T. Lane at Centerville, South Dakota, is an example. When tbis 31-year service man isn't selling tickets, or arranging for the shipment of grain or lire stock, he's doing any one of dozen other jobs.

Agent Lane's thoughts, when not on his work, are occupied with something even closer to his heart--his four boys wearing the fighting uniforms of Uncle Sam. Alan, now in Sicily, went through the North African campaign. Claire's in the Air Corps and at present is an instructor at Chanute Field. Leo, who for three years was a "North Western" telegraph operator, is in the Naval Air Force somewhere in the Pacific. Maurice is in training at Camp Kohler, California.

Lane's working philosophy is a wholesome one. Realizing he is an essential unit in America's rail transportation, he's determined to make every working moment count in the Fight for Freedom. Even though miles from the fighting front, he realizes his efforts, plus those of every other railroad worker, count tremendously in the part transportation is playing in winning the war. So to members of ''North Western's" family and to all other patriotic railroaders we say--you're doing a great job-CARRY ON!.
