LOCKS ON DOORS A PUZZLE
Architects Wonder Why People Insist
on Having Locks Through
out the House.

1t has long been a question will
architects why people should have
doors throughout the house so com
pletely equipped with locks. Why
Cor example, should all the closet and
bedroom doors have locks? Did you
ever lock your bedroom door? Prob
ably not. 1t may be desirable to put
locks on closet doors. Do not put a
lock on door just because it Is a
door. Perhaps, after all, you will
never lock 1t. At any event bolt
or a thumb turn will serve all the
purposes of lock and you will not
have a key to look after.
However, 1t should be said that a
nortised latch will usually cost more
than a bit key lock. OF course If you
have a small boy In the house you
Will want lock on the pantry door.
Some people have thought 1t desirable
10 have one closet in the house
equipped with good cylinder lock.
Such a closet may come In very handy
at certain times, perhaps II for moth
ing else than as space In which to
store the family skeleton.

ODD SENTENCE FOR THIEF
Given Ninety Days In JAN for Stealing
Ninety Ladies' Night Gowns
From ClothesIlnes.

Police Of Detroit station are kept
busy explaining to persons who wan
der into the back room there and find
1t looking like Monday morning In
the back yard of a young woman's
seminary. Draped from chairs, tables,
doorknobs and ropes are sixty dainty,
filmy silk nighties of all husS and sizs4
and conditions of servitude.
They are, so the explanation goes,
the results Of the labors of Joseph
Labedz, who is a fancier of these gar
ments. Labedz has been In Detroit
four months, having come from Chi
cago. In that time he has collected
ninety silk nightles from various back
yards In the north end, he admits.
He was arrested when Mrs. Sydney
o. Mills missed three of the dainty
garments from her washline. Police
were notified. They arrested Labed33
He was wearing all three of the
nighties as underwear.
Labedz pleaded guilty before Judge
Charles L. Bartlett in Recorders
court. He was sentenced to ninety
lays in the house of correction, one
Tor each nightie.
