PRAYER FOR PEACE Thanksgiving 1936 In many homes across the nation this Thanksgiving Day, there will be a vacant seat at the dinner table. It seems like yesterday, when the high chair was put up in the attic, and he sat down at the table for the first time, propped up with a few pillows. As he began to grow tall, he talked about many things. He would be one day, a policeman or space scientist, professional ballplayer or a college professor. Tne world was his oyster. His adolescent years passed quickly - high school days have come and gone - and suddenly overnight he became a man - for Uncle Sam beckoned and approved. His turkey dinner with all the fixings will not be the same as ours. The Viet Cong may not wait. We'll m ss his infectious grin - his kidding around with the rest of the family - no, he is on serious buriness now. T6 those families with the empty chair - words are inadequate to express the feelings of a family separated by war. What all of us can do, when we sit down to that traditional Thanksgiving Day feast, is to pause - give thanks to the Supreme Being and pray that a .safe return may be granted to those absent and that peace will come to the world. And as George Washington proposed in his Thanksgiving Day proclamation in 1789 thanks for constitutional government, let us hope that the governments of the world may become servants and not masters of the people. Blessings To Count To a boy of, .say, 10 summers, the essence of Thanksgiving may seem to be that here is a day when absolutely unlimited stuffing of the inner boy is not merely permitted but encouraged. He remembers' that on this gladsome occasion in the past such ambrosia as roast turkey ana d easing, mashed potatoes swimming in gravy, hot rolls and cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie and all the rest of it have been set before him without stint and with admonitions not to be greedy. Adults may regard this gustatory outlook with tolerant amusement. Before so indulging themselves, atLlts ought to examine their own attitudes toward Thanksg v ng. It may turn cut that these are not much of a cut above the small boy's, after all. Most adults, to be sure, no longer think of this holiday as an excuse to make pigs of themselves at the t bla. Still, eating bulks large among them both as an activity and as a subject for conversation. There also is much talk of the clay's football game or whatever other entertainnrnt is to be provided. At a rough estimate, these things take precedence over consideration of" Thanksgiving as a holy day at a ration of about 90 to one. j When it comes to giving thanks, America has an embarrassment of riches. It is not enough to say that we live in a society of abundance; that is an inadequate word to! describe all the good things that most of us take for gr; nt-| ed as a part of our daily lives. It becomes more of an imaginative effort, each succeeding year, to relate our affluent people to the beleagured little group which offered thanks to God for the blessings of harvest and survival more than three centuries ago. It does not follow that there is less reason for Thanksgiving Day now than in the past; quite the contrary. It still behooves us to express gratitude for our material wealth, so much in contrast to the poverty that afflicts vast rtgions ,of the earth. And we have much else to be thankful for. Thanksgiving is a time for companionship and lau liter, one of the very best holidays of all the year. It is also a time to count our blessings, which are, many, and give heartfelt thanks for them. It was these other things on which President Johnson concentrated in his proclamation. Above all, he declared, Americans can be grateful that they comprise a nation "rich and strong in the cause of liberty and justice." We should indeed give thanks for that, and resolve to be wortny of our inheritance. Truth The Time Saver Maybe that is why a man speaking the truth is so impressive. There is strength and force back of his reunarKS that puts them across. When I was, growing up a very wise man once said to me rather whimsically that he "wasn't against lying, but he felt people should find out their lying capacity just as they found out their liquor capacity and stick to it. That he had learned in college that his capacity was .two and a haf li s and, as he couldn't remember any more than that; he always kept within that margin. He gave as his reason that he was intrinsically a lazy man - and he couldn't be bothered trying to remember what he had said. So he told the truth. Lincoln brought out another important fact about truth i "Truth is generally the best vindication against slander," There was probably no man against whom thpre, w re more slurs and slanders, yet he remained unembittered to the end - because he had the defense of truth. If you speak the truth and live the truth, there need be no fear in your life. You do not have to rely on tne mirage of colored facts or rainbow.fancies. You know wh"t you believe and why. You are free to determine your actions because you hold to a principle* -_> Vol. 41 — No. 10 2 Sections—12 Pages NORTH CANTON, OHIO, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1966 tOe per copy M-baM- Yuletide Signs Springing Up Around the City Even if Thanksgiving Day Thursday and the first Advent Sunday coming up were not sign enough that the holiday season is fast approaching, other tra- lilional heralds make the fact apparent.

Final Vote May Be Dec 19 Mr. Schiltz said "we are trying to follow the normal procedure we would follow with any other legislation." This means we will hold three separate meetings, the first of these Nov. 28, and the next regular one Dec 12 with the date of £he> final December meeting uncertain due the Christmas week. Council may meet Dec. 19 and the quickest final action that could be taken would be at that date, Mr. Schiltz said. It must then wait 30 days before becoming law, the statement reminded. In order for it to be effective at the third reading, it would have to be acted at the third reading and this would take a six out «f seven Yes vote from council. The statement also expressed the hope that the report from Havens and Emerson on the study of the entire city sewage system plus the feasibility of building our own plant, will be completed before final passage of pending proposed agreement. A copy of the agreement is available for public inspection at city hall by checking with Lester L. Braucher, clerk of council.

