Let the youngsters have their fun, let them visit and demand their ""'trick or treat" and let us be generous with our donations to their UNICEF boxes, but, let ti's hope that our more exuberant Punsters do not carry their antics too far, and wake up to find their fun has become vandalism with serious consequences to persons and property. Mny we have it "spooky", "witching" Hallowe'en but not a "ghastly". "gloomy" one. 114.••••••11I. 0110010.14•11,1k BRUSSELS WOMAN IS INJURED IN ACCIDENT Mrs. Donald McTaggart of Brus- sels is in Victoria Hospitals London, with severe injuries received in a car-truck collision.
