HOW TO TREAT

I Roller Skates Keep Wheels f Telegraph

Industry Moving Along : at Rapid Pace Here

OLLER SKATING for a living and “figure-eighting” to keep their skulls intact is all in a night's work for the dozen lads who are instrumental in keeping the local Western Union traffic department moving at its high rate of speed. Their “rink” is the 80-by-50-foot ninth floor of the Guaranty Building, 20 North Meridian-st, where all Western Union telegraph messages are routed. Their task is to speed messages from the route-center on .one side of the room to the operators of the various perforating machines located in different parts of the office.

The boys are good—they have to be. Whizzing down an eight-fdot aisle, weaving in and out of stationary equipment and dodging one another as well as their numerous wheel-less co-workers requires foot~ work worthy of a ballet artist.

own locker where he keeps his skates and no one else is allowed to touch them when he is off duty. Do they have any accidents? H.-L. Horner, night traffic: manager, can recall only one mishap since the night check-boys were put on skates back in 1923. That one, ironically enough, occurred after one of the boys had spent an especially strenuous few minutes and was standing still resting. His feet slid out from: under him and he was slightly injured as he fell against a table corner. ‘When two of these high-speed messengers meet at the same place at the same time, one would imagine something would happen: But it 4s all very simple. They just grasp one another by the arms, whirl clockwise for one complete revolution and then resume their respective journeys ‘in, their original directions. : i 2 5 ” » UT the man behind. the scenes is Ivan L.

Foley keeps on hand enough skate parts to assemble at a moment’s notice six complete pairs of skates. “No, it’s not hard to get competent skaters to be check-boys,” Horner said. “The trouble is keeping them—-they want to take a whack at vaudeville after they're here a while.”
