Almost every large railroad, industrial and manufec- taring corporation in the country has taken up the “safety firet” idea. ‘Bmaller organizations are adopting it at the rate of 100 per month. The above figures and the fact that “safety first” is now a watch- word in many large corporations that employ thousands of workere is the best testimony to the success of a movement thet has in a few years become national. “Safoty first” is the most humane and civ- ~flived ideal that has ever imposed itself upon industry in the interest eonecious. <-> It ie estimated that 750,000 employees ere still compelled to work {without the safeguards and protection urged by the Council. “Safety another year it should rule the land. \ —_-4+-—____. +s Late news from the war ie to the effect that every German Soldier has two sete of suspender buttons on his trousers.

Why is it that when a man talks to a woman he always fancies she prefers highly colored works of the imagination to plain historical facts? The man who makes love to two women at the ‘same time may be an optimist, a fatalist or varietist; but the man who confines bis lovemane to just one girl at a time is an artist, a scientist or a strategist.
