This is a world in which there have been many revolutions. Many governments have been overturned by force and violence. In many of them, if some element became dissatisfied with the result of an election, or with the policies of the government, it might march on the capital and seize the reins of power. The fact that nothing of that sort ever happened in the United States, is a wonderful tribute to the spirit and self-restraint of our people. The covered football grandstand, contracted of steel obtained from the old Mid-Atlantic League stands that stood at Summit Beach Park, in Akron, is , nearly complete. Wooden seats have been installed in two sections, with only one section remaining- to be finished in the 2,500 seat capacity stadium. Underneath the structure, dressing rooms, an office, a concession stand and storage rooms are being built. The stands are located on the west side of the field and, if necessary, a similiar grandstand could be built on the east side. The lighting system at the stadium, incidentally, is regarded as one of the three best in the state, the others being Cleveland Stadium and Crosley Field, in Cincinnati. The baseball diamond, including Defense of the Americas W^ The proposals for defense of the American continent as accepted by the Inter-American conference held in Brazil, show that a high degree of unity has been attained by the nations of the American continent on this question.

It would have helped if people everywhere had been permitted to listen to foreign broadcasts, which would have corrected many misapprehensions existing in certain countries. People have been incited in some countries to support governments which planned for and started an aggressive war. This popular support was obtained largely by misleading propaganda. The people were given distorted views, and were led to feel that nations could gain by warlike policies, and a willingness to fight for such gains. If such propaganda could have been exposed and shown up in its true light by free discussion, it is unlikely that the people of any country could have been persuaded to support a war of aggression. ^Training And Education What is it we need most in life—training or education? We must have both training and education. The words are not synonomous. Nor is one alone enough.' Wherever training has been substituted for education, as in Communist Russia, Nazi Germany and Militaristic Japan, the world has been given robot men as' deadly as the robot bombs and as bent on destruction. ' - Education means "to lead out". It involves a widening of vision and a deepening of thought. It is creative and constructive. You can train an animal but you can educate only a man. Training has its-uses-in making customs become automatic habits. Just as the dictators.train for cruelty—so we can and have trained our citizens to observe the rights and well'being of others. Of course, there are exceptions—but they stand out because they are exceptions, not the. rule. Our homes should-be the training ground for good manners and cleanliness, for right living and right thinking. We can train ourselves in all the qualities" we most admire in others. We can make a habit "of being pundtual, courteous and considerate'. We can train ourselves into the habits of perseverence and concentration. : On the basis of sueh training we are ready for education. 'Education is not merely book learning. It is, understanding. It is the use of the trained mind- to learn, from people and circumstances" as' Well as from'books. It is the opening of new doors of thought, through which appear the vistas of our deepest ideals, our truest dreams. It requires steadfastness, perseverence, concentration to become educated. But those , who are truly educated find new pathways opening out before \ thtem, new ways in which they may* progress to a better way | of life. The untrained are the first to-be laid off. The un- ^ educated never rise.above themselves. ||j. # We need both training and education.

The highest praises and compliments have been paid by many, who claim it to be the most beautiful plant in this section of Ohio. The small group who worked and dreamed toward this end have seen- their project become a realiz-' ation. A great deal of work and planning has gene into this 18 acre plant. That all might enjoy this line field the trustees have 'spent many an hour, scouring the country side, to enable them to stretch the funds with which they were entrusted to the utmost, and they are to be thanked and compli-r ir.ented on their accomplishment: Waldo (Red) Streby who was in charge of the vast construction job, drew all the blue prints and made all the cContacts so that the Stadium might become a reality. Bill Hoag, chairman of the Jaycees drive to raise enough funds to complete the job, stated, they were coming to the people of North Canton and vicinity for funds to- put the final touches on our Memorial Stadium, which is dedicated to those who served in the armed forces, and in particular those who gave their lives that we might live and enjoy things such as this stadium.

