PUBLIC HEALTH IS GOOD A writer for The Sun meeting- Mayor Logan W. Becher in the city hall asked him for a few expressions covering Thanksgiving day. "Get your pencil ready," saicl the Mayor, "and I'll dictate a few." I am thankful because I live in North Canton, the best town of its size in the world. I am thankful because we have the Community Building, four fine churches, good schools, good police officers, good water, good fire department, good citizens, and a good newspaper-. Because the public health is good, with no plagues or epidemics to cause public alarm and danger. Beacuse such dread scourges as tuberculosis are on the decline in Stark county, and particularly because that killer of babies, diphtheria, is rapidly being annihiliated through the discoveries of science backed by the force of public opinion. Because the schools are fuller of little children than they ever have ' been before and their safety on the , public highways is a matter of con- -. cern to all citizens. Because hatred and intolerance are giving way to the broader and saner notion that the true doctrine for this ■ land of so many diverse races and creeds is the gospel of good will and forbearance. Because the bootlegger knows that North Canton is a town to keep away from. Because the public conscience has been awakened to the peril of organized crime. Because all the officials in North Canton are pulling together to make this a better town. Because our program of safety first is going/along nicely and the people are giving it real support. Because the elections are over and the ^people qan get down to the simple business of living, undisturbed by the clamor of politics.

"My Master Singer today is John McCormack who has earned his title gallantly and who carried it proudly and with honor," writes Walter Kramer, the well-known composer and musical authority, in discussing the world-famous tenor who will be heard on Tuesday evening, November 29, at the City Auditorium, Canton, in his last Ohio appearance of the season. "There is no one in today's singing world whose brow more richly deserves the laurel," he continues. "For John McCormack has attained to the loftiest peak of. his art—that altitude where few have the power to withstand, the dizzy height, that domain' where only the elite reign in undisputed glory, those few whose message has an appeal to all, high.and.low of bro.w, rich ind poor in musi.cal knowledge, in short, musician.and layman alike. ■'"'•-.- "John McCormack has put to his credit—and . he's a young man yet, .only 42 years of a.gep-the biggest single contribution 'td'vocai'iirti.of any artist I know." He has learned.how to sing a song, no matter what the song, sgT'thaif'ybu can understand, every word in any language he happens to Se singing, every emotion, every single shade of expression. That's why I call him a Master Singer." ■ Many music lovers from this district are expected to attend the McCormack concert in Canton, where tickets are available at $1.10 to 53.30 scaling of prices, at the Geo. C. Wille & Co., 410 N. Market Ave., Canton. JUNIOR CLASS Had Oyster Supper and Enter lain ment On Monday Night.

