Interesting program on the japanese
art, "Jiu Jitsu." This will be a
very interesting program and there
will be no admission charge; so
come early and keep BOOSTING
THE SCOUTS.
Summary For Year
The local troop has been organ
lied for about two years, and it now
, has six first class scouts and ten
second class scouts, besides about a
dozen Tender-foot scouts. Last
summer, Is boys from this troop
enjoyed ten days at the area camp
at Luke Chute. Besides the regular
meetings of the troop each week at
their headquarters in the Baptist
church Sunday school room, several
special activities during the past
year, are as follows: Receiving Of
badges at three court of honor
meetings.; in charge of traffic and
parking Of cars at Chautauqua;
guarded the wreck of the Shenan-
doah at Olive Green; four over night
hikes, one on the visit at the Ohio
Power plant at Philo distribution Of
II baskets OF food at Thanksgiving
time; collection and repair of toys
for community Christmas tree;
scout field cay on common; demon
stration at farmers institute. and
the scout show last Monday night,
and the other activities of the pres
ent week. Although the boys are
still boys" and they sometimes
find time for a little mischief, it
will be seen that they have tried TO
live up 20 their motto, BE Prepar-
ed" and have rendered little SER
vice 10 their community, their ma
ton and various organizations
They have also made a number of
models OF wcod-craft, which are now
on display in the window of the
Morris Hardware Co.. and which are
well worth seeing. It is hoped that
the balance of the weeks program
VIII be well attended, especially the
meeting at the high school this ev-
enine: and that the community will
continue to encourage the scouts and
their organization in their future ac-
tivities.
We Thank You
The scout show at the opera house
Monday night, with radio pro
gram, most amusing comedy and
a very fine motion picture, was de-
Clared TO be very pleasing pro-
gram and great laugh maker; but
we regret to say it was not a money
maker. The show was fine, clean
and varied; and the boys worked
hard to put it over; but the at
tendance was only fair. We wish
to publicly thank the 156 adults,
and all the children present for
their patronage. and we trust that
the ones not present will be pre-
pared to financially help this worthy
organization, when the time comes
next month.

Same Thing Here

We can truthfully say amen
to the following statement of the
Summit County Labor News,
which appeared in it's "Hot
Shot" column a short time since.
The conditions exist in New
ark that are complained of in
Akron, and have disrupted and
put an end to friendships of
many years standing.
The article referred to says:
1--WE sometimes wonder if Ak
ron is the City of Opportunity or
the City of Hatred. Under the
guise of patriotism and appeal
ing to religious and racial pref
ddice an organization was form
ed some time ago and today we
are still getting the reaction of
the education of it's membership.
The judiciary, the ministry, the
press, the two political parties

Board of Health

Council confirmed the May
or's appointment of J. H. Butler
as member of the Board of
Health, Monday night. 1t has
been rumored that the gradual
placing of persons on this board
who are antagonistic to our
present Health Commissioner is
a pet plan of the Mayor, who
has been cunning for Dir.
Knauss ever since he first grab
bed hold of the steering gear OF
the city. Nothing would give
His Honor greater JOY than to
strip off Docs hide and nail it
on the barn door. Whether he
will work out his plan success
fully or not remains to be seen.
The citizens of Newark think
DR.. Knauss is the right man IL
the right place and are not hank
ering after any change. Better
let well enough alone.

Poor Business

Great dissatisfaction has pre-
vailed among automobile owners
over the poor arrangements;
made for securing licenses for
their machines.
They could only be obtained
at one place, and applicants had
to stand in line for hours to get
a chance to buy a tag. Numbers
of persons being unable to wait,
were compelled to leave and re-
turn a second and sometimes a
third time to get waited on, and
many were compelled to cease
using their machines because of
the impossibility to buy tag.
Would it not be a much better
arrangement to have licenses on
sale at a number of filling sta
tions in different sections of the
city so that no delay may occur
when those needing them apply &?
This would be a great conven-
ience to the public and would
give general satisfaction.

