NO GRAB BOXES
Among those who do business in this
section but have been called upon by Cap

are those who conduct small stores In the
vicinity OF schools and he was surprised
10 find that nearly all OF them had what
was labeled grab boxes" where the little
ones for "A penny would make a purchase.

deemed II wise 20 order the grab boxes
"cut out" for in his opinion the influence
on the little customers was none too ele-
waiting.
