desire lo say ri word to the students. The
short time that we have spent in endeavor
ing to bring the college news before the
voiding public has been one of extreme
pleasure, and although not as long as we

duty, we have gained many friends, and
have been ablo to notice the intetest taken
by the students in their college paper,
bccoud to none in the west. To those
who have so kindly furnished us with
items of inteiest, we return our thanks,
and ask that they show our successor the
hame degree of kindness and interest
which they have shown us. For the suc
cess of the Studknt depends upon you
and you alone. Make it your business to
write for the Studknt, and have the ex
treme plcasuic of saying that you have
helped build up and make the finest col
lege paper in the land.
