A Ha!lowe'en Party

Once upon a time there was lit
tie boy and girl who were twins.
Emily and Edgar were IS years
old. They felt that they were big
enough to have a party, SO in the
fall of the year they decided to have
a Halloween Party for their friends.
They asked their mother, and she
gave her consent. SO few days
before Halloween the children sent
out their invitations and of course
their friends were delighted TO
come. In the invitations it said to
come masked. The children were
delighted to find out that their Aunt
Anna was to decorate the house and
yard, and that they were to help
her.
The children lived in big old
fashioned brick house, set in the
midst of a nice woods. This was
very spooky at night.
Their Aunt Anna spent many
hours in fixing the jack o'lanterns
on the posts in the yard. She put
ghosts in the halls and corn stalks
in all the rooms and jack o'lanterns
in all the hooks and corners.
Aunt Anna is to fix things for
the games and to help serve" said
Emily as she and Edgar were out
in the swing" Isn't it lovely of
her to do all Of this for u.s." asked
Edgar. Il can't wait for the time
to come for us to get dressed cX-
claimed Emily, as she gave Edgar
an extra hard push in the swing.
Time went very slow until the
time to dress and then it went too
fast.
When Emily's father came home
hired man to 90 to the car to meet
the children in the machine. Some
of the children'6 parents were
going to bring them in machines.
Soon the children were all there.
A large number was pinned on
each child and pencil and paper
given them on which they were to
write the names Of the children
and the number that was pinned
on each. After they were all I'M
masked they were each given
present, which they had to roll
across the floor with their nose.
They then bobbed for apples.
Emilys Aunt Anna was dressed
as a witch, and she gave each of
them a little piece of paper cut into
a certain shape, and each person
had to find the piece that matched
his own paper. They were taken
to the witches den, which was in
the attic and there they had their
fortunes told. Tho witch led them
all around the yard and finally led
them to the barn. They were
taken up and down ladders and all
the hay, over stalls and boxes, until
they reached the place where the
were. After the re
Ireshmcnts were served, tn children
were taken out back Of the barn,
let slide down the hay stack.
1t was then time for them to take
a hay ride out in the country. The
children went miles and miles, and
at last they We're all taken home.

the elderly Crochety tailor. Louis

Louis was suspicious of him because
he was an infidel, and determined to
show him a sign from Heaven so as
to convert him. He stole from the

that the tailor's death was due to

him. but the cure took his part and
urged the people to pray that he
might be brought into the fold.
