Four of the most widely known women in North Canton are in two hospitals in ..Canton.this week where they

Drunken Drivers
CONGRATULATIONS to Mayor Seccombe of Canton for his determined stand to protect the lives of
pedestrians and automobile drivers
from "drunks at the wheel." When
the chief executive takes a stand for
the public good he tolerates no nonsense and as a result he is making
Canton safer than it has been for
years. Even his critics—and every
man in public life has them—are
willing to concede that Mayor Seccombe has the "guts" to back up his
statements. He has never shown a
yellow streak since he has been in
public life.
That drunkeness at the wheel in all
parts of the nation is already becoming too prevalent for comfort is an
established fact. Daily reports are
coming in of disastrous collisions between automobiles, caused by the intoxication of one or both drivers. Bodies are maimed, minds are seared and
lives are snuffed out.
About the only way to afford protection to the traveling public is to
jail every person found driving while
under the influence of liquor and ln
addition refuse them permission to
handle a wheel for not less than one
year.

The Nominee
YES,, -It is -funny .to watch the (candidates—nominees is a better word
—in their search for votes. When
with farmers they are strong for *the
tillers of the soil. If speaking to a
group of ex-service men they -are pulling 'for the veterans. When 'talking
to a woman's club they just exude
love "for 'femininity, and when in the
city they are the laboring -man's
best :friend. The possibility 'of votes
is a great producer of fervor. "Kindest of friends is the nominee, and! enjoy watching him as '-he sits with the
wide'eyed wonder of a child listening
to some sympathetic fellow-citizen

will promptly forget as soon as the
sympathetic one is out of sight.
Personally he knows he is the most
efficient, most learned and best informed economist of the day—a veritable text-book for the guidance of
the voters.    But he is too modest to

GREETING OLD FRIENDS
Edward   W.  Snyder  Is  Subbing   For
Ralph At Citizens B. & L.
A man who has hundreds of stalwart, friends in and around North
Canton has been kept busy shaking
hands in The Citizens "Building . and
Loan  company  office on  the  Square.
'He is Edward 'W.'Snyder of the home
office in Canton, and he is subbing
for Ralph Young, who with'-his wife
and brother-in-law ■ and the Iatter's
wife, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Reel, are on

RETURNS TO HOME
Every Vote Counts
PROBABLY the one reason that
keeps more voters away from the
. polls election day than anything
else is the feeling that one vote makes
no difference. "My vote counts nothing," say millions of our citizens. "The
result will be just the same whether
I vote or not. Why should I bother?"
The Republican candidates for sheriff
of Stark county know better than
that, so do their friends. Dozens of
cases could be cited to prove that "every vote counts."
Another reason why many people do
not vote is their feeling that they
know very little about politics and
can't get interested. It would be
about as reasonable for them to say
field, later President of the United
States, and three ex-Governors of
Ohio: Chai*les Foster, James M. Cox
and George White.
Personal  Investigation
No doubt they, through their experience, found, as I have discovered,
that tlie best way to ascertain if the
public funds are being expended
wisely is to leave Washington and its
volumes of committee testimony behind and go in person to the spot
where public projects, .financed out of
the treasury, are being maintained or
newly undertaken. It was with this
idea in mind that I traveled the West
since Congress adjourned, checking
into the operations of the Department
of Agriculture, the appropriations of
which my sub-committee is particularly charged with.
■Visits the Fcrrests
I wish it were possible to tell yon
the story of the activities of the United States forest service, one of the
outstanding arms of the Department
of Agriculture, controlling, as it does,

Don't Do It
Y advice to persons in the habit of
telling others about their .various
ills is—doii't do it. Your ills .may
be of importance to you, but they are
of secondary consideration with your
neighbors and friends—even with
many of your relatives. They have
troubles of their own and don^t want
to be bothered with yours.
Aside from your immediate family,
about the only person interested 'in
your physical woes is your doctor and
his interest lies in the fact that he
knows you have confidence in his -ability to "pull you through," if you have
a fighting chance; (consequently 'his
friendship and professional pride in
his work cause him to give you, at
times, more consideration than you
deserve.
I saw the forest rangers of this service, an incomparably efficient'body of
public servants, directing and commanding tlie CCC boys in their wearisome day and night fights against
forest fires, thereby saving millions of
dollars of stumpage from destruction
during* this hot and dry season; how
the Soil Conservation service, a new
branch of the Department of Agriculture created'by the present-.Congress,
is meeting the problem of erosion on
public and private lands of the West,
healing up the great gullies down
which the waters have been -.carrying
off the rich soil, leaving behind bare
and unproductive ground.
Time, however, does not permit if
I am to paint a.complete picture of .the
drought country, whose agriculture
has been almost totally ruined for this
season and whose people—pioneering
.Americans of ths .sturdiest kind—are
facing a black winter.

