Right in the midst OF the social
planning during the autumnal season.
along comes the day Of All Halloween,
always looked forward to by young
and old and the stole and the Joker as
the time for once in the rear OF giving
way 10 the lighter. merrier things of
lfe-all in the melancholy days of
autumn. The society girl and the so
ciety boy are becoming deeply inter
ested in agriculture-or. rather the
harvesting of the pumpkin and the
fodder in the shock. for nothing can
take their places in the decorative
scheme employed in the home. despite
the cleverly devised limitations.
Witches refuse TO play their hideous
parts unless they can appear amidst
surroundings congenial. the fire burns
dimly under the caldron and the guests
at the Halloween party do not catch
the inspiration that goes with such
an enjoyable event.
Already plans are on for the gather
ing in OF the autumn branches. the
vari-colored leaves. tinted by the deli
cate touch OF Natures w~ell-trained
artist-Jack Frost-lending exquisite
beauty to the home interior on the eve
Of a dreary winter.

TRUSTEES TO lunch
and GET TOGETHER
New Board OF Control of Chamber OF
Commerce Contribute for Reg.
ular Dinner Affairs.

At the last meeting of the board OF
trustees of the Chamber of Commerce
a plan was outlined for stimulating
interest and bringing the members of
the board together which will I'M
doubtedly be beneficial to the organ
cation as a whole Each member of
the bsard of trustees will contribute
TIE sum of $40 per year which will be
used as a special fund for "Get-to-
gether luncheops" which will be held
every Saturday night. This fund Will
be entirely separate from the regular
funds of the Chamber of Commerce
and will be contributed by tie trus-
tees each year for this purpose.
1t is thought that these little lunch
cons will be the means of drawing the
trustees closer together and matters
of interest to the Chamber OF Com
merce and plans for committee work
will be the subj cts of discussion. The
entertainment committee of TIE trus-
tees will have chsrge of these affairs
and will make all arrangements fof
each luncheon.
