Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 92, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 6 August 1909 — Makes Secret Drawers and Panels. [ARTICLE]

Makes Secret Drawers and Panels.

“I do many a queer job,” said the handy man. “I made a secret panel for a manufacturer’s office last month. Unbeknownst, from his inner office this manufacturer can now see everything that is done and hear everything that is said by his twenty clerks. Poor fellows,’ they had better be careful. Two of them were fired last week. “A man with a shaved head got me to make a telescope ladder. He was a convict. When they arrested him he had the ladder in a dress suit case. “Rich people like secret drawers in desks apd tables end secret compartmepts in their bedroom floors to hide things in. I have a big run on that kind of work.”—St. Louis Globe-Demo-crat.
