= Gould the poet have taken one
peep into the Gym" Saturday
night, while the hlarty was at top
notch, his poetic imagination would
have easily found material for
dozen Halloween poems, besides
enough witches to put Tam O
Shanter in the shade. The annual
Halloween party was in full swing.
The fun started when the fellows
called at the hall and by means Of
clever system of lottery were
assigned partner whom they
escorted to the scene of action.
Once arrived the whole masked
assembly spent an hour or more
vainly trying to identify each
other.
In one corner, within a gaudy
wigwam, dark mysterious gypsy,
with snappy black eyes, discoursed
on the future. In due season the
rchestra, composed of all national
tiles from a German to 10th
century coed, turned up and, when
all had been supplied with candles,
the grand march began. Such a
conglomorationl Jews and Gen
tile, Dudes and Negroes, Indians,
Cinnamon, Germans, Irishmen,
every nationality under the sun
followed by witches, clowns
tramps, nurses, doctors, in fact a
representation of every known
vocation, coined hands and circled
to the right" All the costumes
were decidedly original and the
effect was ludicrous in extreme.
The stunt contest was somewhat
impromptu(on the boys part, al
leasD but served as a fun maker.
Refreshments were of a true
Halloween flavor and tended tC
jolly things up somewhat. Apple.
could be had for the ducking anC
pop corn, Temperance beer" anC
red hot doughnuts for the asking
The doughnutS, although made OF
the spot by clown and blacl
hooded witch, certainly took thu
. prize. All in all the party was
huge success.
