M a i er & BerkeIe Rather frosty work, selling newspa per* nuch days oa these, Isn't It? The little fellows try to keep warm by running and yelling, but the Angers beneath tfce ragged mittens are mighty stiff and blue sometimes. If you have ever been a newsboy yourself—then you know whst It means to run around corners where the wind blows cold, to dodge among street cara and tnotor cars and yell, "Extry! All about the big wreejt," and nil for a penny or two. A. K. Hawkes, the viaduct merchant, has thought of the boys. He used to be a newsboy, away hack when patiers were different from those of today- long before he came to Atlanta to build up a business from capital begun by selling those same papers on the street. He has thought of them In a substan tial way. ''Here are twenty-live brand-new dollar bills, Just from the printers,” said Mr. Hawkes to The Georgian. T want you to give one, with this letter, to each of the twenty-live boys who seem to need It moat." Each note was enclosed In an envel ope, with u little letter of Christmas cheer to the recipient from Mr. Hawkes. Those dollars will mean u whale lot to the'llttle fellows. Many a Christman gjft for mother or sister, many n warm muffler which the boys have watched in thj show windows as something far beyond their reach will have a new owner before the neweboys have gone home for the night. This Is not the first (Christmas that the newsboys have known the gener osity of.Mr. Hawkes. For years he has given them something on Christmas day. SALESMEN-SLEUIHS' WATCH OVER JE WELRY COUNTERS You would be surprised,” remarked a fly cop, V nalenmnn sleuth, in a Whitehall street Jewelry store, “how many ‘histem* f’hrial mat* time brings ring In a trrfy tilled with genuine dla monds. This is a game that is often worked successfully, and ordinary Jew elry clerks will get worked If their forth. And they are people who would f eyes are turned away for an inatant. not be expected to do such things un less you were on the watch for that sort of a game.” w Although it U noP generally known, moat up-to-datb Jewelry stores employ, at this time of the year, expert detec tive*, sent to them by agencies In the North, who are expert Jewelry salesmen well. These agencies can supply detectives who are expert in any kind of work, and besides selling goods, they have* their eyes constantly open for shop-lifters and sneak thieves.' In the language of crooks and detectives or fly cops, as crooks call them, a shop lifter who works Jewelry stores Is a •hlster/ and about this time of the year they work their graft harder than at any other time. The crowds which flit the stores make their work easier. I In a well-known Whitehall street jewelry store there Is an expert sales man. sent then* for the holidays, and to look at him, one would never Imag ine he was a detective. But he Is, and he Is constantly watching bis custom ers. “If precautions were not taken," he continued, “the loss to Jewelry stores at this time or the year would be an Immense one. Only this morhlng I de tected a well-dressed woman palming away a brooch set with diamonds. And when I called. the turn she didn’t scream or faint. Bhe just nervlly re marked that It was her mistake. Hhe was a ‘hlster*, and an expert at that. On Saturday a well-dressed man at- These phoney diamonds look like genuine ones at a glance, and It Is gen erally not till later on that the swindle Is discovered.” And all the time this detective-sales, man was talking his eyes were taking In everything that went on In the store.
