, two upon the collar, placed three inches back—the collar to turn over, with the corners round.
For Summer, the dress suit is the dark blue coat and white pantaloons. That for common use should be gray, made of the material known as “youth’s mixt.” For very warm weather, brown linen or drilling.
Suits are made by Messrs. Thorne & Jarvis, 414 Broadway, New York, where the buttons, made expressly for the School, may be obtained.
Caps, of a particular pattern, designed for the School, are made by Mr. Mealio, 416 Broadway, New York.
N. B.—Those entering the School are not expected to discard their every-day clothing, but when worn out, to renew it with the uniform of the School.
