 |S HE B|G IDEA
Keep an Eye on the Rules of Others and Avail yourself of What They Offer = What Happens If Not


 Edward l.. Tinker. safety supeyie or with the Fl Paso & Southwestern, Is issuing occasional bulletins in con. nection with his department that are Of much interest not only to railroad men, but as we'll to the general rub. lie, and particularly to every man em- ployed at manual labor of whatever sort or in mechanical lines.
 The lesson Mir. Tinker sets about teaching in a very convincing and in. teresting manner is that danger turks everywhere and that the only nroteo ton the individual has as he zoe, through life is 10 keep his eyes open, follow rules laid down for his protec. ton explicitly. acquiring this as a fixed habit. and availing himself of all protection offered by his employ, CTS and those serving the public There is nothing dry about the bulletins Of Mir Tinker, of which the following in. tereSting publication is the latest: Preventable Accidents-Do you have to learn by being injured yourself. or will you learn from the experience ot others what to avoid in order to save vour own life or limbs and suffering to yourself and your family?
 Fatal One of our employees was sitting on the back of hand-car. an other hand-car was following and came so close that he drew his legs up to avoid having them broken. The pump handlebar came down and struck him on the head. breaking his neck. and he died in few hours.
 It is against the rules to run hand cars closer together than two tele- graph poles.
 It is against the rules to sit down On a hand-car.
 This poor boy was tired after a long days work. but that one little act cost his his life and untold suf- fering to his mother and bis family.
 Remember, the rules are made for your protection.
 Are You going 10 be the next one?
 2.-Fatal. At Douglas trespasser on our tracks did not take time to walk around 8 train or wait until 1t passed. He crawled underneath box car. the engineer did not know he was there and started the train. The trespasser was decapitated.
 Isn't 1t a good investment to spend few minutes in keeping your head on your shoulders where it belongs2
 3.-FataI On the Western Division an engineer was killed in April by getting of his engine while same was running 10 or 12 miles per hour. step ping into a cattle guard as he got off. He had told his fireman he was going back to the water car. He left a wife and two little children.
 Ladders are provided over tanks of engines and there was no neces- sity for his getting of the engine. Water cars should be cut in when they are picked up and connected with the engine at that time.
 4. Just lately, tools were piled in a careless way on the front Of a hand car. A crcwbar fell of. derailed tho car and two men were quite severely injured.
 Why not load hand-cars in tho Safety-First way and then your pay check will not be interfered with and the coroner will not have a chance to sit OF your remains?
 2. A brakeman on the Dawson lost his right arm in April by going be- tween cars to adjust the knuckle with out having first told the other brake. man where he was going to be, and he (the other brakeman) not knowing signalled the engineer 10 back up, which resulted in the accident as above.
 Never go between cars to adjust knuckles or for any other purpose, unless all of the train crew know where you are.
 $. Recently. at Fl Paso shops a foreman noticed a man chipping with out glasses. Being a Safety-Flrst booster he went to the man and tolc him that glasses were provided by
