^TTTVN UNION RECOKDEk, MILL EDGE VI LEE, GA-. SEPTEMBER 12, 1(2* H eart to heart TALK™ My neighbor and friend has ttrau berry field, which he cultivat for the market- His success depends of course on his diligence and the weather conditions. The last crop came through under difficulties; the heavy spring rains heat furiously on the tender plants; it seemed for .*1 time that they would be buried in mud and destroyed. But, at each gleam of sunshine, they sprang to life and vigor again; it was a struggle—a very hard one. At la-! however, they grew strong, hurst in to bloom, and soon ripened the choicest berries 1 have ever seen. They were sweeter, the neighbor said, for their having plenty of mois- which trace renewed vigor and more active growth. Had there been no cloud,, rain and mud. he would not have had half a crop, and that inferior berries. I thought of myself as i pla thi.- large field .f humanity. Whe from the chill ami fo: drops.

FOR RENT—Tw, apartments for re Black. ated Central of Georgia Discusses Public Relations Campaign of the Railroads Few activities of a railroad are to little understood .as those dealing with its public relatione work. Some patrons, as well as some employes, consider this phaRt of railroad operation as including only the ia-uance, through nevi*papers „ r other means, of statements intended to put the railroads in a favorable light. This is by no means the case. Properly speaking, public relation- work includes practically every phase of railroad operation. In their public relations campaign the railroads are, frankly, endeavoring to re tain and increase the good will of the public—not; through the distribution of “rail road propaganda" but by rendering the kind of service which the public has a right t 0 expect. No inefficient, poorly managed or operated railroad can win public favor by is-uing fahe or misleading statements about itself. Any advertising enmpagin, whether to sell goods or to gain good will, must be based upon the facts. No such campaign could be effective unless it dealt strictly with the truth. Before a railroad can properly and profitably talk about it«*lf, it must bring its service up to the highest pos-ible standard of efficiency. Then and ♦ hen only can it property come before the public with a statement of its accomplish ments and its problem;-. The policy of taking the public into the railroads’ confi dence ha- made it necessary for the railroads to have Something worth telling the public. For the post eight years the Central of Georgia and a number of other railroads have, through the medium of paid advertisements and other periodical tetatements, sought to keep the public and their own employes fully informed as to railroad ac complishments and problems. The management of this railroad believes that the people of its territory—both patrons and employes—have a right to the facts about its operation. Since, under modern conditions, railroad service Affects the lives and living of almost everyone, difference- of opinion as to the costs or other features of railroad service are to some extent inevitable. Where these differences do arise, railroad management believes that the obligation rests upon it to mukc a frank and truthful statement of it- side of the question. It is eigrtfiount that since the railroads adopted this policy of taking the public into their confidence, co rporation between patrons and the railroads has been greater than ever before and transportation service has in this country reached the highest standard in history. The Central of Georgia ha 1 : no designated public relations officer or department. The management looks upon every offcier and employe as a public relations repre sentative. It weeks to have each of these representntives recognize his responsibility to the patrorfc of the railroad. It seeks to have those officer* and employes who come in direct c ontact with the public realize the importance and the value of courtesy efficiency and an intelligent knowledge of the service and facilities of this and other railroads. It seeks to have its .other officers and employes recognize their respon sibility to co-operate in keeping this railroad’s service up to the standard thet Will deserve the public’s good will. It expects every employe to measure up to the highest standard of good citizen-hip in his community. Upon the fundamental principle of rendering service as efficiently and economically as possible is based the cnlf.re public relations campaign of the Central of Georgia. Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. A. E. CLIFT, President, Central of Georgia Railway Company.
