Damaged by Fire
North Canton Department Answers Alarm on Harrisburg Rd
Fire early Tuesday afternoon completely ruined the kitchen at the
George A. Kinney home on the Har-
risburg-Alliance road causing an estimated damage of several hundred
dollars.
Firemen are at a loss to account for
the blaze other than resulting when
the side of an aluminum cooking utensil melted and allowed hot grease to
set fire to the floor and then work
its way up the wall near the stove.
Mrs. Kinney had left the kettle on j
the stove and then gone upstairs for
a short nap but when she awoke
found the house filled with smoke.
She jumped from the upstairs window
and struck a brick support surrounding a window pit and injured her ankles. She was taken to Mercy hospital for treatment and then discharged.
When Jocal firemen answered the
alarm, flames had spread up the walls
and eaten into the joists thence breaking out on the porch roof. Prior to
their arrival neighbors battled the
flames but to no avail. Firemen re-1
ported the loss would have been much
greater had there been a draft but
fortunately all windows and doors
were closed until the fire was discovered.
Heat was' so intense in the kitchen
that a loaf of bread setting on the
table midway in the room was toasted
black through and through and the
telephone receiver hanging on the
wall opposite the stove had melted.
The kitchen interior was entirely
razzed, the plaster having fallen from
walls and ceiling and most of the
furnishings throughout the house were
black from smoke.

Have Narrow Escape
From Seridusl Injury
Two Car Crash Involves Several
North Canton Youths
Several North Cantpn youths had
a narrow escape from serious injury
Friday afternoon when, the two cars
in which they were riding were involved in an accident in front of the
F. L. Hoare home on Portage street.
The two cars were enroute to Canal Fulton where they were to drive
through that community calling attention to the Band carnival being
held in North Canton. A few of the
school youth were riding on the outside of the cars both on the fenders
and  running board.
The leading car was brought to a
stop near the Hoare home as the
driver insisted that those outside get
inside. No sooner had they complied
with his request by starling to get
into the car, when the second car
came around the curve and crashed
into it.
The. operator of the second car revealed he had applied brakes but that
the slippery pavement prevented him
from stopping with the resulting
crash which knocked the parked car
into  a  nearby telephone  pole.
Two girls, riding on the fenders of
the moving vehicle, jumped when they
saw the crash was unavoidable and
thus saved themselveB from more
serious injury.
Injuries for the most part were confined to sprains and bruises although
one girl suffered a dislocation in her
arm.
Reelect Greentown
Superintendent
W.   C.   Hushour Rehired After
Lengthy Board Meeting
Greentown Board of Education met
Monday evening to discuss the hiring
of teachers for the next school year
and renamed W. C. Houshour as superintendent after a heated discussion
in which one member resigned his position.
There had been some agitation to
prevent his- reappointment but the
townspeople took up his fight and
presented the board with a petition
with 440 names advocating his return
as superintendent. The petition was
presented to the board by Malcom
Shook.
The vote at first was against Mr.
Hushour but when one member's resignation was accepted and Lester
Bishop nominated and elected to fill
the vacancy the application was reread and the board moved and seconded his rehiring.
Evalyn Miller, Adalyn Richards, R.
J. Myers, Lillian Witwer, R. W. Coyle,
Phyllis Banter, Ralph Pontius, P. K.
Shaffer, and Virginia Wagner were
rehired as instructors. A. W. Silverstein will again be in charge of the

Eugene Arnold Dead
.■*       _ *
"Was    Funeral   Director    Here
Prior to 1918
Word has been received here ox-Hie
sudden death of Eugene J. Arnold,
50, Sunday, from a heart attack following a brief illness, at his home in
Claysville,  Pa.
The eldest son of Mr. and Mrs, J.
L. Arnold of Canton, he had been a
funeral director in North Canton prior
to 1918 when he sold his business and
entered the employe of the Hoover
company in the sales department.
Services were held .Tuesday afternoon at 3:30 J5. jn. in the J. L. Arnold
and sons parlors in charge of the
Rev. R. W. Blemker. Burial was
made in Westlawn cemetery.
Besides his parents he is survived
by his widow, Mrs. Anna L. Arnold;
a sister, Miss Hilda F. Arnold, three
brothers, Carl P. Arnold, Herman A.
Arnold, and Franklin J. Arnold all
of Canton.
Word has been received from the
State department at Washington by
the Rev. and Mrs. M. E. Beck that a
cousin, the Rev. Edwin Beck has been
located near Yo Yang in China, a
virtual prisoner in the church compound.
There had been no news from Reverend Beck since November 29 and
all efforts to contact him met with
failure until just recently when the
American consul was notified of his
whereabouts and in turn cabled Cordell Hull, secretary of state.
According to what little information
has been gleaned Reverend Beck and
the 50 Chinese who are confined with
him were without food for. quite some
time since no one could either get in
or out of the compound due to the
heavy Japanese guard. However,
along with the cable came news that
he is being cared for by a Japanese
doctor.
Yo Yang was completely destroyed
by the Japanese and the Rev. Mr.
Beck witnessed the destruction from
a location four miles from the city.
The city is deserted.
The place where the missionary ls
confined is about 300 miles from Hankow at the headwaters of the Yangtze river and quite inaccessible which
'made it difficult to establish connections with the beleaguered party.
- How long they will be confined-to
the compound is not definitely known
but it is thought they will have no
opportunity to leave ui»til the war is
over.

