PROX Circular 340 BITS LIFETIME GUARANTEE Every Prox cutter chain is guaranteed for life against breaking and any broken part will be replaced without time limit. Invincible ToolSteel Chain HOW IT WORKS Quick and reliable operation is apparent from the design. The circular back of the ToolSteel bit is perfectly embraced by the tool post, with its flat front face wedgelocked against an inclined surface ahead. The Mac-It screw "steps on the toe" of the toolpost forcibly, and working forces simply help tighten up this wedgelock, yet bit may be changed quickly. Once locked, neither the bit or toolpost can lose out, nor can the bit be improperly set, insuring absolutely uniform bit gauge. The toolpost may be removed by turning the screw several times, no "bite" of screw being required to keep it in, insuring positive locking action without back straining effort. The invaluable feature of compactness is retained in the Invincible-ToolSteel chain. It was not necessary to make it a lot larger to make it stronger. There is no massive or overhanging link or bit holder structure, consequently drag, leverage, and cutterbar and machine upkeep is reduced. The toolpost is squarely behind the ToolSteel bit and is cut to fit the circular back of the bit, so that under extremely abrasive conditions the toolpost is capable of wearing down to a stub without losing bits. �, STR ONGEST HARDEST BIT This ToolSteel bit is formed with a full circular back edge-the strongest possible design-not sawed straight line with slender angle. It is made by a new patented multiple forging process, of fine alloy tool steel, then scientifically hardened in modern controlled heat treating furnaces to an extreme hardness closely approximating that of High Speed (tungsten) steel and possesses high shock resistance. It is an ideal cutting tool for mining machine service. The Invincible ToolSteel Chain NO BIT IS CHEAPER When all costs are considered, along with savings and advantages obtained with ToolSteel bits no other bit is cheaper to use. The ToolSteel bit gives you saving in power, increased tonnage, decreased machine upkeep, and gets the job done on time. E ach of these ToolSteel points cuts at least as much as a hard tipped ordinary mine bit, and many times as much as usual treated mine bits. At small added cost the ToolSteel bits can be supplied from factory tipped with Borium or Hastellite, and some mines also tip them. NO BIT IS QUICKER ToolSteel bits are quicker and easier to set than usual mine bits. There is only one holder, no hard "bite" of the screw is required, and no time is lost in gauging. Yet all bits are as evenly gauged in the chain as teeth on a saw, and they can't lose out. It is only natural that upkeep costs for mining machines using this chain and bit should be much less. DEPENDABLE SER VICE Every part is drop forged-no castings used. The nickel-chrome-molybdenum steel used in these chains is a very fine alloy specification also used in aircraft engines. That is why Invincible chains with ToolSteel bits have set such new high records as 700,000 tons in IIlinois hard cutting conditions, and raised a former average of 16 places to a new average of 28 places cut per 7 hour shift, with a high record of 36. STANDS THE PUNISHMENT ToolSteel Bit Actual Size Any chain will do if the cutting is easy, but the Invincible chain shows its superiority in the meanest cutting conditions a mining machine is ever required to meet. The patented Interlocked and triple-riveted design is a feature afforded on no other chain. Of course the bits will not cut sulphur balls -no steel will do it. But this chain and bit will stand the racket, get the work done, and give a good account of itself. It is a fact that the ToolSteel bit and its holder protect the chain against coring so that the chain life in extreme hard cutting is often doubled. The Interlocks act as little rakes to bring out the cuttings and leave a clean kerf. �' TIME PROVE N A good many ideas about bits and holders have exploded against an unseen sulphur ballthe requirements are extremely trying. The Invincible-ToolSteel chain and bit meets all these requirements and has four years of fully proven highly satisfactory experience to its credit in a great many mines. You are not asked to experiment-the advantages this equipment offers you went through several years testing and changing prior t o placing it on the market four years ago. PROX CHAINS AND BITS ARE MADE IN THIS MODERN SPECIALLY EQUIPP ED PLANT ON THE BANKS OF THE WABASH RIVER , • EXTRE M E SIMPLICITY AND CONVENIENCE You can use the Invincible-ToolSteel chain and bits on your mining machine wit hout changing the usual sprocket or cutterbar in any · way-nothing special is required. Th'e single bit holder has a one inch round shank, it is drop forged and completely machined. Seated against its front face, and protecting it, is the ToolSteel bit. Acting on its "toe" to wedgelock the bit is a ¼" Mac-It screw. No hard pressure of the screw is needed, for working force on the bit simply tries to tighten this wedgelock. Cores coming between bits are bumped off by the slanting sides of the holder before injury can be done, and the holder head may be worn half way to the chain block without losing bits. The bits are aiways easy and quick to change, and holder cannot lose out because of the screw down upon its toe. THE F ULL SOLUTION The ToolSteel bits arrive at your mine in sealed steel convenient containers of 500, and they completely supplant your old bit program. No more forges, sharpening machines, hard facing equipments, or collecting or distributing of bits through the mine. This container of bits represents your entire cost for the cutting obtainable with 1000 scientifically hardened alloy tool steel cutting points each exactly uniform in hardness, toughness, shape, clearance, gauge and cutting power-things you could never obtain with your old bit program. - YO U CAN'T LOSE If you contact us next time you need a cutter chain, we will be glad t_o ~end you ~omplete information, if you will mention the type and length undercut. of your mmmg ffl:achmes.

