Additional information may be secured from the local Post Office or the Miner office. get in the thick of things, the Seabees offer ACTION. They're a tough, hard-hitting organization of spe cialists who build bases and help hold them, repair battle-damaged ships and other Navy equipment, back up the combat line with tools and guns. Seabees arc specialists, and get full credit for their knowledge. In addition to their base pay, ranging from $50 to $126 a month, they get all living and clothing expenses, plus family allowance, plus 20% of base pay for overseas service. Here’s adventure, action, satisfying war service for red-blooded Americans between 17 and 50 with an unusual appeal to mature men over 38 with a trade. Ask for details of the new voluntary induction plan of enlistment for men between 18 and 38. GREYHOUND provides vital transportation for the Seabees—gets them to and from mainland jobs and embarkation points, carries them on leave, and serves their training centers. For example, when Camp Parks, new Seabee center near Livermore,California, was opened,Greyhound immediately was called upon to provide the service it needed. This is only one of hundreds of military camps served exclusively or partially by Greyhound.This naturally diverts many buses from civilian service, and makes your patriotic cooper ation more vital. So again we say: Please don’t travel unless it is absolutely necessary. t AVOID UNNECESSARY TRAVEL BUY WAR BONDS « I INSTEAD
