              The RoM Traveled By MilUons
j We admit th-at Ameriqa is not a perfect country- making
practice conform with, profession in every single instance. Npi
one ever claimed perfection for America. But we are correct-
when we maintain that the .principles of equal justice andi
equal rights are recognized American principles—and that
we have made,, and are making-, progress toward putting'
them into practice.
i-rip^e do not need to be reminded that some Americans disgrace our country by things they say and do. We know about
the vandals who desecrated numerous graves in. the Jewish
cemetaries of AValdheum, a suburb of Chicago. We also know
the clergymen, civic leaders'and businessmen of-the commun-.
ity were so outraged that .they joined forces for apprehending the deserators. We know that on July 25th theKu.Klux
K)an swore in some new members at Maryville, Tennessee,
which is near Knoxville—and that the Klan doesn't fulfill the
American ideals of equal justice and equal rights by its anti-
Catholic anti-Jewish, and anti-Negro program. At the same
time we know that a Knox County grand jury, citing laws
which bar "night-riding, intimidating, marauding", found
three Klansmen guilty of burning crosses in Knoxville, and
plans to continue its investigation of Klan activities. By no
means is the Klan having things..its own way. • -
But equally good news foj. America is the story of Jean.
Minis of Rentz, Georgia. Jean wrote the prize-winning essay
in a contest recenty held in Fitzgerald, ,Geoi;gia for high
school students of eleven neighboring counties in the
Southwestern rural area of the state. She .wrote,- "Over two
hundred years ago, a group qf 'foreigners' founded a country
on the belief that their ideals of justice and equality were
right. Because these people had faith in their ideals, America
today is the greatest and strongest nation in the world. Only
*^ip^e<^^.^cs^^^S-.^P--'^nS .^ these ideals, which -gggj
tl^^r$'^6(3^i5|jii--t^e life-of each true American, will we
-tin^te-itio :1&6^fie^g£e!sreHSL-"^^ Hugo- expresses
tl^^'The.^tizen free, .the nationaLgreat.' " She wrote,
lo^|r.a£>.>weIiv$4in,aiWorld where one's race or religion is a
cajuse jfpr.}}fite or gr^judice, w© have .work to do." She .wrote,
"Only-in America could .everyone, foreign-born or American-
born witE-the same ideals become one!"
A correspondent- who read Jean's essay saluted our public
school system and wrote, ''As long as our youngsters receive
such healthy instruction, we have little to-fear from the.per-,
verted thinking of the three K's (Klan, Kolumbians, and
Kommunists)."
Every one of us—in his own community, his church, his
business, his union—has yet plenty to do to keep America on
the sure course of her ideals. But, be sure about this—we are
on the .right road—in the good company of millions of true,
and loyal Americans.

Do We Take Boy Scouts for Granted?
This is .rather blunt. We hope, however, that you will take
it in the spirit intended,.
The Boy Scouts of.America will be 38 years p.d- on February 8th—a date to remember. The boys, their parents and
leaders will celebrate Boy Scout Week with them.
Will we?
If, as.so many of us-do, we take the Boy Scouts for. grant-

Gratitude to America
Some people have expressed-doubts as to whether the -people of,the war ravaged lands will have a sufficient feeling of.
gratitude to ,the-7&nited States, for the great amount of aid
given foi\.their;-di§tress.by our^country and its people.- Although the Americampeople acted generously following World
War I ,to..a£d the peoples, who.were suffering- after .that.conflict, it has been'noted thqt a .good many in Europe and elsewhere did not seem to appreciate that help, and they made
sour remarks.   .- . ;'
<£one cannot,-believe that any such lack of gratitude has,
been general, in.jEur.ope, or any country elsewhere that received this .gqqgi^is .help. ,it,seems probable that-most of the'
people thus aidecl j_new.„ where their, help came from, and that
there is in th^.minds of .the masses of those>countries.a.v:ery

country from which, help -came in their distress.

