Compliment to Cron
Hotel aad Newspaper :
A good hotel is n wonderful
advertising asset to any city—
and Cottage drove is thus fortu­
nately endowed. Those who eame
here to take part in the reeent
Chautauqua took occasion to com­
pliment The Oregon, at which
they stopped.
Cartoonist Ash
Davis even went so far as to
make the statement public. Next
to a live newspaper a good hotel
is probably the most important
thing in a city that depends for 1
its growth upon the appeal it
makes to outsiders.
Cottage
drove attracts considerable atten­
tion from both these sources. The
cbautsuqus entertainers took par­
ticular pains to compliment Cot- ‘
tage d r o v e ’s live wire newspaper. •
A real ball game was that played
between Roeeburg and Cottnge drove
on the borne grounds Friday resulting
in a score o f 1 to 0 in favor o f the home
