ATKINSON _______Editor REPORTERS Weave Room: Ernestine McCall, Preparation Dept.: Jessie Vassey, Julia Cloth Room: Opal W. Smith. Community: Mrs. Raymound Johnson, EDITORIALS Safety Is Important The purpose of an organized accident prevention program is to eliminate accidents that may result in injuries by removing the hazards, by protecting the individual worker, and by promoting safe practices. However, no program yet designed has succeeded in eliminating every injury. Therefore, even those establishments that come nearest the goal of complete injury elimination have found it necessary to provide carefilly for the treatment of those injured. Many of the most serious lost time accidents can be attributed to lack of tirst aid treatment when a minor accident occurred and later infection set in. Everyone should relize the importance of first aid treatment and take advantage of same even though the injury may seems of a very minor nature at the time it happened. A slight first aid treatment at the right time may save many days of lost time as well as eliminating pain and suffering to the individual. The creation and maintenance of interest, as a first principle of accident prevention, applies to everyone in our organization. Every individual must relize their responsibility in helping to promote safety. Naturally, a person who is keenly interested in accident prevention will play a more constructive part in a safety program and be less likely to be injured or to cause injury to others than one who might be indifferent. The interest of every individual is needed in order to get the desired results in our safety program. The spirit of team play will go a long way in building up a good accident record and we urge everyone to exert their best efforts towards establishing a good safety record in our plant. SLATER Things I'd Like To Do: Be able to put silencers on the mouths of all dogs at sunset so our evenings wouldn't be disturbed by the concerted barks and yaps and howls of these household pets... Know how many "collectors" there are round about and what they collect ... I know two ladies who collect pitchers and one who collects novelty shoes, and one other person beside myself who collects stampls ... Be a magician long enough to make words turn into balls of fire every time I hear a grown person tell a child to "shut-up" ... Be able to skate or ride a bicycle with the ease and skill that the kiddies on our streets do ... Cut all of the low hanging branches on the trees of our village before winter's rain and sleet makes them hang too low for comfortable walking ... Be able to capture and preserve some of the joy and happiness and confidence and trust that is evident on the faces of newly married couples and give them back a portion of it years later when the going gets rough ... Break people of that careless habit of clipping their words short when offering a friendly greeting, and make them take time to say "good-morning" instead of a quick and curt "g',mornin'" ... Be twins, so one of me could do the interesting and pleasant things I never find time to do, while the other one did the necessary and humdrum things that have to be done ... Pin a great big banner on every safe driver in our village ... Pride increases as achievement progresses and is often proportionate to the relative quality of the achievement to the individual's personal recognition of the worth of this work, and to the degree to which the work has improved. A person who is capable of well founded pride in his work should also make it apply to accident prevention and be interested in the safety of his fellows as well as the safety record of the plant. Every person who wishes to attain success must be interested in their work and take a pride in doing a good job. Everyone wants a safe place to work, and in order to eliminate accidents we need the help and cooperation of each individual. Good housekeeping should play a big part in accident prevention. The general appearance of the job usually determines the quality of the work being done as well as the results of the accident prevention program. Everyone has a part to play in doing a good housekeeping job, having a place for everything and seeing that everything is in its place. An orderly arrangement is not Cloth Room Chatter Pfc. Carl J.

NATIONAL SAFETY COUNCIL Thirty years ago it was considered "sissy" to disinfect a scratch. Even today arms, legs and lives are lost because some men cling to the false notion that small wounds are not dangerous. If you get a cut or scratch, get first aid immediately. Better than that, avoid cuts and scratches in the first place. That's the best way to protect yourself from infection. The following suggestions from the National Safety Council will help to do this. Don't throw sharp-edged knives loosely into kitchen drawers. Racks for kitchen cutting tools are cheap and safe. Open cans with openers, not butcher knives. Openers with disc cutters, which fold cut edges under are safer than the "pry type," but if you must use the latter keep your hands out of the way, use short lifting strokes, and be wary of jagged edges. Keep ice Razor blades are designed for shaving, not for paring corns or toenails or sharpening pencils. Dispose of used blades promptly and properly. Don't throw them into wastebaskets or leave them on wash basins or on medicine cabinet shelves where hands, little or big, can get cut by them. When using a knife, chisel, ax, hatchet or any other sharp tool, cut away from yourself. Make sure you won't suffer even if the tool unexpectedly slips. | gcls_SN_044bPage Two The Slater News September 26, 1946 The Slater News STAFF ROBERT H.
