Grand. COMMJITi BUILDING Boy Scouts At the Scouts' regular meeting on Monday evening the two patrols reported the progress so far in their plans. The Stag patrol, under Clair Shisler, worked all day Saturday at the Reservation. The boys have reset one stove ancl started building shutters for the windows. They plan to make tho cabin clean, dry and warm enough to enable Scouts to enjoy all kinds of weather. Since Canton Scouts also use the cabin, the fellows fee^ that they are doing a ser- vice tn&rt. ibi- othefa as well, as, themselves. The Flying Eagki patrol is doing its stuff in the Northwest woods. On Saturday Oberlin and Lantry set a trail for others to follow, ancl they did a nice job< Their marks and signs led to many interesting observations. After a good self-cooked meal the fellows got busy ancl constructed a lean-to to serve as shelter for overnight hikes. The meeting included the usual items and ended with the patrol competition for points. The Flying Eagle patrol won the under-dog by about 30 points, so the rest of the troop will enjoy beans next Monday. Girls' Clubs Miss Young led the discussion at the meeting of the J. S. F. club Monday night. Her topic was "Life Work." She emphasized an unusual point of view, and gave the girls this motto: "Be yourself at your best all the time." The Triangle club enjoyed a very successful valentine party at the home of Miss Harsh Thursday afternoon. The girls played appropriate games, held a heart spelling contest, worked Valentine puzzles, and showed their marksmanship at throwing "through the heart." If the girls continue to be so deadly in aiming at hearts they wil always "get their man." At 5:30 dainty but "hearty" refreshments were served. As a surprise the committee served pretty heart cups which they had made themselves, filled with candy hearts and nuts. The committee in charge of program and refreshments were Catherine Foltz, Barbara Shaeffer, Mildred Freeze, Lucille Mills, Sarah Ball. . Ibaisaics . The Ibaisaic team suffered defeat jn the first game of the season at the hands, of the. First Presbyterian Juniors. The local girls showed bet- [Continued on page five] PLAY ON SATURDAY W. H. HOOVER CLASS TAKES A NIGHT OFF Hear Short Speeches, Good Singing and Music, Partake of Supper and See a Wonderful Display of Gaudy Neckties. W. E. HILL GETS A PRIZE The men's class of the Community Christian church, taught by W. H. Hoover, held a stag affair in the basement of the church on Mondav night, and to President W. J. Evans and his committee must go the credit for the program. They arranged an excellent "menu" and the large crowd present enjoyed to the full the singing, music, short speeches ancl the luncheon. Ellis Schiltz, past president of the class, had insisted that,, a nice new Easter necktie b'e presented to the man wearing the gaudiest tie on Monday night, and not being desirous of crossing the genial Ellis, the class agreed to the proposition. When they saw the harvest, many of the men were ready to slay Ellis, but a few words from President Evans calmed them. Hill Wins the Prize W. E. Hill won the prize. He wore a necktie in the shape of a -bow and it contained so many colors that even Ellis Schiltz was startled. The prize, by the way, was a dark and white four-in-hand. If W. E. puts that one on and takes it for an airing his wife will lie justified in asking for a legal separation. Let's fasten the crime where it belongs! Ellis Schiltz bought the prize! And it is so "loud" it actually yells. Yet some persons say, "Hasn't Ellis exquisite taste, especially in. neckties?" This writer spoke to Mr. Schiltz gently, oh, so gently, about the enormity of the crime of flaunting so much color in a closed building. He answered thusly: "Forget that it is winter and let your fears take holiday. You must have a poor sense of delicate and harmonious color relations if you cannot feel the warm beauty of these neckties." He waved liis hand grandly and strutted -majestically.,. Greatly subdued, We quietly took our seat\. We know when our soup is^colch Lee T. Lewis sported a hifty-look- ing tie, so did Dudley Dillin, R. L. Kelly, W. E. Harsh and Pastor Cossaboom. There were others, but this writer's eyes began to "water" after looking at the "artistic" array, and he sneaked over to Boss