New Season? columbus, ouro VOL. 30 NO. 51 NORTH CANTON, OHIO, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1955 7c PER COPY School Enrollment Increases 200 What Is Your Price? What is your price? Ask that of any man, and the chances are you'll get an indignant answer "I. don't wear a price tag. I'm not for sale." But — unfortunately too many people have a price iof some sort. They wouldn't take a money bribe — fewer people do than is realized. Hc'Wever, they do ask favors — and return them. They don't speak out when they should, for fear of offending someone of importance to them. They don't want to "hurt people's feelings," by telling a bold unpleasant truth. They are willing to compromise with issues in order to gain a point. They are warped by prejudices and swayed by their likes and dislikes. The man without a price, the incorruptible man, is a man above price. He has an anchor in his principles. He is not moved by fear or favor. He stands on truth as he sees it, and he is strong in the hour of crisis. He is dependable in both small and large things. His word is good because it is never given carelessly. The incorruptible man is not afraid. He will speak out against evil wherever it exists. But he will .not condemn his fellow man without due cause — and then never misjudge a group by the action or .opinions of one man. He holds no unreasoning prejudices. He treats his fellow men as individuals and respects their beliefs as he demands respect for his own. The only aristocracy he recognizes is the aristocracy of character, of gitod thoughts and good manners. He neither looks d'ow,n at or up to his neighbor. He is tolerant of everything except intolerance. Given a nation of incorruptible men and the world could be a world at peace. The world will always follow the S.tr.9ug.mait,Jand.the.injeQrruptibJi&;iijan has an inner strength tfiat is never,- more apparen-tythan in the hour of adversity. .He. is like the city founded upon a rock. The incorruptible man is the honor, and the base, of a good community or a great nation. The opening of school last week brought an increase of 200 pupils over the opening enrollment in 1954. The enrollment figures as announced by Superintendent E. R. Malone today showed a total of 1895 pupils in attendance. Superintendent Malone had earlier predicted a total of 1875 based upon pre-registration. A comparison with the September 1954 enrollment show that the elementary school Increased 129 and the high school 71. To accommodate this increase, it was necessary to change the high school schedule so that one hour periods could be held in the morning when all laboratory clashes as well as Home Econo- r.i.cs and Industrial Arts could be scheduled. The afternoon session is composed of five 45-min- ute periods with only one half- hour for lunch. Two additional teachers were added to the high school staff. In the elementary school, it was necessary to increase the size of classes. Th.s places especially large groups in grades .two, five, and six- One additional teacher was added in the elementary grades. The increased enrollment also affected bus transportation requiring -an additional bus. Six beses are now operating to transport pupils. Nsflth Canton P-T .A.

Small Gains First
In the light of recent history, it is probably well to be
wary of the "new .Look" in the Soviet Union's relation with
the West. It is on the side of wisdom to demand concrete
action toward settlement of some of the outstanding issues
that now threaten the peace, as proof that there is substance
behind the "new look".
Yet it is well not to overlook some actualities that have
resulted from the Soviet show of friendliness. The West can
be grateful that the Iron Curtain has been lifted, however
slightly, and that there is now some interchange of peoples
between the two great political systems of the world.
There is no doubt that people comparing the two systems will be impressed with the West. Whatever their
rank or ideology, visitors from behind the Iron Curtain
might be favorably disposed toward the freedom and abundance of any democratic nation, whether in Western Europe
or the United States, especially when compared with the restrictions and scarcities of their native .lands.
There is reason to be grateful, too, for the Kremlin's
slight relaxation of its controls over satellite states. As a
result the satellites appear to be in flux, not quite sure what
the future holds. Meanwhile they are establishing better relations with the West.
These may not be vast accomplishments, but they do
