ADVERTISING
SIGNS WILL GO
FROM HIGHWAYS

That the advertising sign at the
side Of the road may prove a detri-
ment to the thing advertised instead
OF promoting sales. is being more
and more recognized by large users
of billboard space. 1t is being
brought home to advertisers that
road users holly resent the blatant
sign covering up a beautiful vista or
profaning a lovely landscape.
Cooperation in sign removal has
had unexpected impetus from. the
Standard Oil Company on the Pa
cific coast. which has decided to
eliminate certain Objectionable signs
from the highways.
Convinced That highway advertis-
ing signs detract from the natural
beauty of the great routes of travel
of the Pacific coast says an official
Of Standard Or this company has
decided that it will erect no more
such signs and that it will immedi-
ately remove all of its signs OF this
nature nov standing. Hereafter the
company will confine the use of signs
to commercial locations. This com
pany was among the first Of the oil
concerns to engage in this form of
advertising and is now glad to be
the first to discontinue it."
