CHURCHES READY TO. OBSERVE PENTECOST Sunday Morning, June 8, Pasr - tors Will 'Point Out To Congregations That the Need of Today Is To Recover, the Consciousness of Divine Power. WILL QUOTE THE MASTER Sunday morning, June 8, churches in every part of the world will celebrate the 1900th anniversary of Pentecost and the .founding of the Christian Church. In North Cantpn and other sections of .The Sun's territory elaborate plans are- under'way to make the day the .outstanding, day of the year. .'_. In' ^he-Community Christian, Zion Reformed and _ion Lutheran the pastors will take the stand—so The Sun has been informed—that it would be a dismal anniversairy of Pentecost if. the Church were simply to content itself with rehearsing the circumstances ..that attended the manifestation of the Holy Spirit long ago._ .."'■: Its Abiding Reality - "It is not a celebration of" .the first Pentecost," said a. clergyman, "but an actual present day experience of its abiding, reality'---that the Church is needing. - At the: beginning of the Church the fljaster made it clear that it would be. of'no use for His disciples to Start but to evangelize the : world until they themselves had experienced something of which, up to that moment, they were ignorant. They had heard Christ's teaching, but the transforming power of it had not laid hold of them. -'.'■' ST.PAU_S'GRADUATES GETDIPLOMASFRIDAY SENIORS ON TOUR __: u. .. , ■■■-.'■..

What we need' today, above all else, is to recover the consciousness of Divine power to which Pentecost bears witness," he said." SCHOOLTEACHERS HAROLD WUlhi'LKR The North Canton man, playing shortstop witlv the Indianapolis American association team, earned his salary in the game with Toledo on Sunday. -He had 21 chances in a double- header, nine outs and- 12 assists; a single:and three-bagger in one game; a three-bagsrer in the second game; double play unassisted, a stolen base; batted iii. two runs, and crossed the home plate "twice." At present he is leading' the American association irt two and three baggers. All of which looks mighty interesting to the .Jug- wigs in the two.major leagues.

He was introduced to the assembly by Mayor Orrin Wolf, a member of the American Legion Post of North Canton. Father Kotheimer said: Memorial Day Address Fellow Citizens: The inspiring ceremony, which we are witnessing today, is one of many being conducted in every community throughout this glorious land of ours. We, in common with all our fellow-citizens of tlie U. S. are gathered to do honor to the hero-dead. It is Memorial day! The observance of this day proves that America has a heart.

Although it looked like rain, the sun flashed at times, and the freshly: green trees and the flowers and the words of the orators made a complete and peaceful benediction, even thought the weather was chilly. Reverent and eloquent tributes were paid to the departed, from early morning until noon. Graves that have borne the winter snows and springtime rains, bloomed with flags and the flowers of May as the living—veteran and civilian—side by side, decked the last resting places of their beloved. Only in going to and from the cemeteries—streets crowded with motor cars—was bustle and hurry reflected.

Members of the American Legion post raised the Flag in The Hoover company park early in the morning, and flags. were placed in streets in the heart of the tbwn.

CHURCHES READY TO.
OBSERVE PENTECOST
Sunday Morning, June 8, Pasr
- tors Will 'Point Out To Congregations That the Need of
Today Is To Recover, the Consciousness of Divine Power.
WILL QUOTE THE MASTER
Sunday morning, June 8, churches
in every part of the world will celebrate the 1900th anniversary of Pentecost and the .founding of the Christian Church. In North Cantpn and
other sections of .The Sun's territory
elaborate plans are- under'way to
make the day the .outstanding, day of
the year. .'_.
In' ^he-Community Christian, Zion
Reformed and _ion Lutheran the pastors will take the stand—so The Sun
has been informed—that it would be
a dismal anniversairy of Pentecost if.
the Church were simply to content itself with rehearsing the circumstances
..that attended the manifestation of the
Holy Spirit long ago._ .."'■:
Its Abiding Reality -
"It is not a celebration of" .the first
Pentecost," said a. clergyman, "but an
actual present day experience of its
abiding, reality'---that the Church is
needing. - At the: beginning of the
Church the fljaster made it clear that
it would be. of'no use for His disciples
to Start but to evangelize the : world
until they themselves had experienced
something of which, up to that moment, they were ignorant. They had
heard Christ's teaching, but the transforming power of it had not laid hold
of them. -'.'■'

"It was futile-then, it would be fu-
tilfe how, for Christians - to proclaim
that teaching unless' the vital power
of it has been., felt in their- own lives.
What we need' today, above all else,
is to recover the consciousness of Divine power to which Pentecost bears
witness," he said."

HAROLD WUlhi'LKR
The North Canton man, playing
shortstop witlv the Indianapolis American association team, earned his salary in the game with Toledo on Sunday. -He had 21 chances in a double-
header, nine outs and- 12 assists; a
single:and three-bagger in one game;
a three-bagsrer in the second game;
double play unassisted, a stolen base;
batted iii. two runs, and crossed the
home plate "twice." At present he is
leading' the American association irt
two and three baggers. All of which
looks mighty interesting to the .Jug-

Memorial Day Address
Fellow Citizens: The inspiring ceremony, which we are witnessing today,
is one of many being conducted in
every community throughout this
glorious land of ours. We, in common with all our fellow-citizens of
tlie U. S. are gathered to do honor to
the hero-dead. It is Memorial day!
The observance of this day proves that
America has a heart. She does not
forget!
We Americans have been accused
of being materialistic, of being too
engrossed in business and enterprise
to heed the finer things of the soul.
The ceremony at which wc are gathered today challenges this accusation.
The wheels of industry are still, the
marts of trade are deserted. We are ... , . .„ , ,,,_,.

The "cities of the dead" were visited by hundreds of the living
throughout The Sun's district on
Memorial day, and heroes both of war
and peace were re-enshrined in mem- ■
orv. Although it looked like rain, the
sun flashed at times, and the freshly:
green trees and the flowers and the
words of the orators made a complete and peaceful benediction, even
thought the weather was chilly. Reverent and eloquent tributes were paid
to the departed, from early morning
until noon.
Graves that have borne the winter
snows and springtime rains, bloomed
with flags and the flowers of May as
the living—veteran and civilian—side
by side, decked the last resting places
of their beloved.
Only in going to and from the cemeteries—streets crowded with motor
cars—was bustle and hurry reflected.
Parade In North Canton
The program in North Canton was
carried out, witli slight deviation, according to the program printed in The
Sun last week.
Members of the American Legion
post raised the Flag in The Hoover
company park early in the morning,
and flags. were placed in streets in
the heart of the tbwn.
The parade included many children
from the public schools and St. Paul's
school, and the music was furnished
by the Legion Drum and Bugle Corps
and The Hoover Band.
Children Sing
The children sang in St. Paul's cemetery, where the exercises were in
charge of Earl Herbruck, assisted by
John Moye, and a complement of Legionnaires from the local post. Commander Gordon C. Curry was absent,
being at the home of his" parents, Dr.
and Mrs. Curry, in Louisville, Ky. The
marshal of the day was Arthur KoVp^
