aim to bring the health OF employees
up to 100 per cent, and employees
should understand that medical
service is not merely a hurdle"
they would take to get job. not
merely an examination for employ
ment.
The speaker told the methods en-
ployed by the Curtis Company's
health service department TO create
confidence in employees. and that the
service Of the company physician
and hospital men were OF mutual
ploye.
The medical service department.
he said, first acquaints the employe
with the service performed by the
medical department. the reasons for
such service. and then by judicious
questioning determines whether or
not the employe is physically fit for
the work for which he is applying
Then employees are encouraged 10

and accidents even OF the most
minor nature. thus eliminating the
danger OF more serious results.
Employees are informed that tn,
medical service does not take tn,
place Of the family doctor. he said
but they are led TO feel as free ir

adopted the medical service idea
but the system depends largel,
upon the nature Of the work per

aged to report accidents OF the mos
trivial nature, with a view to correct

The speaker. said that the Curti
Company maintains a country ciu
for its employees. which is self
sustaining. with dues at only
cents each week. This. he said con
tributes much to the health an
pleasure Of the companys employees
The company also maintains, un