Hoover, expecting a little sympathy, but quickly backed off. The "Boss" was wearing one! To Hold More Meetings President Evans, L. T. Lewis ancl W. E. Harsh spoke in favor of holding a meeting each month, except in summer, and the class voted "yea." So from now on there will be something doing every thirty days until warm weather sets in. W. H. Hoover's Address In his address W. H. Hoover reminded his hearers that he had been teaching the class fifty years, perhaps a few years longer, and he was proud of the fellowship he'found in the class. He spoke of the power of men to do good in every community, and asserted that.our responsibility makes demands upon us we should do our best to meet. He said he liked to keep all memories of delight ancl beauty and a friendly spirit, at the front of his recollection. He declared that he could not tell them with what deep feelings his heart is stirred when he sees his class-room filled on a Sunday morning', and he liked to share with others tlie fellowship he feels. He saicl that if one looks long enough and steadily enough at the bright side of life he will be convinced that the side he is looking at is the true side. Fine Entertainment President Evans introduced Chick Jones, Elmer Lighthizer, William Delashmutt, William Stark and Mr. Haydon, the latter of Canton. Tlie individual singing of lighthizer ancl Stark was greatly appreciated, as was the music ancl singing of the five as a "company." The story of Haydon (he was posing as an Italian) created much laughter. Each young man added much to the pleasure of the evening and each was vigorously applauded. The "eats" were high class and the men made many complimentary remarks concerning them. Bob Willigmann was gently reminded by one of his friends that he "is not as young as he used to be." "I'm a good judge of what is good for me," said Bob, "and I never take advice at meal time." He was still busy eating when this writer took his departure, and according to Bill Evans on Tuesday morning, "Bob boosted the electric light bill last night. No .one hsd-the nerye to turn. oft the lights while he was eating, and I understand the milk men were serving their customers when Bob emerged from the basement and made a dive for home to be in time for breakfast." AT BANQUET TABLE Officers and Teachers- of Zion Reformed Churcjr Enjoy Life. On Monday evening at.0:30 the officers ancl teachers!of Zion Reformed Sunday-school assei*pBIed in the church dining rooms and partook of the many good things provided and arranged by the lady members. of the board. Everyone present; twill testify that they did themselves credit. Afterwards a brief business session presided over by tlie superintendent, was held, when some-important; items of business were cared for. An address was ,^'elivered by William Daberko of-Canton. Mr. Daberko has had a broad 'experience in Sunday-school work, having served for 25 years as superintendent of First Reformed Sunday-school ,of Canton. He brought us forciby in an entertaining manner many practical truths concerning the teacher's responsibility to the church. The meeting was then turned over to Rev. E. M. Beck, who outlined his plan of evangelistic campaign for the winter. The Sunday-school orchestra was present as the guests of the evening,- making a total of .fifty-eight. n. c. pIlSrary New Books Are Arriving Daily In the Community Building.

On Friday, February 10, Samuel was' 04 years young. We know this is a trite expression, but in his case it holds good. The years have dealt lightly with Samuel Sheets.

GOOD MUSIC AND SINGING
A three-act comedy drama will be
presented by the St. Paul-Players of
North Canton on Monday and Tuesday, Feb. 20 and 21 in St. Paul's auditorium.
* The play i& the most pretentious,
as lar as the need lor histrionic ability, is concerned, that the St. Paul's
Players have ever attempted. Accordingly, there have been several
shiftings of cast and dozens of rehearsals with a view of making this
presentation worthy of the reputation acquired through past performances. The Players have been fortunate in obtaining several very valuable additions in membership* duruig
the past year, several of whom will
be seen for the first time in the cast
of "My Irish Rose."
Among others may be mentioned
particularly Mrs. Lou Joyce. Mrs.
