LOS ANGELES-One of the saddest,
woe-begone youngsters in the city of Los
Angeles was a Western Union boy sitting
on the bench at Jean Minthorne's on No-
vember 5th.
Why? It all started back a long, long
time ago when Minthorne was born on No-
vember 5th. Since then Western Union has
been doing a lot of things besides transmit-
ting messages to keep the wolf away from
the door and one of the ideas they con-
cocted was to chirp "Happy Birthday" songs
to those having birthdays provided someone
would pay the modest rates they had estab-
lished.
The gang at Minthorne's chipped in and
decided to greet the boss with a singing
greeting when he arrived on the 5th. The
Western Union boy arrived .to deliver the
musical message at 11 :30 a.m. and took a
seat when he found Minthorne hadn't ar-
rived at the office. At 3 :30 THE REVIEW re-
porter browsed into the place and spied the
WU boy, still waiting for Minthorne and
silently cussing the brilliant ideas the big
moguls at the head office concoted for little
boys to carry out.
When the message was finally delivered
was still a mystery as this issue went to
press.

Permo Spurns
Free Ad Offer
CHICAGO - The Industry needs more
loyal supporters such as the Permo Pro-
ducts Corporation. Recently the firm was
approached and asked to assist in supply-
ing cuts for ads to be run without cost to
them in a publication which for the past
two years has advocated location ownership
and advertised phonographs for sale to lo-
cation owners.
"We refused tile offer of such advertising,
even though it was to be run without cost
to us," stated E. C. Steffens, Permo Vice-
President. "Permo has never been guilty
of supporting a movement that is unques-
tionably detrimental to the phonograph op-
erators."