Now Face Council Action Year Abroad Ends Soon For Sharyl And Rosemary iNorth Canton's two good-will ambassadors to the land "down-under", Sharyl Weeks and Rosemary Shahan, are in the final weeks of a year-long stay in Australia as exchange s+udents and will be back home for the Christmas holidays with family and friends. Sharyl, daughter of the Llovd Weeks of 5663 Circle Hill Dr. NW will be returning on the 4:08 p.m. United flight on Wednesday, Dec. 21, at Akron - Canton Airport her mother reports. She'll leave there on Tuesday (really Monday here) and pickup that day she lost last January, arriving in San Francisco late Tuesday. She will layover there for the night before the crosscountry trip. Rosemary, daughter of the \rthur Shahans of 420 Donner Rd. SW, will leave Australia on Dec. 10. She plans to stop-over for a few days in Aukland, New Zealand and Fiji for a brief Rotary - arranged visit before "lying home in time for Christmas here. For those who've come in late in this fairy - tale jouney for 'hese two high school youngsters, ■"Sharyl has been in Wynnum Manley, near Brisbane, under sponsorship of North Canton. Rotary Club and Rosemary, mder district Rotary sponsorship, has spent the year in Sur- "er's Paradise, .near Southport on \ustralia's Gold Coast. They have lived with various Rotary Club families while there, he Colin Linds in Wynnum be- "ng Sharyl's latest hosts and the Tohn Mcllwalne family of Surfer's Paradise host to Rosemary now. They'll have adventursome stories to tell for both have trav- led extensively during their stay. Sharyl, finished with her school work, is currently on a trip to the capital city 6f Can* berra as well as Sydney, Mel'' bourne and Tasmania, all under Rotary arrangements. Her last day in school was highlighted when the head master of the school presented her with a solid gold replica of a (honor student) badge inscribed "from the Wynnum State High School seniors, 1966." Both girls will be returning to classes at Hoover after the holidays, Sharyl for her second sem- ster junior year and Rosemary for the final semester of her senior year. They had taken some •-equired first semester work be*- fore they left for Australia. Rosemary carried six subiects at the Southport Public State High , School, taking geography, economics and art to give her a real, insight into Australian life, as well as the regular English and modern and ancient history. Both will be making quite a •transition, weather-wise, as they did last January in reverse, for they'll be coming from Australia's sub-tropic warm springtime into our winter season. They'll, have much to relate- - some on the unbelieveable side. An example of the latter might be Rosemary's recent note to her parents telling of the Gold Coast meter maids. Unlike their counterparts in this country, these young women are the delight of motorists for they put money in expired parking meters to avoid parking vio-. lations and they do it clad ONLY in gold bikinis. Its a promotion 6f the Sui-fer's Paradise Progress Association, a merchant's group Rosemary reports and she's tafc en slide pictures to prove it North Canton Planning Commission recommended Monday night that City Council adopt proposed new subdivision regulations prepared by the Stark County Regional Planning Commission and amended by the local planners. The special session in Council Chambers was called to discuss a controversial clause which would have prohibited access to the street on lots facing major thoroughfares. After consultation with the Regional Planning Commission, the planners decided to leave the decision on such access to the local Planning Commission after study of individual cases. A public hearing on thf» proposed regulations must now be set by Council. After the hearing, Council may take action in ordinance form. Copies are available for inspection at City Hall. The regulations would control the development of major streets and thoroughfares, parks and other open public grounds in the City and within a specified area outside its corporate limits. A preliminary and a final map of each tract of land for a subdivision would have to be presented to Planning Commission. The method of preparing these is outlined. Design standards would be applied to streets, blocks, lots, easements, and public open space. Street standards would be concerned with location, extent, width, grade and character of each street. Dead end streets or cul-de-sacs would be discouraged. Block lengths would be limited to 1400 feet. A minimum of five percent of (Continued on Page 5) . INDIAN PRINCES RITUAL.

They have lived with various Rotary Club families while there, he Colin Linds in Wynnum be- "ng Sharyl's latest hosts and the Tohn Mcllwalne family of Surfer's Paradise host to Rosemary now. They'll have adventursome stories to tell for both have trav- led extensively during their stay. Sharyl, finished with her school work, is currently on a trip to the capital city 6f Can* berra as well as Sydney, Mel'' bourne and Tasmania, all under Rotary arrangements. Her last day in school was highlighted when the head master of the school presented her with a solid gold replica of a (honor student) badge inscribed "from the Wynnum State High School seniors, 1966." Both girls will be returning to classes at Hoover after the holidays, Sharyl for her second sem- ster junior year and Rosemary for the final semester of her senior year. They had taken some •-equired first semester work be*- fore they left for Australia.

The special session in Council Chambers was called to discuss a controversial clause which would have prohibited access to the street on lots facing major thoroughfares. After consultation with the Regional Planning Commission, the planners decided to leave the decision on such access to the local Planning Commission after study of individual cases. A public hearing on thf» proposed regulations must now be set by Council. After the hearing, Council may take action in ordinance form. Copies are available for inspection at City Hall. The regulations would control the development of major streets and thoroughfares, parks and other open public grounds in the City and within a specified area outside its corporate limits. A preliminary and a final map of each tract of land for a subdivision would have to be presented to Planning Commission. The method of preparing these is outlined. Design standards would be applied to streets, blocks, lots, easements, and public open space. Street standards would be concerned with location, extent, width, grade and character of each street.
