What a time they had of it! Most carried shopping bags, some had baskets and at least one had a tin pail. House wives were kept busy. One counted 150 callers and then gave up as they came in larger groups. One housewife sympathized with a little lad who had little in his bag, but he replied "Oh I had it filled twice before. It's in our car". On calling the Arena and the three local schools next morn- ing all reported "no damage". Perhaps it was due to the in- creased price of soap but most house wives were happy to have no windows to clean next day in cold wintry weather. Some children carried lights, many wore something white but a number of children wore black costumes, so there was only a white shopping bag to warn mo- torists that devils, witches, black cats etc. were at large in the village. However no accidents were reported. III iiiii 1100,..M111111111011ilitii1,11,8111iiiinimium.wimiu. ,,,,,, ,,,,, 1.11.11.11.11 /1111111H11.1.11.11.111.,
