PLAY WENT SUING
"Beyond ifhe Horizon" Pleased a Critical Audience Last Ui^ht.
"Beyond the Horizoia;" :a idrama of
American life, written by Eugene
O'Neil, :and directed by Dr. John W.
Timen, was the offering by The Lit-
lerary 'Theatre in the ;auditorium of
Lehman high schord • last night
■(Tuesday). As is customary, a critical audience sat and watched the performers, and then broke.into applause.
It takes something mare than the "average" to bring the ;palms together
ataia Literary Theatre tiffering, and
when the company -struck its stride,
Which it did from the first, the know-
irigss^s knew that "Beyond the Horizon" was a pronounced success. Dr.
T,imen, an actor of imneh.dbility, de-
sferves considerable ^credit for the
^splendid showing of the cast, although when congratulated after the
performance, he .-shrugged his
shoulders, smiled and-quietly observed,
"I had the material."
The story deals with rthe fgrm and
the sea, and the writer tot.-this brief
review having known .btfth, failed to
<detaet:anything of ithe .seaman on the
farm or the landsman son the sea.
Eadh.had its place and remained there
The lines were ^perfect :and the
smoothness of the performance contributed much to tihe histrionic glory
ioT the'cast. All in all, it reflected the
greatest credit on fotaducai-;and players.
Just before the final uairtain the
statement was made by one of the
officials of The Literary Theatre that
•'.Trad Hall took, the place of-another,
and !he :had only oite week in which
to learn his lines." Applause .-greeted
this announcement, showing that
Fredas work stood the acid test. .

HONORED WITH OFFICE
J. Herman Voneman and F. J. Hinkel Are H. N. Society Leaders.
North Canton received more than
"recognition" on Sunday at a meeting
of the Holy Name Society of Northeastern Ohio in Akroij. This good old
town captured two" of the principal
offices in an election attended by several thousand delegates, and when the
announcement was made that J. Herman Voneman was elected vice-president and F. J. Hinkel, treauier, because they were "representative citizens who stand for lall that is good
in church, business or town affairs"
the applause was loud and prolonged.
When it is taken into, consideration
that many churches in the northeastern district contain mox-e than 1000
members .of the Holy Name society
the sction of the convention is all the
more pleasing- in choosing two men
representing a church having about
200 members  of the society.
The Sun takes this occasion.to extend its congratulations to Mr. Voneman and Mr. Hinkel.' They are citizens of sterling worth, ever ready to
jump in and do a large share of work
for the good of the whole community.
There's nothing of the "Let George
do it" in their makeup, as this newspaper well knows.
GIRLS TIED SCORE
But Boys Dropped Their First League
.   Game To Canal Fulton.
North -Canton high went to Canal
Fulton on Friday evening for their
first league basketball games. The
girls' game was close and hard fought
throughout, Tjut they were unable to
break the tie after playing overtime
so the soore remained" 9 to 9.
Boys  Drop  One
The North Canton boys took the
lead in the second game, but held it
only during the fiAjt quarter. Their
teamwork was good, but they couldn't
make the points, even though they
had many chances to score. Canal
■Fulton won, 18 to 9.

Both teams will play a good game
on Friday night at 7:30 against North

Why I Should Attend School

We should attend school, because
without education we would be a helpless Jot, such as the people of Turkey* Russia or Africa. We .have to

- If you are interested in seeing a
good basketball game be sure and
come to the Community Building this
Wednesday evening. The Communhy
team plays the Canjpn Moose. In the
first game of the series the Moose
succeeded in winning from the local
boys, but since then the hoys have
shown a much improved style of play,
so look for a win tonight.
Next Saturday evening at 7.15 the
B. Community team plays its first
game. This is a fine group of young
players and they are going to show
you a real game of basketball. Come
out and help them start off right. The
main attraction for the evening is a
game between the Community team
and a Waynesburg team. This should
be a fast team and the game promises to be a good one. The local boys
are improving every game, so if you
don't want to miss seeing some first
class playing you will be in your seat
when the whistle blows on both Wednesday and  Saturday nights.
Last Wednesday the second round
of the church league was played off.
This resulted in victories for the Reformed and Christian church teams.
Both of these teams have shown exceptionally well so far and there is
bound to be a real battle when they
meet each other Wednesday night.
In the Junior league the games weie
all fast and close and the Reformed
and Christian churches succeeded in
carrying off the honors here too. Saturday they play against each other.
I would say that the battle will be
a nice one. Some of you older folks
that like to see young fellows play
clean and hard: come out next week
and see this game. Besides that there
is bound to be a hot time when the
forces, of St. Paul's clash with the
Representatives, of the Community.

MAYOR ASKS PUBLIC
TO ASSIST DISABLED
Buy a Forget-Me-Not, He Says,
and Help Make It Easier For
the Young Men Who Crossed
the Ocean In Our Defence.
CHANCE FOR ALL TO HELP
To the Citizens of North Canton:
John VV. Mahan, national commander
of the Disabled American Veterans
has addressed a letter to me in which
he announces that the organization
"is again preparing for the annual
Forget-Me-Not Appeal of the Disabled American Veterans of the V/orld
War, the only Congressionally recognized organization of wounded and
disabled American World War veterans. Bearing the hearty endorsement
of President Coolidge and other national and state leaders, this annual
activity in behalf of the maimed war
veterans is conducted throughout the
United States; for the actual relief, 4
welfare, legislative, hospitalization,
employment and rehabilitation assistance of those who bear the scars and
serious ills  of war."
He asks me, as Mayor of North
Canton, to enlist the services of the
people in furthering the sale of For--
get-Me-Nots. It is in grateful memory of the services of the boys whom
we sent to France that I call upon
the people to help in every way this
most worthy cause. Our fraternal or-,
ganizations, our women's clubs, our
churches and citizens generally can
not spend I heir time or money in a
better cause than assisting the disabled  American  soldier.

THE DEATH -ROLL
B. F. Rennals Was a Veteran of the
Civil War and Widely Known.
THE FORGET-ME-NOT SPEAKS
Little pale blossom of tint sky-blue,
Why are you worn today?
Why is everyone buying you?
What do you stand for, pray?
I stand for a cross in Flanders' field
And the Marne, and the Wood of Belleau;
For the khaki line that would not yield—
For the prayer from lips that Death has
sealed—
I stand for wounds that have not healed,
And hospital beds in a row.
I stand for horrors and wounds and scars,
For bodies shattered and torn;
For battlefields reeking beneath the stars
With'sacrifice to the War-God Mars;
For an end to the reign of Kings and Czars;
And for mothers and wives that mourn.
For the mem'ry of warriors racked with pain,
Mangled while facing the foe;
Belgian soil bears a crimson stain
Where they offered their all, unthinking
of gain,' "'",;'
