Serial story of the boy next door
It's Don's story. But the name could
just as well be Walt or Jim or Bob
or any other.
And, of course, the fifth entry in
the little address book really hasn't
been written yet. But it trill be
and we hope to have a hand in mak
ing it come true.
When Don and millions like him
went to war, they were given the best
weapons and equipment in the
world. Equipment turned out fast
by machines that were turned by
plentiful, low-priced electric power.
When these boys come home
again, electric power will be ready
in even greater abundance to serve
new industries and create new op
portunities. For power makes pro
ductionand production make jobs.
The electric light and power com
panies are prepared for peace as
they were for war thanks to fore
sight, planning and sound business
management.
They're keeping rates low as costs
rise. And they're supplying well
over 80 of America's electric ser
vice the best, as well as the most,
that any nation enjoys.

War is a long way from North Carolina
but in so many ways it's mighty close
to us. Our men are fighting all over the
world our factories and farms are
producing an endless stream of supplies
our troops depend upon. But even that
isn't all it wouldn't be enough!
We have so much more to do right
here in North Carolina jobs that are
up to all of us, jobs that must be well
done. In the 4th War Bond Drive, for
instance, North Carolinians bought
$172,000,000 worth 37 above our
quota but we're keeping right on buy
ing more and morel We've gladly given
our money to the Red Cross and hun
dreds of thousands of hours of our time
to making surgical dressings and kits for
our men overseas.
We've supported and worked for the
U.S.O. and various war relief groups.
We've built and maintained an efficient
Civilian Defense organization. We've

The men and women of the Greyhound
Lines, like their fellow-citizens of North
Carolina, have shared in all of these,
activities. They've also shared in the.
