KNOWING FIRST AID
SAVES LIFE OF MAN

First aid knowledge OF telephone
employees has been the means of saw
ing the lives of many people not con-
nected with the Company. Recently
George w. Benzie and T. w. Erickson,
cablemen, were working in manhoe
at Norfolk, Virginia, when their atten-
ton was called to a man standing
nearby holding his bleeding arm and
calling for help. The two telephone
men hurried to his assistance, Erick-
son grasped the injured arm located
the artery and stopped the flow Of
blood, while Benzie quickly procured
his First Aid kit and applied tourni-
quet at the proper place above the
wound. Bandaging the ugly cash and
preparing a sling for the injured arm,
they turned the patient over to a po-
liceman who took him to a hospital
where he was given medical attention.
1t developed that the injured man,
H. B. Dunn, of water company, had
severed an artery in his arm while
washing a glass bottle. In letter to
W. L. Wagner, Plant Superintendent
of the Chesapeake and Potomac Tele.
phone Company, Mr. Dunn expressed
his appreciation Of the efforts OF
Benzie and Erickson for their know!-
edge and application of first aid which
very probably saved his life.

CuttS.
Increases in telephone operating eff
ficiency increase out-of-town calls.
This has made it necessary to in
crease the number of direct lines be
tween communities having common
business and social interests. In
speeding up calls between out-of town
communities far and near, telephone
officials have provided direct circuits
which not only give faster service, but
also improve transmission.
Among the latest direct circuits to
be connected by the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Company are
those serving Washington, D. c., and
Albany, N. Y; Lynchburg, Va, and
Bristol, Tenn; Onancock, Va, and
New York City; Baltimore and Tren
ton; Wheeling, W. Va, and Youngs
