established safety first" bdr iau,
the first of its kind in Annapolis.
While always operated in man
ner looking to the safe and secure
travel of its patrons, Mr.. II. Scott
Arnold, Geneval Passenger aud
Ere light Agent, after careful and
exhaustive investigation of the sys-
tenn as ado pied, has arranged for
conditions which will amplify and
aid the present existing safety con-
ditions.
With q record of which it is justly
proud as concerns accidents to pa
irons of the line, and which record is
not duplicated by any road in the
entire country, the Short Line has
adopted the new system in order to
embrace the employees in such man
ner that their protection, their edu-
cation and their conditions of work
will not only guard themselves but
will rebound to the protection and
comfort of it's patrons.
Fhe experience of all roads has
been that when the system of safety
before everything else has been prop
erly inculcated in the minds of the
employees that not only is the travel
ing public benefited, but that the
men themselves, other workmen and
the freight and equipment receive
the benefit of such training. Mr.. Ar

standards of life, one for them and
one for other people, that enlightened,
moral, industrious and religious set
of people of one race was the equal
of the enlighted, moral. industrious
and religious people of another race.
All of which was very greatly en-
