Hallowe’en is supposed to- be a festival for the .kids, and eqrly in the evening it is. Our house was a beehive of activity between the' hours of four and six on Monday even-, ing because it was time to put together the costumes which would -strike fear in the hearts .of all but the very brave. The .children had been planning for weeks but none of their ideas seemed to- jell until mother took time to turn dreams into reality — and like more1 busy mothers I know, it was left to the very last moment. The second the last dob of "paint had been skillfully applied and the final bit oif wizardry accomplished with the needle and thread', my Indian princess and her swashbuckling pirate brother left the warmth of home foy the bleakness of a Hallowe’en ,. night. Tire moon was high, spooks, were every­ where and grinning jack-o-ian- terps flickered ‘in the dim shad’- ows. The kids were in high spirits when they left fcr two hours pf treat-gathering and UNI’CEF- eollecting, Luckily, they came back safely each with a bag full of. candy and an orange and black box rattling with pennies and niqkles. They wont to sleep quickly,, exhausted 'from the excitnient and pleased With the world. I couldn’t help thinking that this is the way Plallpwe’en, the modem kind, is meant spent. Laughing kids funny masks waiting identified at every tyoirne, ing for a treat, asking donation for some child not quite so fortunate, then off for the fun cf doing it all over again at the next house. Tuesday morning, I woke to hear of the destruction that has become a pitiful and unavoid­ able part of Hallowe’en. Public property broken and torn down, private property mutilated and ■.burned, adults bothered,' child­ ren accosted, animals tortured — this is Hallowe’en to some folk — one gory night for vengeance, It is difficult to imagine what twisted thoughts' must gd through a brain that sees sport in removing lifesaving highway signs. It isn’t easy to see where the fun lies in slashing tires, breaking windows and shatter­ ing street lights. It is even more impossible to fathom the mind of an adult who would Stuff mothballs and chocolate laxatives and butts into a treat sack. What kind duces people ment in What kind of citizens sit with their heads buried lest they should see op hear something which might demand their in­ tervention? If we didn’t feel a twinge of shame on Tuesday morning •— shame for the environment we condone by our silence and in­ difference —■ we should have.
