KIDDIES' KLIPPER TREATS YOUNGSTERS TO MOVIES 

Joe Ziegler, Barber, Entertains 1200 of His Child Patrons

 He's bobbed some of their locks, some of their little heads he's shaved and some of the others he's fixed up with nice little wet curls. The only ticket of admission required was the statement that Joe Ziegler had played with his shears around their ears. Joe Ziegler is a barber at 1837 Cayuga street. All the children that came in his shop this year to have just a little "taken off the back of the neck and out of the eyes" were invited to come to his Christmas party today at the Wayne Palace, Wayne avenue and Locust (typo = Dounton) street. More than 1200 children trooped in this afternoon. First they howled with, delight at the movies shown. Then they listened with awe to Mrs. Frederick Hartung (his daughter's mother in law), who sang some Christmas songs, and to her husband, who played his violin for them. Ziegler. who is known all through Germantown as the "Kiddies' Klipper" gives the children a similar party every Christmas.