My first stopping place was Man-

that live just at jhe edge of this community is well screened when you are
welcomed to Mandan by a troup of
painted Indians in their primitive costumes who meet all trains with a
hearty welcome. They are beating
tom-toms, performing war dances and
creating a scene that belies the misery you find just a few miles away.
They perform .regularly—drought.'or

railroad employs them to remind their
train passengers that here is the
country where the Indians not long

Col. Clarence iChamberlain, world-

genial flyer is modest as he is brave,
and he won without an effort the
friendship of thp 250 men present
from  all  sections  of the  county.
Called upon for a speech, he narrated his trip across the Atlantic with
the eccentric Charles Lavine as a
passenger. They w.*;e headed for

As The Sun Sees It
Without Prejudice
Local Swimmers
ALL persons in The Sun's district
having something more than skim-
milk in their veins must have felt
a warm glow of pleasure rush over
them when they read in this newspaper last week that swimmers holding
membership in the Community Building carried off the honors at Orrville
and Alliance, not to mention other
places, including Akron, several weeks
ago.
Two things are essential these days
before a boy or girl can become proficient in the art of staying on top of
water. One is a modern swimming
pool; the other, an experienced, careful teacher. Thanks to the generosity of a North Canton man, the
youngsters in this town do not have
to hunt "old swimmin' holes" in
which lurk all manner of disease;
neither do they risk. limb nor life
while playing in the water. The pool
and proficient teachers are here and
at a price within reach of the smallest pocketbook.
While he will emphatically deny his
leadership, owing to his extreme modesty, .nevertheless-'it is a fact that to
Willis. H. Wood, physical instructor in
the Community Building, must go the
chief credit for the splendid aquatic
victories scored by the children and
the young men and women of North
Canton. 'Tis true he has able assistants, but as he trained many of them
and then selected them as teachers
the responsibility rests squarely upon
his shoulders.
Since coming to North Canton, Willis Wood has won a warm place in the
hearts of all lovers of fair play in
sports. Himself an all-around athlete
with a national reputation, he carries
to the limit his viewpoint that to be
successful and attractive, sport must
be clean. Little wonder then that he
has established for North Canton a
reputation of which it is justly proud.

Travel By Plane
THE arrival in Canton for a visit of
several days of that great flyer,
Col. Clarence Chamberlain, reminds the public that he is to attempt
a stratosphere flight across the Atlantic accompanied by his bride, the
former Miss Louise Ashby, daughter
of State Senator George Ashby of
Maine. The gallant colonel, by the
way, was the guest of the Foremen's
club of Stark county on Saturday at
the Hoover camp in North Canton.
The Sun believes the U. S. government would be aiding science, and incidentally its own welfare, if it financed Chamberlain. His past services to his country deserve substantial
recognition. Such an expert flyer
should not be compelled to journey
from city to city as an air taxi driver
for the purpose of raising money to
equip his plane for a voyage the entire world will follow with deep interest.

"Tho Ohio State Fair," says the

study of the progress and achievement of tho seven million people of
this great state. It is an exposition of the agricultural and industrial exploits of our people. It does
not, however, stop there. To all of
us it is a symbol of the magnificent
strides toward a brighter future.
"There will be thousands of
Ohioans who will attend the Fair

commerce, education, and art. The
Fair is outstanding among the
fairs of the Nation, and testifies
to the greatness of Ohio as a leading State.
"Let me, as Governor, pay particular tribute to those who are
cooperating to make the 1936 Fair
the greatest of all. They have per-
formed a public service of inesti
mable value.
"To those who will attend the

and hearty welcome. It is my sincere hope that this exposition will
bring to our attention the worth
of our beloved State, and leave us
with a firm resolve to serve her
well."
