'•'„ • T. VENTRILOQUIST ACT / To a German Hausfrau You used to envy us women in America, I've been told, "meihe Frau." In" the old days you heard quite a lot about the conveniences we had in our comfortable houses—gleaming, white bath tubs, for one thing*. How you would have loved one—and a big sink in your kitchen'. You sometimes sighed, thinking of our vacuum cleaners and our electric irons. Such helps would have spared you hours of drudgery each week. You marveled, too, at our many automobiles. But even in your wildest dreams I doubt if you could" imagine loading your children into a big shiny car and going off for a day in the country without the protection—and domination—of your husband! German women, even before Hitler, knew very little of the independence and freedom that our way of life gave the women in America long ago. You were supposed to confine your activities to the church, the kitchen, and the nursery while so many of us had found independence in community activities and well-paying jobs. But then, people always Asaid that America spoiled her women. > * Now, in harassed Germany, what are you thinking about us? We aren't putting in any mew bath tubs these days, and perhaps you have heard that we're not even making automobiles.- We seldom go off with the kids for an all-day picnic, and a good many thousands of us are working in factories. But we're still the most fortunate women on the face of this tortured globe! Our free industrial system, which used to produce so many pleasant, comfortable things, is now turning out war equipment in formidable quantities. We oui**- - selves are surprised how much, and you would be terrified if you knew the half of it. It means, of course, that we're going to win this war. In spite of your years of forced preparation, in spite of your early victories, in spite of your incredible sacrifices, the armies that are made up of and equipped by free men and women are going to come out on top and dictate -.the pftace..-. --.- < u^i-:- -.-^s..=< *.-■* -* . . ■ ..A .,.-..

The people who get tlie worst of it in a totalitarian country are, as you well know, women who are pushed back into the kind of slavery we outgrew 500 years ago. When we win this war, it's going to be better for everybody, and you, no longer oppressed by your government, will find'hope again. And some clay, we believe, you're going to have not only political freedom ^but that freedom from poverty and toil that free industry in a modern world can so easily provide.

Reports have reached the may- 01's office that a certain group of children have been trespassing- on a number of Victory Gardens which were planted in the spring to assist in the all-out war effort. The children have been tearing up the growing plants and destroying- tho ripening vegetables. Although they may be ruining only a comparatively small number of gardens they are still doing all they can to help the enemy and as such must be classed as enemies to their ovfrn community and country. Mayor Price has issued a warning that any person caught destroying the work which has been done in the gardens will be punished severely. Parents are asked to cooperate with the authorities in impressing upon the children the seiiousness of such acts of vandalism. Sees Nazi Horrors in NEW YORK.—Mrs. Ruth Mitchell Knowles, sister of the late General "Billy" Mitchell, is embraced by her daughter, Mis. Robert Yohn after Mrs. Knowles' arrival in the U. S. on the diplomatic ship, SS. Drottningholm. During the .14 months she spent in Gestapo prisons and concentration camps in Yugoslavia and Germany, many of her friends among American and English women prisoners were shot by Nazi firing squads, she said. She was one of the first foreigners admitted to the Comitaji, Yugo-Slavian guerilla organization. wimmiiig OX Program Designed as a Clinic to Aid Swimmers and Non- Swimmers; Strokes, Kicks and Dives to Be Shown War Medicine in developing the mortality American medicine is taking the lead techniques for lessening the suffering and that war produces. Ali over the world, Ariierican doctors, both within and without the military forces, are-studying wounds and disease. New drugs ancl medicines are being tested. New methods of healing are being tried. And already, some signal achievements have taken place, American doctors on Bataan, for instance, finding themselves lacking'certain vital supplies, experimented, with a new treatment to. prevent fatal ■^<mfections in-terribly wounded men—-and they succeeded. ' Whatever can be done to alleviate in any degree tlie horrors of war is a boon to mankind, and to a suffering and bleeding world. And it is.only to be expected that American doctors are at tlie forefront in war medicine. Tlie American doctor is an individual, not a regimented creature of the state.'He has had' the finest possible schooling and 'training. He is aggressively progressive. And today, all his skill, all his knowledge, and all his abilities, areui'gently needed. Many great medical discoveries -will/in all probability, come out of this war. These discoveries will be the means of saying hundreds of thousands of precious lives, and alleviating the agony of the wounded. American medicine has gone to war—-not-to kill,--.but to saveAnot to destroypbufrto aid and succor,humanity.. With the annual watermelon hunt at the swimming pool already a thing of the past, North Canton swimmeis are planning an exhibition of swimming and diving to be held at the pool Friday, evening at 7 o'clock.

