BEING A NEWSBOY
OR BOOTBLACK IS
NOT so TERRIBLE
Street UrchinS to Hare Merry
Christmas With More
Fortunate Folk.

The person who feels sorry for the
newsboy, bootblack or messenger boy, is
not very discerning party at any time,
but he's particularly opaque in vision
at Christmas time All the little fell
lows who are not engaged in street trades
will wish like everything" they were
when they reflect what's in store for
brothers Of the highways this week.
First, there's the annual Christmas
party at the Y. NJ C. A, at o'clock,
Thursday evening Tremendous supplies
Of food constitute the unapproachable
feature in the eyes Of the boys. John s.
Appel will be the host This is the ninth
time the "" aided by prominent bust
ness man, has entertained the youngsters
engaged in the street trades.
The newsboys will just be recovering
from this party when along comes the
annual Christmas party of Mayor Charles
w. Jewett. As he has done in the past
three years the mayor, great lover Of
boys, will thro official cares to the four
winds and help the kids tear the dignity
Of the city hall into a thousand merry
shreds. The party will be held in the
city hall rotunda around the biggest tres
that workmen of the city park depart
ment can Jam through the front doors.
If the mayor had his way, according to
r. Walter Jarvis, director Of recreation,
the tree would be so big it would be nee
essary to tear out the whole front en-
trance to get 1t into the rotunda.
A Christmas pageant, "The Heart of a
Christmas Tree" presented by children
from community centers and girls from
the recreation school at Lauter Memorial
will be one of the features of the pro-
gram. There viii be gifts and personal
letter from the mayor for each newsboy
present

WEDNESDAY.


Henry had started up to th~ city right
after breakfast determined to make
every effort to get job. If he could get
something to do before the two weeks
were I'D for which he had been paid by
his firm, no real harm would have been
done barring the anxiety tsat he ana
Mrs Hooper were suffering because OF
the failure of his firm and the I'M
certainty as to their future if he was to
be forced into idleness for q long time
Mrs. Hooper had gone about her home
work very sOberly all day, still rather
stunned by the blow tsat had fallen on
them and from the realization that in
spite of all her careful management ana
planning their situation was rather des-
perate if Henry couldn't get job. Her
income had been so regular and steady
for so many years that she had never
given thought as to how she would
manage If Ise $50 a week upon when
she had always depended should sud
denly stop. She realized now that she
had been occupied solely in plans for
managing the income and that the only
provision she had made for the future
involved the possibility of Henry's death.
If tseir income derived from Henry
salary had been suddenly cut off because
Of his diving a 5000 life insurance would
stand between her and the children ana
want for a long time and even II he
had fallen i'll the sick benefit included In
the life insurance opllcy would have
protected them for time, but TO be
suddenly cut off in this way dazed her.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
: By David Cory

Tom Thumb was very pleased when
Miss Mousey said that he might bring
Puss In Boots Junior, to her house. In
few minutes Puss was bowling beneath
her window. Froggy looked very happy,
for, Of course, he considered Tom Thumb
and Puss Junior, his best friends, and
they were very nice looking friends, you
may be sure. Puss Junior, with the
long feather in his cap and the bright
sword at his side, looked as grand as
any knight. And Tom Thumb, with his
court costume and tiny sword, presented
a splendid appearance
you must come to our wedding" said
Froggy. And then he helped Miss Mousey
out Of the window.
mo more was said, but arm in arm
To church they hoped away.
Got married, and prepared feast
To grace their wedding day.
And to that wedding feast there cams
Some frogs Of high degree,
And mice of birth iIlustrious
And first-class pedigree"
Tom Thumb and Puss Junior stood up
merry time. And when Puss stood up
and said:
Ladies and Gentlemen-Here's to the
beautiful Mrs. Froggy!" everybody
cheered and clapped hands. "And here's
to my friend, the handsome Mr.. Froggy."
And then the cheering and clapping of
hands started all over again. OF course,
every one thought Puss Junior very
grand and splendid. Which was very
natural. since he had lived for long
time Mt the castle Of My Lord of Carabas,
and had met knights and kings in his
travels. And then Tom Thumb climbed
up on the table and made a speech, and
after that they all commenced to eat the
good things that were heaped upon the
table
But what it was they feasted on
We will not here record,
But he assured they had the best
The season could afford.
The feast concluded, toasts went round
In water from the rills.
And then eight merry frogs and mice
Got up to dance quadrilles."
And in the next story you shall hear
what happened after that.-Copyright

