New Bank To Give Away Real Cash
Frl., Jon. 6, 1961 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ore. 7"
Who said a bank never gives
away money?
A key in fact, a very special
key will be the instrument
which will disprove this claim at
the Saturday grand opening cere
monies of U. S. National Bank's
new Roseburg branch building.
This entire event evolves around
a treasure chest a chest which
will be located in the new bank
budding and one which will be
just waiting for those who po
sess these special, or "opening"
keys. Those who open the chest
will find a generous assortment of
coins inside and, at this time, will
be asked to reach in and lift out
all the money they can hold in
one hand.
Keys Mailed Out
Just one stipulation. Please, no
baseball gloves allowed!
This week, treasure chest mail
ers were sent to residents of the
High Court Ruling
Favors Power Co.
SALEM (AP) - The Oregon Su
preme Court today ruled that
California Oregon Power Co. does
not have to pay the state for fight
ing a fire that started on land
owned by the company.
The decision affirmed Circuit
Judge Orval J. Millard of Jackson
County, who denied the state $40,
682. The 1955 fire started when a
tree was blown across a power
company line.
The downed line ignited debris
and brush, resulting in 4.200 acres
of land being burned over.
The law requires that the land
owner must use every effort to
extinguish fires, and liability is
imposed for failure to do so.
I ine supreme Court found that
; the power company's interest was
umy uiai oi an easement, so it
really was not a land owner un
der the law.

plant, a lumber mill, feed and
seed mill, and a brick and tile
plant.

its installation in U. S. National
Bank's new Roseburg branch
building.
Reputed to be the Northwest's
largest continuous photo mural, it
is 12 feet high, 40 feet long, and
will be hung on the south wall of
the new branch building. A com
posite of several actual photo
graphs, it is appropriately lilies,
"Timber Giants."
Claude Palmer, head of the
Photo-Art company, and a special
ist in this relatively new decorat

the mural is completed possibly
tomorrow more than 300 man
hours of labor and skill will have
gone into its production. This is
exclusive of the many hours of ex
tensive research involved in se
lecting and photographing the tim
ber scene.
Fifteen individual strips make
up the total composition. The strips
will be cemented to masonite which
is fastened to wall studs. A special
mural photographic paper is used
for reproduction and, as the final
step in its production, the mura
is lacquered with preserving chem