' Before the close of the assembly period, the football squad presented their coach, Mr. Laub, with a gold football. The presentation was made by Bert Williams. Friday was Mr. Laub's birthday and the boys used the occasion to show to their coach their appreciation of what he has done for them during the past two months. ON THE Lillian, Gish in . I^Mitfcij^me's Great Story, "The ■ScarJet^ter.'* William H. Smith—"Bill"—to every one of his friends—is the North Canton manager of the American Railway Express office on East Maple street. Hearing that Bill was an authority on carving turkey, a writer for The Sun approached him and ask- eded for pointers. "So you want a few tips on how to carve a turkey 1 Of course I'll tell you how I do it, although I am a much butter turkey eater than turkey carver," said Mr. Smith, with becoming modesty. "It is one thing to skilfully carve a turkey in the sanctity of your own home with only the members of your own little brood present and quite another proposition to dexterously dismember the bird when there is a herd of invited guests around the festal board. "After everybody has sat down to dinner and grace has been said, they one and all fold their hands placidly and contemplate with critical eye the dissection of the gobbler. Don't Watch the Cawcr "Why do not those around the Thanksgiving table look out the window or talk to each other, and thus ignore the head of the house, who is doing the gent's tailoring- work on the turkey ? They ought to know that it isn't good form to sit there drooling and watching him. "It is just this critical, watchful- waiting attitude that gets on the nerves of the carver, even though he may be fairly efficient at the job. This unanimous riveting of the attention of everybody at the table on every move he makes is what makes him moist and uncomfortable and often causes him to mangle and mutilate the bird in a ghastly and unworkmanlike manner," said Mr. Smith. "When the bird-surgeon is narrowly watched in this way his skill oozes away and his hand loses its cunning— after he has rassled with the gobbler for a spell, he begins to believe that it hasn't got a dawg-gawned joint in it, but .th*at. its tegs and ,>ving5 are solid bone! .- ... ' "When you.;rise te carve the.bird oft Tliursday," you wi'l be under "critical and close observation. Nevertheless, try your best to assume an-utterly nonchalant and sang froid air, whether you feel that way or not. "If the carving knife is not sharp, you can sort of get into swing and gain poise by giving it a few whetful swipes.up and down on the table leg-. Then you can playfully snip off a stalk of celery by way of testing its edge. This will cause a ripple of merriment among the guests and temporarily distract their attention from the work- ahead of you. • Slabbing the Turkey .."The first step in carving is to firmly transfix or stab the turkey through the chest with the carving fork, so that you can hold it in one spot while you operate on it. This stabbing, however, should never be done in a violent, hasty or slipshod manner," said Bill. "Many a man, under the embarrassing stress of observation, has thus punctured a gobbler's inner tube and received a blowout of hot stuffing in his eye for his carelessness. Either that, or the stab has pushed the turkey off the plate to the floor and left a greasy trail on the Oriental rug that will never come out. Therefore insert the fork slowly aud carefully through the turkey's chest, but not through the platter and on into the.table. Scoop Out the Stuffing "After you have sliced off all the joints and ehiselled away all the meat you can whittle off, the next step is to dig a subway into the interior department of the turkey and scoop out the stuffing or delicious upholstering with which every Thanksgiving turkey should be filled. "Then it is etiquette to ask each invited guest which particular portion of the bird he or she prefers. After that give 'em whatever there is the most of.

A PRAYER A Man's Thanksgiving As Offered By Arthur W. Newcomb. JEWELERS MEET DEFEAT The Marlowes of Akron are coming to North Canton tomorrow (Thanksgiving day) for a game with the Miller Cleaners. The contest will be staged on Portage street extension field and the time is 2:30. Admission, 60c and 25c. The Rubber City team is said to be a strong bunch ancl probably it will be on this occasion—extra strong. On all sides, both in Canton and Akron, word has gone out to "Get the Cleaners," which means that teams coming to North Canton make it a rule to substitute the strongest planks they can get for planks (players) showing the least sign of wear or other weakness. This pleases everyone connected with the Cleaners, and they sing the old song, "The bigger they are, the harder they fall." So the game tomorrow should contain several tingles, or thrills, as the dear girls call 'em when watching the lads tear through the opposition's line like a hungry tramp going through a plate of corned beef and cabbage. JEWELERS BEATEN '"Thursday"-and Friday-, -nights the picture in the Community Building will be "The Scarlet Lettei'," founded on Nathaniel- Hawthorne's great story. Lillian Gish is the star, and all must acknowledge that she is a capable actress. This picture is brought here under the auspices of tlie Senior Class of the North Canton high school. The members are going to take an educational trip east next summer and they are taking this means of "raising expense money." You'll get big returns on your investment tomorrow and Friday night. Prices: 20c, 30c and 40c, low rates considering that the picture is a sure knock-out. Also an illustrated news reel. Nusbaum Bunch of Cainton Hard To Win Game. Tried AT THE GRAND Mr. and -Airs. Coburn In "The Tavern," Under Cohan's Direction. One of the largest and most successful road shows of the present season is Mr. and Mis. Coburn in "The Tavern," at the Grand Opera 'House, Canton, on Nov. 21, 25 and 26. New York calls this "the play of 1000 laughs," and it is under the direction of George M. Cohan. Keep in mind that this is not a picture, but a company of red-blooded actors and actresses capable of playing exacting roles in a finished manner. If you want to enjoy yourself to the limit go and see "The Tavern." publicInvited To Inspect New House On Sunday On Dernier Road [By FRANK BERRODIN] On Sunday at Portage field the Miller Cleaners steam-rollered the Nusbaum Jewelers, one of' Canton's leading welterweight teams. The score of 14 to 0 tells part of the story. The Nusbaums entered North Canton confident of an easy victory and with them an array of college and sandlot stars. Above all, they brought their reputation of wide renown. After the final whistle, however, the Nusbaums admitted they were beaten by a wide-awake and fast team. As for the Miller Cleaners, (here were no outstanding stars, but a complete team of stars whet functioned,' one as brilliant as.tlie. other. With the exception of the -first quarter, there is no-<loubt'that-this >tn)ug Miller machine completely outplayed and outclassed the Nusbaums in every department of the game.