Joyce i% an elocutionist of rare ability and has had considerable stage
experience. She is assistant directress and has done most of the coaching, besides taking one of the roles.
Miss Gertrude JtcCarty is playing the
title role and seems to be fitted for
the part. Ralph Moose is the lead
playing opposite Miss McCarty.
A capacity house is expected for
both presentations. General admission; is fifty cents, with'reserved seats
fifteen- cents extra. These reserved
seats have..beeh placed on sale at
Burky's drug store.
An added attraction will be the Columbia Quartet,, which will sing appropriate nnmbters between the acts.
The St. Paul's Placers Orchestra,
under the direction of Mrs. A. M.
Hickey, will furnish the music. Opening number at 8:15 p. m. sharp.

COMMJITi BUILDING
Boy Scouts
At the Scouts' regular meeting on
Monday evening the two patrols reported the progress so far in their
plans. The Stag patrol, under Clair
Shisler, worked all day Saturday at
the Reservation. The boys have reset one stove ancl started building
shutters for the windows. They plan
to make tho cabin clean, dry and
warm enough to enable Scouts to enjoy all kinds of weather. Since Canton Scouts also use the cabin, the fellows fee^ that they are doing a ser-
vice tn&rt. ibi- othefa as well, as, themselves. The Flying Eagki patrol is
doing its stuff in the Northwest
woods.
On Saturday Oberlin and Lantry
set a trail for others to follow, ancl
they did a nice job< Their marks and
signs led to many interesting observations. After a good self-cooked
meal the fellows got busy ancl constructed a lean-to to serve as shelter
for overnight hikes.
The meeting included the usual
items and ended with the patrol competition for points. The Flying Eagle
patrol won the under-dog by about 30
points, so the rest of the troop will
enjoy beans next Monday.
Girls' Clubs
Miss Young led the discussion at
the meeting of the J. S. F. club Monday night. Her topic was "Life
Work." She emphasized an unusual
point of view, and gave the girls this
motto: "Be yourself at your best all
the time."
The Triangle club enjoyed a very
successful valentine party at the home
of Miss Harsh Thursday afternoon.
The girls played appropriate games,
held a heart spelling contest, worked
Valentine puzzles, and showed their
marksmanship at throwing "through
the heart." If the girls continue to
be so deadly in aiming at hearts they
wil always "get their man." At 5:30
dainty but "hearty" refreshments
were served. As a surprise the committee served pretty heart cups which
they had made themselves, filled with
candy hearts and nuts. The committee in charge of program and refreshments were Catherine Foltz, Barbara
Shaeffer, Mildred Freeze, Lucille
Mills, Sarah Ball. .

PLAY ON SATURDAY
W. H. HOOVER CLASS
TAKES A NIGHT OFF
Hear Short Speeches, Good Singing and Music, Partake of
Supper and See a Wonderful
Display of Gaudy Neckties.
W. E. HILL GETS A PRIZE
The men's class of the Community
Christian church, taught by W. H.
Hoover, held a stag affair in the basement of the church on Mondav night,
and to President W. J. Evans and his
committee must go the credit for the
program. They arranged an excellent
"menu" and the large crowd present
enjoyed to the full the singing, music,
short speeches ancl the luncheon.
Ellis Schiltz, past president of the
class, had insisted that,, a nice new
Easter necktie b'e presented to the
man wearing the gaudiest tie on Monday night, and not being desirous of
crossing the genial Ellis, the class
agreed to the proposition. When they
saw the harvest, many of the men
were ready to slay Ellis, but a few
words from President Evans calmed
them.
Hill Wins the Prize
W. E. Hill won the prize. He wore
a necktie in the shape of a -bow and
it contained so many colors that even
Ellis Schiltz was startled. The prize,
by the way, was a dark and white
four-in-hand. If W. E. puts that one
on and takes it for an airing his wife
will lie justified in asking for a legal
separation.
Let's fasten the crime where it belongs! Ellis Schiltz bought the prize!
