ORDER PULMOTOR FOR
USE in EMERGENCIES
Win Seek to Protect Member, Of
League and Public from Acci-
dent Hold Regular Meet
ing to Discuss Methods

Following up a movement that is
nation wide, the organization Of
safety league has been effected among
the employees Of the chickasha Gas
and Electric company, to be known
as the Local Safety Organization Of
the Employees Of the chickasha Gas
and Electric company.
The purposes Of the organization
are to acquaint the men with the dan
gers Of their work, to educate them
In first aid" work and to safeguard
the public from possible accidents
that might arise, but that by concen-
trated effort might be avoided. The
organization has some 25 members
and will be operated by the men alone,
from which number the officers OF the
league will be elected. The first or
ficers elected wele G. NJ. Pollock.
president; J. +. Allison. secretary. and
Il, Livingston. vice president.
The organization Of the league was
under the direction Of s. II. Reid. rep
resentatiye OF the bureau of safety OF
the public service company Of Chicago.
Mr. Reid deYotes bis entire time 2o
work OF this nature and Is thoroughly
versed on the subject.
One Of the principal subjects dis
cussed at tho organization was the
safety OF the man who trims. the
arc lights OF the city. Instances were
shown where here in chickasha. acci.
dents had been narrowly averted by
people in autos or buggies driving UNI
der the swinging wires when the lights
we're let down to be trimmed. 1t was
agreed that in the future when the
lights are being trimmed at night. a
red lantern will be set on the ground
directly under the wires, and that in
the day time. the lantern will be re-
placed by red flag, thus warning the
teamsters, pedestrians and auto driy-
ers of the danger.
The company has ordered pulmo-
tor and also a Draeger oxygen appar'
atus. The former viii be used to re-
store life to possible victims Of live
electric wires and the latter is used
for men going into a room or tank
where gas fumes would ordinarily
prove fatal.
Meetings will be helr by the newly
organized league every first and third
Mondays in each month. at which les
sons in first aid to the injured" will
be given.

Apparently, active and continued
drilling on the oil wells in the Chick

one and the same time, but indications
are that progress will again be under
way in few days.

through an uncommonly bad streak of
luck, will be ready to proceed tonight.

days ago, the bit became hung in the

tools also became hung. Eventually
the trouble was removed and for the

cleaning the well Information came
from the location last night that drill
ing would be ready to commence to-
night.
Drilling at the Cement well has been
intermittent and withal. very little
progress has been made. The chief
trouble seems to be the shortage Of
casing Another consignment was re.

stockholders Went to the we'll today.
