In our Bookkeeping I class we prepared a project in the business cycle of the “Candy Shoppe” which actually operated for a week in Room 31 buying and selling merchandise on cash and credit. Josephine St. George was the head bookkeeper and all members of the class recorded the transactions. The proprietor was Carl Haaker; in charge of the credit department was Claire Rivard; of sales, Pauline Gosler and Teresa Boniface; and of purchases, Iris Gendron and Delphine Landry. Jane McHugh was sales agent. All mem- bers of the class were customers of the “Candy Shoppe.” Elizabeth Barbaro presents her deposit slip to bank teller. Constance Lamarine makes a purchase from Paul- ine Gosler while Teresa Boniface totals the day’s sales.

The “Candy Shoppe” Project Be. Josephine St. George checks with the proprietor, Carl Haaker. The Candy Shoppe 1s in the past, But it was wun while it did last. It taught us how to keep our books, To keep them well and with good looks. Our figures must be small and neat. Our pages clean and all complete. The selling in our shoppe was fun; I know it pleased just everyone. The bookkeepers did their very best, Now they deserve a good long rest; Oh, Candy Shoppe, we've set you free, Now you remdin...a memory. —Lillian Mancuso, 54
