FOX DRUG STORE
Purity of Drugs and Accuracy of
Prescriptions a Hobby with
L. G. Fox.

Members of the medical pro-
fession are quick to realize the
necessity of pure drugs and care
in compromising prescriptions,
for no matter how methodical a
doctor may be in the treatment
of his patients, he cannot sue
cessfully guide them back to
health if the remedies prescribed
are lacking in medicinal value.
This is one of the reasons why
Fox's Drug Store, of which L. G.
Fox is proprietor, has gained and
is maintaining a high STAN
dard in the community as phar-
macists. This store is known as
a house of accuracy, purity of
drugs, courteous treatment and
prompt service.
The stock is one of the most
varied and comprehensive to be
found in Southern North Carol
ina. In addition to drugs and
chemicals, a select line of toilet
articles is also handled, including
many of the nationally advertised
brands. Also, Portage auto tires.
A handsome sodafountain is an
attractive and popular feature of
the house. The prescription de-
partment is in charge of a regis
teredpharmaciSt insuring patrons
a service unexcelled. This model
store may be referred to as a

continuous career is indicative of crrte-
Gus treatment to patrons, keeping his
stock UP to the best possible advantage

STAR PICTURE THEATRE
Star Picture Theatre Pays Government
$3.50 in War Taxes Monthly.
Managed by W. G.
Atkinson.

One of the first things that impresses
itself upon the stranger or visitor to a
town in this day and time, is the charac-
ter of motion picture theatre maintained
and operated in the place.
In Rockingham no one can fail to be
attracted by the striking appearance of
the Star Theatre, denoting as it does
that it is the home of the towns popular
playhouse, where only the most enter
tanning pictures are to be seen.
The Star has won favor among thea
TRIGGERS by showing the highest-class
pictures in "fildom." In fact, there is
nothing worth witnessing that is not
staged" from night to night on the can
vas of this theatre. And no one need
ever be in doubt as to whether the pic
ture will be "just right" or not, and suit
able to be witnessed by the most prudish
attendant, for no picture is allowed in
the house that will in the least offend
the sensibilities of the most particular
observer.
Mr.. W. G. Atkinson, the popular man.
ager, is to be congratulated on maintain
ing such high-place of amusement in
the town, and the citizens of the county
who are regular visitors here should
show their appreciation of his efforts
to give them the best productions by
lending their support to his house. The
pictures to be seen here are entertaining
and instructive, and certainly no more
innocent pastime could be employed
than attending the Star. The Metro
Paramount, Select, Pathe, Bluebird and
other high-class productions are featured
together with the best series of news
service. You will always find your
friends at the Star. Something good or
the screen every night. The Star pay:
to the government, in war tax from $lS(
to 5000 monthly. So when you patronize
this taeatre'you are helping Uncle San
to lick the Kaiser.
