These pic tures were most interesting and it was surprising to the writer what a large town Zebulon is and how beautiful it is from the air. From ! these pictures it was easily seen that Zebulon has a large number of vacant lots.

Eythe Lloyd Nolan Coming— RHAPSODY IN BLUE HERE'S PEACETIME BUSINESS The magic of the mind is imagination. Imagination trans formed America from a wilderness to the greatest indus trial and agricultural power on earth. Imagination—plus courage and determination beat the Germans and the Japs. Imagination will help win the peace, too. For winning the peace can be summed up in one word, prosperity! Yes, prosperity for all and prosperity means jobs. Who makes jobs? They come from American enterprise. And the Tele phone Company is proud to be a part of that enterprise. Because thrilling days lie ahead—big days that mean future prosperity for North Carolinians. The 3,712 men and women of the Telephone Company in North Carolina are now putting into effect the greatest expansion program in their history in this state, calling for an expenditure of millions of dollars. Their imagina tion did not go to sleep during the war years. It remained awake at the drawing boards. Blue prints are leaping to life with telephones for all who have been waiting for them, just as fast as we can secure the equipment. This is one of our top jobs! Tele phones for our farmer and rural friends are also being swiftly scheduled. A greatly expanded long distance service is in process, too. It will include the installation of coaxial cables so we can handle more calls with greater speed and convenience for you, and provide more facili ties for television. A lot of construction is to be done and a new service to motor vehicles is also in the offing. . What does it all mean? For one thing, it means a con tinuation of the pleasant, progressive partnership of the people of North Carolina and the people of the Telephone Company. Telephone folks are happy to be a part of this vast program that will lend so much impetus to the state s own industrial and agricultural expansion plans. As we see it, the future beckons North Carolina with a •>usy, prosperous hand! E. H. WASSON, Catolinas Manager SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY INCOItOIATII Friday, December 7, 1945