These sockets accommodate full 4¾ " mine bits-you are not forced to use short bit stock. Of special interest is the fact Prox chains bring the cuttings out to produce a cleaned kerf due to the interlocks acting as small rakes. The P1·ox chains give you many very definite advantages that entail costlier manufacturing operations. Due to their widespread use on all the popular types of mining machines they are offered you for no more than you would pay for other chains that do not have these advantages.

Balance is essential between the various machines making up a mechanical mining uni to If your loader can put out 400 to 700 tons in a shift and your· cutter can provide only 300 to 400 tons ... the result invariably is a reduction in possible output per man and higher cost.

Dear Sir: Your interest in this great subject of Resuscitation led us, some months ago, to send you literature on the H-H Inhalator. You will be glad to know that the treatment proposed has been securing results far beyond the fondest expectations of the sponsors. H-H Inhalators are contributing daily to the saving of lives tha t would otherwise doubtless be lost. Your hesitancy in adopting this treatment may _,,,. ,have been due to an opinion that this was an experiment. ,/ Far from that -- it is a definitely established power for . /. good. H-H Inhalators will give victims of gas asphyxia i~ n, smoke suffocation, etc., every possible chance for c mplete recovery without complications. �Partial List of Users of THE ~ H INHALATOR OIL COMPANIES Atlnntic Refining Co.

A Growing Menace in Factory, Mine, Home and Garage Many hundreds of lives are lost annually in the various industries and in the home from gas asphyxiation, smoke suffocation or from respiratory failures due to other causes. Many more are only partially overcome but are subjected to doubtful and often dangerous treatments, due to the lack of proper knowledge and facilities for handling such cases. Carbon Monoxide is one of the chief health hazards around blast furnaces and Fresno (Cal.) Fire Dept. in mines in case of fire or explosion. Givini:thevictimeverypossiblccbance Every stove in a dwelling house is a ' potential hazard. It is one of the dangers every city fireman faces . . Men who work in garages are almost daily subjected to partial poisoning by carbon monoxide. To meet the constantly growing demand for more knowledge on the subject of Asphyxia, a commission, formed at the request of the American Gas Association, began investigations to determine the best means of treating individuals overcome by gas, smoke, fumes, etc. THE COMMISSION REPORTED: MECHANICAL DEVICES OFFER NOTHING that Manual Respiration can not offer, and strongly recommends that the prone method be employed. INHALATION TREATMENT APPROVED-consisting of the inhalation of a mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide, which causes a rapid ventilation of the lungs, quickly removing toxic gases from the blood. H-H INHALATOR EXAMINED AND APPROVED for the administering of the inhalation treatment. C.lia.ll'Lber ofCo.n,.merce .B/lig. • .P.ins..burg.h, Pennsy/vanza �No. 801 _;n;;,e uafety App/lances Co. PAGE 3 The Principle of the Inhalation Treatment A victim of gas asphyxiation, smoke suffocation, etc., who is still breathing, is for the time deprived of the power to transport sufficient oxygen from the air thru the lungs to the blood. Theoretically, oxygen inhalation is the obvious method for overcoming the asphyxia. Practically how• ever, the inhalation of oxygen alone does not fulfill its theoretical promise. An auxiliary agent is needed. The breathing of a normal man or animal, as is now well known, is largely regulated by the carbonic acid gas (CO,) produced in the muscles and organs and carried by the blood to the respiratory center in the brain. Carbonic acid is the natural stimulus to this center and thus regulates normal breathing. The supplying of enough carbonic acid gas mixed with oxygen has been found to serve as an immediate stimulus to spontaneous breathing by the patient, thus drawing oxygen in and washing the poisonous gases out of the tissues. Carbogen is the trade name of the correct mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide to produce normal stimulation and the maximum absorption of O"")'gen. The H-H Inhalator is a d evice • for administering Carbogen to the patient. When respiration has stopped, artificial respiration by th e manual prone pressure method should be employed to start spo n• taneous breathing. This effort should be assisted by administering Carbogen simultaneously from the H-H Inhalator. Carbogen, by causing full ventilation of the lungs, rapidly eliminates poisonous gas from the blood and thus terminates the co ndition of asphy,da. The treatment is highly effective, inducing ra pid an d com• plete recovery if applied early enough.

