SOUTHERN OREGON MINER
New Station Is $10,600 Investine
♦---------------------------------- —------------------------------------------------------------
SHELL UNIT IS [ About People You Know!
FIRST OF TYPE
IN ALL OREGON
A SHLAND S newest business
improvement, a new and ultra­
modern service station, will be
" opened for business Saturday, May
20, with Lou Rogers as manager,
assisted by Bud Gandee and Carl
Harris. The station represents a
total investment of about >10,000
on the part of J. D. Mars, local
business man, owner of the lots
at the corner of East Main street
and Siskiyou boulevard where the
new building has just been com­
pleted.
Under 10-year lease to the Shell
Oil company, the station will re­
place the one operated at the cor­
ner of East Main and Second
streets now by Rogers, and will
bring the newest in facilities and
equipment to this city.
The new station, of modem
lines and compact arrangement,
includes a full concrete apron and
yard, grease room with new safety
type hoist, office, rest rooms and
computing pump island. The sta­
tion occupies a corner vacant for
several years, and fills out the
business picture of this section.
The concrete station was erect­
ed by the Teller Construction com- I
pany of Portland, which hired all
local labor and employed local sub­
contractors for the job, with all
materials being purchased locally
except structural steel.