"Bushels of Food" Plan
The -nation's Boy Scouts are engaged in the program of saving
and producing'food to alleviate the
.world's-food shortage. As part of
their service - program this year
each' Boy Scout is expected to
'save a bushel, grow a bushel,
share a bushel" of food.
Each Cub Pack, - Boy Scout
Troop, Senior "Scout Unit, will
-share in "a "Report-to,the -Nation''
that "will tell." of their-community
■services'last, year and -their program-foj7this year. The report wiil
be m'ade..to-the-President of tha
United States,*.--to* Congress and to
the United Nation..
Prograiftrfor the-"Year
In addition to ' conserving .food
and natural resources, the - Boy
Scouts will emphasize safety .and
fire prevention, .home repairs and
personal health. ' Through their
World Friendship Fund of- voluntary gifts the Scouts" have sent
more:than 3,000 tons of supplies to
help "Scoutt."organizations: overseas
to rebuild; This aid is to be con-
tir.nedrtHrQughottt 1948. _
Scouting-' is having a rebirth in
many .of, the countries ravaged by
the -ttrarJ-The Boy Scouts International iBiireau in London reports a
world -membership of 4,409,780
boys Snd. leaders in 42 nations.
World .peace and mutual -understanding is an abjective of Scouting. Through World Scout Jamborees and the resultant .expanding
interest in friendships, understanding and 'personal relationships
thiough correspondence these aims
•rue increasingly - being met. The
Sixth World. Jam.bores last summer brought 30,000 Boy Scouts and
leaders together in France from 38

Each Scout and -Leader will'
"save a bushel",-by .eating-.grain
substitutes. More. potatoas,..vrege-
tables, fruit-and other perishable
foods will be. consumed at Scout
camps and less bread and irjeat.
Rural Scouts can help by.destroying rodents who each.year cause;
the loss of 5 per .cent of stored
grain or they can aid' by feeding
livestock more "hay; table and garden* leavings and .other grain- feed
substitutes. •  '
Every Scout'andieader with-ac-
cess to a piece of land, is .encouraged to "grow an extra bushel" or,

February'8, the actual anniversary date of the, .Original incbrpora
About 100 guests .including
Trustees, staff and-friends of the
i^orth Canton Public" - 'Library,
.gathered at-the Community 'Building, Friday evening, January .30th
to celebrate the twentieth anniversary ,of the Library.
Mr. W. H. Leed started the pro-
■-.eram with a few .words of .welcome and a brief statement about
the building program which he
saia would be-jin as soon as building con'ditiqns were ljettfir. Following his brief introduction, Mrs. Ri-
.chard Cochran presented three vocal solos.
Mrs. Beth Shorb and. Mrs. Harley   Myers   briefly    sketched   the
.library ahd its contributions to the
-.North Canton    Community.    Mrs.
Shorb recalled the planning attendant upon the organization plans
of the institution stressing the role
of community organizations, especially the Woman's Club, the ,Wo-
. men office employes of the Hoover
•Company,  and the school children
in making possible a growing public library.
The .guest .speaker, .Mr. -JPqrter
Welch of Massillon, outlined, the
literary world of the time of the
.ppening of this library, including
in 'his" outline, "mechanical, 'aeron-'
autical, and inventional progress
which was made at the same time.
He noted, for instance, that the
talking movies date to that time
though it seems that much more
time has elapsed since that epoch
leaking event.
'In talking of today's literature,
he remarked that some modern aia-
thors are'.udged as immoral, indecent and radical in their views, yet
that attitude was subject to change
as the years ;go by. much the same
as the ' "attitude 'to writers like
Dickens and. Hardy has. undergone
a'change since'they (wrote. They
too were • once' considered, .quite
rgdical in their views and writings
Briefly he mentioned the infiuenca
of book clubs upon the "reading of
the American public, .stressing .the
fact that q book club could not pos- <
sibly satisfy the reading tastes of
thousands of people with the same
book selection for the .month.- :In
conclusion he talked .briefly about
the joys of book collecting.

On January 11, snow started to
fall at 2, a. m. and Within an hour
it jwas deep enough to send the
road crews intQ action. Slippery
places developed, causing traffie
difficulty. By 8 a.m., the snow had
reached a depth of 2.% inches and
was turning'into .a .drizzle. A cold
waye, whipped .along by-a.tvifid upwards of 25 piles an jipu'r, was
bearir^g* down from ^he north central "states, and brought zero temperatures in its wake. Industry's
use of .gas was cut to 50 percent
for the first time this season due
to the.-prolonged cold wave. Winter's grip chilled most of the country and threatened grave--damage
in Florida, .where freezing-weather
arrived at the peak of - the-citrus
fruit harvest. The -threat to the
fruit growers v^as aggravated because of a lack of oil .with which
to operate smudge .pots. Most
schools in Florida were closed due
to the cold weather as rnost ,of
them have no central heating systems.

A ten inch snowfall tied up this

automobiles had to be left, by their
drivers. Deep drifts .added to the
traffic problems. Snow fences
which had been placed on the side
of the roads from which prevailing
winter winds came were of no use

from the unprotected direction,
causing huge drifts - across main

being recorded within the period
