HALLOWEEN.

WHEN Octobcr's growing colder
And the days are getting colder.
When the leaves grow red and rustic.
When the weather makes us hustle,
Then We think Of Halloween,
When tho days are dark and dreary
And the evening fires are CHEEKY,
When the frost begins to bite us
And the northern wind to smite us.
Then We think of Halloween.
When the pumpkins get so mellow
That 1t sort o. makes a fellow
Wish Thanksgiving time were nearer.
Wish the weather colder. clearer,
Then look out for Halloween.
When the turkey starts to fatten
And Its feathers get like satin,
When the squirrels in the thicket
And when home has gone the cricket.
Comes the spell Of Halloween.
Then we gather round the fire
AS the flames leap high and higher.
AND We watch for ghosts and witches.
stories tell Of love and riches.
So We keep our Halloween.