Newcomb offered up this personal prayer for Thanksgiving: "A Man's Thanksgiving: ,God of commoiisense, 1 give Thee thanks for the heavy blows of pain that drive me back from perilous ways into harmony with the laws of my being; for stinging- whips of hunger and cold that urge to bitter strivings and glorious achievement; for steepness and roughness of the way and staunch virtues gained by climbing over jagged rocks of hardship and stumbling- through dark and pathless sloughs of discouragement; for the acid blight of failure that has burned out of mo all thought of easy victory and toughened my sinews for fiercer battles and greater triumphs; for mistakes I have made, and the priceless lessons I have learned from them; for disillusion and disappointment that have cleared my vision and spurred my desire; for strong appetites and passions and the power they give when under pressure and control; for my imperfections that give me the keen delight of striving toward perfection. God of common and human brotherhood, I give Thee thanks for siren songs of temptation that lure and entangle the understanding of other men they reveal; for the weaknesses and failings of my neighbors and the joy of lending a helping hand; for my own shortcomings, sorrows and lonli- ness, that give me a deeper sympathy for others; for ingratitude and misunderstanding and the gladness of service without other reward than self- expression." • o - TO GIVE THANKS ON THURSDAY MORNING Zion Reformed and Community Christian Congregations Will Unite At S o'clock—Other Services In Churches.

"Mother Mine" "Mother Mine" is the name of the play they gave last night and wil! repeat tonight. It is a pastoral drama in which a small village in tlie agricultural part of Maine plays a prominent part with its endless gossip antl the desire of the natives to ,-go down to Boston" some day. The plot—if such it can be called— is easy-going and not troublesome to follow, and as Miranda Peasley ("Mother Mine") Dorothy Keller gives a splendid portrayal of a real mother to those needing "that divine institution" to guide them. The hero is a youth of 17, Jerry McConnell, and in enacting the role of her adopted son William Stark displays real histrionic ability. When he dropped his head and told Miranda, in answer to her question, "Have you a mother?" "I can just remember two loving blue eyes, and a warm cheek pressed close* to mine. I can still taste the salt of tears. That must have been my mother," he was very good. The whole play is neatly made and generally likeable.

MAYOR BECHER TELLS
WHY HE IS THANKFUL
Because Our Troubles Are Relatively Light and Because This
Is a Land Where Honest Endeavor Finds Reward.
PUBLIC HEALTH IS GOOD
A writer for The Sun meeting-
Mayor Logan W. Becher in the city
hall asked him for a few expressions
covering Thanksgiving day.
"Get your pencil ready," saicl the
Mayor, "and I'll dictate a few."
I am thankful because I live in
North Canton, the best town of its
size in the world.
I am thankful because we have the
Community Building, four fine
churches, good schools, good police
officers, good water, good fire department, good citizens, and a good newspaper-.
Because the public health is good,
with no plagues or epidemics to cause
public alarm and danger.
Beacuse such dread scourges as tuberculosis are on the decline in Stark
county, and particularly because that
killer of babies, diphtheria, is rapidly
being annihiliated through the discoveries of science backed by the force
of public opinion.
Because the schools are fuller of
little children than they ever have
' been before and their safety on the
, public highways is a matter of con-
-. cern to all citizens.
Because hatred and intolerance are
giving way to the broader and saner
notion that the true doctrine for this
■ land of so many diverse races and
creeds is the gospel of good will and
forbearance.
Because the bootlegger knows that
North Canton is a town to keep away
from.
Because the public conscience has
been awakened to the peril of organized crime.
Because all the officials in North
Canton are pulling together to make
this a better town.
Because our program of safety first
is going/along nicely and the people
are giving it real support.
Because the elections are over and
the ^people qan get down to the simple business of living, undisturbed by
the clamor of politics. '

