Notes and attribution research

This poem is included in The Brown Owl section of Atalanta with this note: Would any readers of ATALANTA like to exercise their ingenuity in discovering the answer to the following charade? The editor L. T. Mead, writing in The Brown Owl section of the July issue, gives the answer (locksmith) in the July issue, with the comment that Turquoise has sent a spirited reply in rhyme, which I am sorry I have not space to print (p. 606).
