BE SERIES OF PICTURES
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30. Arrange
ments have been made by Postmaster
General Hitchcock for the engraving
and manufacturing of a series of
twelve stamps, unique in size and
novel in design, for exclusive use in

ed by Congress ordinary -Stampr can

ion with stamps now in use.
The new issue will be in three ser
ies of designs. The first will illus
trate modern methods of transport
ing mail, one stamp showing a mail
car on a railway train, another . an
ocean mail steamship, a third an au
tomobile now used in the postal ser
vice, and a fourth the dispatch of
mail by aeroplane.
The second series will show at
work the four great classes of postal
employes,1 postofnce clerks, railway
clerks, city letter carriers and rural
delivery carriers. The third series
will represent four industrial scenes,
showing the principal sources of the
products that probably will be trans
ported extensively by parcels post.
The stamps will be ready for dis
tribution December 1.

sity of Oregon a. written pledge to
the effect that he or she will endeave
or to repay the state of Oregon the
money expended upon his or her edu

much money, but to make an- effort
to( repay in good citizenship. The
graduates will be expected to go from
this institution with an obligation to
the state in their hearts and work in
the! effort to make Oregon a better
state. The plan has been worked ont
