DONALD FESTERLY During the recent months of industrial strife and popular confusion, current events have been almost as common a topic of conversation as the weather. Wherever people congregate, somebody opens the subject, of "What's the world coming to, anyhow?" It's a wholesome condition. The common $;ense of Tom, Dick and Harry has saved this nation *"- from many a bad spill. Recently an old man (slightly deaf) sat near me on the train. With him was a teen-age girl, a grand-daughter perhaps. They had divided a newspaper between them. Grandad spoke first. "There's nothing wrong with this country if every body would get together and do the right thing," he observed. The girl looked at him, shifted her gum and replied, "Many an honest heart beats beneath a wooden head." Maybe she lacked respect for her elders but the young wo- (man was practical. People in a country this .large don't get together. Moreover they don't do the right thing unless they . /now what it is, and their education in economic matters has been sadly neglected. Unless that very situation is corrected before long, our people will trail the British into the wilderness of Collectivism. Within the last 12 months, I have been privileged to talk with students of a great many high schools and colleges in widely scattered states. I have discussed private enterprise and state socialism with them, and I can testify that most of theni seem to consider private enterprise a failure. Some of them have been extremely well coached to' debate against the American system. Questioning them sympathetically, I find that very few of the students I meet have a clear idea about what private enterprise is. They consider it a system that gives special advantages to rich men and big corporations. They point out that 6ur system has n*bt maintained full employment, has not prevented alternate depressions and booms, and , has never equalized living standards. It is no surprise that studious youngsters are able to pick the obvious flaws in any system, but here is a surprise: Almost without exception these young people seem to think all the imperfections of America's present system can be corrected by government management. With the scandalous exhibitions of incompetence from WPA to the OPA, how can anybody expect politics to help? > - Harmony is really needed in American industry, and Am- "'erican government, but it will be found only on a plane of better knowledge. Text books must be prepared and instructors trained to teach Americanism if human freedom, individual opportunity and intellectual liberty are to continue. When enough of us know the truth we can do the right thing whether we can actually get together or not.

Therefore, I, Harry S.

In witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States of America ta be affixed.

Christmas Seals Persons expecting to be employed during the holiday season to help take care of the rush in business must have social security account numbers, Clifton H. Little, Manager of the Canton, Ohio field office of the Social Security Administration, announced today. "One reason this is so essential is that an account number and card assure the .worker that all wages he receives, whether he works part time or full time, will be credited to his old-age and survivors insurance account," Clifton H. Little, said "His account is kept by the Administration according to the social security account number issued to him. "Unless the worker has a job in view, however, he should not apply for a number. As soon as he is certain of going to work at an early date, he should go to the nearest Social Security Board office and put in his application for his account number. "If he lives some distance from the field office, he may go to the nearest post office and ■ secure Form SS-5, fill in the blanks, and send, it to the Social Security Administration. He will then receive the account number by mail. "If he has lost an account card, he should use the same form to apply for a duplicate. "The account number is necessary because it should be presented to the employer before the worker goes onto a jab." The social security field office in this area is at 304 Dime Savings Bank Bldg., Canton 2, Ohio. Loyal Daughters Glass of Zion Lutheran ... Your Protection Against Tuberculosis Rev. Schreckengas. Revival Meetings President of Ohio State Jaycees To Address North Canton Group i George Wm- Brittain, President of the Ohio Junior Chamber of Commerce will be the guest speaker at the December third meeting* of the North Cantorf Jaycees.

