Certificates Of Safety Are Presented Here
AWARDS ARE MADE
BY STATE LABOR
COMMISSIONER
Champagne An Endless Belt
Are Honored For Out
standing Records
During separate ceremonies that
lasted approximately twenty min
utes for each company on Friday
morning, January 17th., certificates
were presented to the employees
of both Champagne Paper Corpo
ration and Endless Belt Corpora
tion by Commissioner Forrest H.
Shuford of the North Carolina De
partment of Labor.
Operations were discontinued by
each company for the ceremony,
and with the majority of the em
ployees present, Commissioner
Shuford was introduced by H. E.
Newbury.
Mr. Shuford was very compli
mentary in his praise for the en
tire personnel of both Companies
for their wonderful co-operation in
their respective accident preven
tion programs, and stated that he
had always found the manage
ment ready and willing to carry
out all suggestions from his de
partment, with reference to the
health, safety, and welfare of the
workers.
Mr. Shuford also stated that
when management co-operated as
they have done here as to guard
ing machinery, establishing safe
practice standards, and furnishing
personal protective equipment for
the personnel, then it was the re
sponsibility of the employees to
know and follow the safety sug
gestions, as well as to use the pro
tective equipment furnished them.
Commissioner Shuford said that
the results obtained through acci
dent prevention work in both com
panies has been most outstanding,
and the entire personnel was to
be congratulated.
CHAMPAGNE operated from
August 28, 1945 to January 7,
1947 without loss of time due to
personal injury, and this record
of 496 days amounts to 626,037
MANHOURS.
ENDLESS BELT had operated
a total of 1,008 consecutive days
without any lost time cases,
through January 16th. Their last
lost time accident occurred on
April 13, 1944, and they have ac
cumulated over 600,000 MAN-
HOURS since that date.
Mr. Shuford stated that as far
as he knew, no other plant in the
state had reached the record of
1,008 consecutive accident free
days.
In accepting the Certificates in
behalf of the two companies, Mr.
Straus expressed his appreciation
to the entire personnel for the
part they played in helping bring
such recognition to their depart
ments, and urged that they contin
ue to observe safe practices. He
emphasized again as he has many
times in the past, that he was vi
tally interested in the personal
welfare of each individual, and
would continue to do everything
possible to promote even safer
working conditions throughout
the plant.
Mr. Straus also expressed his
appreciation to Mr. Shuford for the
wonderful co-operation and guid
ance that has been contributed by

panies in their accident prevention programs.
The Forgotten Meal
Most of us take our stomach for
granted. We eat “on the run,”
sometimes standing up, don’t give
ourselves an opportunity to prop
erly digest our food, and general
ly abuse our stomach to such an
extent that it’s amazing that we
don’t have more of a “protest”
from it than we do.
This is particularly true of our
lunches . . . the forgotten meal.
We should rely on our noonday
meal to provide one-third of our
nourishment, but you would never
think so, the way many of us

Nutrition authorities say that
to be well-nourished, an adult
should have each day, one pint of
milk, one or more servings of
green or yellow vegetables, one
or more servings of fruit, two or
more servings of potatoes of solid
vegetables, one or more servings
of lean meat, poultry, dried beans
or peas, two servings of whole
grain products (cereals and bread),
butter or fortified margarine, and
fats and sweets in sufficient quan
tity to satisfy the appetite.
Here are suggestions to give
your lunches the proper balance
in terms of the above daily nu
trition needs:
Try a vegetable plate (three or
more hot cooked vegetables),
rolls, fruit and milk , , , or order
a roast beef sandwich on whole
wheat bread, combination salad,
milk or cocoa and dessert if you
like ... or a steaming bowl of
tomato soup, egg salad, bran muf

Then a life insurance representa

She stole a look at the amount
