GIRLS FOR MESSENGERS
\ FAMINE OF BOYS IN CHICAGO
telegraph and Telephone Compa-
MES Considering Availability
Of Employing Girls.

Special to The Journal.
Chicago, April Messenger girls may soon
take the place Of messenger boys This plan
which was suggested several months ago, is
again being considered by the local messen
ger companies. Chicago at present is in the
throes OF genuine messenger-boy famine,
and the telegraph and telephone companies
are considering the advisability of hiring girls
to run errands The boys seem to have
caught the spring fever - :
The American District Telegraph company
is ready to hire twenty-five boys who are
bright and know something OF the city, but
for the past two weeks they have been un-
able to get them. The Postal Telegraph COM
pany last week advertised for twenty-five
boys for several days, and the largest num-
Der that came in answer to the advertise
ments on any day was two.
SIT is hard to get good, bright boys" said
Philip Straus. who has charge of the "A. d. T.
office at 125 LaSalle street Few Of the boys
who apply for positions know the city, and,
of course, we cannot use them. We must
have neat boys and boys who are trustworthy
Often we have applications from business
houses who want bright boys, and when a
boy has shown himself to be bright and hon
est We recommend him. There are MANY
boys who do not want to work at this time
Of the year. We don't want that kind
The A. D. T. company pays SIS a month";.
The Postal company, two weeks ago, inau.
gurated a new system of paying their messen-
gers. 1t is known the piece system" and
the boys get IL cents for every message, let
ter or call they attend to.
Boys have been scarce for some time, ..
said B. j. Sullivan, chief of the delivery Of
the Postal company. Until we inaugurated
our piece system we had some trouble in
getting enough boys. Our boys make on an
average from S1.20 to SLAP a day, and as soon
as it became known that they were making
these wages we had no trouble finding mes
sengers. > rt.s
