Evening Chat

Horrid leering faces! Gruesome
masks! Fantastic costumes! Wierd
noises! Mysterious ceremonies! Such
is Halloween night.
Back in the misty days when there
were more witches and spirits and
things than there were humans, the
few people living then were SO scared
of the occult powers that they petit
toned the gods to put some restraint
on the antics of the supernatural pop
ulation.
The gods had had 1t In their heads
for some time to make some sort Of
an ordinance to apply to the witches
and gobbledehunks, and decided that
since folks were asking for it, they
would act. So ut u regular meeting
Of the Olympian Board Of Affairs the
following ordinance was enacted:
"Slnce It has become evident that
the witches, elves, gobbledehunks,
sueelycumsQuiks. COLLINS and others
engaged in plying supernatural occu-
pations, have assumed an Overbear-
ing attitude toward humans which we
frown upon with extreme disfavor. be
1t enacted: First, That all witches,
elves, etc., mentioned above, be kept
hid from worldly eyes for all the days
In each year excepting one, that one
to be the last day of each Octomberer
(which Is now called October), but
that on the last day OF that month
they may reveal themselves and walk
about on the earth and secure of tho
harvest sufficient to their needs for
the year. And. Second, That all su-
pernatural powers and charms which
they may possess whether collectively
or individually. be OF no value to
them except on the day and date
Imperial ordinance"
OF course this royal mandate
against them greatly incensed the
little people. and It has been their
custom since that date, a very early
one, to wreak all manner Of ven
geance on humans on the one night
of the year when they may 60 about
and exercise their charms.
There Is but one way in which a
human can protect himself on the
fateful night of October 81. By dress
ing In fantastic and outlandish cos
ttume. even such q one as the COLLINS,
letc.. themselves wear. can he escape
their maiign influence. Presumably
when the spirits see persons dressed
as they themselves dress, they assume
them to be one of their brethren.
Always In the crowds on Hallow-
cen night. where everyone is disguis-
ed. there are a few choice spirits
scattered, having a good time on
, their one night Of liberty.
Weber's flower store, always to the
front In the way Of preparedness for
the various festivities Of the year. has
n most attractive Halloween window
exhibit. The window has a wierd ap-
pearance at distance with It's deeply
shaded lights and grotesque features,
symbolical Of the season. and 1t has
attracted the attention Of every pas
Berby since the final touches were put
on 1t last evening.
A realistic woodland scene and
witches cave Is shown with ,hobgob-
Inns and jack-o'lanterns intermingled
everywhere. Autumn branches and
other rustic decorations form pretty
background for the surroundings.
Chrysanthemums, daisies and other
flowers are used to good advantage in
the window display. and altogether 1t