Deer Mr. Segrave; Your letter of Ju11e 21st at hand. Wish to state in re~l;; th[tt ns you said in your letter, newspapers u:sua.11.y tell of the ~·,ork of the pullmotor i11 gas disasters, but ,for ;rour information the kin'ti of oxygen machines that ,·,ere used at the time were the H~H Inhalator. We succeeded in completely restoring the lives of ·two men wr. o were taken out of the Power Plant apparently dead by the Prone Pressure metPod of resuscitation in connection with the lnhalator. Regarding the details of the die aster, I can say no1;h ing more than the exue.ssi ve gas pressure vh ich was thrown into the lines b r oke thru the water seal and gas escaped i1Jto a basement room in which two electricians were at work. The gas fumes were so dense that the remaining six men v.ho we re partially over come were those who rusbe d into the building for rescue \.Ork. The two men that were restored to life by resuscitation am the lnhalator were placed in a hospital on Sunday and one was dismissed on Tuesday and the other on Wednesday and are now back at work. The remaining ,,.,ho were partially overcome by gas lost no time with the exception of one man who lost a cou:ple o-f days which was due to stomach disorders. I need not state that the li-H Inhalator measures up to all that is claimed for there is no better recoIIlllendation can be given than the fact that I have placed an order for another Inhalator which we expect to use and along with the two that we alreadY have ivill be used exclusively for rese=ue warle.

The Inhalator has been borrowed by various hospitals on cases which have nothing to do with gas asphyxiation° The police departments of l?awtucket and Central Falls have also called for the Inhalator on various cases of electrical shocks, drownings, etc. During the past year we have had several calls for the Inhalator due to attempt at suicide by gas. In all these cases the application of the Inhalator has been successful and the persons fully recovered from effects of the gas poisoningo One woman at Central Falls having been overcome for some little time before her case ·was known. One call of some little interest was made at Woonsocket where three men had been confined in a gas filled bedroom for many hours. The initial use of the Inhalator prolonged the lives of the victims as they lived two days after being resuscitated, but due to other symptoms outside of the gas it was impossible for the men to live . . We have also had many small cases where the patient was only partly overcome by gas and the Inhalator hastened their recovery and prevented a great d~al of the after sickness. We have also used the Inhalator in demonstrating first aid at public exhibitions.

On hearing a report similar to a heavy bottom shot they stopped work. In a few seconds the air became hazy and Johns knew something serious had happened. He and his buddy decided to take the motor which was standing nearby and run out to the main heading whioh was the main haulage on the intake. They had only gone a short distance when the motor ran onto a fall. By that time Johns and Beltti were groggy and Johns having his Self-Rescuer with him put it on and started with his buddy to walk. They had only gone a short distance when Beltti was overcome and Johns went on alone. On reaching the main heading be met William Harper who was bringing a trip from the outside and be told Harper where Beltti had fallen some distance in the 7th left heading. Harper took the Self-Rescuer from Johns (the main heading and haulage ventilation not being damaged) and went back into the 7th left, with the motor 1 located Beltti and brought him outside unconscious, although later he came around in good shape. Raymond Johns was one of the few who believed in carrying the Self-Rescuer or, •tin can", as some of the miners named it, and he said that had it not been for the Rescuer he would have lost his life. Beltti also owes his life to the fact that Johns carried the Self-Rescuer. The bulletin attached shows several methods of installation. If you will be kind enough to fill in and mail the enclosed card to us, one of our representatives will gladly arrange a demonstration for you at your mine in actual carbon monoxide gas - of course without any obligation whatsoever. very truly, PLIANCES COMPANY, I, ,.,,_f!M -...... , .....1....__ BBl'.:LB B.

There's a feeling of security wearing a Hard Boiled Hat, and this tends to raise the morale of the wearer. Hard Boiled Hats weigh only 7 ounces, so the men are equally strong for them from a convenience angle. In commenting on the experiences of his mine safety department, Mr. W. D. Brennan makes the statement at the Fourth Annual Convention of Practical Operating Men under auspices of the American Mining Congress, held at Cincinnati, Ohio, from May 16th to 20th, 1927, that: "Hard Boiled Caps are one of the safety precautions used by the under-ground workers on the properties under Mr. Brennan's direction, and Coal Age for May 26th, 1927, reports him to say that 'Now the Company (Phelps-Dodge Corporation) is insisting on the use of Hard Boiled Caps in the coal mines. Where they have been installed in one of the metal mines of the same Company they have practically prevented the occurrence of head accidents from the falling of _rock. They have unquestionably saved several lives during the present year.'" Two Styles 1. Special processed fiber, water and acid froof, non-conductor o electricity, blow resisting. 2. Air space, allowing free circulation of air. 3. Ventilating holes. 4. Lining adjusting cord, adjustable to fit head comfortably. 5. "Hammocking" effect of lining distributes blow equally. 6. Lining sewed on outer side of hat. Can't tear loose. 7. Sweat band; insures comfort. 8. Southwester brim pro• tects neck and shoulders. The Hard Boiled Hat Pre-rents Head Injuries The Hard Boiled Hat supplies individual protection to the miner. It is made of fiber, pressed together under a patented process, so as to give positive protection to the wearer. EYery Miner Wants One Once a miner has worn a Hard Boiled Hat it is hard to get him in a mine with- Hard Boiled Hats come in two styles for mine use, either without lamp bracket or with lamp bracket for carbide or electric lamps. The Southwester type protects the neck and shoulders, as well as the head, and is especially valuable for wet places, shedding the drip. Send For _a Sample We will gladly send you a Hard Boiled Hat or Cap of the type in which you are interested. Specify with or without lamp bracket and whether carbide or electric lamp. The price of a Cap is $2.75 and $3.00 for the Southwester. Quantity prices will be quoted on application.
