A Doodle that became famous Some important things "just happen I" For example, long ago a Southern Rail way man had a free moment, a pencil, and a piece of paper. ' His wandering pencil developed our symbol, "The ' Southern Serves the South." To Southerners it's the sign of an efficient, econom ical transportation system . . . whose 8,000 miles of 'lines qre the sinews and muscles of our fast-growing Southland. To our .43,000 employee* lt'a the sign of a good , place to work . . . where a man can take pride in the job he's doing. To Southern businessmen it's the sign of a steady customer with a giant shopping list . . . who buys often. ?V To communities all over the South it's the sign of a friendly railway ... a neighbor, a taxpayer and a "good citizen." From its casual birth on a scrap of paper, this "doodle" has grown to mean many things to many people ... all across America. ' Prtatdrat SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM (?)>
