CARRIERS NEED FUNDS THEY SAY

A delegation representing the boys who deliver your Palladium every evening, called on the editorial department and aired their financial woes. "Christmas is slipping up on us and, oh boy, we need the money," they chorused. "Now how can a boy buy Christmas cheer without any money? Now how can he?" they asked. And then they burst out with the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. They are highly Indignant Many of their customers are slacking In paving for that evening paper they so faithfully deliver every night, they eay Some of them have evidently forgotten that the newsboy ever needs money. They don't care, whether you give them a Christmas present Of course, the present wouldn't be refused, but what they want Is their money. "I don't see why we can't organize a newsboy's union," Earl Keisker said. Kefeker, only Tuesday, was a prince. But of course be wasn't a real prince. Only a "doll" prince in "Fl-Fi of the Toy Shop." Besides, even princes need money to buy Christmas cheer for eome one. Many customers are slacking In paying their bills, said the committee. "And we need the money, bad, mighty bad. Christmas Is coming," chorused Mike McMahan, Keisker, Wynne Evans, Claude Miller and William Warren Elliott. TO CREATE NEW JOB WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.