Because we have men at the head
of the hugei Hoover factory with a
definite humanitarian program. ■ Men
who take Christianity into their business, who conscientiously try to conduct all their activities according to
the Se#i*?t6n on the Mount; men who
are going' cheerfully, hopefully and
happily about the task of making- the
average life of the average American
richer and fuller than it has ever been.
Bcause our troubles are relatively
light. Our tax burdens are far below
what many towns in Ohio have to
bear and we'make a better showing.
Because this is a land where honest endeavor finds reasonable reward,
■ i where hard work, honesty, sobriety,
troth keeping and intelligence are
qualities more valuable than money

where education is esteemed, intellectual freedom is respected, honorable

Loftiest Peak, Says Kramer.
Two years ago wliei) the salaries
of all North Canton village officials
were increased to meet the high cost
of living, the salary of tha village
treasurer, through an.1 unintentional
oversight, was left at the same figure.

this injustice by increasing- the salary of Guy Price from'-$100 to ?200
per year, the same to take effect beginning- with the year lj>2S. Mr. Price
is under a bond of ?5,Q0O.

THANKSGIVING GAME
PROMISES A THRILL
-. "My Master Singer today is John
McCormack who has earned his title
gallantly and who carried it proudly
and with honor," writes Walter Kramer, the well-known composer and
musical authority, in discussing the
world-famous tenor who will be heard
on Tuesday evening, November 29, at
the City Auditorium, Canton, in his
last Ohio appearance of the season.
"There is no one in today's singing
world whose brow more richly deserves the laurel," he continues. "For
John McCormack has attained to the
loftiest peak of. his art—that altitude
where few have the power to withstand, the dizzy height, that domain'
where only the elite reign in undisputed glory, those few whose message
has an appeal to all, high.and.low of
bro.w, rich ind poor in musi.cal knowledge, in short, musician.and layman
alike. ■'"'•-.-
"John McCormack has put to his
credit—and . he's a young man yet,
.only 42 years of a.gep-the biggest single contribution 'td'vocai'iirti.of any
artist I know." He has learned.how to
sing a song, no matter what the song,
sgT'thaif'ybu can understand, every
word in any language he happens to
Se singing, every emotion, every single shade of expression. That's why
I call him a Master Singer."
■ Many music lovers from this district are expected to attend the McCormack concert in Canton, where
tickets are available at $1.10 to 53.30
scaling of prices, at the Geo. C. Wille
& Co., 410 N. Market Ave., Canton.