Rev. Schreskengast, evangelist of Ashtabula, Ohio, will conduct revival meetings at the Greentown Church of God in Greentown beginning on December 1 and continuing through December 15th. ■ Services will be held each evening* and special music has been planned. The pastors1 of the Church, Rev. W. C. and Mrs. Esther Jordan invite the public to attend'. A thorough search of any modern city today would surely fail to reveal the lamplighter, so familiar in the by-gone days- of the gaslight era. The solitary figure with ladder and torch plodding from lamp to darkened lamp, leaving behind a trail of cheerful blazing light which bannished every frightening shadow from the dusk-filled streets, disappeared with the advent of electric lights. Yet on Thanksgiving Day, in every home in the nation, the picture of such a lamplighter will be found, gracing the f946 Tuberculosis Christmas Seal, the messenger of health that has for forty years frightened away the shadow of tuberculosis. The fortieth annual sale of Christmas Seals to raise funds for the control of tuberculosis will be conducted this year from November 25, until Christmas and 87 per cent of the money will be used- within the community in which it is raised. Eight per cent will be j used in the State and the remaining 5 per cent for the coordination* of National programs. Almost forty years ago, the first Christmas Seals were sold in Ohio. In 1910 the death rate from tuberculosis was '143 per 100,000 persons and in that year there were 6,S44 deaths from the white plague. In that year also the Christmas Seal Sale in Ohio- amounted to- $37,235.27 and the money was immediately put to work fighting .tuberculosis. In 1945, the death rate from tuberculosis in Ohio was 36;5 per- 100,000 and there were only 2,573 deaths from, the disease. The anr nual Christmas Seal Sale in 1945 amounted to $925,406.89, every cerlt of which is being- used' to further reduce the ^number of deaths and needless suffering caused by tuberculosis. <p The Loyal Daughters Class of the Zion Lutheran Church will hold their Christmas party meeting in the social rooms of the' church on Wednesday, December 4* at 6 o'clock. The meeting will begin with a- covered dish dinner with hostesses, Mrs. Ellen Smith, Mrs. Catherine Elsass, and Miss Anna Exentemper' in charge of arrangements. Mrs. Zena Freeze will have charge of the devotions. Special music has been planned for the listening pleasure of those attending and Rev. Paul Daneker will present a Christmas message.

Christmas Seals
Persons expecting to be employed during the holiday season to
help take care of the rush in business must have social security account numbers, Clifton H. Little,
Manager of the Canton, Ohio field
office of the Social Security Administration, announced today.
"One reason this is so essential
is that an account number and
card assure the .worker that all
wages he receives, whether he
works part time or full time, will
be credited to his old-age and survivors insurance account," Clifton
H. Little, said "His account is kept
by the Administration according to
the social security account number
issued to him.
"Unless the worker has a job in
view, however, he should not apply for a number. As soon as he is
certain of going to work at an early date, he should go to the
nearest Social Security Board office and put in his application for
his account number.
"If he lives some distance from
the field office, he may go to the
nearest post office and ■ secure
Form SS-5, fill in the blanks, and
send, it to the Social Security Administration. He will then receive
the account number by mail.
"If he has lost an account card,
he should use the same form to apply for a duplicate.
"The account number is necessary because it should be presented
to the employer before the worker
goes onto a jab."
The social security field office in
this area is at 304 Dime Savings
Bank Bldg., Canton 2, Ohio.

A thorough search of any modern city today would surely fail to
reveal the lamplighter, so familiar
in the by-gone days- of the gaslight era. The solitary figure with
ladder and torch plodding from
lamp to darkened lamp, leaving behind a trail of cheerful blazing
light which bannished every frightening shadow from the dusk-filled
streets, disappeared with the advent of electric lights.
Yet on Thanksgiving Day, in every home in the nation, the picture
of such a lamplighter will be found,
gracing the f946 Tuberculosis
Christmas Seal, the messenger of
health that has for forty years
frightened away the shadow of tuberculosis.
The fortieth annual sale of
Christmas Seals to raise funds for
the control of tuberculosis will be
conducted this year from November 25, until Christmas and 87 per
cent of the money will be used-
within the community in which it
is raised. Eight per cent will be j
used in the State and the remaining 5 per cent for the coordination*
of National programs.
Almost forty years ago, the first
Christmas Seals were sold in Ohio.
In 1910 the death rate from tuberculosis was '143 per 100,000 persons and in that year there were
6,S44 deaths from the white plague. In that year also the Christmas Seal Sale in Ohio- amounted to-
$37,235.27 and the money was immediately put to work fighting .tuberculosis.
In 1945, the death rate from tuberculosis in Ohio was 36;5 per-
100,000 and there were only 2,573
deaths from, the disease. The anr
nual Christmas Seal Sale in 1945
amounted to $925,406.89, every
cerlt of which is being- used' to further reduce the ^number of deaths
and needless suffering caused by
tuberculosis. rkfed: in the calendar quarter, and" date hired, if in the quarter being reported.
