FATHER OF W.H.I00D
BECKONED BY DEATH
Was Apparently In Good Health
When He Expired Suddenly
In His Home At Rock Island,

His Dad.
HAS   SYMPATHY   OF  TOWN
Willis H. Wood, director of physical
education in the Community Building,
was called away suddenly on Friday
by a notice of the death of his father
at Rock Island,  Illinois.
Mr. Wood .had received a letter
from his father the day before and
the family had read it at the breakfast table that  morning.
In the letter his father had stated
that he was feeling well, in fact belter than usual, so the news of his
death, came as a s-hock to the Wood
family.
Has Sympathy of People
Mr. Wood has the sympathy of the
entire community. In the nearly nine
years that the Woods have been in
North Canton, "Woody" has become
really a part of it. Most of the men
and boys have been in his classes at
some time or another, and they feel
that not only his instruction has done
them good physically, but that the
subtle influence of the man himself
has been of great value to them.

Men, Women, Boys and Girls
To Take Advantage of This
Opportunity To Advance Mind

Don't spend time regretting. Use
it to make 1934 bigger and better.
How many good deeds are to your

"INTERNATIONALISM-
OUR SAVING GRACE"
So  Declares  C.  I1'.  McFadden   Before
the  Rotary  Club.
With the simplicity he employed
when superintendent of schools, C. P.
McFadden addressed the Rotarv club
of North Canton on the subject of
"Internationalism—Our Saving Grace"
on Thursday evening.
His speech proved that he is more
than a mere "spouter of words;" that
he is a philosophical student of life.
Quietly lie studied his subject, and
then traced, step by step, the development of "internationalism" from
the early foundation of the world to
the present day.
In this the ripened fruits of his
knowledge of the case, rather than in
any gift of oratory, is found the secret of his success in so many causes.
"Internationalism — Our Saving
Grace," was the title he gave to his
address.
He said while most nations trace
their origin to. savage and barbarous
men, our nation was founded by civilized and Christianized men. Mr. McFadden recited the history of the coming of foreign immigrants to our
shores and the influence they have
had on our civilization and government.
Many other countries nave their
Revolutions; we have had an Evolution. In his opinion this is largely
due to the cosmopolitan character of
«ur people.
His creed for harmonious living
"with friends and neighbors, for pleasant relations between merchants and
customers and finally for proper conduct between nations is summed up
in the following poem:
If you would make your calling true
Four things you must observe to do:
To think without confusion, clearly,
To love your fellowman, sincerely,
To act from honest motives, purely,
To trust in heaven and God, securely.

WOMAN SUGGESTS A
TOPIC-IMPATIENCE
And Then After a Little Coaxing
She Agrees To Air Her Views.
They Are Well Worth Read-
and In the Opinion of The Sun
and Following In 1934.
AVOID   A   NASTY   TEMPER
Someone said once that the greatest
sin of all the ages, is not one of commission, but just simply not to grow.
It's a law of nature, as unalterable
as the laws of the Medes and. Persians that the tree or any living thing
that reaches maturity and ceases to
grow, doesn't stand still, but immediately to some degree, however
slight, begins to decay, and go backwards. The beginning of a new year
is a good time to ponder this once
again.
What are your interests? Are they
indoor? Or does the great outdoors
appeal to you ? Would you like to
have company in the things you like
to do ?
Registration  Period
The Community Building is setting
aside the time from January 2nd to
Jan. 15, as registration period, when
young men and senior members may
register for membership in a club or

psychology,  vocational  training,   Biblical interpretation, science and relig-1

book   and    magazine    clubs,   current'
events, salesmanship, public speaking,
preparation for marriage and personal budgeting.
Many Subjects

