THE WEEKLY is not an exception to the rule that newspapers owe their existence to their advertisers. Students, remember this when you do your trading. You will lose nothing by patronizing our advertisers, but will encourage them to be more liberal with us, and will thereby enable us to give you a better paper.

The public expression of an honest opinion benefits him who speaks as well as him who hears.
