THE HALLOWEEN FESTIVITIES
WE'RE CHECKED

The Halloween Goblins didn't.
get anybody in Rising Sun on last
Thursday night But it was due to-
the foresight of the Town Commits
sioners that they didn't, as the
boys had let it be known they in
tended to wipe out what they consid-
cred old scores, by piling things high
in certain places.
The Commissioners, however, had
placed the policing of the town in
the hands of State officer Kries, who
with two assistants, made finished
job of it.
A number of the "boys" who had
assembled in Center Square about
midnight, were invited to go home
by Officer Kries, and they took the
hint. But one arrest was made,
that of Clyde Brown, who was lock-
ed up for the night and the next day
fined for carrying a concealed
weapon and disorderly conduct, $40
and costs on each charge, total OF
$22.9O.
The Town Commissioners and the
State officers are to be congratulate
ed for the effective manner in which
they handled the Halloween situa-
ton i'll our town. We hear criticism
of our Commissioners by certain
citizens, who are loud in their pro-
testations about the spending of the
taxpayers money for police protec-
ton this year, and these same good
citizens yelled just as loudly last
year when the Commissioners had
to spend the taxpayers money in
cleaning up the mess in Center
Square, after the boys" had deco
rated it with conglomeration OF
trash, and articles of every conceiv-
able description.
The condoning of senseless and
unlawful Halloween depredations
may be popular with the boys" who
commit them, but it finds little fav-
or with the right-thinking, law
abiding citizens of community.
