But today there’s also a faster kind of Trail ways service known as thru express. Thru ex press takes you great distances without change and with less stops enroute. Many 200 mile trips are made non-stop; and very often a bus will travel 500 miles with only 2 or 3 stops. A Trallways Bus itinerary can be worked out to fit your particular needs, whether your trip is for 10 miles or 1000 miles; and you ride In America’s newest bus fleet. 7RAILWAYS ZEBULON BUS STATION Gannon Avenue Phone AN 9-2261 TOURS CHARTERS PAf.KAGC EXPRESS Mrs. E.

Now let us tell you why you, and every member of this rural electric system should attend the annual meetings. First, you should realize, if you don't already, that this is your elec* trie cooperative—your own private business enterprise. You’re not just a customer—you’re a part owner. That means that you are entitled to have your say-so in its operation, just as much as you have in the operation of your own farm or any other business you own. As a matter of fact, your voice in the running of this system is more than a right—it's actually an obli gation on your part. If this system is to be run intelligently and effi ciently, its policies must be the result of the thinking of all its members. And that thinking is expressed by the way you and your neighbors vote at your annual meetings. The annual meeting is your oppor tunity to check up on how your sys tem is operating, get the facts on its financial status, and learn what problems it may have to face in the coming year. The annual meeting is also your opportunity to vote on issues and proposals that will direct ly affect you and all the other mem bers of the cooperative. And it is your opportunity to elect to office those directors whom you think will guide the co-op along the lines that you want. The welfare of your rural electric system, and its continuing ability to give the best service at the lowest possible cost, depends on whether you take advantage of your opportu nities and fulfill your obligations at the annual meetings.
