He is qualified for the position by studious preparation .and education, and is secretary of several organizations that contribute to the work of the C. C. C. Herman L.

Experimentalists find that the vitamin C content of the cow's feed influences the amount of this vitamin In the milk. > Attempts to cure soybean hay in the swath have not proved 'as successful as the combination swath and windrow method. Dates for the annual Ohio Club Congress, for 4-H members, at the Ohio State University, Columbus, are September 17 to 22. About 350 will attend. Ohio farmers now have about 42,000 more breeding ewes than they had last Fall. But owing to a smaller number of Iambs saved, the lamb crop is expected to be only one per cent larger. Percentage reduction in pig numbers made under the corn-hog program is the sharpest that has occurred within a century. It is more than twice as sharp as the 14 per cent reduction in 1925, when the first post-war depression struck agriculture. .

Clean-up ' work and arranging of textbooks and supplies and other material are rapidly being completed in anticipation of the opening of school on Monday, September 10. Parents should see that their children are in proper physical condition for the opening of school. This may prevent much absence during the school year. Teeth and eyes are two things that often handicap children. No Kindergarten Replies to the questionnaire which was sent out recently to those parents who had children of kindergarten age have been received. There were not sufficient replies to this questionnaire to warrant the board making any definite plans for kindergarten. Summer School Credits Quite a number of pupils took work in McKinley summer school in Canton, either to make up deficiencies or ■to make advanced credit. Pupils who received credit for this work should turn in their credit cards in the high school immediately, if they have not already done so. Schedule Date Sept. 4 Tuesday, September 4, has been set as the final day for high school pupils to sign up for their work for next year. A large majority of the pupils have already done this but there may be a few who have moved into the community who have not registered. If any of those who have already registered want to make changes in their work they are also asked to come in on the same day. The office of the high school will be open from 9:00 to 11:30 a.m. and from l.:00 to 4:00 p.m. First Grade Pupils All pupils who are entering the first grade this year are a§ked to come to the grade school building on Saturday, September 8, between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. to register and get acquainted with the teachers. They will need to be there a very short time. If parents wish to come and meet the teachers at that time, we will be glad to have them do so. It will be necessary that all first grade pupils bring their birth certificate with them on Saturday when they come. Parents are requested not to come on Monday. Pupils adjust themselves more quickly if they are left alone. The office of the high school will be open on Saturdav afternoon, September 8, from 1:00 to 3:30 to give out schedules to any pupils who want to get them or to make any changes which they desire to make.

The city of Dayton, which for several years has extended an invitation to the Department of Ohio, will be the scene of the 1935 convention and their good sportsmanship in stepping aside for other cities in the past year or two, promises that they are going to be royal bouts.

