SAFETY FIRST, EFFICIENCY, AND VALUE

 FORCIBLY BROUGHT OUT FOR EVERY MAN

Writing in the Mining and Engn- ecring World, Letson Ballet has the following interesting and valuable ar. tcle on efficiency and safety ir mine operations:
 Many accidents around the mines result from men trying to do work for which they are not fitted. Safety is promoted by specializing dan gerous operations, like starting and stopping machinery and oil. ing. by installing automatic meth thing out of the ordinary occurs No mine superintendent would think of hiring an ordinary laborer as a hoist engineer. The greatest care Is taken In selecting competent experienced hoist runners. men who can read the mine signals and who understand the mechanics of their machine We see signs posted in power houses and around other machine shops which read No one but electricians must handle the switches or wires "Em. ployes must not touch the switches or machinery unless employed for that purpose and such like On the other hand the eager who loads the cars and stops the cage by bell signals. is gem erally a low-priced laborer. In some cases he is unable to read ;he bell signals posted on the stations. ani even though he may have committed the signals to memory. he is unable to read a note that is seni down to him, and has no special qualifications for the work as a eager. except that he is paid on the low-priced scale.
 Men Of nervous temperament should rot be entrus ed with machinery. The general rays!cal and moral conditions of men should be looked into Co ascer. tain the nature of work best suited to each employe
 Around the mine there is an endless struggle 70 have the tools cared for. Many machine driller has Co dig his tools out 'of the muck-ple before he cen 'ser up and begin on the round Thus tho qualifications should require that a man take care of his tools.
