MAGAZINE CAMPAIGN
Photo by Miltiades

The magazine campaign ended
last week.
The total amount sold by the
School was a little over S3,1OO. The
goal was set at $4,000, which
means we missed our goal by $500.
Last year. the school sold some
thing over $4,000 worth. 1t is the
/. general talk that the load of SELL
ing the magazines was carried bv
certain ones while other students
did nothing.
The companies that we sold for
were the Curtis, the Crowell-Col-
lier and the Crowley.
The students selling the most
magazines for the different COM
panies were: Harry Swain of 1872
sold $81.05 worth for the Curtis
Company; Ellen ArgO of 1911. sold
$32.75 worth for the Crowell-Col-
lier Company; Tommy Adams of
Ill, sold $14875 worth. for Crow
ley Company and all other com
panies. Tommy Adams also sold
more magazines, than any other
student. having sold $164.75 worth
Altogether, $3.50 worth of mag
azines were sold for the Curtis
Company; $9S5.05 worth for Crow
ell-COllier, and $4,000 for Crow
ley Company and all other com.
panies.
The profit from the sale of these
magazines will go into the class
treasury of the 10th. 18th and 18th
grades, which did the selling.
The magazines subscribed for
will be received by you around the |
first of the year. The Christmas |
gift magazines will be received bv |
1t was thought that selling ma |
Sazines would be one of the best
ways to raise some money for tho
'lasses. Some of the students of
hese classes let their fellow
classmates down, by not doing
heir best in trying to make sales
In the future, let's all work to-
sether and try to do better Job
nan this time.
