Lt. Donald A. Mack, commander of the Massillon

Patrol and president of the
association, said the plan
is to provide highly visible
traffic patrol units on all
of Stark County's heavily
traveled roads and those
with the highest accident
frequency.
'"Specifically, we hope to
deter would - be traffic
violations through our presence; other wise, take
strict but fair traffic law
enforcement action in an
effort to eliminate traffic
fatalities in our county,"
Mack wrote a letter to all
police agencies inthecoun-
ty seeking their cooperation in the campaign.
Mack said Stark County
is annually among the top
in traffic deaths and that
Memorial Day weekend,
Friday,. May 22 through
Monday, May 23, traditionally kicks off the summer
travel season when fatalities are most frequent.
With full participation
cooperation from all
StarkCountypolice agencies •
we can achieve a fatality
-free and safe traveling Memorial Day weekend
and set the tone for coming
summer months," Mack
wrote.
North Canton Police Chief
James A. Bardin announced that his department will
cooperate fully in the traffic safety campaign over
the holiday weekend. Chief
Bardin said that all available units will be placed

Sesquicentennial "
Almanac
One of this nation's proudest' traditions is the
observance df Memorial Day. Tt started during the
Civil War when young southern girls decorated
the igraves oif fallen Confederate soldiers. When
com5ng upon some Union soldiers buried in the
same cemetery, they were faced wifh what to do
— the solution was "go home and. get more flowers." Thus we bave the beginning of what used to
be called Decoration Day, now Memorial Day. A
legacy carried oh here almosft continuously since
1920.

North Canton's Post 419
of the American Legionhas
for these many years been
responsible for staging the
parade and conducting the
s ervice which follows. They
have also been responsible
for decoratingtheveteran's
graves in area cemeteries.
More recently the Chamber of Commerce and the
Heritage Society have assisted in the planning.
This year changes have
been made .to encourage
greater participation at the
service by making it more
centrally located. The parade will comesouthonMain
Street and disband at Zion
United Church of Christ
parking lot. The Commemoration Service will beheld
for the first time from the
front porch of City Hall.
Although a mayor,astate
representative and a local
judge are participating, this
is not a political gathering.
Unlike the celebration atmosphere of the 4th of July
Parade, tlie Memorial Day
event is a commemoration
A time of remembering, not
debating; a time of renewing our patriotic commitment, not taking our freedoms for granted; a time to
dedicate the human spirit,
not throw away man's dignity.
Over the years the day has
been renamed, the date rescheduled by legislative
proclamation, the parade
route changed - but despite
all that, each year North
Canton, Ohio expresses itself on how we feel toward
those who gave their lives
in several wars.
Yes, flags will be handed out and wave over homes; bands will play and
taps will be heard loud and
clear; the caliopewill puff
away; guns will be fired and
speeches will be made, all
making one grand North
Canton tradition which will
start Monday at 10 a.m.