WOMAN well known to many
persons in North Canton and its
vicinity was in The Sun office
yesterday and when asked what she
desired more than anything else during 1934 she quickly replied, "Patience." Then she added, "Why not
write an article for The Sun on patience?"
"Suppose you tell the readers of
The Sun what you think of impatience,"  we   suggested.
"Why, 1 never wrote an article for
a newspaper in my life."
"So much the  better.   Your views
will  be fresher  than the  usual  grist
from  a  professional's   pen."   So  she
consented, and below are her views:
A Woman's Views
"Impatience is greatly responsible
for many of the trials and tribulations of today. We might even call
this an age of impatience.
"During the years of plenty following the World War we were in
the habit of getting about everything
we wanted. If we didn't have the
money our credit was good.
Credit Not So Good
"After the financial smashup many
people found that their credit was not
as good as formerly, that the things
we wanted could be had only when
the merchant was mighty sure of his
money.
"This didn's suit millions of people
who had become accustomed to say
'charge it.' And oven those who were
successful in 'having it charged'
found payday not only unwelcome, but
at times mighty inconvenient.
Reduced   Incomes
"We became impatient over our reduced incomes. We were impatient with the merchant for hinting
that cash would ,be acceptable.
"Impatience crept in because we
found it necessary to retrench, and as
the long depression caused a general
tightening of belts we just naturally
sunk into a general mood of impatience with about everything and everybody.
Try( a   New   Resolution
"1 seldom advise people to make
new resolutions at the beginning of
the year, because nobody ever remembers them. But I do believe it would
be well to make 1034 a year of patience, because the patient person' has
a way of inspiring respect and confidence.
"Patience is a virtue. Impatience
is a destroyer of tranquility and the
father of nasty tempers."
To the above, The Sun says Amen.
Our friend certainly knows what she
is talking about.
Our Governing Body
THIS week Mayor Frank M. Evans, Clerk Lester Braucher,
Treasurer   Guy   Price;   Councilmen   Baab,   Becher,   Gill,
Mansfield, Smith, Waltenbaugh; Police Marshal Bachtel;
Board of Public Affairs members Stover, Moledor and Werst-
ler entered upon  another term  as  officials  elected   by  the
people.
The work of the above-named men in the interest of
North Canton could not be criticized, even by the most carping spirit, so the voters wisely decided to keep them in office.
Three members of the Board of Education, Price, Mohler
and Powell, were retained, as was A. J. Willaman,' clerk of.
Plain township.
That North Canton is the best governed town of its size
in Ohio can not be disputed. The slimy word "graft" has
never been applied to any elected official in this town, past
or present, and except in one instance (a policeman several
years ago) no man appointed by a Mayor of North Canton
has ever been accused of neglecting his duty.
This is an excellent reputation for a town of 2500 people,
and it clearly proves what can be-done when the inhabitants
drop political party labels and. select men of known honesty
and industry. There are Republicans and Democrats holding
office in North Canton, but they were not elected as such.
The majority of our people are too intelligent to believe that
a man is a partner of the devil because he does not vote a
"straight", ticket.
That clay, thank God, is fast disappearing in every section of the United States, and it is a good thing for the public
that such is the case.

