A GOOD CITIZEN
A irood citizen is one who supports his
Government in trying times like these now
confronting us. and who does it without
reservation.
The Southern Paeltlc Lines are endeav-
oring to do their share, and to maintain
their obligations to the Government and
to the people with justice to both.
We want the co-operations of our pat-
rons in increasing the efficiency of our
service in every direction, for only by co-
ordinatinif our efforts and by a sympathetic
support of men and measures can Ameri-
can institutions succeed and the American
Hag typify a freedom, in support of which
we are now preparing to send our youth to
the tiring line in Belgium or France.
