Convepient g-hedules, excellent
service, shortness of toute, steel
trains and fast running time have
earned for the Seaboard Air Line its
slogan, “The Progressive Railroad of
the South.” This company ‘operates
in conjunction with Ngrthern rail
roads five daily fast through-trains
from New York and other points
through the winter resort section of
the Middle South to Florida.
Six States—Virginia, North and
South Carolina, Georgla, Florvida and
Alabama-—are penetrated by the Sea
board. It is the direct connecting
link between the National Capital and
the various capitals of the South. A
tourist may leave New York City and
most of the other larger cities of the
North and Middle West and travel
through the long leaf pines and over
the sand nills of the Carolinas with
out change to the glistening beaches
of Florida.
All the resorts of the Carolinas are
reached by diréct through trains of
the Seaboard. Schedules are so ar
ranged that the traveler who is mak
ing Florida his objective point has
ample and convenient opportunitie
of stopping over at any of the ideal
resorts in North smd South Carolina
The sand hills of the Carolinas first
attracted attention as a region for
establishing resorts for health and
pleasure scekers, because of the won
derfully dry atmosphere. The sand
prevents humidity The long leaf
pines make the air aromatic and
healthful. It is this region into which
the Seaboard Air Line runs
