THROUGHOUT the Southland, thousands of clear
eyed youngsters...schooled in the traditions that have
made America what it is today... are busily preparing to
bring new greatness to Southern industry, agriculture and
commerce... and better living to all America.
The lad poring over his chemistry book will some day
make marvelous new things from Southern minerals,
woods, cotton and many other Southern products.
The farm boy with the “green thumb” will raise huge
crops and fine cattle on his fertile native soil.
The boy with inventive genius will find the South eager
to employ his ideas.
And the youngsters who thrill |as our trains rush by
will some day... as railroaders... help to bring better liv
ing to all America. For the Southern Railway System
will carry these products of peace with the same speed
and efficiency and economy that it now carries Southern
products to war.
Like all Southerners, we are now putting our might
into the war to speed Victory and to help build a better,
stronger South.
Like all Southerners, we are also doing our part to
make the South a land of opportunity for the youngsters
who are growing up today.
