time of subscription is given of $4.50
to pay $2.00
if the student prefei-down and $2.50 by February 15. These
ore the same rates as. last year. The
Teasoa the difference of 50c is made
between "cash customers" and others
is the fact that a discount is given by
print era 'if material is sent in early
and by January 15, and if students are
willing to cooperate in the matter then
they are due some consideration. The
of the
discount of 50c is
cost of a book and that equals a fraction more than eleven per cent of the
sale price. Good interest on anyone's
money.
