CITY CELEBRATES
SANE HALLOWEEN
Many Parties and Social Gather
ings Provide Entertainment
For All.

Halloween, so called as being the
eve or vigil of All Hallows, or festi-
val of All Saints is quaint old Eng
lish custom associated in the popular
imagination with the prevalence Of
supernatural influences and is clearly
a relic of pagan times. Ghosts of
departed spirits, witches and elfs ap-
peared during the dark hours of the
night and the ghostly superstition
connected with the eve of the last day
of October became one of England
most interesting traditions. Coming
to America, Hallowe EN- came to be an
event many times celebrated by 1nrea-
sonable pranks and very often mex
eusable destruction of property.
There were social gatherings and
parties for all Morris to attend this
year and the old English traditions
were observed and Americas version
of All Saints day was forgotten.
The public school children observed

folks had the time of their lives bob

pumpkin pie and sweetmeats.
Edgar AlleL Poe could not have i'm

campus Saturday night. Students

dramatic performance so CHASTITY that
few dared to venture beyond the glare
of the campfire. Afterward there was
an abundance of leafs" in the girls
dormitory which was decorated in ty~
pical old English style.
The women of the Progressive

"Miss Topsy Turvy" Scores Hit

S~PSy ~ANy A~SASS 44@
"Miss Topsy Turvy" comedy of
three acts given under the auspices
of the Morris band last night at the
Orpheum theatre and to be repeated
tonight was a success in more than
financial way. 1t proved conclu-
sively that Morris has local dramatic
talent of superior ability and could
very nicely organize and maintain a
Dramatic Club. A large audience
was in attendance at the opening
performance and the actors were we'll
received on all occasions.
The cast of characters were:
Miss Topsy Turvy-Nora Vinje.
Frank Golden-HaroId Lund.
Miss Spriggs-Anice Dablow.
Deacon Jones-Walter Ferrell.
May charlottesville WaIz.
Lord Clarence Leroy, Ellington

Lady Clarendon Edith Roberts.

To the untiring efforts of Miss L.
Edith Roberts, of Madison, Wisconsin,
director of the play, much of the Gre
dit for the success of the play is due.
Miss Roberts also filled the diff
Guilty role of Mrs. Clarendon with
admirable ease of manner and express
sion.
The play will be shown again to-
night at the Orpheum theatre.

Citizen Asks Question.

An Ardmore citizen would like tC
have this question answered: "Why Is
the money pressure high when the
gas pressure IS low, and vice versa
or, in other words, when the gas
pressure is so low that gas is insult
ficient for domestic needs, why is the
gas bill higher than when gas is plen.
tiful?
We are probably not competent to
make a scientific reply. Money value
is somewhat of an elusive thing Many
"A fellow viii, in one nights carousal,
spend more than his taxes for year,
and consider that he escaped cheaply,
and never say a word about it, but
will raise a fuss over his taxes, which
go to keep the wheels of all ciyiliza-
ton oiled and running. A few cold
mornings and a few cold meals in
the home makes a fellow feel he is
not getting his moneys worth, and
the gas bill hurts.
If there is any scientific reason
why meter registers more when
there is lack of pressure, we do not
know it, and pass it up to the gas
company for reply.
