Safety "Movies" Reduce Accidents The Ford Motor Company has found motion pictures a valuable aid In reducing the proportion of serious accidents In the big factory. The practical relation Is best shown by the accident record, which shows a gradual reduction In the amount of time lost through Injuries. Through the co-operation of the Ford safety and photographic depart ments a new safety film has Just been completed, In which familiar factory scenes are used to show many of the more common accidents and how they can be avoided. Since a large part of Injuries are the result of personal carelessness, special emphasis Is placed on the need for care on the part of each man, although the val-ie of mechanical safeguards Is also shown. Eacn afternoon several hundred workmen, selected from various de partment, gather In the company's motion picture auditorium to witness the safety pictures. In addition, there Is a reel of general Interest, usually selected from the Ford Edu cation Weekly series, and a short talk on safety principles which apply to the work upon which the men pres ent are engaged. The pictures have aroused consid erable Interest, and men who have not seen them await their turn with eagerness. That the men who have seen the safety film take It seriously Is seen In the constant reduction of accidents in proportion to the num ber of employes. While the pictures are valuable as part of tho educational campaign for safety, a large force of safety inspect ors is constantly at work, watching for conditions which might spell dan ger. The extent to which the Ford Motor Company has gone In safe guarding Its workmen Is shown In the comment of a safety inspector who recently visited the factory and remarked that It "was considered a hundred per cent shop" by his firm, meaning that all normal require ments had been exceeded in the effort to eliminate accidents.

The folders audience fit an envelope and should bo sent out thought he filled It very creditably , with every letter going from Ashland before the speech was over. j In the next few weeks. Most motor carowners consider all-the-year driving as a matter of course, and would as somi think of stopping eating in the winter as putting their cars away on account of cold weather. Spring, however, does have some significance for automo bilists. It means that the days of long rides througn the coun try are almost at hand, and every driver, whether experienced or a novice, wants his car in the best possible shape to take advantage of the good roads. The time to make ready is before the roads are in shape. ' . Even though the car has been giving constant satisfaction aU winter, it is a good idea to go carefully over the tires in search of worn or weak spots. The. Ford Company is advising Ford owners to lake their cars to the nearest Ford agency and service station for a spring overhauling. In every branch city there are several author ized Ford agencies, while 10,000 more are scattered over the United States. Every one of them is equipped with up-to-date machinery for handling Ford work, has competent mechanics, who understand how Ford cars are made and how to take care of them, and each agent carries a large stock of genuine Ford hiade parts. The Company further urges that only at these authorized agencies can the Ford owner be sure of getting genuine Ford materials, and only by the use of such materials can he obtain the maximum of service from his car. At the Ford agencies motors will be tuned up, carbon re moved, valves, adjusted and everything made ready for the "big summer drive". The work is done at reasonable rates, for Ford charges are uniform the country over. Service is a highly important feature in connection with a car at any time; it is doubly important at this season, and its a wise owner who oelieves in the new maxim, "If you would have a thing well done, go to a man who knows how." The Ford agents have men who know how to put Ford cars in tip top shape. Lee Hall, Prop. Ford Garage Ashland, Oregon
