NORTH CANTON, STARK COUNTY, OHIO. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 26, 1936.—SIX PAGES BUSINESS MEN WILL DINE OUT THURSDAY Accompanied By Members of Their Families the Live Wires of North Canton W01 Go To Hoover Camp For Dinner At 6:30—Games For Young, Old. BAND TO FURNISH MUSIC The business men of -North Canton and their families will enjoy a night at the Hoover camp tomorrow (Thursday). Dinner will be served at G:30, although if a man is detained in town the committee in charge of the "eats" -will see that he doesn't go hungry. The North Canton Band will furnish the .music, .and as is always the case when this band plays, the .tunes will please the public. The Sun has been asked to estate that the stores will remain open tomorrow evening until the usual hour, six o'clock. . Committee In Charge The committee 'having '.the 'business men's picnic in charge consists of Otis .Jester, E. R. .Mays, Austin Schiltz, C. B. Williams, Carl Sponseller, Charles Schafer, Paul Strausser, Wayne Hummel and William J. Evans. Games of various kinds .will be played, the object being to cause everyone to forget the heat and enjoy '.life to the .limit—and .Hoover camp is the place to do.it. areImoshtal Well Known North .Canton Women Undergo Major Operations Four of the most widely known women in North Canton are in two hospitals in ..Canton.this week where they underwent major operations. Needless to add their many friends, of which The-Sun is proud to be numbered, are wishing them the best of luck and trust they will be back in town before many weeks elapse.

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. o 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 give!him a few political pointers he will promptly forget as soon as the sympathetic one is out of sight.

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 a motor trip to Cape Cod and other points in New England. They will be 'back in September. And speaking about "The • Citizens, keep in mind that "Miss Mary Pater- -eon is always on 'hand to greet patrons. A popular young lady is Mary, and deservedly so. She 'has never 'been known to have a grouch. 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, some 150 national forests with their Betty Lc Master Spent.Summer With Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Conrad Betty Le Master of the Christian 'home of Cleveland .will return to the 'home on Saturday after a summer ■spent with Mr. and Mrs. A. ;E. Conrad.

Betty has only one hand and the Cora-ads supply the oHierfarlher with their Ihelpfulness. g At Asbury Park Mr. -and Mrs. Howard .13. 'Fairfax of McKinley avenue are enjoying the ocean Ihreezes at Asbury Park, New Jersey. The sights, they write <Qn a card to 'The Sun, are well worth seeing at that popular resort. "I would like to *bi:ing the ocean hac"k with us and put it in our back y.arc!'" sjiys Mrs. Fairfax.

If they take! .stituting one of the most valuable that attitude about work no one will: natural'resources in the country; how hire them, and they will "become pau pers. If the people generally take that attitude about their government the country will go into the pauper class. The duty of every man,'every woman, is to vote. o 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. Hard Hit Sections The hardest hit portions are in eastern Montana, in both the Dakotas and in Nebraska, Kansas, parts of Minnesota and Iowa. My observations at close range were made in lation In It cal Practices Attorney ChaSes R.

It was this sort of investigation that I thought yould mean more to me in forming judgment as to appropriations for relfef than the cold printed reports thatlwill flow into Washington for our consideration. Met By [Indians My first stopping place was Man- dan, North Dakota. The great disaster that has falleh or. the farming folk 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 no drought—for the Northern Pacific railroad employs them to remind their train passengers that here is the country where the Indians not long ago held full sway. (Continued next week) CHAMMLMHERE Famous Pilot Gliest of Foremen At The Hoover/Camp Meeting Col. Clarence iChamberlain, world- renowned air pilot, was the guest of the Foremen's club of Stark county at Hoover camr| on Saturday. The 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 Berlin but the gas g'ave out and they landed in the small village of Mans- feldt, near Leipzig. Mrs. Chamberlain, wife of tlie colonel, was the guest of Miss Hilda Arnold at luncheon in tlie Hoover cafeteria on Thursday noon. With Mrs. Chamberlain was Mrs. Putman, a .member of the editorial stall* of the Canton Repository. FARM UNION NEWS Booster Local Hears Good Program By Local and Louisville Talent Booster Local Farm Union met on Friday nigjit and held a short business meeting in Jackson township and listened to an interesting talk by A. M. Hickey, who discussed the farmers' needs from tlie government standpoint, and illustrated the need for greater profits for the farmers and a more equable dealing' with commission men. Mr. and Mrs. Ish gave an original one-act play, using the names of members of the union for its characters. Junior local gave a number of readings, and a member of Louisville local made an address that was much enjoyed. 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. STAliwrYMi TO OPEN LABOR DAY It Promises This Year To Be "Bigger and Better Than Ever."—President J. E. Holm and Secretary Wilson Look For Record-Breaking Crowds. 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. The time approaches when the traveler by changing from plane to plane will fly around the world. Phileas EVERY AUTO DRIVER MUST HAVE LICENSE New Law Goes Into Effect On Oct. 1, And If Caught Without One the Penalty Is $500 Fine Or Six Months In Jail—Cost of One Is Forty Cents. WARNING TO BEGINNERS Every Oliioan who drives an automobile must have a driver's license, which is obtained from the "Deputy Registrar of Motor Vehicles" of the county, Canton. The fee is forty cents and the license, unless revoked, is good for one year. A renewal may be obtained in the same manner. Examinations AM persons not 18 years of age, and all persons who hafe not had at least one full year's driving experience must take an examination. The examination will consist of "Eyesight test," knowledge of "motor vehicle laws,' and "actual driving test." It will be conducted by the state highway patrol. _ , - . , ., ., ; All other persons will automatically Fogg's journey around the earth, as be issued a license and not required to take the examination. The penalty Jules Verne told the tale, took eighty days. Circling the earth will yet be done as a matter of course in a length of time nearer eighty hours than eighty days. . Much water has passed under the bridge since Fulton's first steamboat voyage up the Hudson on August 11, 1807; the first Atlantic cable message August 17, 1859; the first steamer to cross the Atlantic, launched August 23, 1818; and the first world flight of the Graf Zeppelin, August 29, 1929. Step by step the world advances to greater victories on land, on the water, and in the air, although the greatest strides are in the air. But for a long time to come transoceanic airplane travel will be for the few. The multitude of the travelers for driving without a license is $500 fine or six months imprisonment, or both. The license should be carried at all times as police officers, highway patrolmen and other duly authorized officers may require the display of the license at any time—will always be required in the event of an accident, or in the event of an arrest in violation of traffic laws. 0.1.

A special program is being planned for the occasion by the committee in charge of arrangements. AH members will receive a special .optice of this meeting. Legion Child Welfare The Ohio Department of the American Legion did an outstanding jsb in child welfare ws-rk during the -past year. A total of S123.405.43 was contributed by Posts for the clothing, feeding, medical attention and care of children of the state. This asssist- ance was not confined to children of Legionnaires, but was distributed to all needy children whose wants were brought to the attention of Legion Posts. It was estimated that 55 000 children in this state received aid.' Big Legion Year The American Legion is practically assured of a 193G membership p/ one million. Of this number 50,000 are enrolled with the Ohio Department. In 11,300 communities the American Legion is active, an average of nearly four posts for i-ach county in the United States. Non-PoSitic-d With the approach of another political campaign that promises to be even warmer than usual, many Legion leaders are asking that the membership be careful not to violate the letter or spirit of those portions of the American Legion Constitution which deal with political activity.
