SIGNATURES SECURED
FOR MOSIER PETITION
Men and Women Say It Gives
(Them Pleasure To Sign For
the Congressman-at-Large For
a Second Term Because of His
Ability, His Human Kindness,
and His Moral Courage.
THE  PEOPLE'S  CANDIDATE
A week ago a petition was received
jin North Canton from Harold G.
Mosier of Cleveland, Congressman-al-
Large from Ohio, the object being to
secure signatures so that he can run
at the primaries in August for a second term.
Within 24 hours 78 men and women
had affixed their names and addresses
to the petition and it was on its way
to Congressman Mosier. Seventy-eight
names occupied all the space allowed
by law.
Well Deserved Tribute
It was a well-deserved tribute to a
faithful, intelligent and upright public servant whose vigorous mind and
compelling personality has stirred the
dry bones in the field of national politics and secured for Ohio a place of
eminence in Washington.
A Few Comments Heard
Below will be found a few of the
comments by people as they signed the
petition:
"I don't know him personally, but
as Lieutenant Governor of Ohio he
was the people's friend. As a Congressman he is a good one."
"He plays a substantial part in
Washington. He is a credit to Ohio."
"He qualifies with me."
By a woman: "No one can deny his
ability, his honesty and his sincerity.
His outstanding loyalty to Ohio won
me some time ago."
Also by a woman: "I like him because he realizes he has a duty to
perform, and he is not afraid to do
it."
By a farmer: "He may be strong-
willed, but when I visited Washington
I found him kindly, generous and just.
He is deeply interested in our problems, and that is one reason I am going to vote for him."
By a merchant: "Congressman
Mosier has a keen mind and a lot of
hard common sense."
By a mechanic: "I like him. He
plays square with all of us. There is
nothing rash or impulsive about him."
The Sun Knows Him
If every voter in Ohio could know
Harold G. Mosier for what he is—a
lovable, loyal, experienced statesman,
there could be no doubt of his triumphant election in November. It is a
fortunate thing for the people of this
state that he decided lo seek a ro-
nomination in August. As The Sun
stated last week, and repeats today,
"the great state of Ohio needs a man
of his mental equipment and integrity to represent it in the halls of
Congress."
THOM GETS $34,592 FOR UNEMPLOYED IN CANTON.
Special to The Sun
Washington, D. C, April 20—Congressman William R. Thom announced
today the approval by the President
of a WPA project to provide employment for needy professional, educational and clerical persons, for the
purpose of modernizing, improving
and enlarging the records for the Cannon city engineer's office.
$34,592 is the amount allocated by
the federal government for the work
which will include the preparation of
a record of existing sidewalk conditions, preparing plats to show true
street and building' lines and the encroachments thereon, of city owned
property, its size and use, and topographic maps of the Canton sewage
disposal plant grounds. The project
has been sponsored by the city of
Canton.

Learn To Think
About this
time each year
the desk in the
cubby hole I occupy in The Sun
office receives
my personal attention due to
the fact that it
is covered with
old newspapers,
postal cards and
letters. I must
have at least
room to push a
        pencil, so I get
busy. It is a herculean task, but following my rule of finishing a job
after I begin it "I stay with it" until
I accomplish my purpose.
While thus engaged I found a cartoon which seemed pertinent and
worth while. The old year (1937) was

VOLLEYBALL   IS   POPULAR
With Lent in the past tense and
pleasant weather in the present, men
and boys in North Canton and its vicinage are preparing for outdoor
sports, although there will always be
found a number of young and middle-
aged men enjoving the sports in the
Community Building. It is a habit
they contracted years ago, and as it
is a very good habit, they are not
likely to break it.

