Canton Reflector
By A, Rookie.

Canton, Ohio. Jan. 4Many
years ago l was dubbed Rookie"
by !. sang Of Saxon boys, most of
them active members of our club
at the present time. These fel-
lows agreed, since this is my in
augrral report that this name fits
in the groove just fine. All l need
is a diet of celery and a potent
hair grower to cultivate a sweep
ing beard. This combination will
at least make me look my role.
Canton Thanks You
It is from the heart that we
thank our Saxon friends near and
far for the cooperation we have
received during the past year.The
old year has certainly been one
of the best we have experienced
sin e T. D. R. introduced hisNew
Deal, and we are rather sorry to
see i, go, but are anticipating a
better understanding, a more pro-
gressive attitude and a friendlier
relationship among Our Saxons
during the coming year. Let's
make it a resolution, Canton!
Surprise
Among gifts distributed to our
Juniors at Christmas were en-
gagcment rings to the two most
amiable girls of our club - Mis-
ses Elsie Maurer and Katherine

Our capable president, has chosen

all your plans materiaiize.
To Lorain
With Senator Sanders at the
Capitol, our five boys gave Lo-
rain whale of game and emerg-
ed rictourious with a 35-32
score. Geo. Miller bagged 26
points and he now has an average
of 10 points a game. Watch him !!
Lorain, words cannot express
our thanks to you for such hospi-
talitv, but we would like the
Schwclik, Schmidt and the Dan
Telinan family to know that we
are grateful for your kindness.
Also Bub Schenker and Walter
Kirschner have our we'll wishes.

Our gang was split up for New

good time. We must have eaten

tire early. Before o5 anyway.
To Salem
We will come over in a big

Cleveland West lew,
By Skip.

Cleveland, Ohio, January A.
TIE old year has passed into his
tory and we have embarked into
a more eventful and prosperous
new wear.
Tie girls and boys played their
last game of 1889 last Saturday.
They pulled through on the tail
end Of the score Is to 8. Those
Saem. lassies can certainly han
die that ball in a truely mascu-
line manner.
For minute the spectators
witnessed one of the most far
fetched boners yet pulled by the
boys team.
The fifth straight setback was
handed to West to the tune of
43 to 80. 1t certainly does not
take a very tall man to put the
ball through the hoop.
Let me give a word of advice
to the manager and one of en-
coutagement to the silver gait
ers. We have very little chance,
If ary, of landing near the top of
the league this season, so a few
of the younger lads who have
been very faithful in attending
practice and petting on the bench
during the games, would like
very much to break into every
game left to play. Why not let
these fellows get into the game,
for a quarter or so, to get used
to playing before a crowd, and
most of all to overcome the shy
ness which exists in them. I am
sure. if by doing this, you will
have far better material to build
from next season. Lesson follows
When a word of criticism is toss
ed at you don't let it get you
down to overcome the mistakes,
which anyone of you will make.
To New Castle
Our next game is out of town,
and with New Castle. All West
IAN say is: "We will be seeing
you on January 6. 194O."
Meeting, January 5th
The first business meeting of
the new year will be held tonight
and will start promptly at 8 p. m,
Installation of officers will
take place at this meeting.
. A party is to be held afterwards
for both old and new officers. All
mer1bers are urged to attend the
meeting and the party.
Your next reporter will be none
other than John Wolf. So long
my friends.

DEFENSE FOR ALASKA SURE SAYS GRUENING

Back from Washington, D. C., where he found World War Il and all it's involvements, the mat ter of chief concern among offic- ia s with whom he talked, Gov. Ernest Gruening declared in Jul neau recently that the one bright spot on the otherwise dark horl- zon was that Alaska was to have the defense for which he and Delegate Anthony J. Dimond have been working, says the Jul reau Empire.
 Anchorage is now assured its Army air base. For the proposed Navy base at Dutch Harbor, $2,- 5O9,O00 has been set aside to be- g.n work, the Governor said.
 And have every reason to be lieve that this is just the begin niag," he added.
 Elicit O1 lIlG IllONC "" N'A O l4o tional defense in Alaska will be far reaching, Gov. Gruening said. Work will start immediately on the Ketchikan airport. Military necessity will require the en- largement of Juneau plane facil- ties. Airfelds will be increased thI oughout the Territory and ex- ist1ng fields will be enlarged as Q art of the national defense pr2 gram.
 Gov. Gruening deplored the war as a cause of bringing to our attention the need for national defense.
 It is tragic that we have had to have this cruel lesson, but l am glad that there is no longer any doubt about Alaska being in cluded in our national defense program" he said.

crouching at the base of huge milkweed. his
little face oontorted with fright. Into Biilie's
arms he came with soft Groom of happiness,
clasping both paws tight about her neck
Then in series of "pu-r-r-up-s" he related
his terrifying experience.
HE great maple trees in the yard offered
the next adventure. His sharp claws easily

it he was sitting in crotch twelve feet from
the ground. 1t was wonderful up there in the
swaying branches He had new feeling of
exhilaration and achievement.
For an hour he stayed, until discomfort in
his tummy told him it was dinnertime All
right, he'd come down - but how? 1t was
easy enough to 60 up, head first, but that
didn't work on the down trip. Finally he gave
it up and sent out an SOS.
Billie came on the run and stretched up her
arms Lord Jitters jumped and landed on the
top of her head, clmging desperately to her
thick blond hair, and slid down to her shoul-

straight up.
He crept toward US, eyes blazing, and
suddenly flew at Cob like white demon. The
setter yelped and oavenly legged it for the
road. Lord Jitters followed to the gate and
stopped, glaring.
Then he paraded up and down the stone
wall to make sure that the dog did not ven
tme again upon his property.
Moreover, we got lecture upon what
would happen if he ever saw us touching that
red animal again.

and setter dog. For long time we debated
whether or not we dared introduce them into
our household. At last we decided we could
not continue to be ruled by cat and keep
our self respect. The setter and the kitten
arrived.
Lord Jitters was indignant at first, but
when he learned that the arrangement was
permanent he did what we might have known
he would do - brought them also under his
authority.
He remains still undsputed autouat of the

Out in the garden he went and there he re-

and the monkey was sent away.

was taken in motor car to inspect his estate,

him was an unknown

Great stems of grass

indignity on me, l shall
not get to my feet. My

watched the passing

life. for it opened up to him the World of Trees
To 60 on walk with US through the woods

heels, climbing over great glacial boulders, he
finds it most exciting adventure. When we
stop he settles down comfortably on log and

in the underbsush and ferns but he soon

Now, when we have disappeared, he climbs the

OrRANCELY enough, Lord Jitters rather likes
water. One day he was with us in the canoe
on the pond. We landed, but he remained
playing with bug. The canoe foated off ten
feet or more before Jitters discovered that he
was adrift and all alone Without the least
hesitation he jumped overheard swan to