Rempe On Thursday Evening. Rotaryanns are included in next Thursday's Rotary meeting, which will be a farewell meeting to the Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Paul A. Rempe and .their family. A special quartette will furnish some of the entertainment and the Rev..Mr. Hax of Massillon, a "long time" friend of the. Rempe family will give an address. Because of "Paul's" resignation, C. F. McFadden was elected secretary, Clarence J. Rohrer was elected a member of the board, and Yale Strausser was given the chairmanship of the program committee. Todd Eaver was the speaker of the evening and gave a talk that was much appreciated. Six visitors were present. STARK COUNTY FAIR GETTING UNDER WAY He's Been Doing This for Years 'Won't Be Long Now" Until One of the Greatest Exhibitions Ever Seen Will Be Attracting People From the Farms, the Factories, Stores and Offices. ADMITTANCE PRICE LOW Ohio State American Legion Drum and Bugle corps championship for the second consecutive year," states the Star-Journal of Sandusky. Second place in the contest went to Elyria with only a tenth of a point below Massillon. . The other corps in the order they placed in the contest were Dover, third; Lima, fourth; Lorain, fifth; Alliance, sixth; Berea, seventh; Toledo, Weller, eighth; NeJsonville, ninth; and Dayton, tenth. Immediate Payment of Bonus Favored The resolutions committee of the convention presented both a majority and a minority report on the bonus issue. The majority report favored deferred payment; the minority report immediate payment. William Vance of Urbana, former prosecutor of Champaign county, took ,' the floor in favor of the minority re- j port. _ " | Vance said the administration js' "stayinsr up nights" trying to figure j [Continued on back page] ,' Planning for one of the biggest and best Stark county fairs ever held is now in progress. Re-modeling of buildings is about completed. The grand stand is being painted and repaired, including cement floors in all the booths in the merchants hall beneath the grand stand. The general appearance of the grounds and buildings will be second to none in the state this year. There will be many features of the fair this year that will interest everybody. One of these will be an exhibit of fifty Hereford steer calves by boys and girls 4-H-Beef Calf club of Stark county. These calves will be shown in the grand stock parades each day and night of the fair and sold at public auction on Thursday, Sept. (ith, last day of the fair. Turn out and encourage young America in their efforts to raise better beef for Stark county. Six-Horse Hitch A feature never before seen at the Stark county fair will be a six horse hitch, consisting of six Belgian sorrel horses with white manes and tails to be driven by an expert driver. They will be exhibited each afternoon and night on the race track in front of the grand stand. The harness used on these horses cost $1500.00. This exhibition alone will be worth the price of admission and should be witnessed by everyone in Stark county. The progress of a county or state is always depicted by their fairs and expositions, this accounts for one of the leading county fairs in Ohio being held in Stark county each year. Every progressive citizen has an interest in the fair, for the educational benefits derived work to the advantage of all. Everyone Co-operating The new ideas you will gather from this fair will be worth your time. It will be an exposition reflecting the agricultural, industrial and commercial achievements of this section. This year with the hearty co-operation of the people in general, Stark county fair can be placed at the top of the list of fairs in Ohio, a position she occupied in fairdom in 1925. The fair board will do all in their power to conduct a big fair, furnishing plenty of educational and amusement features for less cost to the patrons than can be had at any other place during the year. The fair is Stark county's real annual event. The price of admission for this year is only 25 cents. This should afford to all the opportunity to attend and thus obtain more real enjoyment and education than from any other source during the year. A County Institution The fair is a county institution, owned by Stark county and operated by a board of directors or managers. If the fair proves a success and makes money it belongs to the county; if on the other hand the fair is a failure and loses money, it is the county's loss, therefore by attending and boosting your fair you can help to put on a successful fair, thus proving that the fair is a real county institution that will be worthy of the support of the whole community. Stark county can receive more real publicity throughout Ohio by a big* and well conducted county fair than from any other source. Ready For Entries Entries for the fair will be taken at the office on the fair grounds any day during the week preceding the ] fair. i N Remember the Stark county fair j will open on Labor day, September 3 and close on Thursday night, Septem- J ber (i. Arrange to spend your vaea- i tion at the fair this year and by so ; doing you will receive much valuable information ami at the same time be royally entertained by good clean [ amusement features. Don't forget | that the price of admission is only 25 cents. I For further information address, j Ed. S. Wilson, Secretary, Cairton, O. "V^rSeva* As The Sun Sees It Without Prejudice Then and Now WE CAN remember when candidates and nominees expounded their theories of national, state and local government. In those days^ they were men of courage and conviction who were not averse to making their views known to the voters. That was then. Today we go to political meetings and listen to the candidates of one party villify everything in connection with the opposition party. They talk loudly and say little that means anything. If they have a bonafide theory of government they keep it carefully hidden from the voters, contenting themselves with dealing in generalities that are of no consequence. And in that kind of an atmosphere the voters are expected to determine the candidates that are best fitted for public office. That is now. It may be true that the nation is progressing politically, but we are keeping pace with the crab in its backward stride. The Silver Shirts K. of P.

They have collected arms and ammunition and have been drilling secretly against the day when open revolt is to be proclaimed.

It is but a step from a parade to the battlefield. A Stale" World FIREMEN ON LADDERS EXPLAIN LIFE SAVING Chief Joe Smith's Smoke Eaters Put On Demonstration In Presence of Big Wigs of Several Fire Departments and Visitors From Portage County THRILLS IN PERFORMANCE REGARDLESS of the frequent turmoils and upheavals, this is a stale old world. Here are a few samples: For many months everybody was talking about the New Deal, and of what it would or would not do for the people. Now most of the talk is by those actively engaged in its promotion. Others are weary of the subject—it has been talked to death. Dillinger was a front page sensation for months. Now he is among the forgotten. The depression ? Why, the old thing has become so commonplace it has almost ceased to be a subject of conversation. Then there is the drouth, which destroyed crops, and the- intense heat which parched and shriveled human hides. We have become accustomed to them and are about ready to forget. Sensations of today are stale stuff tomorrow. There is little in life which commands our active attention for any length of time. Humanity itself is becoming stale for some of its finest instincts are fading away. We remember a little, forget much. Such is life today. LICE AND RED MITES BOTHERING CHICKENS Come With Hot Weather; Oil and Nicotine Check Them. Hot weather offers the poultryman an opportunity to rid his hens and poultry house of two bothersome parasites, red mites and lice. These parasites, according to C. M. Ferguson, extension poultryman for the Ohio State University, are appearing by thousands, pestering chickens while they roost and nest. Frequent applications of waste motor oil to the roosts and nests satisfactorily check mites, Ferguson reports. Carbolinium, although somewhat more expensive, does the job in one thorough treatment. Lice are held in check by painting the roost with a small amount of nicotine sulphate just before roosting time. This material is applied with a small paint brush or through an oil can. In order to be certain of a cleanup, the process must be repeated in 10 days. During the treatment the house must be well ventilated so that the nicotine fumes, which smother the lice, do not irritate the birds. The nicotine sulphate method supplants the older, more bothersome so dium fluoride baths. It is equally effective, poultrymen tell Ferguson. Road Improvements Greater transportation facilities in Stark county to add to the comfort and convenience of motorists will result from the State Highway Department including 0.227 miles of highway improvement in the letting scheduled for August 31, 111.31 in Columbus.

