Must this very worthâ€"while organization be discontinued? It all depends on the: friends of the shop and the amount of "thrift" that they bring in for the income of the shop is derived enâ€" tirely from the sale of "thrift." There are a few fixed expenses such as rent, light, etc., and the surplus over these goes to the charities that run the shop; and once a year a donâ€" ation is made to many other local organizations. & " ~_If there is not sufficient income to meet® the fixed expenses and leave enough surplus for the charities, ,tbe directors feel that it would be better to close the shop entirely. _ Undoubtedly everyone is Highland Park will agree that such a move would be too bad as the Thrift Shop has done so much good in all the years that it has been in operation. It not only is an outlet for getting: rid of clothes and household articles which have outlived their usefulness, but it gives an opportunity to others to buy these at very nominal cost. And the income in the years past has given very substantial help ?o the various charities interested in the organization. , Must this all be discontinued ? It will not be if sufficient "thrift" is brought us to warrant carrying on.

The costs at vanston and New Trier high schools|are now about the same as at eerfieldâ€" Shields, whereas in 1929â€" 930 the costs at Evanston and N Trier were less than at Deerfieldâ€"Shields, because classes here were larger than in the other two schools.
