NOVEL MEANS ADOPTED TO
RAISE FUNDS FOR STAMPS
EL PASO, Texas, May 3.—Highland
Park schoolboys have many ways of
making money with which to buy war
stamps and “help to whip the kaiser,’’
as their badges read. One boy washes
dishes for his stamp money. Another
picks up tin cans on the vacant lots
of this suburb and sells them to the
junk, dealer, who recovers the solder
from them. Another enterprising boy
greased and polished neighbors’ auto
mobiles. Another real boy got his
first stamp money for taking a dose
of castor oil. Other boys carried
newspaper routes, polished sister's
shoes, pressed big brother's clothes
and yet another walked three miles
to school each day, saving his car
fare for war stamps.
BIG MOVEMENT OF TROOPS
