The lesign "SR" is symbolical of the same of the road and the wording "The Southern Serves the South" is suggestive of the many lines ope rated by the Southern Railway throughout all of the states south of the Ohio and Potomac and east of the Misssissippi rivers. There is hardly a city or town of importance throughout the entire South that is not connected with the balance of the South, either di rectly by the Southern Railway's jwu trains or by sleeping car lines over other roads in connection with Southern Railway, via some adja cent junction point. On this ac count the i i Lie 4 The Sou lb ern Serves the South" was adopted as being appropriate. Soathern Railway spends about $200,000.00 a year ia advertising and a great deal of this advertising is done m the Northern, Eastern and Western sections of the coun try so as to attract people into the South, and on all of this advertising' matter this trade mark will appear hereafter.