winter.   That was all I had to do
they did the rest."
The above sentence within quotation marks contains a good deal of
philosophy, and a good deal of truth.
We are apt to blame circumstances
and conditions and to forget all about
our personal responsibility, and our
individual power, to shape circumstances and conditions, rather than allow them to shape us.
As I said before in this column,
this sinking of ourselves in the mass,
instead of developing and asserting
our powers as individuals, is one of
the great faults and the great dangers
of our present-day life. We are
afraid, perhaps, of being considered as
setting ourselves up to be better than
others; we are afraid of "what people say."
Or we genuinely do not believe
that we have anything in us which
would enable us to stand out from
the  rest of the human family.
We have largely discontinued the
practice of thinking for ourselves and
forming our own opinion because we
are continuously bombarded with the
opinions of others through books,
newspapers and the radio. Everything today tends to mold us into one
pattern; it is extremely difficult to
maintain and assert our individuality.
We should straggle against this tendency, endeavor to think for ourselves,
take our own line and stick to it.
Church Baseball League
The Church Baseball league will
start the last week in April. Some
of the players are now practicing at
the football field diamond. The schedule will be. in the next issue of The
Sun. Officials hope "to have three
churches represented: St. Paul's, Reformed, and Christians, both boys' and
senior teams. A shield will go to the
winning team in each division.
Volleyball Classes
Starting this week, the young men's
gym class will play volleyball on Monday and Thursday evenings at 7:30.
All will have opportunity to learn the
game, especially the spiking style of
attack. Volleyball is becoming a major game and North Canton should
make a good showing. Any man who
is interested may go to the Community Building for a tryout.
To Attend Physical Congress
North Canton will be represented at
the International Y. M. C. A. championship and physical education congress at Detroit, April 27 to May 1.
The finals of all sports of 2000 ath-.
letes and the climax of the congress
will be the big pageant of 500 performers, the golden statuettes from
Springfield college, Mass., and the
(magic ray) games in dark, a novelty
athletic number playing basketball,
badminton with squash racquets. Only
the hands and feet, the goals and the
ball are visible by the new "magic
ray."

As The Sun Sees It
Without Prejudice
Handed Roosevelt the Same Dose They
Gave To Coolidge and Hoover.
THE  SUN received  a  letter a few: men developed sore throats shouting

highly respected resident of Can-1 f?'y,„p(°1l,t,,',lans wept salty tears every

a bill, but the "nailed to their jobs
gents" had too much influence with
Senators and Congressmen, and so
the bill was killed.
President Hoover, to his credit be
it said, fought hard to secure the
passage of such a measure. As a
matter of fact the bill President
Roosevelt favored embodied principles favored by President Hoover, and
only an insane man would say that
Herbert Hoover wanted to be a dictator when he was in the White House.
The truth is the provisions of the
bill have the unanimous approval of
organizations devoted to the cause of
better administration in government,
but as its passage would mean the
discharge of hundreds of incompetent
employes holding jobs because of "political pull" the Reorganization bill
never will become a law until Congress recognizes that public office is
not a private snap.
that "the House of Representatives
has earned the grateful thanks and
high respect of the American people
by voting to recommit the bill, thus
killing it. For President Roosevelt
it is, of course, a major defeat. But
it is a defeat which he deserved to
suffer."
Our Canton friend writes more
along the same line, and toward the
end of his letter wonders "why The
Sun did not enter the battle against
the bill. Certainly a newspaper edited
by persons of your political knowledge know that the Reorganization
bill is un-American and means that
the man in the White House wants to
be a dictator."
The Sun doesn't know any such
thing, concerning the bill or the President. The Sun does know, however,
that tons of good white paper carried
editorials in daily publications thundering  against the bill;  that  states-

At State Federation Convention,
Reports Mrs. Paul Hahn.
Mrs. Paul Hahn, president of the
Woman's club of North Canton, gave
a comprehensive report of the state
federation convention which she attended as a delegate on Monday evening in the meeting in the Community
Building.
One of the high lights was the fact
that 545 women from all parts of the
state were in attendance.
Original Poems Read
Mrs. Beth Shorb read some original
poems and also told the story of Gypsy life which.was illustrated in song
by the Misses Evelyn Chenot, Genevieve Richards and Beulah Tritt, accompanied by Mrs. Clark Wehl at the
piano; Miss Josephine Bi'ing, trombone; Miss Thelma Earl, violin. All
who took part were in costume and
the program was much enjoyed.
New State Officers
The new state officers are Mrs. C.
N. Newcomer of Bryan, president;
Mrs. C. J. Goldthorte of Youngstown
is northeast district president.
The next state meeting will be in

will be held some time in October in

It is a great experience to travel the
whole length of this country observing the immense succession of local

its aspirations, its zealousies and
jealousies, its feuds and its excitements.
To me a man ashamed of the town
in which he resides is at best a poor
stick, but there are a number of such,
especially in the East, who think they
impress people when they say they
are from New York city, when as a
matter of fact they live in Weehawk-
en, Matawan, Hoboken, or some other
town in New Jersey. All good towns,
by the way, where the residents enjoy
life on a scale the denizens of Manhattan know nothing about.

