    1. the labeling is correct,
      S waves are transverse wave in which motion of particle is perpendicular to the direction of propagation,
      Therefore, the shearing force, for the direction of propagation shown in the figure, will act in the same direction (up and down) and therefore particle displacement will be up and down.
