Trade-Mark PROGRESS Believing that the advance of business is a of vital interest and importance, The Outlock present under the above heading frequen cussions of subjects of industrial and co interest. The department will include par of timely interest and articles of educational dealing with the industrial upbuilding of the Na Comment and suggestions are invited SAFETY FIRST AND THE WAR BY LEWIS EDWIN THEISS Iron-workers have never been accused being either mollycoddles or goody-goo Consequently when nineteen of them a ployed in one of the rolling mills of al Cambria Steel Company, at Johnster: Pennsylvania, recently marched to the d and complained that the twentieth man their gang was drunk, and demanded removal before they would go to work a matter occasioned no little comment. the entire history of steel-making pr bly nothing like that had ever happ before. But this request for the removal d unfortunate fellow-workman was not ma merely because that man had done s thing morally objectionable. It was na because these workers were imbued the new spirit of "safety first." They garded an intoxicated worker just as the would a cracked derrick or a broken h in a chain. He was something that mig at any moment cause an accident might tie up the mill and kill or inj some of its workers. And they were dete mined to play safe. It is interesting to inquire, then, how the attitude of mind-the attitude employer have in vain attempted for years to in cate in their men-came into being at t Cambria Steel Works. When the French would unravel a me tery, they say, "Cherchez la femme" ( the woman). In this case we shall have a hunt for a man. But he is easily foun He is safety engineer J. S. Herbert. The Cambria Steel Company was orga ized perhaps sixty-five years ago by Phi delphians of that religious sect known Friends. As friends they have alway treated their employees-an original for of two hundred to three hundred men, grown to nineteen thousand men. The built for their workmen the first industri hospital in the world. They put in charg of it the best surgeon they could see As far back as forty years ago they or ized a benefit association to care for t families of men who were in the hospital But while these efforts alleviated suffer ing, they did not decrease accidents. Ye after year the hospital records showe about so many injured men per hundre employees, and it was accepted as a fact the about that proportion of men must nece sarily be injured in operating a steel mill In 1913 Mr. Edwin E. Slick, the bi hearted general manager of the company created a safety department, installed M Herbert as engineer in charge of it, an backed up his work morally and financially Mr. Herbert began to chart all accidents, together with pertinent facts as to the me injured. Among the interesting things his charts showed were these: A man who has been in the steel works less than thirty Safety First and the War (Continued) s is six times as likely to be hurt as the who has been there more than thirty Is; and the man who has been at work than six months is four times as likely be injured as the man who has worked e than six months. This hazard of the man is due mainly to his ignorance of operations with which he is connected, no safeguard can be put on a man. is with every new hand employed liaty to accident increases in industry. he obvious safeguard for all these cases ducation. It is easy to teach a man how >lay safe on ten different occasions. So, ugh mechanical safeguards were everyere installed, the dominant note in the ety work at Cambria Steel Works bene education. It was rather difficult work. In the first r the men looked at Mr. Herbert suspiusly, wondering what new kind of a skin me he was playing. But when he showed amount of wages they lost each month ough being laid off by injuries, and led attention to the number of shoes and s of flour that might have been bought h this lost money, the men became openaded. Strained backs were a frequent rce of loss. One of Mr. Herbert's assistEs went into a shipping house, after the fidence of the men had been gained, and ent half a day teaching the workers how lift kegs of nails so that they would not rt their backs or be dead tired at the end the day. Finally the men themselves enlisted in the ety campaign. In each of the nineteen isions of the works a safety committee three men was appointed, who serve for period of two months. Then they are ceeded by other men. Thus nearly ee hundred and fifty different men ve on safety committees each year, and › leaven of safety first has spread rapidly oughout the entire force. Accident records are kept for each divis1. If accidents in any division are fewer in they were for the preceding twelve onths, each committeeman in that division ceives a ten-dollar bonus. And the comitteemen of the division that makes the eatest reduction for the two months' period e paid an additional $10 each. Usually elve to eighteen committees are on the nning side, which means that in at least o-thirds of the divisions there is a conint reduction of accidents. Despite the et that since 1913, when the safety dertment was organized, thousands of new nds have been added to the force, the cidents for 1917 were fifty-five per cent wer than for 1913. The casualties on the firing line of Amerin industry are as impressive and terrie as the casualties in the trenches. In ennsylvania alone 255,616 men were lled and injured in industry during the ar 1916. It behooves manufacturers who are patriically endeavoring to speed up their ants also to cut down their accidents. It n be done. In a former article The utlook pointed out the cost of hiring d firing. Mr. Herbert, by demonstrating e menace of the new hand, has shown the ingers of hiring and firing. Patriotic nployers have two tasks before them: hey must produce the needed manuictures, and while doing so they must cut own accidents. Just treatment will build up a permaent body of workmen, and proper educaon will make safety workers of every one f those employees.

