Blanche Deeves, in charge of the meeting opened the meeting by welcoming everyone and reading a poem "harvest time again". Mrs. Fred Middleton read the scripture and a hymn was sung to Mrs. Halloween safety is important Hn:}Foweexi-safety begins with a "be seen costume, says the Ontario Association of Optometrists.' Darkness makes youngsters invisible to motorists but there is a way to add an edge to safety to purchased or made -at-home costumes, Dr. Gerald Ingle, President of the organization, says. That edge 'i5 retro -reflective material. "I didn't see him in time" is the most com- mon explanation given by drivers hitting pedestrians, particularly at night when a driver's view iks limited to the length •of the headlight beam. Children in dark elothing are the most susceptible to such ac- . cidents but even white biothing is only safely visible at speeds of up to 50 mph. • "On the other hand,” ;Dr. Ingle, said, 'Optometric studies have found that retro - reflective material is Safely visible even at Speeds of 70 and 80 mph." Retro -reflective inaterial is available in 'either iron -on or sew on ,fabrics' and tape, so �',,bungsters can make up heir own designs. "Just be certain they will be .Visible from front, back And sides," Dr. Ingle said. - The other side of 'lloween safety is to see 4fely. A poorly fitted hilask, which can easily :,slip- out of position, or one *ith small eye slits poses ik potential danger '.because it can block a 't thlld's view of oncoming `ars, objects in his path, `Whole, a step or the curb. `'Dr. Ingle goes on to say ';be favors using makeup 's a disguise rather than asks. "With makeup, .e child has a normal field of vision and is less ely to have an accident because of not seeing "something ahead or to the Aide. *.. "Ile cautioned that the Sim P mle The re -runs of `summer T.V. are over. Too bad we can't say the same for some of those coni ,ilialer d ale. r makeup should be of the nonallergic type and should be * applied carefully by an adult to avoid getting particles of applicators in a child's eye. Dr. Ingle had some advice for home owners, too. "Turn on all porch and yard lights. Be sure your steps are well lighted and that all toys and garden tools ate -put away," he said. Parents accompanying their children on Halloween trek should be certain to, add retro - reflective material to their own clothing, the optometrist suggested, so that drivers can see them, too. ROWS All parents snouiU caution their children not to walk in the street (to use yards if there are no sidewalks), to look carefully before crossing a street, and to cross at a corner with a street light if at all possible.

(News - Record photo) I'd like to help you Kids but... When you're only six years old and it's your first Hallowe'en for UNICEF, those "buts" can really hurt. Like "I meant to get some change but ..." Or "Sure I care about ktds but .. Those little spooks and goblins know that 30¢ collected in their orange and black boxes often means the difference between life and death to a small,' friendless human somewhere in this world. So at Hallowe'en, when the young voices call "Trick or Treat for UNICEF", please don't give them any "buts." Help them to show their concern for the world's destitute children by putting a few coins in the UNICEF box. That kind of caring is desperately needed in our world today. 5 H.P./20"—Single Stage Snow Thrower Versatile 5 H P — 4 cycle Tecumseh winterized engine Gear transmission with F -N -R 10 00" x 2 75" semi pneumatic tires with factory installed wheel chains Clears a 20" wide path, 12" auger diameter. 15" intake height 545-269 Economical single -stage snowthrower with winterized engine for easier starting and key ignition/shut off 5 -position deflector vane with 90 discharge control adjustable handle and mid -mount grip for easy portability Clears a 20" path 545.268 Five forward speeds plus two reverse speeds Powerful Tecumseh Snow King engine with ring gear for optional electric start kit Extra large 2nd stage impeller designed for heavy loads Factory installed wheel chains, 14" x 4 50" pneumatic tires, dnft cutter, 26-" intake 545.262 CO-OP SPECIAL 5 H.P./24"—Two Stage Snow Thrower Hardworking snowthrower clears the heaviest snowfalls, cuts a 24" wide path 5 H,P.
