over the fact.

has originated very moved idea in re-
gard to the celebration of Halloween.
This lady has raised a family of boys
and knows well of the pranks boys.
and even the girls love to resort to on
this day. In speaking of Halloween
when the younger generation feel that
they have the privilege of pulling off
any stunt which comes to their mind,
this estimable lady makes the follow
ing suggestion: Let the authorities
of the schools, both public and paro-
chial. throw open their buildings on
Halloween to all the scholars and
provide entertainment suitable to the
occasion for their children. There
could be nuts. apples and games, to-
gether with short lectures by the
teachers, descriptive of the origin and
ancient celebration of the festival This
would serve to keep the youngsters
from the streets and present much of
the rowdyism that has been an annual
disgrace to Whiting in times gone by

ties. for while steps have been taken to
