paperboys
Morning delivery kids
A paperboy is a young person, traditionally a boy, who delivers newspapers to homes along a route, usually in the early morning before school.
The job was once a rite of passage for American youth, teaching responsibility and earning pocket money.
He got up at 5 a.m. every day for his paperboy route.
The term persists even as the role has largely disappeared with declining print newspaper subscriptions.
