In 1929 more than 279,000 boys under the age of 18 were selling and delivering newspapers in the United States. Most of them were schoolboys engaged in outdoor work an average of an hour and a half a (day. Members of the circulation mana- ger’s organization have adopted a with health . authorities and boys’ parents in giving the newsboy ad- vantages in health and business training over youths who have no regular activity in leisure hours.

Marked at exactly HALF of the ORK AS BUSINESS MEN laws have suggested a uniform state child labor act that would put the newsboy in a class by him- self. Their suggestion provides that boys under 16 who work at street trades must comply with legal | school requirements, must obtain & permit and wear a badge. It would exempt, however, the |newsboys in line with the circula- tion men’s belief that the news- paper boy should not be considered as engaged in a street trade. To determine whether newspaper | selling was detrimental to scholas- |tic standing of boys in Philadel- phia a survey of 14 elementary schools was made. Among the newsboys the promo- | tion percentage record was over 38 per cent, while the percentage |among other boys was 85.8. ——————— MOOSE MASQUERADE Next Saturday night in Moose Hall.
