Ofttiines have the various editors ot the Studknt, knowing nnd appreciating tho value o!' the paper, and realizing the irksome and dillluuit task of publishing it, depending on down town oillces for publication, advocated tiie purchase of a press.

With it press, the Studknt will immediately be come independent, will be able to pur chase its own type, of which it now stands , in need, will give employment to more students, placing the college pa per, which is now, far from being it burd en, upon 'ts own foundation, which will Rfefl SHShSSu ZSi
