 On Sidewalk, Drags Her to Death

A roller door holder is another new Stanley Works product. This is said to be an improvement over the old fashioned door clamp in that it requires no change of adjustment. A spring inserted within a metal hold CT forces rubber tired wheel against the floor with pressure enough to hold door in any po- sition. This is said to be especially desirable in sick rooms.
 A complete line of more than dozen new types of butts and hinges, in modernistic design, striped and ornamented for higher grade homes, and in some cases colored, is closer to the usual Stanley Works line.
 New Aircraft Hardware
 Recognizing that there is q field for business in the aviation line, the Stanley Works has gone into the making of airplane equipment on more general scale than ever before. A complete line of airproof door fasteners for hangar doors now is in use on one or more hangars on Brainard field and is said to greatly facilitate the warming up of plane motors in cold weather.
 A complete new catalogue of Stan ley aircraft hardware is in the hands of the printers and will be on the market in a short time. Leo Doml- ian, licensed aviator and a member of the 43d aviation squadron, is in charge of sales in a newly created aircraft division.
 Duralim and aluminium alloys comprise the aircraft line. The fix lures are built on the general theory that every pound of equipment sav- ed means a pound of paying weight added.
 Wrought aluminium alloys hinges for use on cabin, open COCK pit doors, compartments and coWl- ings are made of high strength metal are so light that hinges meas uring one inch square and opening to an inch and a half with .055 gauge metal weighs only e-slXth of an ounce.
 A new cabin door latch is built as an improvement of the automobile door latch so that there shall be no wind resistance.
 A cylinder cabin door lock for mail or baggage compartments Is made of aluminium with steel bolt and high grade brass cylinder and weighs but 1-4 ounces.
 An article of which Stanley Works officials are inclined to brag some- what is an entirely new type coWl fastener. simple in design when eX- plained but an ingenious contrlvancc. It consists of projecting lip in angular shape, held in place by a spring and attached on the inner side of the cowl. An ordinary screw driver, operating the projecting lip by means of a set screw causes it to engage in strike plate and draws the coVl together without leaving metal projecting to cause wind resistance. It weighs one ounce.
 Wrought aluminium handles five inches long and l 1-2 lncheS "lue weigh one half ounce.
 Another ingenious article, weigh ing one-tenth of an ounce and so small that several could be carried in an ordinary vest pocket, IS q cabin window stop for use on sild- ing windows. The stop prevents the window from creeping open due to vibration.
 | Where it is necessary for handles, fastenings and other miscellaneous articles to project, the Stanley Works has provided a stream lined cover plate which MT. Domijan says entirely eliminates all wind resls- tance. More than seven and quar- ter inches long, the cover plate weighs one and one-half ounces.
 A sure grip holder, equipped with strong spring and rubber wheel grip for holding maps, charts or hats, is made of wrought cold rolled steel and comes in nickel plated and brown laquer finishes. A clinch-on nut attached to metal and into which wood screws can be truned, completes the aircraft line.
