Irom President Malcolm G. Jones concerning the series on “Safety”
'vere:
“When the traffic light turns red, we come to a stop.
Why?
Because we know it’s dangerous to go through.
That traffic light is safety equipment. We know from exper
ience that it works for our benefit.
The same with Safety equipment in our plant. It’s here for our
protection.
Using safety equipment—watching safely rules—helps us all stay
Wealthy and happy.
Taking that “little chance”—forgetting to lake care—isn t worth
iiijury and pain it can bring.
Wherever we arc—at work, at play, at home—Safety pays off for
ii^ch of us.

Why You Get Tired
When You Perspire
Sweating in hot weather can
cause a tired, listless feeling and
make every move an effort. These
symptoms are caused by the loss
of salt from the system. Salt is
lost amazingly fast through pers
piration. As vigor and vitality-
go down, the accident rate can
go up. Prompt replacement of
this salt can quickly restore vigor
and vitality and the most satis-

Tarnoff Optimistic
About Fall Outlook
The following is a message to
THE CAROMOUNT NEWS.
From Executive Vice President
Norman Tarnoff:
Did you know that Judy Hol
liday will probably have a coat
next winter made of our Contes-
sa quality which will be fabri
cated for her by the same design
er who made her very expensive
mink coat?
With our greatly expanded
automotive business, it is more
than likely that our fabrics will
be in the 1956 models of Ford,
Chevrolet, Buick, Oldsmobile,
Cadillac, Packard, Dodge, Stude-
baker and Chrysler. As a mat
ter of fact, don’t be surprised to
see Beavertex being sold as op
tional equipment for floor cover
ing on the Cadillac Eldorado.
You are probably having a
rough time trying to find a Davy
Crockett hat for your five year
old. Our Ray Alto Sable Tipped
is going great guns and if we ever
catch up with the demand, you
will then probably find the hat in
your local store.
We are counting on you to
nurture our two starlets, Baron-
essa and Contessa, in such a way
as to assure them top billing in
every fine store this fall.
