phone message saying one of our
men is calling!
“The only man to whom you
should hand the machine is the man
who calls regularly to collect the

above notice he was quite cynically
inclined towards all strangers, but
no doubt this action on his part was
effective in stopping thieving of his
machines.

turned in by a little girl who mis­
took the alarm box for a chewing
