The London General Omnibus Co., Ltd., have just decided to install a number of first-aid boxes at terminal points on their routes for the benefit of busmen who may sustain slight cuts or other minor injuries during the day.
Apropos of this provision, it may not be generally known that, in the event of an accident occurring at the overhauling depot of the company at Chiswick, a hooter gives a signal which not only summons the regular ambulance squad, but also indicates at the first-aid post the location of the accident. Ambulance equipment is installed at several points in the depot, and by this means it is possible to render prompt assistance in the ease of injury to an employee.
