A Halloween Social.

One of the most delightful events OF
the season was the Halloween party |
given the young people Of Plain Deal
ing at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. J. E.
Walker yesterday evening. AS the
guests arrived they were greeted by the
grinning countenances of many jolly
jack-o'- Lanterns, and in the spooky
shadows of the porch each arrival was
met by a tall, solemn ghost, who pre-
sented pledge and conducted the
guest within, where were many hidden
secrets. The pretty home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Walker was appropriately dec
Grated in fit symbols of Halloween,
such as black cats, strings of popcorn,
and apples.
After all had arrived the real fun be-
gan. The witch invited each couple OF
the young people to bite an apple sus-
pended from a string. This, of course,
caused much merriment, as the young
man and young lady sometimes missed (?)
the apple. Then quite an interesting
contest was engaged in, which kept
them all guessing for some time.
Dainty refreshments were served in
the DINING room and this furnished
another very entertaining feature of the
evening. The table, in accordance with
everything else, was quite suggestive Of
Halloween. In the center was an i'm
, mense jack-o'-lantern, that furnished
, light and laughter for the occasion, ant
/ suspended from this we're strings O
) popcorn and berries reaching to eacl
plate, where was found a card telling il
, mystic words where the fortune OF eacl
< guest was hidden. Then came tn
: merry search for fortunes, which, whel
r found. caused amusement for the rest o
the evening.
The guests were as follows:
Misses Beula Keeth, Evelyn Carstar
phen, Pearl Collins, Margaret COLDER
i, Marguerite Caldwell, Linnie Gladne1
Gerta Mae Hays, Inez Bright, Jonni

If your cotton is all out, why not burn

to seek temporary shelter in the pith o.
the stalks, you'll get those too, wher
you burn the stalks. It's good time tt
try it.

For the second time within span {
It few short months Mr.. J. M. Sentel
It whose residence is just across the riv'

fire on his premises. Some months az
d he lost by fire large crib full of CO..

d modious and one of the best in til
community, was burned. The proper

Bossler Takes Second Prize.

Again this year, as during 1909, the
Bossier exhibit at the State Fair was
awarded only the second prize. The
writer of this was the first resident OF
the parish to refer to the Parish Fair as
our ssBlue Ribbon Fair" We gave it
that name and we would be pleased to
know that our friends insist in sticking
to it. Bossier did not secure the blue
ribbon this year, but it did last year,
and it has thus far secured four out OF
possible six. Not bad record, sir,
and certainly one that reflects credit
upon the parish at large-and indicates
that we have fertile soil, well adapted
to this sections many crops, that is
titled by an intelligent people filled with
pride. They to-day are proud of Bos-
sier as their homeland so are we.
Whenever one might go throughout the
parish there would be discovered a
unanimity of opinion as regards this
sentiment. Well, Claiborne, you beat
us to it this season, but there is another
yet to come. If you win over Bossier
next year, as you have done once before
, in the past, we venture that you will
have to get wiggle on. Boosters
crops met with many reverses during
the past season in the shape of local
storms, drouth, etc., but we hope such
is not in store for us next year. And
if not why, sir, you'll see us come
down the line with our ears backed.
