INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENTS
SHOW GREAT INCREASE

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-(By The
Associated Press) THE industrial
accident problem in America, which
is now causing approximately 10000
deaths and 500. 900 injuries annually
will never be fully controlled until
the public accident problem is con-
trolled," C. w. Price. vice-president
of the Elliott Service Company, New
York City, told the members of the
American Society of Safety Engi-
neers here tonight at a special meet
ing of that organization called to
consider the relation of public safety
to industrial safety.
Some of the biggest industrial con-
Germs in the country, including the
United States Steel Corporation, Mr..
Price said, already have come to
this conclusion and are now giving
the workmen in their plans instruc-
ton in the prevention of accidents
on the street, in the home, and in
other public places. Industrial exc
cutives, the speaker said, are begin
ming to realize that it is easier to
get workmen seriously Interested
in accident prevention at home and
on the streets than in the plant, be-
cause in the former case the lives
of their wives and children are con-
cerned, and the average workman,
even of the lowest type, is usually
more interested in the safety of his
than in his own life.
in the city of st. Louis, for ex-
ample" Mr.. Price declared, "110 in
dustrial workmen were killed by
accidents during 1917 and only Is
industrial fatalities occurred there
in 1922. How is this remarkablesl
record to be accounted for? In part
to the intensive safety educational
work done in t.. individual plants,
but in much larger part it was the
direct result of the COMMUNICATIVE
safety campaign which has
been conducted in that city.
1T is only a matter of time, and
a very short time, before industrial
executives generally recognize what
few of the foremost industrial men
now realize; that when workmen are
reached outside of the plant with the
idea, they come back to the
plant not only more deeply inter-
ested in the prevention of accidents
employees. but convinced as faith
ers and citizens of the value of safe
ty to them and their families.
at is now possible for any city
to secure the plans of the campaign
which have been conducted in 9TH
er cities and the actual material
with which to conduct a permanent
safety campaign. The uniform sue
cess of these campaigns is an almost
certain guarantee that a similar
campaign will bring about an appre-
cable reduction in accidents in any
American city"

If your spring hat is a poke bonnet,
good. If it isn't, buy veil---the hat
doesn't matter.
To be sure, the poke bonnets are
many and various. They range from
tight little shapes with round brims
cut off in back to flafing scuttles that
extend IL inches or more beyond ones
bangs.
They are made of all manner of
straws and fabrics, no one of them
more fashionable than another. What
of the days when straw was the only
thing one wore in summer and velvet
the only winter wear? For the spring
season of 1923 there are straws, taft
fetas, fets and printed fabrics-and
every single one of them is right.
Flat applique flowers are used for
Misunderstanding bows, trailing rib
bons, small flowers and fruit. The
brims OF the poke bonnets are often
lined with color to contrast with
that of the hat.
Green Is Popular
Green is the favorite shade with
red coming second-then sand color
and gray.
What If you can't wear poke bon
net? What If you're just letting your
bobbed hair grow and it shows In

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
By MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN
SOMETHING FOR NOTHING
ooooooooooooooo ooooooot
10, 1922, Harland H. Allen

It Is Just as hard as 1t ever was 10
get something for nothing. And the
woman who hopes to buy 39-cent goods
for "all-wool" is getting more cotton
than wool. and storing up trouble for
herself, for after q few weeks the
bargain OF which she was so proud
Is sure to be hopelessly shabby. and
she finds herself with literally nothing
for her pains.
1t Is false Idea Of economy that
makes a shopper buy cheap Atwood
serges and flannels 30 thin and sleazy
that they pull apart with the sewing.
1t Is much better to get part-wool dress

SILK at the price Of cotton Is q pit

only ten dollars last summer scarcely
lasted the summer through. One such
experience teaches us that 1t Is better
to buy a good quality Of an unpreten-

expensive one. For instance. mercer
lied foulards and m llls are much bet

things that cause them to wear out

them anyway. And after the third or
