 WAGE CAMPAIGN
Against Accident and Death
 Through Carelessness

By direction of A. F. Duffy. man aser or the Safety Section Division of Operation, United States Railroad Administration, large posters an nouncing the nation wide accident prevention drive on steam railroads from October IS to 31 which will be carried on in New Haven territory under the direction and supervision of Fred w. Mitchell, supervisor of safety on the New Haven, have beon placed on all employees bulletin boards Tn Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and in that part of New York where the New Haven runs
 This marks the beginning of the intensive, practical work of the drive by which Director General Hines has planned to bring to the attention of all railroad employees, as we'll as the public at large, the possibilities of avoiding suffering and the loss of life through accidents when due thought and care are exercised.
 During the first eight months Of this year, reports show that on the
 
 and the Central New England there was decrease of 31 in the mum ber of persons killed and a decrease of 1.294 in the number of persons in jured, as compared with the similar period of 1918.
 The accident prevention drive has been designed as an object lesson to all concerned. It is hoped by this means to show just what can be ac- 'complished by concerted effort on the part of officers and employees in pre- venting personal injury from con- trollable causes,
 Churches, schools. Y. M. c. As and civic and community clubs have been asked to lend their assistance. Safety rallies, on-day meetings, daily di- visional staff meetings will be con- ducted at which the sole subject un- der consideration will be that of "safety."
 Each railroad in the Eastern Re- zion has established a general safety committee. These committees have mapped out a program of activity to be used as a foun dation for divisional committee work. No restrictions however, will be placed on any com- mittee as to how best to secure a perfect record for the period of the drive"

TO WARD OFF WINTER
COMPLEXION ILLS

To keep the face smooth, white and
beautiful all winter, there's nothing
quite so good as ordinary mercolized
wax. Rough, chapped or discolored
skin, inevitable in this weather. IS
gently absorbed by the wax and re-
placed by the newer, fresher skin be-
meath. The face exhibits no trace OF
the wax, the latter being applied at
bedtime and washed off mornings.
Creams, powders and rouges, on the
other hand, are apt to appear con-
spicuous at this season, because OF al
expansion and contraction
of the skin, due to changing tempera-
lures. You are advised to try this
simple treatment. Get an ounce or
wax at any drug store and
use like cold cream. This will help any
at once, and in week or
SO the skin will look remarkably
youthful and healthy.

WHEN the wheels of industry are
blocked with superabundance of their
own products for which there appears
to be no immediate market, and the
borrowing power of the factory owner
drained dry, it will be amazingly cheer
ing to the laborer to know that snugly
tucked away among the leaves of the
statute Is maximum and minimum
wage law, and that out upon the street
corner, standing upon drygoods box
proclaiming the benefits of such law in
stentorian tones, is its author who is
frantically tanning the atmosphere
with both hands and demanding in roar
ing, Humorous tones that any one,
claiming to have done more for labor
than he, step forth and compare works
to the end that his championship of
labor be never again challenged. For
conclusive proof of his undertaking de-
votion to the toiler he will point to the
maximum and minimum wage law, not
to the silent factory wheels and smoke
less chimneys rendered impotent by it.
When the imagined scene becomes a
reality, as it is almost certain to be-
come if nagging of the employer is
continued, labor will have golden OPP
portunity to compare the relative mer-
its of the minimum wage law maker
with the wage payer, and to draw
therefrOm the proper inference as to
which serves labor best. Labor must
be rewarded; it's employer must make
some money; both must work hand and
glove together, for their interests are
identical. -Madisonian.
