Ohio Fuel Gas Co.
Wins Safety Council
Contest Award

Winning of first place hon
ors in the Natioanl Safety Coun-
cil's Public Utility Industrial
safety contest by The Ohio Fuel
Gas Company for the third con-
secutive year, was announced
here by Alfred Meyers, Chair
man of the Company's safety ac-
tivities in this community. This
award was in competition with
other gas utilities of the same
size throughout the nation.
All competition is based on a
frequency rating of the number
of loss-time accidents per mil
lion hours worked during a pc
riod of one year from July 1,
1889 to June 80, 1910. The Ohio
Fuel Gas Company scored the
lowest frequency rate in it's
classification. This represented
only IL loss-time accidents in
over six million hours worked.
By winning this first place
honor for the third consecutive
year, the. Company established
an enviable safety record which
is outstanding in the public util-
ity industry.
A beautiful bronze trophy
symbolic of the award will be
presented to representatives of
the Company at the Annual Ma
tional Safety Council to be held
in Chicago in October, Mr.. Mey-
ers said.

Among her many other duties
Romayne must cue those stars who
have momentarily forgotten their

terrupt the action by asking for
help, Romayne has had t. acquaint
herself with a set of highly in
