SERVICES IN CHAPEL
AND ON AIR FOR
W. H. (BOSS) HOOVER
His Friends In the Good Will
Mission In Canton and In The
'... Community Christian Church,
North Canton, Pay Tribute To
His Memory With Music,
Songs and Addresses.
REV.   COSSABOOM   SPEAKS
JOSEPH M. MARKLEY
As a warm personal friend and coworker of W. H. Hoover in many
worthy causes, Joe paid a glowiiv;
tribute to the Boss over the radio at
the Good Will mission services on
Sunday night.
The Good Will mission on East
Tusc. street, Canton, of which Karl
Gooseman is superintendent, kept the
memory of W. H. (Boss) Hoover
green on Sunday night by recalling
his many noble deeds in behalf of humanity. Tn a measure it was North
Canton night, although Canton paid
reverence by attending the service,
not withstanding the blustery, snowy
weather. Karl Gooseman, in well
chosen words, paid a glowing tribute
to Boss Hoover and recalled a few of
;the • many things he hcd'done to put
'<lhe mission on it:; present foundation.
Tomorrow (Thursday) is the fifth
anniversary of the death of Mr. Hoover, so a week ago Mr.' Gooseman, E.
F. Weckel, president of the board of
directors of the mission; Joseph
Markley, and oilier members of the
board, decided to hold a memorial
service. To them at least, the name
and deeds of Boss Hoover will never
die.
Oil Planting of the Boss j
In the building on the ground floor
is a largo oi! painting of Boss Hoover.
It is a remarkable likeness and the
artist evidently caught the Boss "just
as he was," especially the smiling
eyes. Everyone acquainted with him,
or persons meeting him for the first
time, were attracted by those eyes.
They were clear as crystal and they
generated good will and kindness.
That picture hanging on the left wall
of the mission instantly gives the visitor the impression that Mr. Hoover
is extending a cordial welcome to the
mission. Parenthetically it is only
fair- to everyone connected with the
Good Will mission to say that the
hand of fellowship is extended at all
times to those seeking its shelter, and
many a man has lost his "inferiority
complex" and walked with firm step
a few minutes after entering the
building, thanks to the cordial greeting he, received.
■. Broadcast Program
The   services  in   the  chapel   from
0:00 to 7:00 were broadcast from the
platform.  The program was as follows:

was received with regret, as the
Swopes are popular in Canton, as
elsewhere.

PASTOR COSSABOOM
Says  Boss 'Hoover's  Character Made
Him What He Wus.
The evening- service was from 7:00
to S:00. After the singing the Rev.
M. A. Cossaboom, pastor of The Community Christian church, and a firm
friend of Boss Hoover, delivered an
address in which he called attention
to the many fine qualities of Mr.
Hoover.
The program was as follows:
Songs,- "He Keeps Me Singing,"
"Let the Lower Lights Be Burning,"
and "What a Friend," sung by all.
"Confidence," a trombone and vocal
solo by George Chenot, the music and
words of which had been written by
Mr, Rodehaver.
Egyptian music explained by George
Chenot.
"Sweet Peace, the Gift of God's
Love;" a duet by Miss Anderson and
Miss Marshall.
Pastor Cossaboom's Tribute
After his introduction by Superintendent Gooseman, the Rev. M. A.
Cossaboom, among- other things, said:
The fact that Boss Hoover is remembered after five years is a testimony to his greatness because most
people are forgotten after a few
weeks.
Among tho ways to live are to he
decent, temperate, teetotaler, courteous, unselfish, high-minded, using- life
to serve others, ami their opposite.".
Boss Hoover was temperate) a teetotaler, courteous, unselfish, high-
minded, thoughtful,- and used his -life
lo serve others, thus choosing- the
best way of life.
Mr. Cossaboom said that it was not
the number' of talents Boss Hoover
had tha!" made him great, but the
manner i\ whicli he used them. His
chaiacter made him what he was, a
thorough  Christian  gentleman.

OLD FEUDREVIVED
Odd Fellows of Greentown vs. K. of P.
of North Canton at Cards.
For years Odd Fellows in Greentown and members of the Knights of
Pythias in North Canton have been
willing'to join hands in any cause for
the benefit of humanity but when
euchre is mentioned then friendship
ceases, swords are drawn and, sav it'
gently, blood would flow but for "the
fact that the swords are more ornamental than useful. They are of the
sort they give heroes when they return victorious from foreign  wars.
On Friday evening, Feb. 20, at 7:31)
members of Loyalty lodge will leave
their castle on North Main street and
march on Greentown for a battle royal
over euchre. The contest will be* in
the I. O. O. F. temple. So if the
reader sees ambulances dashin<>
around Greentown on Friday night he
need not be unduly alarmed. The doctors will be merely taking the Odd
Follows and K. of P.'s to the emergency   wards   in   Canton   hospital.-:.

