BUSIEST IN VACATION TIME.
Many Clerks Go Away Forgetting to
Leave Behind Keys Most Needed.

Vacation time is harvest time for the
skyscRaper section of locksmiths of New
York. Every summer thousands of key
holders 90 away without stopping to
leave the keys, and thus bring an appre-
ciable increase in the demand for lock-
smiths
Every morning now an inside door or
a desk is locked and office work stops
until the key man arrives. An emer-
gency satehel stocked with keys and
tools IS kept ready when one of these
hurry calls comes in.
Sometimes part of the office supplies
are locked up and the fact is not dis
covered till someone sends out requisi-
ton. y call may come for special en-
grayed stationery to be delivered to
secretary in a hurry. Then may come
the discovery that the paper Is nowhere
to be found. but that one section of the
supply closet is locked, that nobody has
the key and nobody seems to know any
thing about Il duplicate.
With the buzzer from an inside office
performing at intervals like au angry
bee it is a shorter process to send a boy
pelimell out the back door in haste for
the locksmith than to continue the more
or less embarrassing inquiries on the
KEY question any further.
People habitually seem to forget about
the keys TO the stamp box. Surpris-
ingiy often the trouble is with the cash
bOA. anu CpIlSiutTdblt SuilS OF petty CUSH
are left locked up with one key on va
cation and the others in unknown or I'M
available places.
y locksmith who has for 50 years
been furnishing new keys to Wall street
shook his head:
People are just the same. There is
more business now because there are
more locks. With the smaller locks used
! now people are more apt to twist or to
| break off the keys. This makes consid-
cradle work for me.
! Every once in a while fit key and
mend ii lock that has been in use for
more than 100 years-great big hand
| forged locks on old houses and storageS,
They are good. strong locks, with big
keys of brass eight or nine inches long.
y good many very large keys are still in
use.
The biggest excitement that / ever
| have in tie shop is when somebody has
gone on vacation and has left the pay
| roll locked up and nobody knows about
! it until it is time to go to the bank sOr
| the cash. But / don't mind. That kind
of thing is what keeps job like lock
| smiths from getting too monotonous.

Those Chicago PIasterers.

Chicago plasterers are now getting
500 a day. According to one contractor
he pays his plasterers 81 an hour and
SO a day bonus for working on his jobs.
That would make S26 day for union
plasterers hired by that particular con-
tractor. Saturday afternoons he pays
81 an hour or SIC for four hours work.
The same double scale prevails for Sun
day work. This contractor states that
the employers and the union have signed
three-year contract. The contractors
are said to control 100 per cent of the

u. S. TENNIS TO
STEER CLEAR OF
ALL ALLIANCES
BY HENY L.. FARRELL.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent. J
New York, Jan. 17.-Entents and
national alliances may be the vogue
of the day but American sport is
showing a tendency to steer clear
of any international combination.
Especially is this true in the case
Of tennis, the only universal, inter.
national sport.
For years England has been bring.
ing pressure on the United States
Lawn Tennis association to affiliate
with the international Federation,
but the governing body of the game
in this country declined and it is
unlikely that the policy will BE-
changed this year.
America had nothing particular to
lose by association with the fedora
ton and likewise she had nothing
particularly to gain.
The one obstacle, however, was
the demand of England that Amer
lea subscribe to the plan of CIV
ing the international championships
to Wimbledon in perpetuity. The
United States officials maintained
that the only fair way would be
to alternate the championships
among the countries affiliated with
the federation.
Obviously it is true that the Am
erican game could not do Justice
10 ITSELF under any arrangements
whereby the American players would
have 10 make the trip every year
o England. Not only would the
expenses CT transportation keep the
American entries at a minimum, but
he change of climate and condi-
ions would be a great handicap.
American opposition to this plan
vas voiced again at the recent meet
