Box 618 Grand Bond, Ont. 519-238.2110 Highway 83 East 'e OTTAWA - The KidsCare program of Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada has some safety tips to help parents and other caregivers get ready for Hallowe'en. Or°. One of KidsCare's goals is to make adults who care for children aware of things they can do to reduce the number and seriousness of accidental injuries suffered by children. • Look for costumes, beards and wigs labelled "Flame -Resistant" - nylon or polyester costumes are best. • Avoid outfits with big, baggy sleeves or billowing skirts to lessen the risk of contact with candles. • Place pumpkins with candles well away from doors and walk- ways. • Choose brightly -coloured costumes that will be clearly visible to motorists. • Decorate costumes with reflective tape for even greater visibility. • Use make-up to create a mask rather than wearing a mask which might restrict breathing or vision. Radar, the KidsCare mascot, hopes that these safety tips will help both parents and children to have a safe and spooky Hallowe'en. Hallowe'en safety tips Hallowe'en party in Crediton CREDITON - Tomorrow night, Thursday, all the young ghosts an goblins in the Crediton area will have a place to enjoy Hallowe'en activities.

The party including three scary rooms, hot dogs, and soft drinks will run from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. After enjoying a jaunt through the various rooms, the best cos- tumed youngsters will receive priz- es. A year ago the same two groups sponsored a similar party and a large number of parents were so en- thused with the results that they asked that a similar event be staged again the year. UCW to meet Members of the United Church Women are reminded of the next regular meeting to be held on Thursday night, November 7 at 8 p.m. They are asked to bring a gift item for the Huron Christmas Bu- reau.
