Thla 1 the true tor) 0 111 rruwn odweiWure unlocking unlet around 140 art)k and umtor th sea, , CHAPTKR VII T WAS out of a jnb. 1 A few month) after th Arml itlce the dry dock were as dead (raveynrd. This teemed tho time to go Into my own bualneas, but the money had been spent on my family that now included daughter and a baby ton. So I Mood in the hiring lino again, but there win no work in New York, Every week our bank balance dwindled. Finally we had to make a decision: should I tako what wm loft and hunt In aome other city, or ahnuld I rlak everything and open my own hop on tho chance that I could make living at the work that I had alwayi Intended to do? My wife voted for taking the ehnnce. In that flrat shop I learned the builneaa and 1 learned poople, Lockamltha fit Into the acheme of modern life aomewher between confidential lawyer), detective, firemen, and police. We are called on missions to open eafe or doora that more often than not are in volved In dramutlo conflict In people' aecret llvoa, Joba In which much depend on our truslworlhl neaa and discretion. We mutt be ready to anawer emergency call with the peed of the police, be came we can never be aura whether they are real emergencies people (ulTocatlng In atorage vault or only inconveniences a key locked inaide when aome woman ho taken the dog to walk. Both are llkoly to have the same urgency over the telephone. e OMETIMtS I panted from one emergency to another. A ruah call came from a drugstore three block away: a man'a agitated voice begged me to come quickly and save hi children. While I wm collecting my toola, the tele phone rang again; a woman wa locked out of her homo and mini iget in immediately. They were iboth In the fame direction so I went to the drugatore Arat. On Ithe corner a policeman wa keep 'Ing the people moving. There wore no algn of an accident, but man atood at the back of a dosed odan picking hysterically at th trunk with hi finger. Doe (omebody want a lock smith?" I aaked th offlcer. He grabbed my arm and pushed me to the car. "Here, open the back compart' ment." The man gripped hi hand and pushed so close that I could .hardly use my elbow. "What' in here?" I asked. "What'e the special rush?" "My babies are In there," he groaned. "They're dying and I've lost the key." I attacked the lock with all the peed that I could muster, hold ing my breath, listening for any sound. "Keep cool," I kept telling my mU. "Keep cool and you'll work faster." Every once in a while I would have to push back the father, who edged to close that I could feel hi breathing on my neck. In a few minute tho lock gave. I threw up the top and then lay two bebiee, a boy and a girl, with their arm around each other, fast asleep. Almost at limp at the father. I picked up my tool and went on to the econd call, which waa only a few block away. At the corner a fire engine (hot by. fol lowed by the hook and ladder and all the outfit. By the time I had reached the middle of the block ' and begun to look for the number, the itreet wa black with people and th pollcfe were clearing them, away. The firemen were Jumping down at my number. Pushing through the lines, I told a police man that I had been called "ruth" and he waved me alone:, to I ran up the step behind the firemen who had already burtt the door. A determined-looking woman led ua through the hall toward the) kitchen. Sho ran to the oven, opened it, and pulled out a roast ing pan in which lay a goote done to a golden brown, 'Thank heaven," ahe gasped. "I ws afraid it would burn. Th Are department 1 so nice. I knew1 you would help me, and I couldnt wait for a locksmith. I thought he would never come." , ClNCE time wa my chief capital, I had to rely on my ingenuity, to And short cuts. One of thenv FUNNY ' :"Tfe new gunner says he's used to neaved-off shotgun! waa a way of making keys for th most complicated locks wlflwut faking mem apart. It could oe done by looking Into the keyway and gauging the tumulors with my eye. This was more difficult than memorizing a key at a glance and copying It without examina tion, a trick with which 1 often mystify my friends. Client occasionally brought me problems that could not be solved by locka and keys. My most in genious device waa contrived for the use of one lone cuatomer, but my friends tell me that it has limitless possibilities. This man slept so well that a thief could take the very pillow under hi noafl. o he waa at a decided dla- advantage when hi wife rifled hi pocket. He had exhauetod hi own Ingenuity; not even a white mouse in hi pocket frightened her. I put clasps aomething like tipper in the pocket of three pair of trouaer and connected them with a amall atorage battery wired to a boll. When th clasp wa opened, the bell rang, th man waa awakened and could take what action he thought bust. After eern 1 month hi wife found way to disconnect the bell. Next, I tried n Invlalble rubber band that, when It wa stretched? pulled a wire. Thl muat have been uc ceaoful, for my client never re turned.
