HALLOWEEN In
ITS TRUE SENSE
One Way in Which the FeSti-

Celebrated
HOW TO ENJOY A SILVER

Consideration OF the singular posslbiii-
ties or the night We call Hallowe en-, re-
quires an atmosphere far removed from
rows OF brick houses and noisy streets.
For the influence OF this night Is OF a
delicate nature and is offended by the
disturbing influences OF man.
A clear. cool night with the moon shin
ing brightly. covering the earth with a
patchwork OF silver light and awesome
shadows--and perhaps chill breeze whis-
pering through the pine trees around the
house-and YOU have an ideal setting.
For the spirit Of Halloween is unique
and suggests a spiritual communication
Of unknown forces Of nature rather than
the rollicking festival which usually char
acterizes its observance. Mummery. first
carried out as a symbol Of the spirits
who upon this night become visible. has
grown to rowdyism and misunderstanding,
and in place of the mysterious silence OF
the night, we contemplate blasts from tin
horns and boisterous shouts from the
"spirits Of the night" such as "Oh, mann
ma, fellers look at the girl
And save for a few people, Halluw-
e'en is now little more than children's
festival--a night when Willie Is permitted
to forget his usual bedtime

night. however. we would perhaps fnd
IN some of them the true Halloween

Where we would find a wood fire burn

II, tho members Of the family, with per-
haps a friend or two. whilst one OF them
whispers with bated breath some strange
story OF the night And the fireligh'
shines on pale features and wide-oper
eyes. As the minds of all are drawn
into contemplation OF supernatural things
at last when the clock In the hal
strikes 10, the party draws into small
er circle about the fire, and more thar
\ one smiles in half apology as he cast
an apprehensive glance into the shadow
behind him.
And when the circle breaks up an'
each member thereof with tiny shlver
running UP and down his back goe
creeping up the stairs to bed the evening
has been properly observed.
The enjoyment OF a shiver Is a fin
art and one which on this certain even
ing falls not far short Of realization.