POWDER IN SHOES AS WELL AS GUNS Foot-Ease to be Added to Equipment of Hospital Corps at Fort Wayne. Under the above heading the Detroit Free Press, among other things says: "The theory is that soldiers whose feet are in good condition can walk further and faster than soldiers who have corns and bunions incased in rawhide." The Plattsburg Camp Manual advises men in training to shake Foot-Ease in their shoes each morning. One war relief committee reports, of all the things sent out in their Comfort Bags or "Kits," Allen's Foot-Ease received the most praise from the soldiers and men of the navy. It is used by American, French and British troops, because it takes the Friction from the Shoe and freshens the feet. There is no foot comforter equal to Allen's Foot-Ease, the antiseptic, healing powder to be shaken into the shoes and sprinkled in the foot-bath, the standard remedy for over 25 years for hot, tired, aching, perspiring, smarting, swollen, tender feet, corns, bunions, blisters or callouses. Why not order a dozen or more 25c. boxes to-day from your Druggist or Dep't store to mail to your friends in training camps and in the army and navy. BY THE WAY In a list of men who do not smoke, "Good Health" mentions, in an issue largely devoted to an anti-tobacco crusade, President Wilson, ex-President Roosevelt, ex-President Taft, and Charles E. Hughes, former candidate for President. On the other hand, it may be remembered that President Grant was almost never seen without a cigar in his mouth. This suggests the interesting question, which doubtless some close reader of history can answer, Did Napoleon and Wellington fight out their differences with or without the assistance of My Lady Nicotine? 66 Writers of advertisements for department stores, who are fond of endless detail in spreading their store news before the public, might gather a lesson from the Baltimore American's" recent reprint of its first issue, dated August 20, 1773. This contains an advertisement of a Baltimore jeweler. After enumerating part of his stock, he concludes: "Silver & steel top'd thimbles, pincushion hoops and chains, with sundry other articles, too tedious to mention" (italics ours). Another advertisement in the pre-Revolutionary paper above quoted runs as follows: Baltimore, August 18, 1773. Many people in this Town and Fell's Point having hitherto neglected to pay their public Dues this year, my deputy has my orders to execute every person that has not paid, without distinction, as I am to leave the office in November, and all accounts muft be settled with J. R. HOLLIDAY, Sheriff of Baltimore County. No doubt the exasperated sheriff here uses the word "execute "in the legal sense of enforcing a judgment or writ of execution to sell the offender's property, and does not mean to threaten him with sudden death if he fails to pay! 66 All good neighbors, a contributor to the American "Agriculturist" says, like to borrow occasionally from each other, but what can one do with the neighbor who makes a practice of getting her supplies from you and never makes any return? "I once laughingly told my neighbor," she says, "who wanted to wear my new hat to town before I had worn it myself, that I would lend her anything but my clothes." This borrower took her good-natured victim at her word, and among the list of things she soon borrowed were coffee, meal, flour, oil, vinegar, soap, and pencils-which last were regarded as too small ever to bother about bringing back, while most of the other things were "forgotten." Actors, says the "Dramatic Mirror," are nervous about the new "loafer law" in New York. Technically, it seems, actors who are idle during the three dull months of summer will be liable to arrest under the law. A kind-hearted official, however, states that actors will come under the same category in this matter as school-teachers and college professors, and that the spirit of the law will be observed rather than its technicalities. Illustrating the idea that dietary changes on a vast scale may take place as a result of the war, David Fairchild, of the Department of Agriculture, says in the "National Geographic Magazine:" "When King John of France was being taken to England after the battle of Poitiers and one of the principal items of his expenditure was for sugar (one of the kingly luxuries of his day), could he possibly have imagined that the time would come when a descendant of a West African slave, in a continent yet undiscovered, would remark in the language of his captors, "It just seems like somebody was dead in the house to have no sugar!' These are consequences of food habits." Among "Selling Tips" in a trade circular is this suggestion: "Going around a territory for a number of years, the average salesman gets into a beaten track that often bears a close resemblance to a rut. He calls in the same towns, sleeps in the same hotels, and sees the same concerns on each trip. I was a victim of this habit for many years until one day I was forced to break my schedule to oblige a good customer. I lost train connections to my regular stop and I had perforce to work several near-by 'tank' towns, where I did a fair business and nearly all new trade at that. Since then I've made it a regular practice to set aside three hours of each working day to this pioneer' work." The trade circular quoted above offers these "Rules of Salesmanship:" "1. Know your business. 2. Be clean. 3. Be cheerful. 4. Be a good loser. 5. Be courteous. 6. Be on good terms with the inside men. 7. Be a good listener. 8. Respect a man's time. 9. Work. 10. Think." In order that these rules may "get across" to the salesman, an eleventh rule might be added: "Read." 66 "Does your son who is abroad with the troops understand French ?" asks the caller, as reported in a daily paper. Oh, yes; but he says the people he meets there don't seem to." The late Lester F. Ward, who has been called "America's most distinguished sociologist," showed the candor of a large mind in admitting his own mistakes. In a note in his "Glimpses of the Cosmos" he says: "In reading it [a book review he had written for the "American Anthropologist "] I detected an error in line 3 on page 669, where inorganic' was printed for 'organic.' I was curious to know how I had written it in the final draft, it being correct in my rough pencil draft. Mr. Hodge returned my manuscript, and it proved to be my own mistake in rewriting it. A still worse error was made in the last paragraph, where I inadvertently wrote Verneuil for Chevreul. It was a pure aberration of mind." The endeavors of the older folks to get the boys to avoid common errors of speech are sarcastically hit off in the following skit from a daily paper's funny column: "Mother-Johnny, do you know Willie Jones?' Johnny-I soaked that boneheaded shrimp on the beezer the last time I seen him.' Mother- What awful English! You should say, I soaked that shrimp on the beezer the last time I saw him.'" A minister who read The Outlook's recent comment about the Piggery Plan was moved by it to give his young people a sermonette on Patriotic Thrift. He closed his talk, he writes, with the following bit of doggerel. Though not intended for publication, it is so amusing and withal conveys such a helpful lesson that we print it here for wider circulation: Piggery, piggery plan, The way of the garbage man,— To feed Uncle Sam; |
