our 7ft boys had $6240 in sales."

boys." %. W.E.D., West Haven, Ct.

back on the reliable on r.Jom-Wat. Though
we receive other fund-raisirlfcanaterials, they

a good, reliable company, and we <ton't ex-
pect to change. Our average sale pent^y is
$126." L.W.G., Lehightonr

a company that shows the personal interest
