SAFETY FIRST
 H0W SECURED

Strict observance of all rules must be insisted upon. To secure this. some form of discipline will be necessary. Just how this matter will be handled should be left to the workmens safety committees. With our organization, a man who breaks safety rule is repri- manded for the first offense; given a 'layoff of from 1 to 15 days for the second, and discharged for the third.
 Printed Rules Best
 Both men and bosses must have a thorough knowledge of all rules. This is often difficult thing to obtain, for with large employing company per sonal examination cannot be made of each individual. One way in which the rules can be given wide publicity is to have all the rules covering a certain class of work printed on a card and to have this card placed at or nearby where this operation is being carried out. Rules for carmen and loaders should be tackled up at chutes for mo- tormen and swampers, at oil houses, sidings, skip pockets, and where these men stop for lunch. Miners on stope work should find the card nailed on timbers. Rules covering machine work, the handling of explosives, in fact all important rules, may be placed at points where the men congregate for lunch This will be found to be a bet ter plan than to depend entirely upon rule books. The books, however, should always be issued and the em- ploye's receipt taken.
 A classified accident records of all injuries, even the slightest, must be kept. This should be so arranged as to cover all operations in every depart ment. This will have greater value if the report sheet used by the bosses is so arranged as to call for full details as to the occurrence of an accident. Information regarding slight, minor and no-loSs- time accidents rarely reaches the inspector, except from the boss's reports. Injuries causing no loss of time should always be reported. These constitute about 40 per cent of all injuries, and are the ones most like ly to become infected, the men believ- ing that they are not of sufficient inn portance for medical attention. With

 INCH TO ENLIST.

The passing of physical examinations sometimes is a mattel of psychology and determination, as is evident from the experience of Carl R. Wheeler. for merly a private in the Third Regiment. For several months he had been em- ployed in boosting sacks of cement. When he reported to Capt. w. A. Smith, F Company, yesterday. Wheeler was exactly feet 3 inches tall, one inch under the requirement.
 "Straighten up said Captain Smith, as physician looked over the appli- cant.
 Wheeler's shoulders came up and his ! head rose three quarters of an inch It was decided that somewhere be- tween Wheeler's feet and his had there was quarter of an inch of slack that should be taken out. A half dozen men volunteered to remedy the circumstance and disappeared with the applicant.
 After an hours massaging and pulling, 1 Wheeler again stood before the physi- elan. There wasn't any slack this time l The applicant met requirements.

our company, all hurts. no matter how slight, must be reported. Failure to report will cause the employe to be discharged
 Accident Reports Impartial
 All reports of accidents should be absolutely impartial This is very nec- essary if an inspection and report is made by the inspector or safety com mitteemen. Particular pains must be taken to fix the responsibility and the blame placed where it belongs.
 When it is possible to do, all in- struction should be given to the men when they are at work. They do not like having their leisure time taken for this purpose and will resent it if this is done frequently. If it is necessary 10 instruct them when they are off duty it can best be done by giving them some form of entertainment, to which they can bring their families, and us ing a small portion of the time for an illustrated talk on accident prevention. A conducted bulletin board with safety notices, rules, etc, posted near the working places, Will do effective work in training the men to watch for unsafe conditions and in protecting themselves.
 One thing that should he given more attention than it ordinarily receives, is that of selecting men for a particular ! kind of work; in other words, fitting the job to the man, not the man to the job. It is the common practice to put a man on q job; if he doesn't make | good, discharge him. Yet this same man, if given chance at something else, perhaps tried at several different kinds of work will more than likely make good. If a man can be placed at work that he likes, he will be a more efficient, safer and better workman.
 Not Without Cause ! In this connection I would call at tention to the indiscriminate discharge of workmen by foremen and bosses. I do not believe that any man in direct charge of workmen should have the

 Among the ores mined in Pima, are gold, silver, copper, lead, gins tungsten and galena. Also there are large de- posits of white and black marble, tufa, gypsum and limestone.
 The shipments of cattle from TuscOn are valued at more than Sl,000000 a year Much beef is also raised and fattened for the local market.
 Agriculture is rapidly spreading out in Pima. It has been only within the past few years that it was considered cf much importance Large tracts have been placed under the ditch and there is much good land that can yet be talk en up under the government acts for settlers.
 The railroads are an important factor in the up-buildinS of Pima. Through | them Tucson has become a great dis tributing and jobbing center. This city | is on the main line of the Espee | terminus of more than 1000 miles of ' Espee in Mexico, and through the Fl i PasO Southwestern the western ter

right to discharge them. and l say this after many years spent in handling men. The practice is a relic of the dark ages and should be abolished. The trouble with the present system is that the workman holds his place subject to the whims and fancies of his boss and if discharged, has no recourse. These days the education, training and shap- ing of the untrained man into an eff
 cient, safe and reliable workman is done at a considerable cost, and the employer should not have this invest ment jeopardized by the sole judg- ment of any one man. The man in

made by correspondents to run this rumor down.
 How? By what process? By what strategy? Ask these questions in Ger many and you will ask in vain. The whole business already belongs to fla ble. Everybody has a different ex- planation, different theory The thing was so swift and so colossal that no one seems to have kept any CO., herent record of it. I searched in vain in Berlin for clear account; I got very little more light from officers who were present. Four months after the battle James O'Donnell Bennett, the very ablo correspondent of the Chicago Tribune, went to East Prus- sia to go over the field and unearth the facts. He told me later that he had to give up the enterprise as i'm possible.
 "The staff officers of Hindenburg actually differed as to the days on which the action had been fought, More, 1 find an error of the same sort in the official biography of Luden- dorff, read and approved by him. The author, Dr. Otto Krack says that the victory was reported on August 2S. But a copy of the Berlner Tageblatt that lies before me shows that it was really reported on the following day.
 Much mystery, indeed. But is it not possible that the news gatherers went to the wrong place? Should they not rather have gone to Petrograd, to the heads of the revolutionary committee, who discovered that German bribes and German corruption induced gen. erals in the Russian army, tainted like the cZar and all his entourage with German sympathies, to betray lni- I..f, l .. and wholesale slaughter? The defeat of Tannenburg, upon which the Ger mans are erecting idols, was one of the reasons why the Russians pulled down the cZar and the grand dukes

charge should have the right to lay off a man, at the same time filing q com plaint against him, but his final dis charge should only take place after the workman's side of the matter has been heard. The discharge of a workman should be handled through the employ ment office, and after the case has been passed upon by a committee.
 The large corporations, realizing the value of the trained worker. are taking steps to provide a better system of disciplining the men, also to see that the men get a hearing before being discharged.
