{. The youngsters were busy Friday
night with various halloween FRANKS.
Among some of the stunts were the
following: wagons taken from pre-
misses and put in different places,
fence on the former Cowan property,
which has been there a number OF
wears torn down, the Ernest Sander
son barber pole pushed over, wagon
belonging on the Gollmar residence
near town was brought into the city
square and placed by the fountain
where it remained until taken to its
owner this morning by the authorities,
and tar was put on the sidewalk in
many parts of the city. One young
| lad went even SO far as TO take an
automobile from the place it stood
and drove it few blocks up the
street; however, the youth was dis
covered and made rapid retreat.
Some h-e-a-r-t-l-e-s-s individual
stole the pies prepared for the Junior
League Halloween social given at the
parlors of the first M. E. church on
Friday evening and there was much
! indignation over the way the tooth
some, circular constructed articles in
tended for the feast disappeared. The
gathering Of the happy young people
was held between and 8 o'clock,
| there being unusual numbers on -
program that go to make an evening
ghostly, spooky, and heart beating.
The discovery that the pies had been
lpurloined, however, added a bit of
bitterness to the evening. Not only
were the mothers sad because the
viands vanished, but the children
were sorrowful over the unexpected
turn OF affairs. There were some re
freshments in store, however. SO the
evening was not entirely barren of
something for "the inner man" The
culprits should be taught a deserved
/ lesson. Next year a guard will be
placed over the pies as soon as they
are out of the oven.
Friday evening a Halloween social
was given to the young people OF the
German M. e. church A short dedi-
catory program was carried out it
being the first gathering since the
basement of the church had been
lifted up for similar entertainments.
Inc spacious room was prettily dec
! GRATED. Corn stalks hid the corners
vegetables OF various kinds were plac-
ed In the bungalow windows. while
ears OF corn, cat-ollanterns and fes.
toons of Halloween paper hung
gracefully from the ceiling. Games
and contests were enjoyed by the
little folks, after which about 60 ner-
sons sat down to feast on real Halo
Ween refreshments as rolls. coffee
pumpkin pies, popcorn balls, etc, The
table decorations were containers of
1rult made from huge pumpkins while
the smaller ones served as jardaineres
containing bouquets Of parsley. The
mellow Lights gave the room an an
pearance OF fairyland and all en-
loyed the happy occasion.
