Halloween Parties

The girl who has a room big enough for dancing should give Halloween cotillion. At no other holiday season has she as great opportunity for originality and amusing favors at small cost
 Should there be no room in the house a clean barn floor, well waxed, is es- pecially appropriate for such a dance. The unusualness of the ball room will make it the more enjoyable. A place for the musicians can be fixed in the loft OF a corner may be turned into an au- tumn bower, with stacks of grain and a screen of autumn leaves and Virginia creeper fastened to wire screening or strings.
 The illumination should be entirely from the wierd lanterns that come in the shape of bats. snakes pumpkins, witches, masks cats and owls. These lanterns are made like the well known Chinese ones, and can be found at any shop where Hal loween novelties are sold.
 An ingenious girl can make her own lights from lightly constructed frame- work covered with gay papers. Mixed with them could be grotesque Jack o'-lanterns cut from all sizes of pump- kins. Be careful in making a paper lantern that the opening is wide enough at the top so that the paper does not come near the flame. A burnt home is a sorry ending to a frolic
 For decorations use grains, autumn leaves, punches of yellow chysanthe- mums, and wierd shapes of Halloween symbols cut from black cardboard nnd suspended by wires so they float thickly in the air above the head.

Origin of Halloween

Halloween and it's origin is shrouded in the mists of antiquity
 Tradition holds that long before the wise men of the east proclaimed the birth of Christ, a great festival was held on October 31 by Druid priests.
 As nation by nation became Christian ized the day was called All Hallow' be- cause it preceded All Saints Day.
 Halloween is the occasion of certain popular superstitions in observancies in many Christian countries, fairies, witch es and imps of all kinds being supposed to then be especially active. In Scot land as related by Burns Halloween" in the evening is frequently celebrated by meetings of young people of both sexes, when various mystical or playful ceren1 1onies are performed with the view of revealing future husbands or wives.
 In modern times this day has come to be regarded by old and young alike as the day par excellence on which to entertain.
 There are a great many ways to amuse guests on this witching night, so many in fact, that a hostess must choose from the time worn customs those best suited to the enjoyment of her particular com pany and friends
 Two hundred years ago it was custom ary to build great bonfires on the hills to proclaim that majestic and sacred rites season of great rejoicing. In honor Of this custom huge log fire is a desirable addition to a Halloween party
 Even in the city house or apartment. where only gas log is possible, be sure to light it, and use candles only for Jack-o'- Lanterns must glow from every available corner.

What Is Halloween?

In a general way we all know about Halloween said a clever raconteur to a group of friends, but in a particula, way we don't. That is, if I were to ask you"
 But don't!' they shouted in chorus.
 'Very well. Let me say that I was riding on a Twentieth street car yes terday and a workingman, who seemed to know me, turned to me and asked
 Well, MT. Blank, what about the Halloween business?'
 ' oh, it's all right, I answered
 " But what is it?'

 " Yes, but what is Halloween?'
 'I asked him if he had read Roose- velt's last speech said the speaker, but I couldn't shake him that way. He came back with his question, and l knew I couldn't answer it to. his sat isfatcion. I was about to leave the car to get out of the ,muss when an old woman spoke up and said to the man:
 "'Now. don't be asking questions to show how smart you are. There's no one in this car that don't know that Halloween is the night that the Chil- dren of Israel crossed the Red Sea and never so much as wet a toenail'
 q was saved" said the speaker, "anl to show my gratitude I managed to drop dollar bill into the old womans market basket as I passed her"

 Did she recover the article?" asked the man rather contemptiously.
 The gipsy told her she was going to marry a-widower--a brunette" Peggy flashed back triumphantly. and sure enough she did. that Fall. He was from Gergia, and just what the fortune teller said he'd be--dark"
 After arguing that the girl in ques- tion probably knew all the time she was going to marry that identical gem tleman, the Mere Man said:
 T was amazed to see flocks of women rushing into the tents out at the Fair recently, having their fortune told. There were not a half dozen women who had their fortunes read by Chi quita,' or Anita or whoever it was the future. who doesn't now believe that there is some woman who is fear fully jealous of her There isn't one of them who left those tents at the Fair Grounds, who doesn't believe that some secret admirer will eventually usurp the faithful, adorer that she has had on the string for years. There isn't a woman alive who will do the 57 varieties of Halloween stunts next Tuesday evening who doesn't believe every last one of them. Of course, it's

Suggestions for Halloween
 Costumes

Every girl who wants a costume for Halloween racks her brain for some thing new and striking, yet the very variety of fancy dress only increases the difficulty of choosing.
 For one with unlimited spare cash the costumers offer a varied and most tempting display, having in their col lectons, almost every known costume, and what they have not they are will ing to make at their patrons sugges tion.
 But to the girl with a small allow ance Halloween presents a problem. After all, it does seem foolish to spend a lot of good money on an outfit that is to be worn but once. H N4a.
 Many of the old standbys are very becoming the peasants of Normandy. Brittany, Holland or. the rustic maid ems of stageland being favorites. Any of these require a colored skirt, a vel vet laced bodice over a white lawn guimpe and a gayly colored apron. The difference in these lies in the cap worn. Gretchen wears a snug, tight fitting cap like a baby's, while the others have high white winged coifs or .frilly mop caps. A long braid worn on each side of the face gives a very demure air to the fair wearer. Sabots, too, frequently accompany this costume, but though they give color, 1t is impossible 10 dance in them, and they might easily be left out.
