A well-built roadbed does away with annoying, sleep-disturbing bumps . . . like a boat breasting a choppy sea. It gives you 'smooth sailing." The kind of gravel used for roadbed ballast is an important factor, Union Pacific uses a special, sturdy type of crushed granite which stands up particularly well "under wartime's heavily loaded freight and passenger trains; Then, too, it acts as a "cushion," resulting in mora comfortable riding and less wear on locomotives and cars Thus, even the ballast used on the railroad's roadbed plays its part in the efficient, 'round-the-clock transportation of troops and essential battle-line freight over Union Pacific's Strate gic Middle Route, uniting the East with the Pacific Coast. Future "smooth sailing" over life's highway can be assured by holding tight to the war bonds we now have . . . and, as an extra measure of economic protection, buying as many more as we can possibly afford. k listen to "YOUR AMERICA" radio program oa Mutual nationwide network (very Sunday aitarnooai' Consult your local newspaper for the Urn and station. thi nocussm UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD alBem frtnsi.l.!. . rejaa. i rs mwn.i r m a , J'ugn liDrrlen r JOHNSON PACKING CO. l f'1 Klamath "ne B4S THE HOME OF QUALITY MEATS PHONE 5323 innjni MV Hi.,.
