A PEEK AT THE FUTURE
The chap who designs
Greyhound Super-Coaches

above idea. It’s not built
yet, but it will be as sure
as Nippon’s "rising sun”
will set.
Yes, the bus riders’ fu
ture is bright. Some day
you may even travel by
Greyhound helicopter if
present plana pan out. So
don’t judge tomorrow’s
bus ride by what you’re
gettin’ now, when we are
short of buses and long on
passengers . . . doin’ our
best to serve the Armed
Forces, war-workers and
other essential travelers.
Three pillp and paper companies are
giving to the farmers of South Caro
lina, 1.500,000 free pine seedlings forL
the present planting season, W. (j. Mc-|
Carley., county agent announces.

fascism is bred—clearing a new trail for the people's
freedom. And America's fighting men and women
join arms with the fighting strength of the United
