P0PULAB NEWSPAPER SH0WES,
a A popular social affair among the
newspaper boys is a subscription
shower. It is a good deal like the
linen and china showers given in"
ber of subscribers whose subscrip-
(tions
are due get together and indii.-e
I all their neighbors who are not sub
scribers to join them. They go in a
body to the newspaper office, where
each one planks down a dollar and
takes credit for a year's subscription.
If the editor's face is wreathed in
smiles the affair is a success. If he
looks glum and grouchy, jJie affair is.
