To the hardware man it assumes a

For each of these four classifica-
tions. it. takes on a new head in
hardware.
Modern hardware biings mam
improvements oter that of a gen-
eration ago.1“crhaps the most
notable step has been in the master-
keying systems in lock manufacture.
A truly up-tmdnte mun would.not
consider anything but a master-key
’ewstem for his home.
“I should advise a man to takr
his hardware needs to a har'duaro

store," said. Albert Morgan, hard-
ware morchant of Washington
Street. “Here we czzn relieve his
mind of all details

“I would advise: the master-Roy
system. whereby all locks of tho:
[house can be opened by
.key. As to design. it saw-ms today
that all designs are in demand. The
general run is simplicity of design,
but people all want something difl'rr—
out. “We can zin him hurdwzlrc of

For instance, a.
the master- 3
'lt-ries.
should buy a. standard make of in-
terior trim. We carry the Lock-
course. we believe in it. However.
it is a question of the maker‘ 3 name
in many cases. but there is little to
choose "
’ The masterkey system. is one that
admits or every lock in the house
having its“ individual key. and yet
everyone can be opened by a. mas-
ter key. This system is applicable
to any type of lock, and can he had
in the pin-tumbler type. The sys-
tem of master-keying is a. simple
one, in which certain pin tumblers
have double functions. and while an
explanation would be lengthy. it
nevertheless does not impair the ef-
ficiency of the lock iteelt.
The hardware trim comes in many
varieties of design and finish. Need-
less to say. the home builder_ him-
self must determine just which
shall be used. He should keep in.
mind the general design of his home.
and not buy trim that will be out or
keeping. The Old English style of
architecture can well be suited by a
simple design with some finish of
the; Bower—ISaT-i'f type-I Nothing can
better suit the white woodwork of a
Colonial home as well as the many
Colonial designs of hardware. finish-
ed in a high brass polish .
In building the home, it is well,
to remember too. that. modern hard- 3'

sometimes do. These are of various

Then last. there is that question

There are also spring hinges which r

Most ctriainly it. can! Any lock‘
