ADVISES GRADUATE:
'DISCOVER YOURSELF'
Dean W. R. Westhafer of the
College of Wooster In Address
To Seniors of N. C. Hi Tells
Them To Stay Away From
Self-Pity and Dig For Facts.
MUST KNOW YOUR SUBJECT
Commencement exercises were held
in the high school auditorium on
Charlotte street on Friday night.
Parents, relatives and friends of the
graduates filled the room and applauded the high school orchestra under the direction of Miss Ruth Cogan.
The oil'erings were "The Trumpeter,"
by H. Engleman and "Bridal Rose
Overture,"  by  Lavallee.
Baskets of flowers and palms added
an artistic touch to the scene. The
Rev. Paul A. Rempe offered the invocation and the benediction was
pronounced by the Rev. M. A. Cossaboom.
Attired In Gowns
The graduates were attired in
gowns and mortar-boards, Donald
Druckenbrod, class president, introduced the speaker, Dean W. R. Westhafer  of the  College  of  Wooster.
The title of Den Westhafer's address was ."Are We Gettirig An Education?" In the main his advice was
"Discover Yourself." He advised the
graduates to keep friendly with life
and stay away from self-pity. "You
are at the end of your string when
you indulge in self-pity," declared
the dean.
Speed Up Minds
He told the graduates to "speed up
your mind to grasp a subject," and
he quoted several instances that came
under his own observation to prove
that it is merely wasting valuable
time following the line of least resistance. Digging deep into a subject
is the only way to secure results, said
the dean.
He advised a college course for
young men and women; at the same
time he cautioned them to "discover
themselves" after they enter a college.
"All knowledge is important," he said,
"but the chief thing is to secure
knowledge pertaining to the subject
you are vitally interested in."

number of years ago of reading the

Varnish       AT ROTARIAN DINNER
By BEN LONG
Use Both Terms
AY 30, as was explained in Letters
to The Sun in answer to a correspondent last week, has two
designations, both of which are commonly used. Originally, in General
John A. Logan's first proclamation as
commander-in-chief of the Grand
Army of the Republic, the word
"memorial" did not appear. The occasion was universally known then as
Decoration day.
In later years the designation was
changed to Memoiia] day. But both
phrases—Decoration day, and Memorial day—will be heard in many of
today's orations in the north,' the
east and the west.

BOYS, BEHAVE
Destroying    Shrubbery    Will    Mean
Arrest and a Fine.
Several complaints have readied the
police department that young boys are
amusing themselves by destroying
shrubbery around the school buildings
and in Witwer park.
Arrests are contemplated, and the
culprits will be taken before Mayor
Evans, who under the village ordinance must impose a fine on all persons guilty of petty vandalism.
Paying .125 for destroying shrubbery, not to mention the stigma of
having been arrested, ought to keep
boys from committing- further depredations.

LETTERS TO THE SUN
Fire Chief Smith
Editors The Sun: May I ask a little
space in The Sun to express my
thanks for the sensible statement of
Fire Chief Joe Smith concerning the
terrible fire in Chicago. As he so
wisely says, there is a lesson in that
conflagration for all our people.
As a life-long resident of North
Canton and a near neighbor of Chief
Smith I have felt for a iong time that
ha and his men deserve the thanks of
this town for the care they take to
prevent fires and the splendid assistance they give when flames do break
out.
Such men as Chief Smith are a big
asset to any community. They perform their duty quietly and efficiently
and they cause us to sleep more
soundly at night because we know
they are always on the job.
ONE  OF HIS  NEIGHBORS.
North Canton, May 28, 1934.
Board and Gown
In answer to several questions submitted to The Sun concerning the
origin of the "uniforms" worn by the
graduates of N. C. high school on
Friday night, the following reply, we
believe, contains the information desired.
Academic costumes or university
robes in which the North Canton
graduating class wore were comparatively rare in America until the
last quarter of the nineteenth century.
As a uniform attire was desired, originally for the purpose of equalizing the station of poor and rich and
to differentiate college students, an
intercollegiate committee met at Columbia college in 1894 under the chairmanship of President Low. Yale,
Princeton, and New York universities
were also  represented.
The report they turned in a year
later decided on three gowns and caps
as the official robes. For further details see the New International Encyclopedia, published by Dodd, Mead
& company, New York city.

