Mr. Cunningham, making answer to the

tate, $S.G30 and his personal property

SNAP FOR THE JANITORS
THOSE IN CITY HALL ENJOY
CLEAN-UPS FROM WASTE PAPER.

The waste paper accumulations in the
Offices of the city and county officials
are considerable, and in year they
amount to many tons.
This apparently insignificant matter IS
n source of considerable revenue 10 the
janitors who have it in charge, and its
sale each month nets them an amount,
that while small is yet welcomed.
1t all goes TO the two janitors
who hold forth on the basement floor,
they receiving it as the baskets are
nightly emptfed. For this reason there IS
always considerable rivalry for the po-
sitions in that section of the building.
