Pt Ae %6. LARGEST CIRCULATION IN TERRACE BAY NOVEMBER 1, 1948 SSS THAT NEW FERLING It's only natural for a person to feel a little tightened up and jittery on a new job in a new mill. A man really has to be pretty cockey to feel' at home during the first few days under such circumstances, With the addition of so many new employees to LongLac's operating payroll it is important that everyone should appreciate the above fact. At some time or other, everyone of us has experienced "that new feeling." Throughout ,;the mill, every effort is being made to give each new employee the opportunity to "learn the ropes." On the job training is being given by those "in the know! and employees thus trained are learning to do the job "the right way" which is of course "the safe way." In the mill itself, no effort or expense is being spared to safeguard operators against mechanical hazards. The maze of guards and guard rails makes this fact self-evident. The combination of safeguards and good training should make our mill a very safe place in which to work. This will 'be so, 'however, only as each individual accepts personal responsibility for thinking and working safely.' No one is expected to take chances in order to do a job. Everyone is urged to "play it safe" all the time, 0-0-0 CANADA SAVINGS BOND SALES $36,600 The books have now been closed and final tabulations show that LongLac Pulp and Paper Company employees -- have agreed to: purchase $36, 600.00 worth of Third Series Canada Savings Loan Bonds.
