Deliverers of news were typically 14 or 15 and could earn £10 a week for 20-25 minutes work per day. But no more
Suprised at the low rates quoted in that article.

My son does a delivery, 1 day a week, of the local free paper , what he gets depend on the number of advertising inserts (which he has to insert) and of course number of houses.

His round of about 80 houses IIRC, earns him about £12-14 for one evening a week
