SAY IT AIN'T SO

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

For the second year in succession, the dividend check I have received from the Harvard Cooperative Society has been less than half the sum due according to the total of my purchases as verified by receipts. I can report that this is merely the second year only because I did not begin saving receipts before then; however, the reason I started keeping them was because for several previous years my dividend checks seemed quite small compared to my recollections of purchases made. I am glad to say that in both years the Harvard Cooperative Society immediately and without question paid the amount owing upon my presentation of the receipts, but I nevertheless call these errors to the attention of your readers, many of whom are members of the Coop, because the fact that they occurred during both of the only two years I have kept records leads me to suspect that mine is not a unique experience.