P.-TJIEETING
This is the second and last install-1
meat  of  the   letter   written   by   Mrs. I
Ruth M. Eschbach from Baguio, Philippine Islands.  The first appeared.last |
week. !
We enjoyed a line fellowship with
the missionaries from China during
July and August. There were only
about fifteen this year, most of them
were either members of the Northern
or Southern Baptist Missions. We
liked them so well we hope they soon
plan another vacation here.
Our church has been indirectly responsible- for organizing a sewing society among the American and European women, the purpose of which is
to render aid to any worthy cause.
They have volunteered to make up
several bolts of. material into shirts
and dresses to be used in our mountain stations, and recently they gave
our choir money to purchase two sets
of anthem books which are sadly
needed. They are making warm nightgowns and pajamas as a Christmas
gift to the tuberculosis patients in the
Baguio  hospital.
Community   Chorus
We have helped to organize a
Community Chorus among the American and European residents to provide some wholesome recreation and
entertainment. It meets once a month i
for dinner and a social sing.  The Dec-'
North Canton High will travel to
Brewster on Friday night, Jan. 5, to
play the high school there and will
then entertain Jackson township at
home on Saturday night, Dec. (1, at
7:30, in the Community  Building.
On Friday night the local high
teams divided honors at Fulton, the
Fulton reserves winning and the
North Canton varsity. The North
Canton reserves lineup was changed
by the shifting of two members of
that team to the varsity squad but
the game was never cinched and two
good shots could have tied it up in
the last minutes, Fulton winning by
a  Hi to  12  score.
A  Close   Battle
The varsity game proved to be a
close battle during the first half with
North Canton keeping the lead most
of the time but only by one or two
points.
The score was tied during the first
period at six all but North Canton
scored from the field while Fulton
added one point from the free throw
line to end the period at S to 7 in
favor of the visitors.
N.  C.   Goes  Ahead
In the second period Fulton scored
first, tieing the score at eight each.
At half time North Canton was again
leading by one point, 14 to 13. Playing a tight defense and finding the
hoop North Canton opened the third
Special to The Sun
Washington, Jan. 3—Senator Simeon D. Fess of Ohio, who is a candidate to succeed himself, has made a
number of enemies in the Republican
party owing to his statement that he
will oppose many of President Roosevelt's policies on the ground that they
are  not "constitutional."
Western Senators are more than
vexed at Fess' attitude. "He is
simply playing a cheap tune on a
wurnout piano to catch votes in Ohio,"
said one of them this morning. "Senator Fess deliberately overlooks the
fact that several million men have
work today, thanks to the President's
policies."
Congressmen Angry
A Congressman, high in the councils of the Republican party, made
the statement last night that Senator
Fess "Is going back to the days of
Joseph Foraker when the latter aa
Senator tried to block President Theodore Roosevelt. Everyone knows what
happened to Foraker. The people sent
him into retirement."
Cry  An  Old One
"The Constitution" has been the
cry of several men in Congress. Joe
Bailey of Texas, when in the House
and Senate, was defending the Constitution at every turn. The Lone
Star voters put an end to his talk.
Backing   the   President
Thousands of letters and telegrams
are pouring into Washington urging
Senators and Congressmen to "stand
by the President."
In the face of such support Senator
Fess is not going to get anywhere in
the opinion of the members of the
House and Senate. They recall that
when Fess was chairman ot the Republican National Committee he was
more or less a "common scold," and
even President Calvin Coolidge found
it necessary to ask him to keep-silent
on   the  third   term  question.

Sometimes, surely, we can go a little out of our way, make a few sacrifices, and help a good cause along.

Prof. Spanton for several years was
head of the department of English
literature in Akron U. before becoming  dean.
This will be no dull discourse but

Rev. Sam William, a Christian from .'
India and a product of Lutheran Mis- j
sions there, preached a splendid sermon in our morning service during i -^
the conference. In this morning ser-! Mate

present: Indian, American, Swiss,
Russian, German, Filipino, Chinese,
English and Korean. Carl was very
much pleased to meet Walter Zimmerman, formerly a Secretary in
Youngstown and Van Wert, Ohio. He

Getting In Right

"But, on reflection, who wants to

[OFFICIAL]
To whom it may concern: In a further effort to stimulate tax collections
by making more convenient methods
of collection, John W. Rost, county
treasurer, lias inaugurated a tax bill
mailing list system which will be permanent and  perpetual.
This new policy is a courtesy extended to the public by the office of
the county treasurer and follows
closely the announcement of last week
informing the taxpayers of the installment plan of taxpaying of which
many have taken advantage.
Cards for mailing list information
are now available at the office of the
county treasurer and may be obtained
by writing or calling at that office.
The file will be permanent and
year after year, one request card being all that the taxpayer
| need   fill   out   unless   because   of   a
; change in address or transfer of real
- estate.
Following receipt of the card properly filled out no further correspondence is necessary on the part of the
taxpayer to secure subsequent statements.
j The taxpayers are strongly urged
to take advantage of the system as a
i convenience to themselves.
! It is planned, also, to have mailing
curds available at banks in smal!
towns .and villages throughout the
county as a further convenience to
the taxpayer.   .

MOUNTAINS MOVE
Uneasy mountains in France and
Switzerland, not volcanoes hut apparently solid masses of earth and
lock that seemed to be trying to move
to another location, have interested
scientists. Now from Colorado comes
a report that the United States also
has a troublesome mountain.
Like the restless hills of Europe
this Colorado peak is being disturbed
by subterranean slides, which have
split the mountain and are sending
thousands of tons of rock in avalanches down the slopes. To the geologist, there is nothing surprising about
this but we have been so accustomed
to thinking of mountains as immovable that these eccentricities seem extremely startling.
