Z llOOD RIVER GLACIER, TflüKBDAY, MARCH 18, 1924 MAYER PARK IS DONATED TO STATE Convinced that highway advertising signs detract from the natural beauty of the great routes of travel of the Pacific Coast, this Company has de/ « cided that it will erect no more such signs and that it will immediately re/ move all of its signs of this nature now standing. Hereafter the Company will confine its use of signs to com/ mereiai locations. The Company feels that the splendid scenery so characteristic of nearly all of the highways of California, Ore/ gon, Washington, Nevada & Arizona should be unmarred, and on that ao count is willing to sacrifice the advert rising value of the signs. s'..
