SAFETY FIRST" OF "J" Safety First" has long been the slo gan of the United States Steel corpora-dJ-jtlon and of ,ts severa' subsidiary com panies, each of which has had its own individual . method of attacking the accident prevention problem. The records of the Elgin. Joliet & Eastern Railway company as to accidents show that of all the subsidiary companies of the United States Steel corporation it has been one of the most persistent and progressive in its safetywork. It has not been content with this. Tho study of the accident prevention problem made by it, convinced Its officers that the most effective practical work can only be done through definite and organized effort, Involving a definite plan and a comprehensive organization to formulate and carry out such a plan. Like Illinois Steel Plan. One of the other subsidiary enmnanies of Fhe United States Steel corporation, the Illinois Steel company, has for several years had in effect its so-called safety committee plan, which has resulted very satisfactorily." At first It was thought that such a plan would not be feasible in ralieoad practice and operation, but early In 1910 air experi ment was Inaugurated upon the Gary division of the Elgin, Joliet and Eastern Railway upon which several work men's safety committees were organized, which reported to and worked under the division superintendent and safetyi Inspector of the division, the latter being an orficer in general charge of safety matters on that'divlsion. The work of these committees being very satisfactory proved that the previous apprehension was unwarrant ed and the Elgin, Joliet Ac Eastern Railway Company thus was one of the first railroad companies In the United States to adopt the safety committee idea. Broaden Out Scheme. The success of this experiment was such that In June, 1911. the companydecided to put the plan In effect upon Us entire system and at that, time i arrangement for carrying out. its safe" ty campaign was perfected A central committer of safety h&s general jurisdiction over all safety matters. It ! Is composed of the vicepresident of the railroad, as chairman: I superintendent Gary division, superintendent Joliet division, superintendent of motive power, chief engineer, genI eraj attorney, safety Inspector Gary di vision and safety inspector mill yard. Joliet division. Subordinate to the central commit tee of safety are two division commit tees, constituted as follows: Gary Division. Assistant superintendent of termlrials, chairman; master mechanic, master car builder, assistant superintend ent of bridges and buildings, traveling engineer, traveling car inspector, roadmaster.

If these bits of trimming hare been eared one may design many novel and handsome Christmas gifts with them. By means of a little planning a sofa cushion similar to the one illustrated here may be designed. Four triangular pieces of heavy lace are cut out to fit each side of the small square of handkerchief linen in the center. This lace is applied so that a larger square will be the result. A strip of the linen is run along each side of, the lace framed square, and a small block of lace is fitted into each corner to complete the third square effect. Around this la run a wide insertion of heavy lace, the cushion being finished with, a narrow lace frill. BETTER THAU SPAIIKIilS. Spanking does not cure children e bed' wetting.