showing for the end Of the year under
ordinary circumstances now appalled,
her, the balance was SO meager to meet
the demands that might be made upon 1t
if Henry failed to get another job quick
~.
While she had planned very modest
Christmas it really seemed now in the
light Of the calamity as If she could not
spare a cent toward making the 25th Of
December different from any other day
Of the week. But their relatives had been
invited to dinner and she had also asked
the Bride and her husband to join them

Me-" opening at the Murat Thursday
TINNEY CARES NOT
TO BE LADY GRAND.
Frank Tinney-Femsle Impersonator-
\ more incompatible relation to
''Blackface comedian" Is difficult to i'm
agine, In Tinney's case a. least, yet this
tickler-in-chief of Tickle Me" makes
what he terms sleeper jump" from
burnt cork character TO that OF female i'm
personation- Outside Of the inconven-
fences Of tight lacing and subducd
methods, the comedian finds himself stiu
intact, but feels, however, that b els
''au wrong as q LADY. So comes a story.
Comedians are supposed TO do anything
for q laugh, but Tinney has declared that
If he cannot omit the new character,
which he says was wished on him. he
win do something desperate This In
PRESERVATION was originally the result OF
a dare soma time ago at the Eriars' Club,
New York, where some one, IN a spirit
Of fun, chalIen ged Tinney to initiate the
dainty Eraces OF a woman Tinney, being
natural sportsman, accepted the dare
and astonished the Friars at an enter
t2inment by giving an impersonation that
was smooth and convincing, yet tinged
with Tinney humor-
He dismissed the episode as thing
Of the past, but when Tickle Me-
opened he found that Arthur Hammer
stein had listed him for female i'm
personato'. Tinney consented to do 1t,
but with the distinct understanding that
he omit II at the first opportunity, IS be

Of course, the opportunity never came,
and so he finally rebelled.

in return for what they were doing for
the children In having a Christmas tree
for them. She felt as If she must go on
With the diner in spite of the problem
that was facing her, but she knew she
could not bring herself to spend a cent
of money for the little Christmas gifts
she had intended to buy for Helen and
Roger and Betty, as well as a few mex
pensive remembrances for Henry and the
other members of the family Ordinarily
che Christmas shopping was done in a
leisurely fashion during November or
even earlier, but this year Betty's long
illness had thrown her routine all out
of focus and her shopping planned at all
times to take advantage of bargains and
sales had suffered most. Fortunately all
the Christmas spirit would not be taken
out of the day for the children because
of the tree that the Bride and her hus-
band were merrily planning, but Helen
was sure to be desperately disappointed
If there was no Christmas present from
her father and mother as there always
had been. Roger would sense something
wrong, but the omission of his usual gift
wouldn't bother him as much as 1t would
Helen.
Mrs. Hooper sat beside the fire, finish
ing Betty's hat that she had made from
n piece of heavy corded silk that the
Bride had bought at a real bargain, be-
cause It was remnant of white that had
become soiled on the shelf. She had
carefully dyed it the exact shade of the
rose-colored coat she had finished last
week II. seemed so strange to her that
the way the children would feel over the
loss of their Christmas was the thing
that seemed to be troubling her now even
more than her own problem of how to
get along if Henry failed to get job.
Helen was just bringing in the tea
when Henry returned from the city. One
glance at his face answered the ques-
ton which she had not the courage to
ask The first days search had ended
and there was no job.

Thursday is:
