SOUTHERN OREGON MINER
Greyhound Pays
Tribute to Schools
Railroads Must
Have Workers to
Meet Draft Loss
"Can you picture A uh land w ith­
out sohools?” asks Pacific Grey­
hound Line* In their current ad­
vertisement In thia newspaper, and
they continue with a tribute to the
educational aet-up of our com­
munity - teachers, school boards
and school executives.
Greyhound points out the vital
Importance of our educational
facilities and draws a parallel to
bus transportation which is also
Important to our progress and
which is used extensively by the
schools themselves.
"Shakespeare wrote of a'school
boy with shining face, creeping
like a snail unwillingly to school,"*
quoted F. W. Ackerman, Vice
President of Pacific Greyhound
bines, "but the modern student
traveling swiftly to school by
motor bus hardly fits that pic­
ture."
The bus executive, in stating
that Greymound la making ex­
tensive plans for finer and better
bus service after the war, pointed
out that Greyhound does not want
the public to forget the peacetime
pleasures of highway travel, and
for that reason they have contin­
ued their newspaper advertising
during the war. Instead of promot­
ing travel, however, their adver­
tising has been directed to helping
the armed forces In recruiting
campaigns and to feature vital
elements In community life, such
as this advertisement on schools.
The Greyhound school advertise­
ment Is another of this series and
many readers of this newspaper
will remember the question asked
In the preceding Greyhound mes­
sage, "Can you picture Ashland
without Newspapers?"

Smashing the Tin-Can Bogey
I t ’s -perfectly safe to leave un­
used food in tin cans in the re­
frigerator. Contrary to the popu­
lar belief, the metals used In com­
mercial canning are carefully se­
lected fo r safety, says Mrs. Julia
Kiene, director of the Westing-
house Home Economics Institute.
However, It is Important to cover
the can and refrigerate it prompt­
ly because air destroys certain
vitamins, and room temperature
encourages spoilage.
