Our cars run better because something new and scientific is being added to the gasoline. We have more confidence in toothpaste because of a new ingredient that is almost unpronounceable.

Fi W l | ifffi EMPLOYEES OF CLINTON^ A ** Z.O - JOLT O tor in safety is not a scientific certainty, it is non the less an absolute essential in on-thejob safety. Full advantage of modern science is being used to isolate and emphasize the "U" Factor, for without the "U" Factor there can be no positive safety. Like most scientific innovations, the "U" Factor is hard to measure. It's what keeps us from driving our cars over broken bottles, even though there is no law against it. It's what makes us duck under a low beam, even when no sign says "Duck!" In industry the "U" Factor insures that youngsters will grow up with things they need, such as fathers, or the working mothers. The "U" racior makes it possible to keep earning money rather than suffer the losses which are always involved in an injury; not to mention the pain, disfigurement or dismemberments that accompany accidents. Experience proves that the "U" Factor can make every person an expert on his own safety. It is the individual thought and care for safety, called "know-how." It is the intelligent safety insurance that includes knowledge of the rules, and knowledge of the hazards, with constant obsorvanop and rp??r?or?t and in addition, a sharp eye and a keen ear for threats to personal safetv that can't be covered by rules. The main thing about this "U" Factor is that it cannot be supplied bv the Company or added to your job by anyone but you?which explains how it got its name? The "Y-O-U" FACTOR. Teaching Kit 01 A new educational kit. Cotton From Field to Fibre, was presented to District 55 schools this m o n t h by President Vance.
