Once Butcher Clerk
Af Gene Aiwm hud been u reully
first clasR butcher's helper, he might
not be a topnotch comic artist today.
It was along about 1912 that Gene
was working in a meat market in
Cleveland, Ohio.
He was a good enough worker, at
that; but he'd been to art school
and liked to draw, so he filled in u
lot of time at work by sketching little
figures?girls, cows, steamboats
and what not?on the long rolls of
brown paper in which the shop's meat
was wrapped.
One day a man connected with a
large fashion house came into the
market
Six pork chops," said the man.
"Forty-eight cents," replied Gene,
as he handed the meat over. On the
brown wrapping paper were some
sketches Gene hud made.
"Who drew these?" asked the customer.
"Oh, I did?just for the fun of it,"
suid dene.
"It'd be even more fun if you got
paid for it, wouldn't it?" asked the
man.
Gene admitted that it would. Ths
conversation continued Gene told of
bis studies trt art school and of his
fc ndness for sketching. The stranger
expressed interest, and wound up by
offering Gene a job in his fashion art
department.
1 his was better than wrapping up
link sausages, so Gene took it. He
hardly set the world on fire in hi3
rew job, but he learned a lot about
drawing, and that's what Counts.
In 1914 Gene went down to the office
of the Newspaper Enterprise
Association, leading newspaper feature
service, and grabbed off a job in
the art department.
Lee Taylor, 09, died in a Fort
Worth, Texas, hospital "yesterday-following
his being trampled by an infuriated
bull. A 9-year-old dog tried
to rescue his master, but was unable
to do so.
Representative Olin D. Johnston, of
Spartanburg, candidate for governor
in the summer primary, announced
Tuesday that the fight against the
$65,QOO,0OO road bond issue would be
continued. Johnston is quoted as saying
"The fight has just begun."

OThe Coast Line
?r\\/ _ 4 family j ^
I ?g
THE Petersburg Railroad, organized 100 years
ago, was conceived by -the people of Petersburg,
Virginia, as a means of increasing their
trade. It was built with funds subscribed oy the
citizens and the city of Petersburg, and by the
State of Virginia. Its officers and employees were
men who lived in Petersburg or the sections
along the railroad.
Much the same is true of the other railroads
that wfere later brought together in the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad Company.
By far the larger number were built by local
initiative, mostly with local capital, to supply
local transportation needs. Their officers were
men prominent in local affairs and their employees
were drawn from the pick of the substantial
people living along their rails.
Practically everybody in the sections they
served had a direct personal -interest in these
railroads because they were owned and run by
people whom they knew.
Railroad officers not* only knew every employee
by-his first name but knew something
about each man's family. Every employee knew
all the officers.
Common interest in their work, a common
pride in overcoming obstacles and making a
good showing for the Company, bound officers
and other employees together.
With the growth of the Atlantic Coast Line,
men who demonstrated their ability advanced to
more responsible jobs, until in turn many of
them became officers. Each brought with him
that intimate knowledge of the work so essential
-X
to successful railroad operation. Each was imbued
with that loyalty to the common cause that has
made the "Coast Line Family" a reality.
TJie ever lengthening rails of the Atlantic
Coast Line now make impossible the constant
contact between all officers and all employees,
but the "family" tradition persists as strongly
as it ever did' and is the\Coast Line's most
valuable asset.
Scores of Coast Line employees have never
worked for any other employer, Some families *
have given three generations of valued workers
to the Coast Line organization.
Thirty - four Coast Line employees have
worked for. the Company or its predecessors
for 50 yearSp 1384 have served it 25 years
or, longer.
Officers and employees?the men who run the
Coast Line today?are for the most part from the
sections served by Coast Line rails. They know
the country and the people; they know the transportation
needs of every industry. Many of them
own farms or are partners in various enterprises.
All have a personal interest in the advancement
and growth of the Southeast.
Tney and the Atlantic Coast Line are part and
parcel of the Southeast; of one blood with the
people-that they serve.
And as long as the Atlantic Coast Line can
attract to its ranks the same type of workers
It has been fortunate in having in the past it is
confident of its ability to render an increasingly
valuable service to the people and the industries
of the Southeast. 4
