No holiday is more redolent of mirth and fun than Halloween with all of it's quaint superstitions and mysteries, with goblins and witches, gnomes and sprites abroad in the land and "grown-u ups" enter into the spirit of the season with as much enthusiasm and vim as the chil- dren themselves.

 Society night has been transferred frcm the usual Thursday festivity to this evening, when the spirit of the sea- son will hold forth in all it's beauty and gaiety, for
 "There1l be a grand parade tonight,
 It's good old Halloween; Spooks and ghosts from left to right,
 With witches in between"
 Besides the delicious menu which will be served for the Halloween dinner de luxe. the Tutwiler has arranged in addi- ton to Wiegands excellent orchestra, Miss Ethelyn Hayes, soprano, and Billy Carroll, the well-known boy soprano, both of whom will render several attrAc- tive selections.

A rich old man with two glass eyes! You may be thin, but don't mind that, The witches say you'll soon be fat. Roses are red and violets are blue, A lot of money is coming to you Tomorrow. if it doesn't rain, You'll go up in an aeroplane! All your tears prepare to she'd A big fat man you're doomed to wed This I'll say and nothing more: You'll meet your fate outside the door. Another Fortunes in Rhymes" fea- ture for a Halloween party has to do with souvenirs which are given; take some yellow paper-just the color of the pumpkin used in decorations and write the coup1ets, ford the pieces of paper up in as small packages as can be made and tie these up in the sou venirs that you give to the guests. Here are some couplets which are attractive:
 Love, wealth and honor, all these three Through a brilliant marriage yours
 will be.
 Across the ocean you must go If your life's great fortune you would
 know.
 Your fortune from little things well
 done
 Will be greater than that by warriors
 won
 Your fortune won't come from foreign
 land,
 But lies close about you near at hand The way you will make your name so
 great Is by taking part in affairs of state.
 When you hear the small boys in Ark. is a visitor at the home of Mrs. c. c. Walker, Ensley Highlands.
 
 Miss Alice Waters is the guest of pr. and Mrs Palmer at their home in Mon tevallo for a few days.

HALLOWEEN

Night of eeriest wonders seen Is the eve of Halloween
 Then things befall too dear to doubt, For all the Fairy World is out And, in the dusk or moonlight clear, Miracles once more appear. Kobold elfin, pixy, sprite, Flock to celebrate this night. Franks they play with nuts and yarn And, from the garden, field, and barn, Masked they come, keen tricks to try, With fortune telling riotry
 Now youths and maidens by the fire Watch the flames rise and expire; Chestnuts put upon the coals To see what augury controls Their love-or, where the apples float In a tub, the omens note.
 We, too, who may not wander more On Youths iridescent shore, Still beside the fire place sit Amidst Loves coquetry and wit, And dream of our lost, joyous teens, Over uncounted Halloween.
 Joel Benton.
 As long as there are pumpkins, hob goblins, witches, and black cats, no matter what sort of party you are go- ing to give during the Halloween sea- son, there will always be lot of fun, for the sepurchtaI lights. mysterious green-eyed feIines, and other symbols of the witches night will throw a glamor and a thrill about the occasion that will make it interesting.
 Magic and mystery these are the real key note of "Hallowe'en' with jack o'lanterns, cornstalks, autumn leaves, grinning pumpkins jet black cats, and hooting owls, ga1ore-and whether you be groWn-up and old and grouchy or young and happy and joy ous you'll enjoy the capricious spirit of Hallowe' 'en-because like Christmas this festive season comes but once a year, and you are a mighty, mighty hard old customer if you can't enter into the spirit of the game at least one day and night out of the three hundred and sixty-five,
 Here's a novel feature for Hal loWe'en party; after the Old Witch at the door has welcomed the guests and everybody has gathered together round a big open fire, Fortunes in Rhyme" which are always lots more fun than mere prose things-may be read, the Jingle" of the verses and the lit and swing of the rhymes making really quite an. attractive and certainly diff ferent effect.
 For instance, here are some cunning HttIe JlngleS that 1 p1cked up the other day and which are awfully clever:
 You are doomed to be suffraget A year in jail you'll probably get! Pack your trunk and be ready to go Your honeymoon starts in a week or SO Buy shovel and dig around, There's buried treasure to be found! Honki Honk. a thrilling ride you'll
 take
 Across the town and in the lake! Your fate is coming-don't despair; She's tall and thin with bright red
 hair.
 The witches say you'll draw prize

PREPARE FOR AsPARAeUc BED

| PREPARE FOR ASPARAGU" BED
Permanent, lasting and profitable for
you Will be bed of asparagus, says
1.-THE truck crops specialist of the agri
cultural extension department of Iowa
State college. .... G.....
Asparagus will grow on almost any
soil but will, of course, respond to
care and cultural treatment in the pro
portion in which it is given. Once
established. an asparagus bed will last
for long period of years, yielding a
crop from about May list to July LIST,
ANNUALLY.
For small patch, it would perhaps
be better to purchase the plants, al
though it can easily be grown from
seed.
1t should be planted as early as pos.
|sible and from four to seven inches
deep. Two years are required before
a crop can be harvested, but from then
on the crops will be regular. 1t will
not kill out, for If stalk or shoot IS
killed by frost, in a couple of days an
other will be UP, having come from
the buds under the ground.
There are many good varieties OF
asparagus, but for average Iowa con-
ditioIs, Palmetto has been the favor
tie after years of use. ~
Asparagus can grow on wet, sour
ground, for the plant is native of salt
marshes. Some people claim that salt
is necessary, but the truck crops ex-
pert says that the only effect salt will
have on an asparagus bed is that 1t
will help in some measure to keep
down the weeds. 'o
