Dear Editor: Many years ago, I was living in St. Petersburg, Florida with my young family, one of whom was diagnosed with ADD. In an issue of People magazine, I was surprised to read of a murder by one child of another in a town I had never heard of. The photograph of the maroon house […]
DID YOU KNOW … Canton will face Stoughton in the classic Thanksgiving Day matchup tomorrow at 10 a.m. at Stoughton High School. The Canton-Stoughton rivalry is 86 years of football action since the two teams started playing each other in 1926, and the rivalry now stands in Stoughton’s favor with 43 wins, 39 losses and […]
Last night I woke up sniffling. Then I swallowed and felt my throat talk back to me. A cold — just what I needed right before Thanksgiving. There’s so much to do, so much to enjoy, so of course it’s the perfect time to cough and blow your nose continuously. I lay there trying to […]

DID YOU KNOW … Now that the presidential and senatorial elections are finally over, it is time to say something about Canton’s so-called “gentlemen’s agreement,” which was not adhered to this year. For many years, it was generally agreed that politicians running for office in Canton would not erect a multitude of unsightly political signs. […]
DID YOU KNOW … The new Edward M. Sullivan Water Treatment Facility off Neponset Street cost $11 million, which will come out of the town water department’s long-term capital water and sewer enterprise account. The new facility, according to Canton Water Department Supervisor Dennis Morton, is a plant filled with state-of-the-art machinery. Morton said that […]
If I had to make a list of things that I hate doing, interviewing for a job would be right up there. Isn’t it everyone’s dream to enter a room where they are at the mercy of someone who can make them feel instantly flustered and utterly stupid? I once read somewhere that an interviewer […]
