Halloween An Ancient Festival

Halloween is very ancient festival whose origin
probably antedaes recorded history, but appears to
have been outgrowth of the customs of lighting
the sacred fires prescribed occasions. In olden
days essential feature of the celebration the
lighting of a bonfire at nightfall by each family
Running through the history of Halloween was
the idea of spirits, mostly evil ones, and this, no
doubt, gave rise to the modern custom of playing
pranks and destroying property. Halloween is an
occasion of delight for the youngster, but has been
of apprehension for those who are likely to be
the victims of ghostly FRANKS
For that reason, we like the plan fostered a
year ago by Mayor wager, under which the boys
and girls of the community received wholesome en-
tertainment and refreshments in return for promise
that they dispense with the destructive and prankis
deeds.
This year the Halloween community party Is
under the sponsorship of the American Legion and
the Welfare Council, who with the cooperation of
all civic and other groups, will provide wholesome
fun and refreshments for the youngsters of Sank
Centre and vicinity
A similar party last year brought excellent re-
suits and Halloween, instead of night of ghostly
destructive pranks became event of happiness
and fun for the youngsters, and a night of peace
and quiet for those who years committed pranks
and worried the older folk the same night. Hail
to the modern Halloween.

Neutrality State of Mind and Action

Mnnesotas Senator Lundeen during the neutral
ity debate in the Senate suggested that Uncle Sam
seize the British West Indies in payment of the
debt which has been owed to since the last great
conflict. He continued there wouldn't be a shot
fired" because they too busy in Europe.
That statement smacks too much of Hiterism
and Stanism and it is the way of the dictator the
way to war. Better than send navy armed
forces on an errand of invasion seizure, which
is not the American way, legitimate deal could be
made for any naval or air bases we may need.
Americans generally do not favor seizure by force
of any other way, and they resent any sug-
gestion along that line. Americans want to stay
out of this and they do not want any action
through which they may become embroiled either
side. Neutrality is state of mind and action which
does not include seizure of property no matter to
whom it may belong.

Proposal to Repeal Dance Ordinance

At a meeting of the Planning Board Monday
evening, proposal presented asking the board
to recommend the repeal of the ordinance which
forbids dancing in restaurants in the city. The
proposal read and the board members voted I'M
anmously in its favor.
Favorable action by the Council would make it
legal under this proposal to dance in restaurants,
program to furnish clean entertainment within the
city for the young people
This ordinance passed many years ago, has been
outmoded and instead of being vehicle for good,
deters an entertainment program within the city.
The writer sincerely believes that the repeal of the
ordinance in question would be action for the
benefit and welfare of the city in general 1t would
be a move in the right direction believe for
dances in proper environment, among the finest
entertainment available.

BLACK NARCISSUS
BY RumOr Golden

The mountain scars above the
lesser hills, vital, malignant, cold,
except the sun on the snow sug-
gests the spring fertility of massed
azaleas. Did the mountain smile
when the coifed Sisters took over
the rambling summer palace from
which no housekeeping could re-
move the memories of the women
for whom it was built? Was 1t the
mountain who sent the young
prince to the mission school in his
rainbow silks to put strange ideas
into the Sisters heads and make
them think that anything could
happen? Was it the mountain OF
the Princes Black Narcissus scent
that made Sister Clodagh daydream
of the man because of whom she
had become an Anglican nun?
What force made her link the man
in her past, with Dean, the dis
solute Resident Agent? Is it the
mountain that makes this story
hard to describe and harder to
forget?

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Owls of one kind or another are
found in almost every part of the
earth. They live in the frigid zones.
also on islands and other bodies of
land in the torrid zone.
For the most part, these birds
rest IN the daytime and go about
at night They seem to be "dazzled"
If suddenly brought into bright sun
light, but they have high seeing
power at night. This is because
their eyes have large pupils which
let in what little light there may be
at night. When there is no moon
and only a little starlight an owl
can see clearly.
The power of seeing at night is
OF great value to owls in seeking
their food. They live chiefly on
mice, bats, birds. insects, moles,
shrews and the like. Some of the
larger kinds eat rats as we'll as mice
BY keeping track of the feathers,
bones and fur left around nests of
certain owls, scientists have learned
a great deal about the victims of
owls. In and near a nest of tawny
owls were the remains of 6 rats, 10
birds, AZ mice and 48 moles. A barn
owls nest showed the remains of 3
rats, Is bats, % birds, 237 mice
and many shreWs.
Owls have nests of many kinds.

For some years past we have ad-
vocated the lead-directing double to
be used specifically against opposing
slam contracts. There are several
ramifications of this lead-directing
double, one of them being that the
double (always by the player not on
lea6 calls for the lead of the first
suit bid by dummy.
If East had been aware of this.
today's slam would never have been
made. A double by him would have
definitely commanded his partner
to open club-the first suit bid by
dummy. 1t is true that the declarer
might not have held as many as two
clubs, and in that event the double
might have cost some extra points.
But without the double. West didn't

Dodd Indicted
For In;juring
Negro Child

Hanover Court House, Va, Jan. 16.
-(AP)-Dr. William E. Dodd, for
mer United States ambassador 70
Germany, was indicted by a Hanover
county grand jury today on charge
of hit-and-run driving and causing
injury to Glois Grimes, a four-year-
old Negro child His trial was set for
March 2.
Visibly nervous, the 69-year-old DR..
Dodd entered a plea of innocence
when the indictment was read at his
formal arraignment. He attempted to
explain his plea, but at the repeated
insistence of his attorney, Leon Bazile
DR.. Dodd took his seat after the plea.
Brazile sought unsuccessfully to
have the trial delayed until the next
term of court in order that the vic
tim could be in court However, Com
wealth Attorney Edward Eimpkins,
Jr., objected strenuously, and the
court set the trial for Thursday,
March 2.
Brazile pleaded that Dr. Dodd was
in a very poor physical condition, and
had been suffered from a severe at
tack of laryngitis, and was in no con-
dition to stand trial in the near flu
ture. But the commonwealth attorney
argued that Dodd had appeared in
court three times within six weeks in
connection with the case, and there
was no medical testimony brought for
ward to show that he was unable to
stand trial.
