Holloween Damage
No one objects to the youngsters
having fun, 011 Hallowe'es. Candies
and other goodies are readily and
cheerfully handed out to the young
spooks and gobline, who call at our
homes. Pranks, such as removing
steps and gates, upsetting wood-
piles and soaping windows, which
cause considerable inconvenience
and work, are endured, by most
people, with tolerance and under-
standing when they pause to recall
their own youth and Hallowe'en, but
when it comes to destruction of
property, particularly in wartime,
by girls and toys well on in their
teem and who undoubtedly know
b:etter, it is conedderee the work of
hoodlums who have no respect tor
the property:of othets. The fact that
the greater part of the damage was
done during the early hours of Sun'
812' morning doesn't improve the
situation but makes it worse In the
