BECK'S ADDRESS Clerk of Courts In Masterful Address Advises Graduates To Take the Right Road. B. B. Beck, clerk of the courts of Stark county, was introduced to the audience by Superintendent of Schools Thomas G. Denton. Mr. Beck said he considered it "not only a pleasure; but an honor to be a humble participant in the commencement exercises of the class of 1!),'J2 of the North Canton high school and 1 am sure that this will not only be a garden spot in your memory but in my memory as well." He praised the glee clubs and the musicians and the teachers for their devotion to their pupils. He cited a number of instances, Lincoln and Garfield, especially, to siiow that many men became great owing to their industry and their desire to reach the top. He continued: Like the Psalmist of old, you who have been educated in this beautiful and model town, can well say "Our! lot has been east in pleasant places," as few communities this size have such beautiful homes and such a fine community spirit as has North Canton. Praises Bess Hoover Emerson says "Every great achievement is but the lengthening shadows of a man," and the achievement of North Canton and her model industry (The Hoover Electric Cleaner Company) is largely the product of the brain and industry of that great man who recently passed away, affectionately known as Boss Hoover. Mr. Hoover was not only a civic leader and a captain of industry, hut he had time to use his marvelous energy and i great ability in the Kingdom of the Master of Men. He was one of God's will always live. We can well say with poet Campbell . "To live in hearts, we leave behind Is not to die." This is a great day not only for you who have achieved the highest honor 'in the gift of your school, but a groat day for tbe whole community. As you bid goodbye to your school, we bid God-speed in your great commencement in life's great activities. Quotes Van Dyke's Poem The longer your speaker lives,'the more he is convinced of the fact that life's greatest gifts are bestowed on those who do common things uncommonly well, and whatever you aspire to do in life, may you say with Dr. Henry VanDyke of Princeton "Let me but do my work frpm day to day, In field or forest, at the desk >nr loom, In roaring market place or tranquil room; Where vagrant wishes beckon me astray, This is my work; my blessing, nol my doom, Of all who live, I am the one by whom, This work can best be done in the right way. ; "Then shall I see it not too great nor small ' ! To suit my spirit and to prove my powers; , Then shall I cheerful greet the labor-. ing hours, j And cheerful turn, when the longj shadows fall At eventide, to play and love and rest,! Because I know for me my work I is best," Praises Orations He referred several times to the orations on "Faith" by Paul Mortimer and "Is Poverty a Curse?" by Alma Stickle, two of the graduates this year, and reminded the girl graduates that while they arc not in "Who's Who" today they will be in the future if they "get a fellow with the stulf in him to reach the top." Life's true heroes and heroines are not alone found on the battlefield, but in the everyday walk and duties of life one best serves his Master, and one best does his work, and when he does it lightly, may lie a hero or heroine, as truly as one who faces a cannon's mouth. [Continued on page three] Told Without Varnish By BEN LONG An independent political writer Brown's Neighbor Goodyear PAUL K. GOODYEAR, editor of the Reporter, New Vienna, Clinton county, Ohio, conducts a sprightly column called "Just Among Ourselves." As a neighbor of Clarence J.

Begg was in Canton on Saturday afternoon and he made a speech before the central committee of Stark county Republicans. What has Jim up his sleeve to cause him to journey to Canton ? Does he see it written in large letter on the wall that Dave is going to defeat in November and that he, (Jim) wants an early start for the Governorship two years hence.

This writer agrees with Editor Goodyear that Claience J. Brown must not be permitted to remain in private life. Men of the high qualifi-. cations of Brown are needed in pub-| relix Durand lie life, be they Republicans or Demo-, Unc' Bos crats. The followers of Clarence J. Brown want more humanity in government, more attention to human rights and less lo material. They do not believe in legislation enforced by the use of the sandbag, so they will turn to Brown, not Begg,,in UVAA. This coining Friday and Saturday evenings at 8:15 the curtain in the Community Building will rise on the seventh annual play to be staged by the American Legion. This year the play is one originally played by Mrs. Fiske and is known throughout the country as one of.her best.

An Evening of Pleasure ' ' ?]':':; Nellie of N'Orleans" is the title, and that in itself should prepare you .for an evening of pleasure and romance. The cast is made up entirely of local people under Howard Zengler's- direction ami as he has been responsible for tlie last four successes it should assure you this will be above the average home talent production. To Help Junior Baseball The proceeds are to go for the Legion's varied program, the main one needing attention at the present time being junior baseball. Tickets can be secured at this time from all Legion members or at the Building. We hope the North Canton Gives $36,780 To the Community Fund Ellis B.

