IN TINES LIKE THESE
In normal times, every organi-
BUY zation is thought of in terms of
its normal function.
SSE With GREYHOUND, it Is
i transportation . .. the means of
carrying you from where you
are to where you want to go . . . comfortably,
dependably, inexpensively.
But In times like these, GREYHOUND assumes
a much broader aspect: As the family car be
comes an item to be preserved, GREYHOUND
moves into the breach to play a dual role.
To its normal function as a carrier, It now con
tributes a service of incalculable value as a
conservator of rubber, metals, and fuel. With
greater carrying capacity per pound and per
gallon of these precious elements, buses are in
the forefront in the efforts toward national de
fense.
Carrying business men on trips, war-workers to
jobs, selectees to induction centers, service men
to camps and on furloughs, GREYHOUND is
doing double duty on America's Highways to
Victory!

* * * “KEEP 'EM ROLLING .. . Safely** * * *
JL ROM lonely hilltops . . . from city skylines and
farmhouse roofs . . . air raid wardens and watchers
constantly scan the sky for first signs of approaching
enemy planes.
Danger from the air is not the only peril faced to
day by our nation, our state and our communities.
Equally threatening to our liberty and pursuit of
happiness are those irresponsible few whose law vio
lations would bring disrepute to entire groups.
When, in Georgia’s $10,000,000 beer industry, the
occasional “black sheep" retailer is discovered, he is
required immediately to clean up. Otherwise, he is
turned over to authorities to close up.
Only the reputable beer retailer deserves j
reputable patronage. That's how YOU can help.
