Dr. Kreighbaum, Dr. Warburton and Dr. Sommers who Do You Read Unbiased? ■? * i One of the more level-headed of the columnists, whose voice was stilled before its time, wrote this truth: "I am lest concerned about the freedom of the press than I am aboul the freedom of the reader. You won't keep a free press unless- the reader also is tolerant, open-minded, interested, in both sides." j. How do you read? How do you listen? Are you carried 'ilpway by positive statements without stopping to considei they might have been made for a purpose? Or—are you a free reader? Can yo.u study both sides calmly and collectedly, weighing the source of each statement, judging by past performance and arriving at your own decision after careful thought and due consideration of all facts in the case ? If you can do this, you are a free reader. 1 If you can da this, you can effectively combat those who try to stir up trouble by false authoritatively stated, by vitriolic charges against those in authority, by untrue accusations against various minority groups and by a constant harping criticism of anything and everything. The wisest man I ever knew used to say, whenever anyone began to tell him anything—"State the facts. Don't characterize." Apply that to propaganda or to articles, or speeches. Shear them of characterizations and of all statements prefaced by the catch phrases "its said"; "everyone knows"; "they say"; etcetera, and see what you have left. You will be surprised how little it is in almost every case. Analyze what you read and hear, and study it with an open , poised mind, ready to admit a point but not ready to compromise with a demagogic attempt to stir you to impatience or intolerance. A free press calls for, and deserves, free readers—men bid women who so value the Bill of Rights which insures «^_ p^^-thia-boon^ JmowU^ _jxea±_this, right ~with_ .reverence, keeping themselves ready to learn "all the" truths and'jtb form .their own opinions according to their individual wills..The only way- we can keep a free press is to deserve it by being free reader. were in attendance examined twenty children, nine of whom, were requested to return for further examination of their hearts at a designated time. These were not necessarily rheumatic fever cases, but their questionable heart action ' warrants their return for further examination. Through the courtesy of the Pre- School Mothers' Club letters and pamphlets were sent home from ichool with all children under ten fears of age. Parents are request- .d to study these carefully and if .here is any doubt in their mind whether or not their child may lave been a victim of rheumatic ever, they are urged to call and nake an appointment for the next dinic which will be held fram 8:30 i. m. until 9:30 a. m. in the Cam- ntmity Building o n Saturday, January 8, 1949. Inasmuch as the doctors are do- lating their time, it is felt that 10 more children should be taken 2ach clinic morning than the doc- :ors can thoroughly examine with- n the specified time. Therefore the ?re-SchooI Mothers Club are ask- 'ng the Mothers who are intending -o bring their children to the clinic ■o call ahead of time and make an ippointment. All the doctors in North Canton md Greentown are donating their ;ime on a rotating basis. All moth/rs with children under ten years of age are urged to use the clinic. It is better to be safe than sorry. f raffta iAGcidents And Vioiaf tons Officers Installed At Jackson Twsp, Farm Women's Oliib Jackson Township Farm Woman's club was entertained December 1, by Mrs. Gladys Thomas and Mrs. Louise 'Thomas at their- residence. It was also the annual Christmas party of the club when silent sisters were revealed in the' exchange of gifts. Twenty-two members and one guest were .present. During the business meeting the im.embers voted a number of Christmas contributions including §10 to the Tuberculosis stamp sales and ?25 as a gift to the Boy's Village at Smithville. New officers installed were Miss Hazel Yearkey, president, Mrs. Estella Tilton. vice president, Mrs. Margaret Cheyney, secretary and Mrs. Carolyn Pry, treasurer. Mrs. Maude Carle was received as a new member. Mrs. Estella Tilton will be hostess to the club on January 5 when a contest dinner iwill be served. The losing side will serve the victors. For God and Country On November 14 Archbishop Richard J. Gushing of the Catholic Archdiocese of Boston addressed the seventy-fifth anniversary convention of the Union of American. Hebrew Congregations. He hailed religion as the foundation of freedom an attacked communism, atheism, fascism and nazism as the great threats to freedom in this generation. And then, speaking