City dope"

Among the latest stories in
circulation concerning coming
events in municipal matters,
which is alleged to contain more
truth than poetry, is one which
runs about as follows:
The Mayor has got the detec-
tive bee in his bonnet and longs
to achieve fame and distinction
on the pathway made famous BY
old Cap Collier, of cheap fiction
notoriety and other notables of
that ilk.
He would don the uniform and
gird on the trappings Of a truly
important position in the crime
detective department of New
ark, in fact he has his eye on the
job of Chief Of Police, and if the
story is correct he will in the not
very far distant future resign
the office to which he has just
been reelected and thus permit
Frank Bailey, president of coun-
Gil, to step in and assume the
Job.
Frank will then appoint his
good friend w. H. Nyril as the
permanent chief of police, and
thus settle all the neverending
scrapping over the question of
"who is it today?"
This is alleged to be the real
true reason why the Mayor has
as yet made no permanent ap-
pointment for this important
position. He wants the job him
self, and if he should happen to
name a man who was legally
qualified and wanted to hold OH
it might be a difficult matter to
pry him loose when the time
came to let the Mayor step in
and take charge.
The "Ilired Man" does net
give this story as authentic, but
merely as a repetition of some OF
the stories now in circulation.
Think 1t over and make your
own deductions.
The Hired Man." being well
acquainted with Mr.. Bailey, and
knowing he has a mind of his
own and a good stiff spinal
column, does not believe he
would lend himself to any such
scheme, but having the best in
terest of the city at heart would
be glad of a chance to let the
over-officious mayor slide into
the discard for good and all if
opportunity presents; and
should he be called upon to as
sumo the office of mayor he
would not appoint Stevens to
the coveted office of police chief.

Here, What's Up?

In passing out the plums at
the other nights council meet
ing the dads either inadvertent-
ly or with malice aforethought
completely sidestepped and ig-
nored the position of sergeant
alarms.
J. |. Smith has performed the
duties of this position for the
past two years in most compet-
ent and painstaking manner, and
his friends expected he would
get a second whack at the job,
as did the other officials ap-
pointed by council. But the
gods willed otherwise, and so
far the job remains untitled.

RESOLUTIONS FOR 1926

Resolve to be a Union man
With all that it implies;
Don't smoke non-union made cigars
While right before your eyes
Each day you see a Union man,
A friend and comrade, 700,
Go idle, who would gladly make
A Union smoke for you.
Don't miss your Union meetings,
It's the chronic absentees
Who retard the Unions progress
They're the hardest bunch to please
Don't start the year by buying
A non-union suit or hat
No conscientious Urion man
Would do a trick like that.
In short, remember all the time
The Label is your friend;
And if a Stacker you have been
Resolve your ways to mend.
Get in the Union Label game,
Put in it your best licks;
Shut out the sweat shop advocates

A Good Choice

The Mayor made a wise selec-
ton when he picked Carl
Ankele, of the Park National
Bank, for member of the board
of sinking fund trustees. Mr..
Ankele has had wide experience
in financial affairs and is we'll
qualified in every way to fill the
responsible position to which he
has been appointed.

termed as double dealing"

supposed to have been promised the
first senatorial vacancy, for his time
and money. When the vacancy did
occur, Bossert was placed on the
shelf and Robinson given the place.
In the ranks of the Bossert group
now are found all the former friends
of Watson, Robinson and Jackson,

man Of the screen has been choking
beautiful maidens and trying to COM
NIT other atrocities, but the eontinu-

the crucial moment and queered his
act. At last, however, George has
been allowed to get away with it. This
particular assault and battery is COM
mitted upon sleepy military guard
in "The Palace Of Pleasure" showing
at the Weir theater Friday and Sat

ters an effective trouncing, but he
takes the guards uniform and dis
guises himself to the advantage Of

Seigmann's speciality has been chokz
ing beautiful women. In Shame he
