alarmed to find that the
lock OF the entrance to the storage
room had. been broken. However.
as far as they could ascertain NO
cars we're missing or other prop

equipped with a new lock the day
before by Mr.. Cameron.
But the party responsible for the
scare was soon rounded up and en-
tered a plea OF guilty. A certain
well known restaurant man Of the
city had been out driving Friday
night. Being q customer Of the
Cameron storage room, he carries
a key. Driving to the garage, he
essayed to open the door but the
lock refused to respond. Not car
ing to leave his new Studebaker
out at the mercy Of the wintry
breezes, he exerted a little extra
strength and the door opened with
disastrous results to the lock.