A big city demonstration of fire department efficiency was staged by Fire Chief Joe Smith and the capable members of the North Canton fire department on Thursday night at the high school building, of which North Canton should be proud. The ladder drill and life saving demonstration would be a revelation to those who have never seen this work done. The ladder drill was an hour of intense physical work on the part of every fireman and consisted of raising ladders, climbing, coming down from high places on ropes, with or without belts, using hand lines to get apparatus on top of roofs, use of pike poles and extinguishers. Some Daring Acts The "high ceiling raise," is a ladder supported in an upright position by four ropes while a man climbs to the top. The "hotel raise" is placing a ladder perpendicular and parallel with the side of a building for persons to descend on both sides of the ladder. The "ladder shift" means moving a ladder from one window to another while the ladder remains extended to its full length. Demonstrations were shown of how to tie ropes about a man so that he may be lowered a considerable distance in comfort, and how to rescue a man with a rope sling. Only those who witnessed this event can appreciate what work it means for the members of North Canton fire department to keep in practice for an emergency that might call for any or all of these services to the town. One hundred and sixty-one firemen witnessed this proof of firemen efficiency including the fire chiefs from Akron, Goodyear, Hudson,. Louisville ami Lakemore. After the demonstration the firemen and some of the spectators went to Witwer park to listen to a fine concert by the North Canton band and to hear an address by C. F. McFadden on "Fire Department Work, and Insurance." A lunch of sandwiches and coffee was served to 230 persons. The firemen from Portage county were the guests of the North Canton laddies. Requests are coming in for the demonstration to be repeated at other places. COMMUNITY BUILDING Hoover Class A Softball League ' Wednesday evening, August 15, Baxter's 450's played vs. Fye's 100's.

Experimentalists find that the vitamin C content of the cow's feed influences the amount of this vitamin In the milk. > Attempts to cure soybean hay in the swath have not proved 'as successful as the combination swath and windrow method. Dates for the annual Ohio Club Congress, for 4-H members, at the Ohio State University, Columbus, are September 17 to 22. About 350 will attend. Ohio farmers now have about 42,000 more breeding ewes than they had last Fall. But owing to a smaller number of Iambs saved, the lamb crop is expected to be only one per cent larger. Percentage reduction in pig numbers made under the corn-hog program is the sharpest that has occurred within a century. It is more than twice as sharp as the 14 per cent reduction in 1925, when the first post-war depression struck agriculture. .

Clean-up ' work and arranging of textbooks and supplies and other material are rapidly being completed in anticipation of the opening of school on Monday, September 10. Parents should see that their children are in proper physical condition for the opening of school. This may prevent much absence during the school year. Teeth and eyes are two things that often handicap children. No Kindergarten Replies to the questionnaire which was sent out recently to those parents who had children of kindergarten age have been received. There were not sufficient replies to this questionnaire to warrant the board making any definite plans for kindergarten. Summer School Credits Quite a number of pupils took work in McKinley summer school in Canton, either to make up deficiencies or ■to make advanced credit. Pupils who received credit for this work should turn in their credit cards in the high school immediately, if they have not already done so. Schedule Date Sept. 4 Tuesday, September 4, has been set as the final day for high school pupils to sign up for their work for next year. A large majority of the pupils have already done this but there may be a few who have moved into the community who have not registered. If any of those who have already registered want to make changes in their work they are also asked to come in on the same day. The office of the high school will be open from 9:00 to 11:30 a.m. and from l.:00 to 4:00 p.m. First Grade Pupils All pupils who are entering the first grade this year are a§ked to come to the grade school building on Saturday, September 8, between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. to register and get acquainted with the teachers. They will need to be there a very short time. If parents wish to come and meet the teachers at that time, we will be glad to have them do so. It will be necessary that all first grade pupils bring their birth certificate with them on Saturday when they come. Parents are requested not to come on Monday. Pupils adjust themselves more quickly if they are left alone. The office of the high school will be open on Saturdav afternoon, September 8, from 1:00 to 3:30 to give out schedules to any pupils who want to get them or to make any changes which they desire to make.