Robert Marchand, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur Marchand of Warren,
former residents of this community,
is a candidate for the Bachelor' of
Science degree at John Carroll university and has distinguished himself
as a student.
His scholastic achievements have
secured for him a scholarship to the
University of Cincinnati where he
plans to continue his studies in the
field of medicine.
While his parents lived here he received his elementary training at St.
Paul's Parochial school. Just before
entering high school they moved to
Warren where he began his high
school career. He became one of
Warren high's most outstanding students and leaders. . ,-'
Determined to follow medicine, he
enrolled at John Carroll and was' one
of the first students to sleep in, the
unfinished dormitory. At Carroll he
joined the Glee club, the Sodality,
and the Scientific academy as a freshman.
Threatening weather failed to
dampen the ardor of an overwhelming
crowd which attended the two night
band carnival sponsored by the North
Canton School Band association at
the high school grounds Friday and
Saturday.
Six bands including North Canton
appeared in concert during the two
evenings. Canal Fulton, Hartville,
and the local contingent played for
the entertainment on Friday evening
and Greentown, Louisville, Middle-
branch, and North Canton filled out
the musical portion of the festivities
on  the   succeeding _ evening.
In case there were complaints of
sore arma on the part of some of the
older members of the community these
can be traced directly back to the
baseball throwing stand operated by
the Eagles lodge. On both evenings
there were plenty of chuckers trying
to "spill the milk".
There were high, low, wide, fast,
and slow balls hurled at the bottles
by both young and old but it took
the youngsters to show their elders
how it was done. Time after time an
older person would throw as hard as
possible and maybe get them all down
but one or two. Then up would step
a youngster whom you think couldn't
knock over a toothpick and blooey,
over went the bottles on the first
throw.
Bands  Well  Received
The various stands were scattered
around the outside edge of the
grounds while the band stand was
given the central spot in the center.
As each number was concluded by the
various bands the applause was loud
and long as the youthful musicians
gave out with*all they had mixing up
their numbers skillfully. Of course,
each band had its followers from the
home town but it didn't prevent those
whose turn was coming up from also
joining in the applause for it was
just one big happy family out to entertain the crowd.
On Saturday it appeared for a
while that rain was going to force
those in charge to take the carnival
inside. However, shortly before 6 p.
m. the clouds began to break and a
few minutes later the sun was shining through to brighten the hopes
of everyone.
Less than an hour later people
were beginning to congregate on the
grounds and the evening's fun was
started. Stands were kept busy
throughout the night dishing out
noodle soup, chili, "sandwiches, ice
cream, neanuts, coffee, crackerjack,
■in fact everything that is generally
associated with the' eating side of a
carnival.
Even after the bands had concluded
their part in the program people remained on the grounds and it was
after 2 a. m, in the morning before
the last vestiges of the carnival,
namely dishes, etc. were finally cleaned up.
Gifts were distributed to those at-1
tending on both evenings with the |
grand awards being made on Saturday. All were on display at a stand
on the east side of the grounds. The
radio was awarded to Ralph Taylor
while the grand award, a Hoover
sweeper, now graces the home of Mrs.
Minnie  Stahler  of  Newcomerstown.
Children  Have  Fun  Also
The youngsters also came in for
their share' of fun during the two
nights keeping members of the Junior Woman's club busy as they clamored around the fish pond.
The committees in charge .of the
va/ious booths and those who made
thj; arrangements declared the entire
venture a success and were well i
satisfied with the turnout and wish to
thank all the merchants who cooperated in any way toward the success
of the carnival.
The School Band association also
wishes to thank everyone and extends an invitation to anyone so interested to join the association and
help promote the interests of the
band.
Proceeds from the carnival will bo
used to help the payments on the uni- j
forms purchased for the band. I

Officers  Also  Elected  at  Last
Rotary Club Meeting
Newly elected board of directors of
North Canton Rotary club met Thursday and elected officers for the year
beginning July 1.
Thomas G. Denton was elected
president, Ervin Royer, vice president; the Rev. N. B. Emch, secretary;
Ralph Young, treasurer; and Todd
Eaver, Sergeant-at-arms.
Lester Schug, Scoutmaster of the
Christian church was guest speaker
of the evening and he discussed scouting in the United States and in other
countries. Mr. Schug revealed scouting is represented in 73 countries with
the exception of Italy, Germany and
Russia, the ban being for politicaf
reasons, the same reasons for which
Rotary has been outlawed in these
countries.
The speaker stated there were more
than 40,000 scouting units in the
United States with more than 1,300,-
000 scouts enrolled. The units are
40 per cent sponsored by churches
since they look upon scouting as a
helpful aid in the youth problem.
It was also brought out that one
out of every 15 persons in North Canton is connected with scouting. This
ranks close to the top of any community  so  represented.
Mr. Schug concluded his talk telling of the 12 tests of scouting, the
different ranks, merit badges, etc.,
and revealed there are eight Eagle
Badge owners in the community.
