In could Ireland" long before
the day of St. Patrick, they had
two great divisions of
November the year, May and
Halloween. November. The first
represented the awak-
ening of nature, and the other the
coming of darkness and death.
November was called "the month
of mourning" 1t was in that
month that Baal the lord of death,
summoned before him the souls of
the dead to receive judgment for
the works done IN human life. On
the Vigil of Saman, or Hallow
eve, the dead had strange power
over the living and could work
them harm and take revenge for
mean things done them while liv-
ing. From that ancient supersti-
tion has sprung the custom which
prevails now of observing the last
night of October as Halloween.
For it is then that ghosts, spooks
and apparitions revel and walk
abroad. If you have occasion to !
walk abroad tonight don't be sur
prised if you see strange sights |
and hear strange sounds, and if
you don't want to see ghosts don't
look back. Washington Irving's
story of "Sleepy Hallow'' and the
''Headless Horsemen" are the
best Halloween stories extant.

political gathering. Dick and Horace

The delays attending the recent trans

branch of service has not kept pace with
other advances in military science. Men
