Sam Boardman became a resident engineer of the State Highway department on New Year's day, 1919. He became park superintendent in 1929. He was 75 years of age in December, 1949. He was retired July 1, under the new retirement rule. He says he is "going fishing" and that he "knows all the good holes where the big fish are." He ought to for he is the father of the far flung system of state parks which has built up under his loving care since the commission com menced to build that system away back In 1925. ' But those who are given to guess ing have the idea that his vacation will be something like the post- ' man's; he will continue to walk around the parks department and its parks, handy where he can be consulted by his official successor, for some little time yet to come. The park system was born in the early days of the Columbia high way construction when Simon Ben son donated to the state the tract of land now named Benson park, at Multnomah falls. From that start it grew rapidly by gift and pur chase and in a few instances by condemnation until now practically every section of the state has its park or wayside area set aside and preserved for the use and en joyment of the citizens of Oregon and the visitors who travel the highways of the stale. The legislature of 1925 set aside a percentage of the highway rev enues for the purchase, develop ment maintenance of the high way park system. By the end of 1928 the state had acquired 98 park sites scattered along the highway system of the state; -5 of them be ing outright gifts by public spirit ed owners and a total of approxi mately (109 000 had been spent in purchase and development. From the time of his appointment as state parks superintendent by the Highway commission in 1929, Sam Boardman has been gathering the highway parks under the own- MODEST MAIDENS TradMurk JUfifUrH U I Mnl OAn i , II, HI - "But we've already eloped we're just surprising her family by coming backto live with them!"

Only 25,482 signers are needed to place the measure on the No vember ballot. Lee C. Swafford, Portland, of the Legion, and Norman R. Howard, Portland of the VFW, who filed the petitions noted that "the signa tures were obtained in every com munity in Oregon and are not the result of a high pressure campaign in the Portland area only." They asserted that the number of sign ers would swell to 50,000 by the time the final count is made. The bonus plan would be financed by sale of $3,000,000 in 20-year bonds. Under the plan each veteran ser ving over 90 days between Sept. 16, 1940 and June 30, 1946 would re ceive $10 for each month served in the U.S., and $15 for each month overseas, with a maximum of $600.