Mr. ' Markley has a message all can un- I derstand and appreciate. As a pub- J lie speaker he is in great demand. ' JACKSON TIP. HIGH HEN Lester S. Lash was running j for auditor of Stark county The Sun supported him solely on the j record he bad made in the city of j Massillon and what this newspaper! learned about him from conservative business men, farmers, mechanic:; and professional men. i The editors of The Sun did not know Mr. Lash' personally; as a matter of fact they had never seen him, but they decided he was the man for the place if it was to be taken out of the dump of cheap politics and bickerings of a silly nature and placed upon a firm foundation. At the general election Mr. Lash won by a small margin. t t •-!• ', TU-IE SUN has never hail occasion 1 to regret the suppoit it gave Lester S. Lash. He has measured up in every particular. Hi not be challenged, honesty. When he discovered that Ralph E. Tanner, a deputy county auditor, had been taking money from the cash draw and using it for his personal use, Auditor Lash caused the arrest of Tanner. He was convicted and on Monday or Tuesday a Judge will tell him where he is going to reside for the next few years. •t t t The Sun calls "serv- ng the public and to hell with politics." Lash is a Democrat and honest man. Tanner is a Demo crat, and according to the findings of the jury, a dishonest man. Many men in Auditor Lash's position would have "hushed it up," given the culprit opportunity to resign, and then passed the hat among the oll'ice force and outside Democrats "for the good of the party's name." Not so Lash. He isn't of that brand of kidney. Honest as daylight himself, he tolerates no underhand methods. "Come clean and slay clean or get out" is his motto, and the thinking, law-abiding people of Stark cniin- stand he took ly honor him for against Tanner. money won't lie f Lash is Tin •itte y know in tl .10 M r. courage can- neither can his SSISTING named Jami the County Republican, and him for th. Lash is a man M. Aum.st. IK is 'rosecutor. He is a The Sun supported initiation and at the THAT is what ing the put general election. This newspaper is proud of "Jimmy'' Aungst. All crooks look alike to him, and while he gives everybody fair play and an even break he becomes as sour as milk a week old when tliey try to "work" him through politics. When the people of Stark county become intelligent they will forget parly labels and select for their public servants men possessing the qualifications of Lash and Aungst. Then there will be no scandals. But while they go to the polls like serfs and vote for any Tom, Dick and Harry they are going to be "trimmed," and trimmed to a fare-you-well! THE SUN. D. P.

This writer agrees with Editor Goodyear that Claience J. Brown must not be permitted to remain in private life.

They do not believe in legislation enforced by the use of the sandbag, so they will turn to Brown, not Begg,,in UVAA.

Mr. ' Markley has a message all can un- I derstand and appreciate. As a pub- J lie speaker he is in great demand. ' JACKSON TIP. HIGH HEN Lester S. Lash was running j for auditor of Stark county The Sun supported him solely on the j record he bad made in the city of j Massillon and what this newspaper! learned about him from conservative business men, farmers, mechanic:; and professional men. i The editors of The Sun did not know Mr. Lash' personally; as a matter of fact they had never seen him, but they decided he was the man for the place if it was to be taken out of the dump of cheap politics and bickerings of a silly nature and placed upon a firm foundation. At the general election Mr. Lash won by a small margin. t t •-!• ', TU-IE SUN has never hail occasion 1 to regret the suppoit it gave Lester S. Lash. He has measured up in every particular. Hi not be challenged, honesty. When he discovered that Ralph E. Tanner, a deputy county auditor, had been taking money from the cash draw and using it for his personal use, Auditor Lash caused the arrest of Tanner. He was convicted and on Monday or Tuesday a Judge will tell him where he is going to reside for the next few years. •t t t The Sun calls "serv- ng the public and to hell with politics." Lash is a Democrat and honest man. Tanner is a Demo crat, and according to the findings of the jury, a dishonest man. Many men in Auditor Lash's position would have "hushed it up," given the culprit opportunity to resign, and then passed the hat among the oll'ice force and outside Democrats "for the good of the party's name." Not so Lash. He isn't of that brand of kidney. Honest as daylight himself, he tolerates no underhand methods. "Come clean and slay clean or get out" is his motto, and the thinking, law-abiding people of Stark cniin- stand he took ly honor him for against Tanner. money won't lie f Lash is Tin •itte y know in tl .10 M r. courage can- neither can his SSISTING named Jami the County Republican, and him for th.

All crooks look alike to him, and while he gives everybody fair play and an even break he becomes as sour as milk a week old when tliey try to "work" him through politics. When the people of Stark county become intelligent they will forget parly labels and select for their public servants men possessing the qualifications of Lash and Aungst. Then there will be no scandals. But while they go to the polls like serfs and vote for any Tom, Dick and Harry they are going to be "trimmed," and trimmed to a fare-you-well! THE SUN. D. P.