And it is so "loud" it actually yells.
Yet some persons say, "Hasn't Ellis
exquisite taste, especially in. neckties?"
This writer spoke to Mr. Schiltz
gently, oh, so gently, about the enormity of the crime of flaunting so much
color in a closed building. He answered thusly:
"Forget that it is winter and let
your fears take holiday. You must
have a poor sense of delicate and harmonious color relations if you cannot feel the warm beauty of these
neckties." He waved liis hand grandly
and strutted -majestically.,. Greatly
subdued, We quietly took our seat\. We
know when our soup is^colch
Lee T. Lewis sported a hifty-look-
ing tie, so did Dudley Dillin, R. L.
Kelly, W. E. Harsh and Pastor Cossaboom. There were others, but this
writer's eyes began to "water" after
looking at the "artistic" array, and
he sneaked over to Boss Hoover, expecting a little sympathy, but quickly
backed off. The "Boss" was wearing
one!
To Hold More Meetings
President Evans, L. T. Lewis ancl
W. E. Harsh spoke in favor of holding a meeting each month, except in
summer, and the class voted "yea."
So from now on there will be something doing every thirty days until
warm weather sets in.
W. H. Hoover's Address
In his address W. H. Hoover reminded his hearers that he had been
teaching the class fifty years, perhaps
a few years longer, and he was proud
of the fellowship he'found in the
class. He spoke of the power of men
to do good in every community, and
asserted that.our responsibility makes
demands upon us we should do our
best to meet. He said he liked to keep
all memories of delight ancl beauty
and a friendly spirit, at the front of
his recollection.
He declared that he could not tell
them with what deep feelings his
heart is stirred when he sees his
class-room filled on a Sunday morning', and he liked to share with others
tlie fellowship he feels. He saicl that
if one looks long enough and steadily
enough at the bright side of life he
will be convinced that the side he is
looking at is the true side.
Fine Entertainment
President Evans introduced Chick
Jones, Elmer Lighthizer, William
Delashmutt, William Stark and Mr.
Haydon, the latter of Canton. Tlie
individual singing of lighthizer ancl
Stark was greatly appreciated, as
was the music ancl singing of the five
as a "company." The story of Haydon (he was posing as an Italian)
created much laughter. Each young
man added much to the pleasure of
the evening and each was vigorously
applauded.
The "eats" were high class and the
men made many complimentary remarks concerning them. Bob Willigmann was gently reminded by one of
his friends that he "is not as young
as he used to be."
"I'm a good judge of what is good
for me," said Bob, "and I never take
advice at meal time." He was still
busy eating when this writer took his
departure, and according to Bill
Evans on Tuesday morning, "Bob
boosted the electric light bill last
night. No .one hsd-the nerye to turn.
oft the lights while he was eating, and
I understand the milk men were serving their customers when Bob emerged from the basement and made a dive
for home to be in time for breakfast."
AT BANQUET TABLE
Officers and Teachers- of Zion Reformed Churcjr Enjoy Life.
On Monday evening at.0:30 the officers ancl teachers!of Zion Reformed
Sunday-school assei*pBIed in the church
dining rooms and partook of the many
good things provided and arranged by
the lady members. of the board.
Everyone present; twill testify that
they did themselves credit.
Afterwards a brief business session
presided over by tlie superintendent,
was held, when some-important; items
of business were cared for.
An address was ,^'elivered by William Daberko of-Canton. Mr. Daberko
has had a broad 'experience in Sunday-school work, having served for 25
years as superintendent of First Reformed Sunday-school ,of Canton. He
brought us forciby in an entertaining
manner many practical truths concerning the teacher's responsibility to
the church.
The meeting was then turned over
to Rev. E. M. Beck, who outlined his
plan of evangelistic campaign for the
winter.
The Sunday-school orchestra was
present as the guests of the evening,-
making a total of .fifty-eight.
