Mr. Rochelle, who has been run
ning a studio in South Asheboro for
some time, has decided to close u p

very clever gentleman and a good
citizen. He will remain until the
first of April, for the purpose of
finishing all work on band and for
the accommodation, of those want
ing work between now and that time
Mr. Arthur Ross said, when asked
by a Courier representative if he fa
vored bond issu for good roads, "I
want good roads so the saw mills can
get their lumber hauled cheaper and
the farmers can haul larger loads
and get-more for thtir day's work.
It is true that there cannot be many
miles built with the bends to be is
sued, but there must be a beginning.
When, I was a small boy I heard the
same argument used against good
roads in Alamance county. There
at first only a few miles were built
out from Graham, but it was only
a few years until the good roads ex
tended to other parts of "ihe county.
Coming men and women will rise up
and call us blessed for our action
if we act wisely. Every man who
does not vote for bonds will be in
my opinion .using his influence
against the best interests i f the com.
ui unity. There is no middle ground
on this question. There is no stand
still place.'' j

Washington's Birthday Celebration.
Editor Courier: On the night of
the 22nd of February it was the
writers' pleasure to be at Level
Cross and listen to the speeches and
dialogues recited by the school in
honor of our beloved Washington,
Mr. Smith, our splendid teachtr at
this place, only decided three or four
days previous to this date that he
would celebrate the birth of Wash
ington in this way. The pupils all
did credit to themselves and teacher
which showed a spirit of aptness on
the part of both teacher and pupils
to get up po nice a program on so
short a notice. Miss Lona Adams
and brother and Mrs. McDaniel gave
us some splendid music which added
much to the enjoyment of all pres
ent. We are all looking forward
with bright hopes to the day when
our exhibition comes off, about the
first of April, at which date we shall
expect the editor of the Courier to be
on hand and make a speech on any
thing he may see fit to talk about..
