Winning Safety Slogans

Winning Safety Slogans.

An interesting safety slogan contest was held recently at the east car shops of the Pennsylvania Railway at Fort Wayne, Ind. A committee of twelve shopmen acted as judges in the contest in which more than 500 slogans were submitted by the employees. The winning slogan was sent in by a car inspector and is as follows:

The work is dangerous, the hospital worse,
Let's get together and boost safety first.

Other slogans securing places in the contest, and submitted by a machine operator, and by two car repair helpers respectively, were:—

One way, the right way, the safety way.
A safe day's work means a full day's pay,
And a chance to prepare for a rainy day.

Safety to-day for service to-morrow.

The winning slogans will be suitably framed and hung on the walls of each shop to serve as constant safety reminders to the employees. Such contests serve a very useful purpose in the development of the safety conscience.
