The extra lacing iu the back from the waist-line down permits an
absolutely perfect adjustment over the back and assists further iu

Creswell Drama a Success.
Making Ready for New Brick.
A very humorous comedy (Yai^iq
“ A Family A ffa ir" was givin at
Creswell last Friday evening by
local talent for the benefit of the
Creswell baud.
The characters
were all very ably sustained and
the play was well attended, every
body being more than pleased with
the presentation. Among those in
in the cast receiving special men­
tion were Win McDaniel, as the
Swede, and A. Howe, in the role
of the deacon, while they were ably
sustained by the rest of the Com­
pany. An effort is being put forth
to induce the Creswell young peo­
ple to present their drama in the
Armory theater at this place, in
which event they are certainly as­
sured a good crowd, owing to the
splendid satisfaction they gave at
Creswell. If they decide to come
to Cottage Grove they will be ac­
companied by the Creswell band.
