"DID   YOU    HEAR   NEWS?"
The state examiner's report designating certain expenditures in North
Canton and other villages as "illegal,"
may startle some people, but no one
familial- '.villi the facts.
Merely another case, of saying a
man is ignorant because he failed to
put. a dot over the letter i.
During intervals in 1935 and 193G
road oil purchases were made as funds
were available. The streets were becoming dusty and oil treatment was
necessary. North Canton having no
facilities for oil storage and not having funds to pm'chase large quantities
at any one time was compelled to buy
all road oil in small quantities from
J. C. & D. F. Mcintosh of Canton.
This firm was the only one in this
vicinity with storage room for carload quantities and could deliver less
than carload lots.
No  Opportunity  To  Advertise
It is obvious that there was no opportunity to advertise for bids or enter into a contract when the quantities and times of delivery were unknown and the village dare not obligate itself for any minimum quantity.
So that explodes the "wonderful
story of have you heard?" The Sim
has been attending meetings of Council for more than 15 years, and it
never saw anything deliberately illegal, and this newspaper feels sure
the state examiner will bear out this
statement. He has two good eyes and
he uses them.

Before the election of Jame:
as chairman, Mayor Evans presided.
He called upon the town's legal advisor, Attorney Albert Arbaugh, to
explain in detail the purpose of the
meeting.
Mr. Arbaugh said that VV. II.
(Boss) Hoover had left in his will the
sum of $1500, thc income to bo used
for the maintenance of a playground.
H. W. Hoover and Frank Hoover had
called attention to the fact that the
money was "inactive," and they suggested that it be used for the purpose
their father intended it to be used.
Mr. Arbaugh recommended a nonprofit corporation.- He said-that under
the terms of Mr. Hoover's will the
trustees must be residents of North
Canton, but no child would be rc--
fusecTadmittanee to the playground if
the child attended any school here.

able and logical for a citizen of
North Canton and its vicinage to buy
something outside the community.
Even in large metropolitan stores one
cannot always get just exactly what
ono wants or needs for some particular purpose  or occasion.
But it is possible to direct a large
amount of your retail buying through
local establishments whose advertisements appear in The Sun. These advertisers have an excellent stock of
merchandise, and the prices are right.
Also keep in mind the old saying, "Go
farther and fare worse." Then, too,
keep in the front of your mind that
the business and professional men of
North Canton support its varied public activities.   They contribute to our
local   government,   our   schools,   our
churches, our local institutions of every description.   They  make  possible .
our seivice clubs and social activities.
They deserve your first consideration.
The Sun is not asking you to support your local merchant for the i
above reasons alone. This newspaper
merely advises you lo help maintain ;
the business life of this community
because you thereby sene youi own
interests. ;
Thc value of your properly, the ,
character of the public service given '
in Norlh Canton and the nature of
the social and fraternal life of the i
community all hinge upon the prosperity of local business. When you j
do your bit to help make it better you !
are still furthering your own interests, i
Think it over.   Then give the home
town   business  man  "a  break."
