THE COURIER Asheboro, N. C, June 24, 1915. WEEKLY WEATHER FORECAST Following is the weekly weather forecast issued by the U. S. Weather Bureau, Washington, D. C, for the week beginning Wednesday June 23: For South Atlantic and East Gulf States: Fair weather with continued liigh temperature is probable through out the week. LOCAL AND PERSONAL The Courier is particularly anxious for correspondents to write their opin ions on current questions. Mrs. W. J. Scarboro and daughter, Miss Lucile, were in Greensboro for .a few hours last Saturday. When anything in your community occurs which is of interest The Cou rier would be glad if you would write or call over the 'phone and let The Courier know the item of news. The list of subscribers to The Cou vxier is growing daily, yes, everyday. Trom every section subscribers and Ifriends of the paper say kind words fcout its news, local and editorial columns, and advertisers say it brings results. A plan is on foot to start a first class department store in Asheboro within the next few months. The management expects to start out with an appropriation of from $500 to $1,000 for newspaper advertising the first year. Asheboro should be and can become a trading center. This can be done by live energetic Ren. who will give proper publicity to the words .offtr for sale, i Dr. J. F. Miller, who came from 'South Carolina, in February of this 'year, and located at Asheboro to practice fcaedicine, secured his license to practice medicine at the recent ex :anunation of the State Medical SBoard of Examiners. While Dr. Mil ler's license was granted by reciproci ty as were also the license of several other applicants coming from other States, some applicants from other .'States did not secure license. The .-.shoving of Dr. Miller in the way of -testimonials was most creditable both as to scholarship and equipment, he laving received his medical education in schools both in this country and abroad, Dr. Alexander C. Bulla, who re cently graduated at a medical college dn Richmond, Va., with first honors, was a successful applicant at the re cent examination of applicants to practice medicine. Dr. Bulla is a son of Dr. A. M. Bulla and a grandson of the late Dr. Archibald Bulla, a well Tcnown physician of this county. He is named after the late Dr. Alevander Bulla, his great uncle, born and rear- ea in itanaoipn, dui who lor many years lived and had a large practice at Jackson Hill in Davidson county. It will be noticed on the Chautau qua programs which are being circu lated over town that there is a note saying that reserved seats will be a dollar extra. These programs were printed some time ago, and it has . since then been decided not to have -any reserved seats at Asheboro; and the $2.00 season ticket entitles you to . soy seat.

Miss Fleta Brown, of Route 1, re cently spent several days in Raleigh, visiting her sister, Mrs. Buffalo. In some parts of Asheboro children are allowed to play in the streets, and owing to the number of automobiles traveling at this time, the street is a very unsafe place for children. . This advice to parents is prompted by the fact that a small child in the city re cently had a narrow escape from death under a car. Even if all driv ers exercised the utmost care, the street would not be a safe place for children to play, and Asheboro, like all other towns, has some reckless au tomobilists. Keep your children off the streets for your own sake and the sake of the automobilist. There is no scarcity of fresh veget ables in Asheboro. Last week, a lo cal merchant, on being asked the price of beans, replied, "If you let me sell you the meat to cook with them, III give you the beans."

A lady stopped at the of fice one day recently and said, "I just want to tell you that you are getting out the best Courier now that I have ever seen, and I always like to get hold of the paper."
