Hope's Alumni. The Alumni o f n ,)pe Q., lleg · are scattered o,·e r tho

face of the gl,>he. They ·arry t heir know led (Te and their training where,· r the.v locate. Nea rly every profes ion h:.s its q uota of Hope's representa ti,·cs. As far as we knO\V there is but on e o£ Hope's sons engaged in the

Bool£ Business. This is due perhaps to the fact that the other pro­

fessions and branches o( incl us t ry offer wider au van­tages. Of the many who can s ing. "Old llope. thy sons around t hee standing'', there is one who has ever re mained c lose to the scene of his college career and in ton h with the college boys and co1lego spirit. \\ e, therefore bespeak, in behalf of Illi:~RY \ANDER PLO l~G, '93, the goml· wilL and patronnge of all IJ ~J pe'~

Alumni. Books Are Nece~sity

to the professional man and college graduate. They are his tools, they contain the r1ourisluuent for his mind and soul. In these days when you are flooded with <·ir­culara of all sorts of books, and from all sources, w hv not inquire o[ Van der Ploeg whether be can furnish t.heru at the same reasonable price at which other A are offering them ?

Many of ou r fellow Alumni are doing this. Many more do not. It iR to these we appeal for hearty sup­port of the only business enterprise of its kind con­uc ted by a IIope Alumn us. Try it, for the sake of "Auld Lang Syne ., .

\Vhen in need 0£ anything in the line of hooks, Library Supplies, Typewrite rs, Church and Sunday School supplies, drop a card and you will get a-prompt reply.
