Held in Houston
Houston County folks increased
their holdings in United States
Saving Bonds during the past year.
Purchases exceeded redemptions;
by $525,697. Estimates on redenp
lions are $450,000.
Mayo Davis, county chairman, !
says this is going in the right di-1
rection and, further, that this coun
ty’s backlog of security in U. S.
Savings and War Bonds is a size- !
able amount.
Houston County people have
bought a grand total of $8,844,693
in War Bonds up to the first of this
year. They still hold about $5,500,
000 of these Bonds and are receiv- '
mg the tidy sum of about $120,000
to $140,000 a year in interest.
Many individuals are buyiny U. '

thrifty practice, some to educate I
their children, some to buy homes,
some for vacations, some as secu
rity for old age, and as protection
against further inflation. Many be
lieve that money saved in bonds
now will buy more in future years.

Two Perry Soldiers
At W. Robins Cited
Two Perry soldiers stationed at
Robins Field were commended by
Col. R, V. Ignico, commanding of
ficer of the Warner Robins Mate
rial Area, for their courage and de
votion to duty in connection with
the attempted rescue of victims of
! the recent crash near Robins Field.
The soldiers are Staff Sergeant
John M. Satterfield, Jr., son of Mr.
and Mrs. J. M. Satterfield, Sr., and ’
Sergeant Oscar Felton Deese, son of !
Mrs. J. W. Stubbs, both of Perry.
Satterfield and Deese were mem- j
bers of one of the volunteer squads
that penetrated deep into the
swamplands of the Ocmulgee River
in an effort to find the victims of
I the crash which killed seven. The
! search through the swamplands was
' carried out by soldiers and civilians
who worked hour after hour, with
out sleep, to force their way
through an almost impenetrable
tangle of branches and mud in the
hope there might be men still alive
in the wreckage of the aircraft.
Satterfield and Deese were com
mended in a General Order pub
lished at Robins Field March 4.

good transportation... at
low cost... and lots of ft!
From Puppyhood, Greyhound grew on one good idea:
to build a new, "American - style” travel system jor THE
PEOPLE.
Not mail ,., not freight ... hut PEOPLE.
The thing Greyhound knows best is how to get people
to the places they want to g 0... at the times they want to
go ... at prices they can afford. And Greyhound does this ,
for more cities, towns, villiages and corners than any '
other transportation system.
What’s more, Greyhound makes this "American-style”
travel friendly, easy, convenient... stopping in the heart
of big cities ... at the drug store across from the city
ha11...0r at Pete Jones’ farm, if that’s where Pete wants
to get off. c
Why do the people like Greyhound ? There’s your answer:
good transportation ... at low cost... and lots of it.
