THE DARTMOUTH CO-OP

The first year of the Dartmouth Profit-Sharing Association has been a decided success, according to the statement of J. B. Butler '16 of Fort Dodge, lowa, president. Gross sales amounting to $25,000 were transacted during that period, in spite of the difficulties attending upon cramped store-quarters and inexperience in the work. Dividends will be declared to the stockholders in June upon the basis of their purchases during the year.

The store now includes three departments — furniture, sporting goods, and men's furnishings. The year's experience has made it possible to stabilize these lines of goods, besides introducing more system into the buying. Efficiency has been guaranteed through the direct aid of members of the Tuck School, both faculty and undergraduates.

The association will continue its business next year with a new management of students. Gray Knapp '12 as general manager, and A. L. Priddy '15, as treasurer will probably continue in office however.
