anew how barren havd been the
rewards of higher learning in
America up till now. Irt its 336

with which a handy Harvard man

any parent knows, what baby sit
ters ask nowadays certainly ain’t
hay.
Elephants also are more handy
around the home than a husband.
They will move heavy furniture
about all day long without com
plaining. They can be taught to
sweep, spray dirty dishes, dust
rooms. They are loyal and won’t
gossip about your household af

known to do. j

Supervisor’s Place
In Safety Is Topic
Of Extension Talk
"The Supervisor's Place In Safe
ty'’ was the subject of D. L. Htd-
cner'* speech given In Pasadena,
Texas. The talk was delivered to
the April Meeting of the Gulf
Coast chapter of the American So
ciety of Safety Engineers. Belcher
is an Extension Instructor for the
Industrial Extension Service of
Texas A&M College.
The fact was stressed by Belcher
that the industrial supervisor is
extremely important to the suc
cessful carrying out of a safety
program. He pointed out that an
effective program of safety can
not be achieved without the super
visor being convinced of the value
of an accident-free work force.
After thet talk the meeting was
opened to discussion by those at
tending. The items to be included
in a good safety training program
were also worked out then.

"We have better punch," he says
