Masquerade One
of Big Features
for" Halo We en-

A masquerade always is popular
with the children, and particularly
so on Halloween. The nice thing
about masquerades is that they
practically furnish their own enter
tainment. In addition. you will want
to plan for the time-honored games
OF apple bobbing, fortune telling, etc.
The house can be made Hallow-
eer-like with lights shaded in crepe
paper, cornStalks, witches and black
cats cut from Black paper. For lit
tie children, the effect should be
picturesque rather than actually
"scary." If there are ghosts and
witches, let them be friendly ones.
Favors at the table might be
noise makers of various kinds. There
are many of them to be seen in the
stores which in themselves will deco
rate the table Witches and ghosts
made from lollipops also are good.
Let a huge pumpkin jack-o-lan-
tern form the centerpiece, with a
hollowed-out pumpkin on each side
of it. When all the children are
seated at the table, sandwiches mi
raculously can be taken from one
of the pumpkins, while it is discov-
cred that the other one contains Or
ange juice. Plates and glasses are
filled. For dessert, there could be
little sponge cakes and orange sher-
bet
Suitable filings for the sandwiches
are chopped eggs, fruit pastes of
chopped dates, figs and raisins, cot
tage cheese, nut pastes, and a little
iellY.

Vegetable Soup
Is Good Without
Soup Bone Base

It sometimes is desirable to make
a vegetable soup which does not
contain the usual foundation soup
bone. On such occasions, the fol-
lowing recipes will be helpful
cup diced potatoes
4 cup diced celery
] cup diced carrots
IL cup diced onion
tablespoon butter or margarine
2 teaspoons salt
2 quarts water
Brown the vegetables gently in the
fat. Add salt and water. Bring to
boil. Cover tightly and cook at SIM
mering point. If desired, a few
tablespoons of rice or barley may be
added after the soup has reached
the boiling point. These will add
body to it.
This recipe may be varied In a
number of ways. If your family is
fond of tomatoes, substitute a can
of tomatoes for part of the LIQUID
specified. Leftover vegetables of
peas, string beans, and turnips also
NAV be added.

Decorations
Attractive

Halloween decorations are easily
achieved. So many things at this
season of the year lend themselves.
Besides the pumpkins, fruit. autumn
leaves and flowers. the stores are
Alled with suggestions for center
pieces, place cards. table coverings
and what have you.
If your occasion is rather digni-
fed. such as an afternoon party, or
dinner a flower centerpiece prob
ably would be the best. Chrysan-
themums, with a cut-out witch
mounted on a spiral wire. riding the
tops Of the flowers. would be appro-
pirate. With these. use either yell
low, pale green or black candles.
There may be chrysanthemum fash
Toned nut cups and place cards sur
mounted with tiny witches.
A pretty table for an evening
party may have as its centerpiece
one large size candle, orange in COL
or, and grouped around it four
smaller and shorter candles of
either paler orange or yellow. Place
all the candles on a bed of bright
colored autumn leaves. radiating
from the center in a ur-spoke pat
tern.
Then make tiny place cards os
follows: On a fiat orange cream
mint. fasten a yellow or white Life
Saver with a dab of frosting. Place
two together, one on top of the
other, then a third as a handle to
the candle holder. In the center,
set a tiny orange. yellow, or black
candle. This makes in attractive
effect. and the tiny name card can
be tied to the handle of each one.
Still another suggestion is to use
large doll dressed as a ghost for
your centerpiece. Clothes pins

place cards and souvenirs. Mark a
face on each clothes pin, and dress
them in white crepe paper.
On your table. lay strips of crepe
paper patterned with cobWebs and
bats, and let both appear in the

paper bats from the lights. which
have been covered in cobweb paper

Stanley High Believes This
Country Has Great Mission

Declaring that christianity not

cred lecture on what the World
is Thinking" before the members OF

gregational church chapel yesterday
afternoon.
Non-whites outnumber the whites
in this world approximately two to

presents is not to be met any longer
with force and subsection. he said.
Its proper treatment is through
friendly assistance and direction
along the paths which it should
pursue if the good of all is to be
attained. If this apparent force is
undirected, as is the case now. it
can take the form of reprisal
against the whites, such as is ex-
hibited in the many uprisings in the
Orient. Or as Mr.. High related 1t
can follow the course directed by
Christianity. America Is largely re-
sponsible for the new spirit found
among the non-whites and they are
moved by two important things
emanating from this country, demo-
crazy and Christianity.
Contact between whites and the
whites as exemplified through
the missions is one of the very few
instances where such meetings have
not harmed the non whites and have
if anything. brought them benefit, he
declared. This relationship between
the whites and non-whites. Mr.. High
said. offers vast possibilities. 1t pro-
vides the opening through which
America can lend a guiding hand
for the new spirit among the nom
whites. Toward this end, all can
play a common part, namely foster