ON THE
Lillian, Gish in . I^Mitfcij^me's Great
Story, "The ■ScarJet^ter.'*
William H. Smith—"Bill"—to every
one of his friends—is the North Canton manager of the American Railway Express office on East Maple
street. Hearing that Bill was an authority on carving turkey, a writer
for The Sun approached him and ask-
eded for pointers.
"So you want a few tips on how to
carve a turkey 1 Of course I'll tell you
how I do it, although I am a much
butter turkey eater than turkey carver," said Mr. Smith, with becoming
modesty.
"It is one thing to skilfully carve
a turkey in the sanctity of your own
home with only the members of your
own little brood present and quite another proposition to dexterously dismember the bird when there is a herd
of invited guests around the festal
board.
"After everybody has sat down to
dinner and grace has been said, they
one and all fold their hands placidly
and contemplate with critical eye the
dissection of the gobbler.
Don't Watch the Cawcr
"Why do not those around the
Thanksgiving table look out the window or talk to each other, and thus
ignore the head of the house, who is
doing the gent's tailoring- work on
the turkey ? They ought to know that
it isn't good form to sit there drooling and watching him.
"It is just this critical, watchful-
waiting attitude that gets on the
nerves of the carver, even though he
may be fairly efficient at the job.
This unanimous riveting of the attention of everybody at the table on
every move he makes is what makes
him moist and uncomfortable and
often causes him to mangle and mutilate the bird in a ghastly and unworkmanlike manner," said Mr.
Smith.
"When the bird-surgeon is narrowly
watched in this way his skill oozes
away and his hand loses its cunning—
after he has rassled with the gobbler
for a spell, he begins to believe that
it hasn't got a dawg-gawned joint in
it, but .th*at. its tegs and ,>ving5 are
solid bone! .- ... '
"When you.;rise te carve the.bird
oft Tliursday," you wi'l be under "critical and close observation. Nevertheless, try your best to assume an-utterly nonchalant and sang froid air,
whether you feel that way or not.
"If the carving knife is not sharp,
you can sort of get into swing and
gain poise by giving it a few whetful
swipes.up and down on the table leg-.
Then you can playfully snip off a stalk
of celery by way of testing its edge.
This will cause a ripple of merriment
among the guests and temporarily
distract their attention from the work-
ahead of you.
• Slabbing the Turkey
.."The first step in carving is to
firmly transfix or stab the turkey
through the chest with the carving
fork, so that you can hold it in one
spot while you operate on it. This
stabbing, however, should never be
done in a violent, hasty or slipshod
manner," said Bill.
"Many a man, under the embarrassing stress of observation, has thus
punctured a gobbler's inner tube and
received a blowout of hot stuffing in
his eye for his carelessness. Either
that, or the stab has pushed the turkey off the plate to the floor and left
a greasy trail on the Oriental rug that
will never come out. Therefore insert
the fork slowly aud carefully through
the turkey's chest, but not through the
platter and on into the.table.
Scoop Out the Stuffing
"After you have sliced off all the
joints and ehiselled away all the meat
you can whittle off, the next step is
to dig a subway into the interior department of the turkey and scoop out
the stuffing or delicious upholstering
with which every Thanksgiving turkey
should be filled.
"Then it is etiquette to ask each invited guest which particular portion
of the bird he or she prefers. After
that give 'em whatever there is the
most of. Tlie head of the house who
undergoes the embarrassing carving
ordeal (and also pays for the dinner) j

A Man's Thanksgiving As Offered By
Arthur W. Newcomb.
JEWELERS MEET DEFEAT
The Marlowes of Akron are coming
to North Canton tomorrow (Thanksgiving day) for a game with the Miller Cleaners. The contest will be
staged on Portage street extension
field and the time is 2:30. Admission,
60c and 25c. The Rubber City team
is said to be a strong bunch ancl probably it will be on this occasion—extra
strong. On all sides, both in Canton
and Akron, word has gone out to
"Get the Cleaners," which means that
teams coming to North Canton make
it a rule to substitute the strongest
planks they can get for planks
(players) showing the least sign of
wear or other weakness.
This pleases everyone connected
with the Cleaners, and they sing the
old song, "The bigger they are, the
harder they fall." So the game tomorrow should contain several tingles, or thrills, as the dear girls call
'em when watching the lads tear
through the opposition's line like a
hungry tramp going through a plate
of corned beef and cabbage.

To Inspect New House On Sunday
On Dernier Road
[By FRANK BERRODIN]
On Sunday at Portage field the Miller Cleaners steam-rollered the Nusbaum Jewelers, one of' Canton's leading welterweight teams. The score
of 14 to 0 tells part of the story.
The Nusbaums entered North Canton confident of an easy victory and
with them an array of college and
sandlot stars. Above all, they brought
their reputation of wide renown.
After the final whistle, however, the
Nusbaums admitted they were beaten
by a wide-awake and fast team.
As for the Miller Cleaners, (here
were no outstanding stars, but a complete team of stars whet functioned,'
one as brilliant as.tlie. other. With the
