When
elevators first started to be used in buildings, they were not the automated
ones we see today. It took some skill to operate the elevators and
men were hired as elevator operators. Young Nathan lives in an apartment
building and loves seeing the elevator man every day. Sometimes he is even
allowed to use the controls. But when the apartment gets a shiny
new automated elevator, Nathan's friend is out of a job. Or is he? |
