Griel, president of the Montgomery Chamber of Commerce pledged the support of his organization to the farm campaign in the southern end of the state.

Creatore's Band

Two great concerts are promised the people of Birmingham Friday. matinee and night, when the noted band conduc- tor. Giuseppe Creatore, will give the nlu- sic loving people of this community musical treat. This organization has re- ceived the highest praise in~ this coun- try as well in Europe. The London Daily Express says: "Giuseppe Crea- tore, who last night made his London debut at the Queens Hall, has magnetic control over his splendid band of 60 per- formers. To the spectator the irresisti- ble impression is that they are perform ing involuntarily, entirely at the will of their fiery, volatile conductor. The result is an incomparably fine piece of orchestration, forming the most complete possible tribute to the powers of sympa- thetic' response by the wizardy of this musicians intense temperament"

Raymond Hitchcock

At the Jefferson theatre today matinee and night, Conan & Harris will pre- sent everybody's favorite laugh merchant, Raymond Hitchcock. in .The Beauty Shop" Doesn't the mere thought of sur rounding Hitchcock with a play bearing this alluring title prepare one for laugh ter? "The Beauty shop is musical comedy in three acts, written especially for Mir Hitchcock by Charming Pollock and Rennold Wolf with a tuneful and pleasing musical score by Charles J. Ge- best. According to the report of New York reviewers they have been most suc- cessful in supplying bright lines, blithe dances, excruciatingly funny situations and many melodious tunes, the whole making a procession of color and glitter through which Hitchcock babbles glibly with his irresistably humoresque, his in imitable Yankee touch of lingo and unique haberdashery, immaculate and character istic as we have always seen him. Hitch- cock appears in the character of Dr. Arbustus Budd. He is suddenly called to Corsica, where he hopes to collect for tune that the deceased uncle of his ward is supposed to have left her. Arriving
 
 in the land of intrigue he finds that instead of a fortune his ward has in herited vendetta. so peppery and vol canic, that 1t threatens to destroy them. In his dilemma Hitchcock hits upon a plan. He will marry the daughter of a vendetta rival and end the feud. The lady of his choice is amorous, but ugly. But not so ugly to defy the skill of Dr. Arbutus Budd. and he accordingly makes her over, only to find that she is already engaged to one of her clan. who immediately claims her hand. or if not that. Dr. Budd's head. Everything is straightened out eventually, but in the meantime Hitchcock's assumption of ab- l ject terror. his mock solemnity and in | gratiating drawl. and his relish for his | own fun keeps the audience in roars of laughter continuously from act to act.

Your correspondent went down the
Columbia highway as far as Wyeth the
last of the week, thinking we. would
find quiet place to rest for few
days and forget our troubles. But we
missed it. When we arrived in Wyeth
we found that the large timber pre-
serving plant which the railroad com-
pany owns there had closed down and
about 100 men had been thrown out of
work that day. So things were not
very quiet there. Sunday we took a
stroll up the highway past Shell Rock.
Camp Benson and Lindsayfcreek. Near
the last named place we found the
Dalles City boat tied up in little cove
and up in grove just across the high
way was a large platform, and as it
was an excursion of the iiremen and
their friends from Wascos metropolis,
and as they were all pretty well filled
up with lemonade, soda pop and sc
forth, things were not very quiet here.
So about three O'Clock we hiked up the
track to Lindsay, tagged the local and
returned to Wyeth. We looked over
quite lot of this county's part of the
highway, and as far as we saw and are
able to Judge, il is good piece CT
work. The road around Shell Rock is
finished, and is fine piece of road
