"Well, it was Mr. Stockbridge's

in the presence of the desk 'with
Its curious f mechanism, ' Allen

there was any one in the room
save himself, and Lillian swept us
away from him that no word or
movement might disturb him. ,
What Drake Found. , .
He looked at the desk from all
angles. ; Then ' he seated himself
before it, closed hla eyes, and bis
long, slender fingers .began to
play over the polished surface of
the wood as I have seen blind peo
ple "feel things". I think we &U
felt t he dramatic tension in , the
atmosphere, ; and . when ,'ilr.
Drake's fingers stopped at one
point on the aide t the desk, and
we ,beard a ' slight click, I could
not repress a little- exclamation
as the secret drawer shot out t
from fig -biding 'pee.---cs''r'-.
Mr. Drake opened ' "bla., ;eyes. ,
prang up, and with one hand-on
the drawer, bowed with burlesqee
grandiloquence; f : "V . ' '
At yoor service.; ladies," he
said, bat be looked directly at me,
and I fall rather than aaw Dicky's
frown of displeasure.
Lillian caught up from the
drawer ja single aheet of paper,
blotted and scrawled. ' Her eyes
ran over it quickly, then with a
little Indrawn breath of relief she
beckoned the rest xt ns to her.
"Read that!- she said, thrust-

IS BIG IIIISW
Tobl Handles from Oregon
Grub Oak Are Given
Wide Distribution
S. A. Hofer, of the Valley Man
ufacturing company jof Wood-
burn, was a Salem visitor this
week. Mr. Hofer has developed
an industry of a good deal of in
terest the manufacture of tool
handles from ' the Oregon . grub
oak that grows so plentifully in
the Willamette valley. : .. A jbig
exhibit of the Woodburn products
is now being shown at the Salem
Hardware company stare. ,v.
The oak trees are quarter-
sawed, first of all; sometimes six
sawed or even eight. Then., the
white wood is slabbed -xff, and
put away to season for at least
a year sometimes for several
years. The inside or heart wood
is worked up on shorter time. It
goes into telephone brackets and
a few other articles that use
large quantities of ' this portion
of the tree. When-the' white
or sap wood part is properly dried
it is turned into rough shape- on
automatic lathes. After that the
rough handles, whether for axe.
hammer, pick, adze or any other
tool, are smoothed up on sand
lng machines, where the wood is
cut by revolving sand-cloth belts
After being brought down to a
smooth finish they are parafined
on a soft belt carrying parafine.
that grinds the parafine into the
pores of the wood and leaves the
handle smooth as glass and al
most impervious to moisture.
About 25 kinds of oak handles
are made, for all kinds of me
chanics' tools. A few ash handles
are also made for shovels, bay
forks, rakes and hoes. ,
- A similar factory., on a small
scale, Is located at Mt. Angel and
there! Is also one in Silvertoa.

pany of West Salem that has been
