Eugene Would Use
Boulevard Plan

An appreciated compliment for
Ashlands Magnolia Boulevard is in
cluded in the following clipping from
an Eugene paper:
City Engineer Forneri is drawing
plans for paving on Twelfth avenue
east, between Oak and Kincaid
streets, showing strip of parking
ten feet wide in the center of the
street, with paving sixteen feet wide
on each side.
This plan has been suggested to
the engineer by residents of that av-
enue who are desirous of having it
paved this year. A petition is now
being circulated asking the council to
order the improvement.
This plan was followed out by
the city of Ashland when a wide boul-
evard in that city was paved. This is
conceded by tourists to be one of the
most beautiful streets in Oregon. The
parking in the center of the boulevard
is beautified and kept up by the CITY,"

CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Here are some of the sayings of
Bruce Evans at Junction City:
The trouble with the average
stage is, if you took the legs off it
would have nothing to stand on"
1T is easy for you old men who
have to rub your knees with goose
grease before you get out of bed in
the morning to talk against dancing
but you smoke an old pipe all day!
There is no difference in the principle
of the thing"
You can't dance with the devil
and walk with the Lord at the same
time"
There are good books and bad
books-there are good shows and bad
ones. You must use your brains in
deciding when to CO."
Evangelist Evans comes to the Bap-
tist church on the evening of May 8.

car to the purchaser thereof. This
new requirement is effective May 90.
On and after that date the secretary
of state cannot honor requests for the
transfer of number plates from one
car to another, where new cars have
been purchased and it is the desire of
the owner to have the plates trans
ferred to such new car for any reason
whatever.
The law makes no exceptions
whatever and provides in addition
that no sale or transfer of any motor
vehicle registered Hereunder shall be
valid without complying with such
requirement. This requirement reads
Upon the purchase of a motor vehi-
Gle registered in accordance with this
act, the title of the number plate
shall vest in the vendee and said ven
dee shall, within five days after the
date of such purchase, notify the sec
retary of state, stating his name and
business address, the name of the
vendor and the license or registration
number under which such motor vehi-
Gle is registered"
A fee of 81 is also provided to be
paid to the secretary of state for not
ing such transfer upon the registra-
tion of index books of his office.
The law was also changed so as to
provide that on and after May %
applications for registration shall be
signed only by the owner of the motor
vehicle. Heretofore the law required
that the application should be sworn
to, but as this requirement entailed
considerable inconvenience and ex
pense upon owners OF cars residing
in remote sections of the state, it was
dispensed with, so that registration!
of all motor vehicles might be made
with due regard for the convenience
of those living where. it is not Away
easy to obtain the services of some
person authorized to administer oath
under the law.

FOrbidS Transfer
Of Auto License

More than million dollars was
spent by the people of Oregon during
the first three months of 1915 in
the purchase of automobiles and
other classes of motor driven We
hicles. This is taken as one of the
best indications that prosperous
times exist in this state, and that
business conditions are recovering
from the shock administered at the
outbreak of the war in Europe.
Records compiled in the office of
Ben Olcott, secretary of state, show
that people have been buying auto
mobiles at an average rate of more
than eleven day since January l.,
the increase being approximately
a thousand. This does not include
the large number of motorcycles
which have been purchased. A con-
servative estimate of the average
cost of each automobile purchased
is $1,000, which shows that at least
a million dollars has been invested
during the first quarter of 1915 in
new automobiles.
At this time there are approx
mately 1900 automobiles, more
than 2,400 motorcycles and over
$500 chauffeurs registered in Ore
gon. During the entire twelve
months last year only 16,347 auto
mobiles, 1888 motorcycles and about
1900 chauffeurs were registered. At
the same rate OF increase as was
shown last year, the secretary OF
states office says that the automo-
bile registrations in the state will
approximate between 21,OOO and
$4,000.
On May % the new motor vehicle
law will go into effect. At the last
legislature the law providing for the
registration of automobiles was
amended, so as to provide that the
license plate assigned to any motor
vehicle by the secretary of state upon
the original application for registra
tion for any year shall remain with
the car for the year covered by the
certificate of registration.
Heretofore the law provided thai
a number plate could be transferred
from one car to another car owned
by the individual under which the ap
plication for the original registration
was made. On account of the fac
that many owners Of motor vehicles
fail to report the transfer of license
plates from one car to another, thu
law was amended as stated above.
Under the present requirement
when any motor vehicle is sold. it il
made the duty of the purchaser t
report such purchase to the secretar,
of state and the vendor is required t,
transfer the number plates with tn

gave him a brief trial, decided he was