Cleveland of New York and Thomas

born in Muskingum county, Ohio, carried  the  election.
After Logan's death his widow became a lobbyist in Washington for

The No-Ca-Hi Annual, published by
students of the North Canton high
school under the supervision of Superintendent Denton and the teachers,
made its appearance yesterday.
It contains 114 pages in black and
white and is bound in soft leather
black covers. It is profusely illustrated. Several of the high school
students made pictures from linoleum
cuts.
The entire book is a work of art
and will he a valuable souvenir in the
years to come. The entire volume,
typesetting and presswork, was turned out in the job department of The
Sun.
Card of Thanks
We wish to express our appreciation
to North Canton friends for their expressions of sympathy during our
bereavement. Especially do we thank
the Junior Class and High School
teachers for the flowers.
Genevieve  Wheelock, mother and
sister.
ODAY is the 128th anniversary of
one of the most sensational
duels in American history. General Andrew Jackson shot and killed
Charles Dickinson, and was himself
seriously wounded. If the Burr-Hamilton duel was America's most famous
encounter on the "field of honor," as
they called it in those days, then the
Jackson-Dickinson duel certainly
conies second on the list.
Public opinion has changed on such
matters, since then. Jackson took part
in at least two other duels; in spite
of which record he was elected President of the United States.
Today it is impossible to conceive
of an American statesman taking part
in such an "affair of honor." If a
"statesman" today feels that he is
grossly defamed by some hated rival
he does not send a challenge to a
duel with swords or pistols. He sends
a lawyer with a suit for "damages,"
or he hires a few professional blackmailers to blast his rival's reputation
or block his credit at the bank.
XXX
I DON'T beleive in duels, but they
were far and ahead in decency
over the present system of sitting
in a well furnished office and planning
the downfall of some man whose only
crime is that he speaks as his conscience dictates. In American politics
he is Public Enemy No. 1 in the eyes
of the hypocrites and blah-blah ranters we call "statesmen."
Of course we have a number of
decent, able men serving the people
but the majority of public servants,
in the highest positions and the lowest, are "small potatoes and few in
the hill."

Martyrdom of Joan
FIVE hundred and three years ago
today the political sharks of
France burned at the stake in the
public square of Rouen the greatest
girl France ever produced—Joan of
Arc. Eternal infamy attaches to the
memory of the king whom she had
placed on the throne and whose kingdom she had saved for him, yet who
made no real effort to save the 20-
year-old Maid of Orleans from the
flames.
If the spirit of Joan of Arc is
looking- down today on this 500 and
third anniversary of her death, she
is seeing how time sets such matters
aright. There is no longer either
thrones or kings in France. But the
little Maid of Orleans is honored
throughout the civilized world as
Saint Joan—the most illustrious heroine in all  history.

Messrs. Dillin and Schneider were

father and Iaac Kauffman served in
the same division at the battle of
Gettysburg, and the young world war
vet warmly greeted the soldier of
Lincoln's  day.
Fought   For  Ideals
Frank Clapper, chairman of the
program committee, presented Attorney Gnau, who said that "Every
man in all our wars fought for an
ideal. The world war had a bigger
and broader ideal because the liberties
of more people were at stake. The
soldiers in our wars died for a principle.
"Misunderstandings between nations bring on war. Some principles
when threatened by unprincipled men
force war upon people. 1 hold no brief
for anybody, pacifist or militarist.
The pacifist goes to one extreme, the
militarist to the other. Neither one
understands the working of the
other's mind. If trained lawyers, men
of the highest legal attainments, can
not agree on points of law, how can
we xepect every day affairs to be
settled by men with merely a super-
icial knowledge of the facts in dispute ?
Common  Sense  Needed
"If nations would display less greed
and more common sense in dealing
with each other; more of the spirit
of brotherly love and less suspicion,
the possibilities of war would be
greatly lessened; yes, I'll even go so
far as to say eliminated.
"We make too much of war.
Spread-eagle, blatant oratory is ever
ready to point to the deeds of soldiers,
but it sees no heroism in the acts of
civilians who carry on for the public

MEMORY'S   DAY
A SUN EDITORIAL
T
HIS is the day of flowers, of flags,
of the shrines where lie our heroes—and of memory. The memory that reaches back to the war for
the preservation of tho Union is a
long, long one. The actors in that
colossal drama have nearly all passed
from earth. In The Sun's territory
they are few, but today they go
bravely, if sadly, to the last resting-
places of their comrades and there
reverently bedeck the flag-marked
graves with the bright blossoms of
Spring.
They are aided now by the sons of
the Boys in Blue; the veterans of the
Spanish-American war, and last, but
by no means least, the gallant fellows
who defended the Flag in the World
War.
The World War veterans are likewise reaching the age of memories.
True, they marched with firm and
unfaltering step in North Canton,
Greentown and other places this Wednesday morning to the hallowed places
where the American Legion honors
its   dead,   but   each   year   shows   the

fighting, is a beautiful memorial
chapel. Memorial day has thus become
international.
The day of memory has become for
all our people who have lost those
close to them—as who has not—a day
of the strewing of flowers. More and
more each year does this fine emulation of the Grand Army of the Republic show in evidence. It is no
longer altogether a military day. It
is a day for all whose hearts turn
toward the "silent cities" and turning,
bear their sheaves of blooms to mark
their   devotion.
