CAUTION TO PARENTS—STUDENTS' FUNDS

The Business Agent will receive on deposit any funds parents may intrust to him to meet the expenses of their sons and daughters. No greater error can be commited than to send young -peofle from home with large amounts of spending money, without the authoritative care of some prudent friend. Half the dissipation in colleges springs from excessive allowances of money. Students have little real need for money beyond that required for fees, board bills, and.books. The attention of parents and guardians to this matter is earnestly requested, especially in the case of those students who are under age.
