 Many Students Coming
 Advices received from Alabama are to the effect that many students from that state will attend the students training camp camp to be conducted in Asheville in July, under the auspices of the war department.
 Dr. George H. Denny. president of the University of Alabama, who is a member of the national reserve corps of the United States, having charge, in way of the students military training camps.

 The Asheville camp will be for stu dents from colleges, universities and like institutions in all of the southern states; in fact, in all of that territory located east of the Mississippi and south of the Potomac rivers. It Is quite likely that Dr. Denny and other col lege heads will visit the military train- ing camp here during its progress
 Would Reach Birmingham
 That a public highway from Bir- mingham to the Land of the Sky'' would be entirely feasible. and would prove of great value, is the opinion expressed by H. Leonard McCombs, a good roads enthusiast, who lives in Richmond, but spends much of his time in Birning- ham.
 Mir. McCombs was at a local hotel during the past week. He says that such a public highway. built by the states of Alabama, Tennessee and North Carolina, with federal aid. would bring thousands of additional tourists to the mountains of western North Carolina in the summer and to Ala bama in the winter, in addition to greatly building up the territory it would traverse.
 Local good roads associations may investigate.

years and are very popularity known
here. The father was associated in
editorial work on the Nashville Ten