The show will start at 8:30-each evening on .Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. A huge army war show, bringing to tlie citizens of this part of the state a small replica of war as it is being fought on the battle fronts today, will be staged in the Akron Rubber Bowl for four nights, July 16, 17, 18 and 19. The rolling thunder of huge guns in actual combat will - ound over the wooded farmlands and busy cities as the fast moving pageant gets under way. Many of the weapons which are produced on the assembly lines of Ohio plants will be ••'.-ed in the performance to show the people who help to make them how they are used by the Army. From start to finish the men in this great show, numbering nearly 2,000 officers and men will keep the audience on their toes with exhibits of the many types of mechanized equipment in use in the army. And the thrilling climax never fails to bring the audience up out of the seats, cheering the men on. For it is impossible to sit quietly and watch American infantrymen, supported by tanks, machine guns, light and heavy artillery, jeeps, combat cars and motorcycle troops, storm a "Jap" position and "capture" the "enemy" force. High pitched audiences go wild with cheers as the men storm the position in the mock battle and take the opposing force. The air force also takes an important place in the show as it reveals its power in the whole battle effort. And just to show that the old fighting elements still have a place in the lineup, a troop of crack Negro cavalrymen from Fort Riley, Kansas, give a demonstration of hard riding ability. The-Army war show is in charge of Major Charles Spencer Hart who distinguished himself in 1917 and 1918 as the director of shows to give the civilian population a vivid picture of what the Army was doing* in actual combat. The show is scheduled to start each evening at S:30 while during the day there is an exhibit of Army auxiliary services, showing the visitors close-up views of the mechanized equipment, including guns and other weapons and also showing how the army cares for its men in the Quartermaster corps, the Medical corps, the Dental corps and similar branches of the service. The religious side of Army life is not neglected and there is a mobile chapel where Army chaplains hold services for the men and oificers in the force comprising the cast of the show. A large number of citizens from North Canton and vicinity plan to attend this outstanding show during the four-day period and for those who do not already have their tickets, they are on sale in the employment office of the Hoover Co., at Schafer-Messerly drug store and at the Community building. In addition to showing the peopie how the Second World War is being- fought, this show helps to serve another great cause by contribution to the Army Relief fund. o Study Glub Picnic to Be Held Friday Evening Republican Candidates to Be Introduced at Meeting The annua! picnic of the Plain Township Republican Women's Study club will be held Friday, July J.0 at S p. m. in.

Mayor Price Warns Severe
Punishment Awaits Culprits if Destruction Continues
Sabotage—destructive and detestable—is being- carried on in Noith
Canton by a group of youthful vandals who have no respect for th.
labor and property of others.
Reports have reached the may-

children have been trespassing- on
a number of Victory Gardens which
were planted in the spring to assist in the all-out war effort. The
children have been tearing up the
growing plants and destroying- tho

Although they may be ruining
only a comparatively small number of gardens they are still doing
all they can to help the enemy and
as such must be classed as enemies
to their ovfrn community and country.
Mayor Price has issued a warning that any person caught destroying the work which has been
done in the gardens will be punished severely. Parents are asked
to cooperate with the authorities
in impressing upon the children the
seiiousness of such acts of vandalism.
