Before they start collecting, a great deal of activity takes place behind the scenes. Boxes have to be distributed and the young collectors have to be told the reasons why they are collecting and the good their money will do. Many voiunteers and organizations assist in the work of preparing the children for their important night. Afterwards comes the task of counting and banking the. money. All this sounds Most worthy and commendable, .but quite frankly, don't the kids find this, serious stuff a bit of a drag? Wouldn't they be happier if we just left them to collect sacks of 'candy? Probably the best answer is to let the children speak for themselves. Here are excerpts from just a few cif the many letters that UNICEF received from them after last year's. Hallowe'en catnpigm "On Hallowe'en night, I thought about you more than candy." "Fox the ones who are sick and the ones that have no clothes I hope you get some." "Soon as you get the money I hope you will be happy for the rest of your life." "On Hallowe'en we were given UNICEF boxes to collect money. We counted it and rolled it. We took it to the bank. They counted it and said we were right. We hope you have fun with your money." "I was a ghost." If you need further proof that children have MORE fun with modern style Hallowe'en — that they have learnt the joy that comes from sharing with others — take a look at the face behind the collecting box on October 31. Maybe the rest of us could learn something from them, too. WILDFIRES_ START SO EASILY...