Benedict Arnold
THE anniversary of George Washington's birthday on Monday recalls to mind Benedict Arnold,
the traitor. He ranks second to Judas
That was the same Benedict Arnold
of whom it has been said that if iv
had been fortunate enough to b
killed during the battle of Saratoga
he would have been remembered as
one of the most brilliant of American
heroes instead of beimr scorned as a
"despicable traitor."
Every day we hear of men whose
conduct entitles them to be called
"Benedict Arnold." A President had
two of them in his cabinet not so
many years ago, and yet when placed
on trial they were acquitted on "technical grounds." A few davs ago a
former naval - officer "threw himself
on the mercy of the Court" when
charged with selling plans of American forts to a foreign power.
Probably those fellows learned the
art' of betrayal in the school o<"
double-crossers. A double-crosser is
a liar on general principles, and he
will steal, accept a bribe, or commit
perjury.
Yes, there are thousands of pocket
editions of Benedict Arnold in the
world today in all walks of life, and
from, what I hear many of them are
teaching their sons to foil
footsteps.
As The Sun Sees It
Without Prejudice
Home Ownership
NT
ORTH CANTON, like every town
America,'' "stopped building
houses when .the depression came
along; although thiB community was
not hit below the waist line as were
many cities, towns and villages. The
statement, "More houses are needed
in North Canton," has been heard for
at least 20 years, and except during
short intervals, the assertion is true.
Several dwellings have been built
in this town in recent months and
among the trends which people view
with satisfaction is the growing interest in home ownership. All indications arc that this general tendency
will become more pronounced during
the coming summer.
This is a sign of good health, and
a   town   needs   a.   robust   constitution
the same as an individual if it is to
amount to anything. Home ownership,
.after all, lies at the very foundation
of community stability. When people
own the houses they live in they demonstrate in tangible form their faith
and belief in the future of the town,
It is furthermore among "home owners"—to use an expression used by
dealers in real estate—that we generally find the public-spirited citizens
whose work can be relied upon when
a job must ho done to develop the
community's assets.
It is the opinion of The Sun thai
an investment in a house, if tho owner
is living in it or intends to do so, is
one of the safest and best of all investments which he can find al the
present lime.

Declares    "Boss"'    Hoover    Was
Every  Way  a  Great  Man.
After being introduced lo the audience and listeners on the radio by
Karl Gooseman, Ben Long of The
Sun, said:
Thursday, February 25, is the anniversary of the death of William H.
(Boss) Hoover, whose soul winged its
way from this earth to its Creator in
1932. Boss Hoover was in every way
a, great man, and like the majority ot
great men, he was extremely modest.
Ho had charm, he possessed a keen
sense of humor, he was honest as daylight, and his sincere manner won instant recognition from all. His soul
was broad as the sky. Bigotry could
find no lodgement in his great mind.
When he entered a room people who
had never before seen him were alow in their . tracted by his personality—he seemed
i to be wreathed in goodne.-s. This
characteristic few men possess. When
I first met him in J!)22 I liked him at
once. As time went on 1 learned In

worth nothing.
Mr. Cossaboom related an incident
in his own boyhood days when the
lad he was with on the beach cheated
him over planks that had been washed
ashore. He concluded by saying that
"it is better to be a victim of selfishness than the one who perpetrates it
on others."
Mr. Cossaboom advised his hearers
to be servants of humanity. Examples
he cited were the Apostle Paul, Washington, Lincoln, Clara Barton, Florence Nightingale, Jane Addams, Dr.
Carver.. These are remembered; they
have built their own monuments. With
these must be remembered Jesus
Christ. ~ These are the saviors of the
world through their service and ministry. Boss Hoover used his life and
did not throw it away. He was known
for his service, ministry and unselfishness all his life. He will be talked
about five years hence because he was
a servant of humanity.
Hymn, "Oh Jesus, I Have Promised," sung by all, and a prayer by
Mrs. Gooseman closed the meeting.

and was greatly enjoyed by the crowd.

Major. McGinty, head of the Old

JOEMARKLEY'S VIEWS
Asserts   W.  II.   Hoover  Always  Had
Time To Do a Good  Deed.
Joseph M. Markley, manager of
Dun & Bradstreet, and a close friend
of years' standing, stood before the
microphone and paid the following
tribute to Mr. Hoover:
They called him "Boss", but he
was not a boss, even though he was
the founder and head of a great manufacturing business.
The name was but an effectionate
title that was given to him by his
thousands of friends who regarded
him as one of thc kindest, gentlest,
and most sympathetic persons they
ever knew and whose every purpose
in life seemed to he thai of making
others happy.
He was a gentleman in every sense
of the word, true to his conviction*-,
clean inside as well as out, and neither looked up to the rich nor down
upon the poor as he stood in the highest esteem of his thousands of lYrre--
in all  walks of life.
To be in his presence was an ni-
spiration and a Ijle.-sing and one v.-c nl

where each member of any family is
free to go at all times. It cost Boss
Hoover about $500,000. It is the playground and intellectual center of the
