W in sto n S m it h OPTOM ETRIST o TURNING JUNIPERS INTO DOLLARS A BUILDING OREGON TOGETHER In 1930. Vearl and Elsie Lehrman of Bend began making novelties from Central Oregon’s juniper trees. \ \ ith a g ift lathe, powered by their washing machine motor, Lehrman turned out colorfully-grained items of his own design. Today their Western Juniper Novelty Co. is in a new building, w ith living quarters, modern shop and display room. They have mastered the individual istic wood, learned the public's sou venir tastes and developed far-flung sales outlets. "Ours is a product t)pical of Oregon which First National helped us devel op," Lehrman says. In all parts of Oregon people arc working to better themselves- and in the process keep our state growing. We introduce some of them here. In each case they’ve made effective use of the constructive servtces of our First National Group banking offices. We believe that by helping individuals toward prosperity, we help build Oregon — anuly by family, farm bv farm, business by business. W hether vour financial needs are large or small, come in and talk over vour situation with us.— Let's Build Oregon Together."

Business grew slowly, but today Shaw must hire assistants to help meet demands for bikes, tandems, tricycles and baby strollers. Shaw active Seaside Chamber of Commerce official, also finds time to operate his large "Prom” apart ment building.
