EXAMINATION IN FIRST AID
INSTRUCTION TO BE HELD
Employees of West Penn Co. have
Just Completed Course

Ten Oakland, Tunnelton, Kingwood
and TOWNSVILLE employees of the Nor
gantown division of the Monongahela
West Penn Public Service Company
will take examinations for the COM
pany's first aid certificates on Janu-
airy 20, according to A. T. Shaw, dis
trict superintendent. These employees
recently completed a course in first
aid instruction given by Walter A.
Wolfe, known as key man, whose
instruction work was supervised by
Paul Thorn, safety director. Mr..
Wolfe Possesses United States Blu
reau of Mines first aid certificates,
given at the completion of an inten-
sive first aid course by Bureau of
Mines representatives in March, 1929.
Intensive safety and first aid in
struction in these towns was started
last spring. Following instruction of
the key-man by the Bureau of Mines
experts the employees were organized
into various groups of classes to be
taught by the key-man, under the su-
pervision of Mr.. Thorn, whose head
quarters are in Fairmont. Eventu-
ally it is planned to have every en-
ploye of the company in Oakland and
nearby towns instructed in first aid.
This instruction is only part of the
safety and accident prevention work
of the company through which acct
dents in this district have been re-
duced to a low figure. -,
The first aid course embraces all
forms of emergency relief in case OF
accident, beginning with the control
of arterial and veinous bleeding, and
progressing through the use of the
Schaefer prone pressure method of ar
tificial respiration and treatment of
shock; treatment of wounds and of
burns; bandaging and care of frac-
lures and other first aid work. The
certificate which nearly every one in
the class is expected to receive, indi-
Gates proficiency in the application of
first aid work.
Through application of first aid in
structions several employees OF the
company have been able to give ma
terial assistance in times of emer-
gency. Recently the employees of the
company rendered emergency relief
to Hugh Echard thus saving his life.
These men are ready at all times to
assist not only fellow employees, but
all others in case of emergencies.

HOW TO GAIN WEIGHT

Zone hundred and fifty-five
pounds" exclaimed Dan Thayer
in great surprise, as he stood on
the scales at Sturgiss' Pharmacy
Tuesday morning. "I must be
gaining something terrible" and
adjusting his eye glasses he gave
another close inspection to the
point indicated by the hand on
the scales.
On his way toward the entrance
of the store, a witness to the
weighing mentioned that the peck
of potatoes he had in his arms
might have had something to do
with the increased weight.
And no doubt it had-about fif-
teen pounds. - 80.

 The odors from the Mattabesett river, particularly at night have be- come so bad that many residents are beginning to feel the effect Of this condition as shown by many cases of malaria and distemper, mostly among children. The condi- | tions this year are worse than last as only a few times last summer was the smell of sewage noticeable about town. Almost every night and many mornings during this summer the smell of sewage has been so offensive as to be sickening. East Berlin is the only community on stream between the sewer beds and Middletown as the river passes through country territory most Of it's length.
