Thursday, May 25, 1944 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?" Facing new manpower losses to !" to the armed forces, an urgent appeal for thousands of addition­ al workers to help the railroads fttsbquartrr« keep the Victory trains lulling, fcintteb dbtatei marine Corps and to avoid delays In busy rail a t. yards and shops, was made by L.
