of Former Governor Cox. He hacl
served as editorial director of the

On Thursday night men prominent
in the professional and business world
of Canton attended a dinner in the
Highway Inn, on the Square, and ox-
tolled the Rotary club movement as
it exists today in every country on
the globe. They enumerated the noteworthy accomplishments bv the Ro-
tarians in recent years, and said that
these alone justify all the thought,
sacrifice and expenditure which has
been put into the organization since
the Armistice was signed.
C. J. Corey, head of the Troy laundry in Canton and president of the-
Rotary club in that city, headed the
delegation. Charles E. Morris, former
publisher of the Canton Daily News,
and now manager of the Canton
Chamber of Commerce; Joseph Mark-
ley, member of the Canton Board of
j Education and a Rotarian of distinction, and-others-spoke .eloquently of
| the advantages of such an organiza-
■ tion to North Canton. They said such
j a club will be an occasion for marking another milestone of progress.
Club Is Organized
On motion of Highfield Johnson,
which was promptly seconded, the Ro-
. tarians were told that North Canton
was ready to affiliate with the parent
organization. Officers were, elected as

The number by DuBois is French in
origin ancl modern in construction.
There is ample opportunity, for expression and portrayal of the greatest human dramatic tragedy recorded
in history. Accompanying the deliberate quotations df Jesus such as
"Father, forgive them," "I thirst,"
and "Woman Behold Thy Son," can,
be heard the cry of the mob demand
ing the death of the Master.
The regular choir of the church will
present the oratorio. The personnel
consists of six sopranos, five contraltos, five tenors, and six bassos. Soloists for the evening will be Miss June
Evans, soprano; M. E. Bixler, baritone; and Harold Schiltz, tenor. Miss