STARK COUNTY FAIR GETTING UNDER WAY He's Been Doing This for Years 'Won't Be Long Now" Until One of the Greatest Exhibitions Ever Seen Will Be Attracting People From the Farms, the Factories, Stores and Offices. ADMITTANCE PRICE LOW Ohio State American Legion Drum and Bugle corps championship for the second consecutive year," states the Star-Journal of Sandusky. Second place in the contest went to Elyria with only a tenth of a point below Massillon. . The other corps in the order they placed in the contest were Dover, third; Lima, fourth; Lorain, fifth; Alliance, sixth; Berea, seventh; Toledo, Weller, eighth; NeJsonville, ninth; and Dayton, tenth. Immediate Payment of Bonus Favored The resolutions committee of the convention presented both a majority and a minority report on the bonus issue. The majority report favored deferred payment; the minority report immediate payment. William Vance of Urbana, former prosecutor of Champaign county, took ,' the floor in favor of the minority re- j port. _ " | Vance said the administration js' "stayinsr up nights" trying to figure j [Continued on back page] ,' Planning for one of the biggest and best Stark county fairs ever held is now in progress. Re-modeling of buildings is about completed. The grand stand is being painted and repaired, including cement floors in all the booths in the merchants hall beneath the grand stand. The general appearance of the grounds and buildings will be second to none in the state this year. There will be many features of the fair this year that will interest everybody. One of these will be an exhibit of fifty Hereford steer calves by boys and girls 4-H-Beef Calf club of Stark county. These calves will be shown in the grand stock parades each day and night of the fair and sold at public auction on Thursday, Sept. (ith, last day of the fair. Turn out and encourage young America in their efforts to raise better beef for Stark county. Six-Horse Hitch A feature never before seen at the Stark county fair will be a six horse hitch, consisting of six Belgian sorrel horses with white manes and tails to be driven by an expert driver. They will be exhibited each afternoon and night on the race track in front of the grand stand. The harness used on these horses cost $1500.00. This exhibition alone will be worth the price of admission and should be witnessed by everyone in Stark county. The progress of a county or state is always depicted by their fairs and expositions, this accounts for one of the leading county fairs in Ohio being held in Stark county each year. Every progressive citizen has an interest in the fair, for the educational benefits derived work to the advantage of all. Everyone Co-operating The new ideas you will gather from this fair will be worth your time. It will be an exposition reflecting the agricultural, industrial and commercial achievements of this section. This year with the hearty co-operation of the people in general, Stark county fair can be placed at the top of the list of fairs in Ohio, a position she occupied in fairdom in 1925. The fair board will do all in their power to conduct a big fair, furnishing plenty of educational and amusement features for less cost to the patrons than can be had at any other place during the year. The fair is Stark county's real annual event. The price of admission for this year is only 25 cents. This should afford to all the opportunity to attend and thus obtain more real enjoyment and education than from any other source during the year. A County Institution The fair is a county institution, owned by Stark county and operated by a board of directors or managers. If the fair proves a success and makes money it belongs to the county; if on the other hand the fair is a failure and loses money, it is the county's loss, therefore by attending and boosting your fair you can help to put on a successful fair, thus proving that the fair is a real county institution that will be worthy of the support of the whole community. Stark county can receive more real publicity throughout Ohio by a big* and well conducted county fair than from any other source. Ready For Entries Entries for the fair will be taken at the office on the fair grounds any day during the week preceding the ] fair. i N Remember the Stark county fair j will open on Labor day, September 3 and close on Thursday night, Septem- J ber (i. Arrange to spend your vaea- i tion at the fair this year and by so ; doing you will receive much valuable information ami at the same time be royally entertained by good clean [ amusement features. Don't forget | that the price of admission is only 25 cents. I For further information address, j Ed. S. Wilson, Secretary, Cairton, O. "V^rSeva* As The Sun Sees It Without Prejudice Then and Now WE CAN remember when candidates and nominees expounded their theories of national, state and local government. In those days^ they were men of courage and conviction who were not averse to making their views known to the voters. That was then. Today we go to political meetings and listen to the candidates of one party villify everything in connection with the opposition party. They talk loudly and say little that means anything. If they have a bonafide theory of government they keep it carefully hidden from the voters, contenting themselves with dealing in generalities that are of no consequence. And in that kind of an atmosphere the voters are expected to determine the candidates that are best fitted for public office. That is now. It may be true that the nation is progressing politically, but we are keeping pace with the crab in its backward stride. The Silver Shirts K. of P.

