Do you leave a written invitation
for the summer burglar when you
go away from home for over Sun
day. or when you shut up the house
and go away, all of you, for a little
vacation?
Chances are about even that you
do. though you think you have Sc
curely fastened every last door and
window. bolted the blinds and
locked the woOdshed.
That bid for Mr.. Burglar is writ
ten plainly in his own personal
sign language on screened cellar
air hole, or an unfastened back
door or an open window in fathers
bedroom. Often it is the very pre-
caution taken to protect your home
that gives the housebreaker his
chance.
So The Press has secured from
w. E. Stauffer, superintendent of
the Spokane Merchants Police, a
few thappy thoughts on how NOT
to invite the burglar, how to fill his
maraudiDg path with obstacles
and particularly how to take pre-
cautions which will cause him to
pass by. your house at a glance for
an easier proposition at Neighbor
Browns, in the next block.
A glance at them now will make
1t little more certain that you can
find the silverware safe when you
come home from the next outing.
"The first thing the summer
burglar does is to try the front
door," says Stauffer. IF you have
gone away, leaving the front or
back door unlocked, there is no
need for resort to the Jimmy in
prying open a window-unpieasant
and dangerous work, because it
takes a little time In the open,
where the burglars apt to be seen.
You don't go away leaving the
doors unlocked? Funny thing!
Everybody says that. yet it isn't an
uncommon thing at all for the po-
Iiceman on his beat to try the door
Of q house and find 1t opens to his
touch. This often happens on the
downtown beats also. where store
doors are left unlocked, or even
partly open"
This forgetfulness of household
ers out for an outing, according to
the officer, Is due to the hurry and
hustle of getting away, with a hun
dred things to think about, includ-
ing the basket of lunch, the fishing
tackle. Johnny's bathing trunks,
such like small things. Possibly
someone is sent back for some
thing forgotten in the getaway,
and rushes out again to overtake
the family, without thinking to lock
the door again. Absent-minded men
and women will even lock the door
carefully. and calmly leave the key
IN the lock.
Then there's that screened cellar
window. Looking very secure. but
its . bid that Mr.. Burglar accepts
with alacrity. II yields to single
touch OF the Jimmy. If you've nailed