IIS tareenwwn hxQX-Mm Flans IS tree-Hour Sean - - -ft AfSsS Little Rita Blubaugh, 2S month old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph L. Blubaugh Jr., is safe now in her parent's arms after a three- hour search for her Friday, when she wandered away from home, became tired and lay down for a nap, to rest. Canvassing the neighborhood after Rita failed to return home at lunch time, her parents enlisted the help of Marshall R. A. Smith, when they were unable to locate her. Clair Studer, vice president of the board of education and a neighbor of the Blubaughs, when called in, started to organize the hitherto haphazard search of the neighbor's. High school boys were sent for, to help tramp through the fields in the area and to ring doorbells in a house-to-house canvass. The radio station W-.C.M.W. was called and they, made several broadcasts -beginning about one o'clock. The search then began' in earnest as neighbors and fellow townspeople laid • down whatever, task they were doing and joined in the search. .... - .._. . . . _ . Andrew Marks, a neighbor of the — I'huLo Couric^y C.tiUon Hcimsitoi-y Blubaughs arrived home about 1:30 p. m., an engineer at the Hoover Company, he is also an instructor at the McKinley Airport and has his own plane there. He came home from the airport and finding the neighborhood in a turmoil, offered to get his plane and use it in the hunt for the child. Returning to the airport, he and George Swayze, airport manager, took off'at 3:25 p. m. in a plane with Mr. Sw.aj'ze at the controls. They spotted the child immediately. 'She was asleep in the high weeds. After making eight or nine passes to direct the searchers, they returned to the field. ' The ■whole flight lasted exactly 14 minutes. When the searchers reached Rita, she had awakened, probably from the roar of the plane. Unharmed except for a few scratches and sunburned face and legs, Rita wasn't frightened. Mr. and Mrs". Blubaugh have nothing but* praise for the people who aided -in the search, it was remarkable they said, how even.-strarigers volunteered to aid in the search for < the missing child. Plans to slow through Greentown on Route S to 35 miles per hour and through the school rone to 20 miles per hour have been given to the Stark County commissioners by the sheriff's office, Sgt. Don Brown, head of the county school patrol toid approximately 50 members of Greentown Civic Association Wednesday night, September 10. Sgt. Brown said plans also include signs on the highway at certain school hours. The speed zone at present through the village is 50 miles per hour. The association passed a resolution to have the commissioners place a traffic light at the school biv.lding. Dr. L. E. Anderson, president, presided, and E. T. Heald of the Stark County Historical Society was the guest speaker. Mr. Heald gave the history of Greentown. ttMQM en Individual speakers with volume control, which may be placed inside automobiles of patrons, will be included in equipment of the Automobile Drive-In Theater expected to open late this week on Route 8 north of North Canton.

Canvassing the neighborhood after Rita failed to return home at lunch time, her parents enlisted the help of Marshall R. A. Smith, when they were unable to locate her. Clair Studer, vice president of the board of education and a neighbor of the Blubaughs, when called in, started to organize the hitherto haphazard search of the neighbor's. High school boys were sent for, to help tramp through the fields in the area and to ring doorbells in a house-to-house canvass. The radio station W-.C.M.W. was called and they, made several broadcasts -beginning about one o'clock. The search then began' in earnest as neighbors and fellow townspeople laid • down whatever, task they were doing and joined in the search. .... - .._. . . . _ .

He came home from the airport and finding the neighborhood in a turmoil, offered to get his plane and use it in the hunt for the child. Returning to the airport, he and George Swayze, airport manager, took off'at 3:25 p. m. in a plane with Mr. Sw.aj'ze at the controls. They spotted the child immediately. 'She was asleep in the high weeds. After making eight or nine passes to direct the searchers, they returned to the field. ' The ■whole flight lasted exactly 14 minutes. When the searchers reached Rita, she had awakened, probably from the roar of the plane. Unharmed except for a few scratches and sunburned face and legs, Rita wasn't frightened. Mr. and Mrs". Blubaugh have nothing but* praise for the people who aided -in the search, it was remarkable they said, how even.-strarigers volunteered to aid in the search for < the missing child.