They have collected arms and ammunition and have been drilling secretly against the day when open revolt is to be proclaimed.

A Stale" World FIREMEN ON LADDERS EXPLAIN LIFE SAVING Chief Joe Smith's Smoke Eaters Put On Demonstration In Presence of Big Wigs of Several Fire Departments and Visitors From Portage County THRILLS IN PERFORMANCE REGARDLESS of the frequent turmoils and upheavals, this is a stale old world. Here are a few samples: For many months everybody was talking about the New Deal, and of what it would or would not do for the people. Now most of the talk is by those actively engaged in its promotion. Others are weary of the subject—it has been talked to death. Dillinger was a front page sensation for months. Now he is among the forgotten. The depression ? Why, the old thing has become so commonplace it has almost ceased to be a subject of conversation. Then there is the drouth, which destroyed crops, and the- intense heat which parched and shriveled human hides. We have become accustomed to them and are about ready to forget. Sensations of today are stale stuff tomorrow. There is little in life which commands our active attention for any length of time. Humanity itself is becoming stale for some of its finest instincts are fading away. We remember a little, forget much. Such is life today. LICE AND RED MITES BOTHERING CHICKENS Come With Hot Weather; Oil and Nicotine Check Them. Hot weather offers the poultryman an opportunity to rid his hens and poultry house of two bothersome parasites, red mites and lice. These parasites, according to C. M. Ferguson, extension poultryman for the Ohio State University, are appearing by thousands, pestering chickens while they roost and nest. Frequent applications of waste motor oil to the roosts and nests satisfactorily check mites, Ferguson reports. Carbolinium, although somewhat more expensive, does the job in one thorough treatment. Lice are held in check by painting the roost with a small amount of nicotine sulphate just before roosting time. This material is applied with a small paint brush or through an oil can. In order to be certain of a cleanup, the process must be repeated in 10 days. During the treatment the house must be well ventilated so that the nicotine fumes, which smother the lice, do not irritate the birds. The nicotine sulphate method supplants the older, more bothersome so dium fluoride baths. It is equally effective, poultrymen tell Ferguson. Road Improvements Greater transportation facilities in Stark county to add to the comfort and convenience of motorists will result from the State Highway Department including 0.227 miles of highway improvement in the letting scheduled for August 31, 111.31 in Columbus.

A big city demonstration of fire department efficiency was staged by Fire Chief Joe Smith and the capable members of the North Canton fire department on Thursday night at the high school building, of which North Canton should be proud. The ladder drill and life saving demonstration would be a revelation to those who have never seen this work done. The ladder drill was an hour of intense physical work on the part of every fireman and consisted of raising ladders, climbing, coming down from high places on ropes, with or without belts, using hand lines to get apparatus on top of roofs, use of pike poles and extinguishers. Some Daring Acts The "high ceiling raise," is a ladder supported in an upright position by four ropes while a man climbs to the top. The "hotel raise" is placing a ladder perpendicular and parallel with the side of a building for persons to descend on both sides of the ladder. The "ladder shift" means moving a ladder from one window to another while the ladder remains extended to its full length. Demonstrations were shown of how to tie ropes about a man so that he may be lowered a considerable distance in comfort, and how to rescue a man with a rope sling. Only those who witnessed this event can appreciate what work it means for the members of North Canton fire department to keep in practice for an emergency that might call for any or all of these services to the town. One hundred and sixty-one firemen witnessed this proof of firemen efficiency including the fire chiefs from Akron, Goodyear, Hudson,. Louisville ami Lakemore. After the demonstration the firemen and some of the spectators went to Witwer park to listen to a fine concert by the North Canton band and to hear an address by C. F. McFadden on "Fire Department Work, and Insurance." A lunch of sandwiches and coffee was served to 230 persons. The firemen from Portage county were the guests of the North Canton laddies. Requests are coming in for the demonstration to be repeated at other places. COMMUNITY BUILDING Hoover Class A Softball League ' Wednesday evening, August 15, Baxter's 450's played vs. Fye's 100's.
