The A B C of Safety

The A B C of Safety.

Mr. H. W. Clapp, Chairman, Railways Commissioners, Victoria, recently brought under the notice of Victorian railwaymen the following Safety First Slogans:—

The A.B.C. of Safety—always be careful.
Use, don't lose, your head.
It is everybody's business to be careful.
Be wreck-less, not reckless.
Get Safety into vour svstem.

* * *

Of all the sad surprises
There's nothing to compare,
With treading in the darkness
On a step that isn't there.
