Scenic Stickers to
Advertise Oregon
A beautiful, natural-color photo
graph of an Oregon beach scene, will
be presented every non-resident
motorist who registers his car in this
state during the year 1940, it was
revealed today.
Earl Snell, secretary of state, an
nounced that the 1940 non-resident
permits, which are in the form of
stickers to be placed on the wind
shields of out-of-state cars, would
feature the actual color photograph
of a scene at one of Oregon's many
beaches, showing two girls on horse
back and another girl on a bicycle.
The picture, Snell said, illustrates
the spacious quality of Oregon bea
ches where there is abundant room
for riding, swimming, lolling in the
sand or surf fishing.
In the past the non-resident per
mits have featured drawings or in
some instances there has been mere
ly the words, "Oregon," together
with the year and the designation
as an out-of-state visitor. This
vear's permits have the word "Ore
gon" in modern printing across the
toD of the picture, with the inscrip
tion "Guest, 1940" in smaller letters
on the left side of the sticker.
This is planned as the first of a
series of non-resident permits each
showinir some typical Oregon scene
in natural colors. It is believed
these stickers will be distinctive to
Oregon and will serve to advertise
the vacation advantages of the state
in other parts of the country.

A new peace time record for re
cruiting was established in the Ar

ing to an announcement released

1839 enlistments during the month
of which 1086 were original enlist
