OCTOBER
When the green leaves are turning,
Little folks are always learning,
About the black cats and the witches,
Who are known to carry switches;
They are always snooping round
Over village street and town.
Witches, and black cats, and Ian
terms bright
Are all very prominate, on Hal
lowe'en night.
Clowns and ghosts are always seen,
And for pumpkin pies we're regular
fiends,
Come! duck for an apple, they're a
penny apiece,
Oh. my, my, my, will the noise never
cease.

Grade s, Dagsboro School.
HALLOWEEN
1 made the fiercest goblin
Out of a pumpkin round and yell

He almost made me shiver,
Ja Was euch q friQhtfIll fellow,