CAPT. SLOAN'S HOBBY
Surrounds Himself With Bright
Fellows—Making Movies.
He Is a Famous Coach and They
Know Him In This Town.
There was a time when Arnold Post
and other genial gentlemen interested
in volleyball in North Canton remained awake at night figuring out a plan
to wallop "Doc" Walters and his intrepid volleyballers belonging to the
Akron Y. .
But that was in the long ago, Maggie, when Marshall Walters, better
known as "Doc," was leading a bunch
of untamed Indians into every bailiwick in Ohio <and leaving with scalps
of palefaces dangling from their belts.
Then "Doc" left Akron and entered
the physical department of tlie Y. M.
C. A. in Scranton, Pa. The North
Cantonians admire "Doc," and they
are pleased over his success, but they
prefer that he roam with his huskies
over the reservations in Governor
Earle's domain. Walters likes North
Canton, and he calls the players in
the Community Building "thorough
gentlemen and sportsmen, whether in
volleyball, basketball, bowling or any
other kind of game."

First One In February Proved a
Brilliant Triumph.
As announced in The Sun last week,
the second and last concert of the
Canton Symphony Orchestra of the
season will be given in the Canton
City auditorium tonight (Wednesday)
at 8:15 o'clock.
The work it did at its first concert
on February IG was such a success
that before the morning of February
17 dawned the cry was heard "Let us
have more!" The audience was enthusiastic, and that audience was the
cream of Stark county's concert-going
public.
Model of Fine Taste
The concert on February 16 was a
model of dignity, expertness, and fine
taste, and so it is safe to say that the
orchestra will be on its mettle tonight
and will play admirably.
Observe, Enjoy and Wonder
None should be happier about the
Canton Symphony Orchestra than the
music-lovers of North Canton and ils
vicinage, who  enjoy the opportunity
in the course of a season to observe
! and enjoy and wonder over a coneert-

They Know How
Particular people praise printing
when it is done in The Sun office. Sun
printers know how to print.
That is one thing I admire about
the West. They are proud of the
town they call home. Years ago I
visited friends residing on a farm
near Braman, Oklahoma. Learning
that I was a newspaper man, the
Mayor and several of the leading citizens of that 125 population hamlet invited me to-edit their little paper for
a week. The town had no lights, no
sidewalks, no conveniences, as we
know them, of any kind. Not even a
street (they hail three) had a name.
More in a spirit of fun than malice,
I named the main street Broadway.
The paper was enlarged from five
small columns, four pages, to seven
full length columns, eight pages, and
it carried pictures of the Mayor and
other citizens. They supplied me with
all sorts of news, and after I sorted
it, rewrote it, and dressed it up with
metropolitan headlines the forms were
sent out of town to be printed.
That edition made a "whale of a
hit" and put Braman on the map in
grand style. One thing I urged was
that tlie men when they took hogs
and cattle to Kansas City write the
name Braman in large letters. The
hotels in those days used registers,
instead of cards, as today.
Several years later I was editing a
daily newspaper in Blackwell in the
same county and I was interested in
nominating a county Judge, a sheriff,
and a county  commissioner.
To show their appreciation of my
work on that one edition the Mayor
and the entire neighborhood got'busy,
and not only did we name all our
favorites but for good measure they
elected me chairman of the delegation
to the county convention where I was
made chairman of the resolutions
committee. O, yes, we elected our
nominees in November.
That is the spirit you find in Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and other
states in that part of the United
States. And that spirit sends to
Washington many of the ablest men
in the Senate—Borah and Norris, for
instance.

distribution of wealth.
Yesterday, April ,19, was Patriots'

"NEW IN NORTH CANTON"
"Informality is the keynote of an
organization in the North Canton
(Ohio) Cinema club, according to H.
H. Sloan, first president and only
elected officer.
"Meeting in the homes of its members, the club plans for a small but
enthusiastic group, in which each
member will play an important part.
This policy already is in effect with
the operation of a program schedule
which makes the host of the evening
the program chairman as well and responsible for all the features of his
particular meeting.
"Following organization at the
home of Mr. Sloan, members W. D.
Trott and Ralph Spiker have carried
on with gatherings devoted respectively to title making and filters."
Object—Help Your Neighbor
Scenting a story, the boss on the
city desk told this reporter to "Find
Captain Homer H. Sloan, get his
photograph if possible, and learn all
you can about this organization."
The reporter came back with the
following  information.
"They are amateurs as movie makers, and they believe in helping each
other. They are pretty good when it
comes to photography, and the chances
are they have something worth while.

dashing by. Perhaps parents could do
more than an ordinance to put an
end to the danger.
