Since then there has been a slight rise? in profits. Prices on several articles have gone up and this increase had helped increase the profits. The Little Store keys are also now well-hidden. Perhaps this deception will keeji the Little Store from losing so much money. Since the Little Store is a senior class project, the seniors are busy" thinking up other ways to earn money" to erase the deficit. Soon there will be a beauty contest, and it is hoped that the entire student body will back the project. The seniors are also selling address stickers. The cooperation of every one is needed in order that the seniors can erase their debt. If the Little Store continues to lose money, there is a great possi bility that it will be closed. If it is closed it will be a long time before it is opened again. It is up to the students to see that the Little Store stays open.