officially for the Catholic Church, the Archbishop declared, "I can and do pledge to you the friendship of my people. There are many ignorant or malicious things sometimes said about our beliefs and their effect on the attitude of Christians towards Jews. I ask you not to believe those things; they are lies and they are uttered in order, to divide us." Following the Archbishop came Jacob Aronson, chairman of the Union's board. He castigated Communism. He spoke of the desperate need of the world for religion. "At this time true religion may truthfully be described as the last great hope of humanity,", he said. "Just now this Weary arid dis- ^feouraged world needs a revival of religious faith and practice." - • _ The- convention session reached a high point when the chairman, Joseph H. Cohen, saluted the presence of Archbishop Cushing an welcomed the prospect of the appearance on the next day. of Robert P. Taft, president of the .Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America, as the "dramatic symbolization of the spirit of religious freedom and inter- faith amity that is so significant a; part of the structure of the American democracy." Americans are awakening to the dire threat of Communism and Fascism which hangs over them. They are" unifying their forces. .They are tearing down the barricades which subversive elements erected to divide them. They are gathering their strength. They are marching to victory in the name of God and Country. Indirect Business Ownership If you could look at the shoes worn by people who are the true "owners" of -American business, chances are you'd find your own shoes among them. That .holds true whether you're a factory .worker, a school teacher; a farmer, a storekeeper, (a clerk, a cowboy, a housewife or a stenographer. •fi?, If you bwn a' single" share of stock in any business enter- uprise, you are one of the 14 million Americans who are direct owners of American industry, and who receive part of the profits of industry in the farm of dividends. ~ If you carry life insurance, you are' an'indirect owner of business, because premiums you and 75 million other policyholders pay are reinvested by insurance companies in sound, profitable businesses.-That's why your insurance policy can give you income as well as safety. The same holds true, of almost ail pension' plans. Even if you" have no' stock." no insurance, no pension—but are one of 60 million who have savings accounts, you have a stake in-business. That's because the bank can lend your money to well- r managed firms at a, profit, and so canfpay. you interest.." t : Addit up, arfd j ust( about-eveiyfaMy^nrAmerica today '"'"is,a part "owner"-of biigmess.: That means that, just about Driving a heavy truck through town while intoxicated was the charge placed against Jerry M.

anniversary convention of the Union of American. Hebrew
Congregations. He hailed religion as the foundation of freedom an attacked communism, atheism, fascism and nazism
as the great threats to freedom in this generation.
And then, speaking officially for the Catholic Church,
the Archbishop declared, "I can and do pledge to you the
friendship of my people. There are many ignorant or malicious things sometimes said about our beliefs and their effect
on the attitude of Christians towards Jews. I ask you not to
believe those things; they are lies and they are uttered in
order, to divide us."
Following the Archbishop came Jacob Aronson, chairman
of the Union's board. He castigated Communism. He spoke
of the desperate need of the world for religion. "At this time
true religion may truthfully be described as the last great
hope of humanity,", he said. "Just now this Weary arid dis-
^feouraged world needs a revival of religious faith and practice." - •
_ The- convention session reached a high point when the
chairman, Joseph H. Cohen, saluted the presence of Archbishop Cushing an welcomed the prospect of the appearance
on the next day. of Robert P. Taft, president of the .Federal
Council of Churches of Christ in America, as the "dramatic
symbolization of the spirit of religious freedom and inter-
faith amity that is so significant a; part of the structure of
the American democracy."
Americans are awakening to the dire threat of Communism and Fascism which hangs over them. They are" unifying
their forces. .They are tearing down the barricades which
subversive elements erected to divide them. They are gathering their strength. They are marching to victory in the name
of God and Country.

uprise, you are one of the 14 million Americans who are
direct owners of American industry, and who receive part of
the profits of industry in the farm of dividends.
