They Get Lonely and UncOmROrtable, Tired

''The life Of q janitor of ono Of the
big down town Office buildings isn't all
it's cracked up to be-" remarked one Of
them late the other afternoon with an
expression Of WEAKNESS on his face as no
looked down at lower Broadway filled
with men homeward bound. People
think we live high up in pleasant rooms
with a fine view and tho purest Of air,
flower gardens on tho roofs and the
breezes we get up there from the bay on
warm summer nights. 1t all sounds
well, but the job Of janitor isn't q pleas
ant one.
pure air? Well, may DO an excep-
tion, but 1 don't think / am. I don't
get it in my rooms, for the most Of them
open on the ventilGting shaft, and / have
to keep the windows shut the most of
the time. You see, even on the top floor
all the best rooms can be rented easily,
and the janitor has to take the worst Of
the lot. Most of us have too much care
and worry, too, to train up flower gar
dens, for when night comes we drop in
to our beds to be ready the next morning
early.
'But the worst Of it is that wo never
can get rid Of the building. / get to
hate mine. Working i'll it all day, liv-
ing in it at night, get sick CT it-fair-
ly sick. If so off Saturday afternoon
Or Of Sunday, I've always got that
building on my mind and always the
thought that must get back to it that
night.
"We get to envy the mon that have
homes to go to, for by the time 8 O'Clock
comes it gets lonely down here. The
most Of the men who have been work
ing in the building are now amusing
themselves miles away. Sometimes, on
the rare occasions, l. get up town O.
nights feel coming back down to that
gloomy heap that I'll resign tomorrow.
"Ront is free, yes, but you get SO
much less wages, SO there's not even
money in the job. To show you how
some of us feel, there are several jani-
tors who have their homes in other
parts of the city and actually pay rent
when they could get free rooms, merely
to get some relief from the monotony Of
our lonely building. New York Her
