Praises Facilities
Offered in Athens
\
Athens is served by passenger
frains on a parity with the beut;
and most famous in the United
States, and far superior to many, |
JAccording to 'W. J. Ficht, nerY!
appointed district passenger agent
for the Seaboard Airline railway. |
Mr. Ficht, whose appointment
has just been announced by H. E.
Pleasants, assistant general pafi-l
senger agent, is one of the most
popular of the younger Seaboard
officials, He has served the rail- |
way in various capacities for mure{
than 18 years, having been sta- |
tioned in Buffalo, Pittshurgh, Chi
cago, St. Petersburg and Tampa.
Athens, according to Mr. Ficht,
is blessed with a railway flervk‘e{
equal to that of any other city in|
the country, and superior to many, |
“You hear a lot about fammm'
trains, but world-wide travelers!
Wwill tell you that the Robert E.l
Lee and the Cotton States Special
are the last word in modern trans
portation,” he said. “Increasing
popularity of these trains with the
passengers hetween Atlanta andl
Wiashington and New York evi-!
dences the public’s eppreciation ot!
superior railway service,” (

A FREE RIDE FOR
! EVERYBODY ‘
e
! Heading the Omnibus today is a
poem written by the Rev, Jack
Nichols, student at the University
of Georgia and pastor of several
Methodist churches in this sec
tion,
It is very seldom that a poem
appears in the Omnibus but this
poem by Mr. Nichols has something
of value. So, here it is: |
“ARE YOU LISTENING?” 1
Are you listening? ‘
What a familiar phrase,
People alwayg talking
Some with words of criticism
Others with words of praise,
But say:
Friends across the way
Are you listening?
Morning, noon and night,
Voices everywhere,
Demanding that you listen
And perhaps to share
Their message of joy and gladness
Of sorrow and of woe,
Then isn’'t it fine to he a listener
As up the journey of life we go.
Ah! I say:
My friends across the way
Are you listening? X,
Did you ever come
To the close of a day
Weary, worn and discouraged
Just ready to say:
It isn’'t worth the price
Fo always wear a smile,
You questioned the way of life,
‘When a “still small voice” seem
ed to say,
Try listening for awhile,
Hush! T seem to hear you zay
Friends across the way,
“I'm listening.” .
