Community, from (bur to. seven years.
Also, 78,7 per cent, of these respondents
were married, with 10,6 percent separated.
or divorced. -which Mrs. Anstett said "'would
seem to indicate a decline in the number of
single pnt,families in Vanastra,"
• When asked if they were happy living in
the community„ 78.3: per cent of the total
survey respondents, which included adults,
14 businessmen, teenagers and local Public

A. very exciting week is.
coming up as kids, In the
elementary schools, get to.
gether some interesting pic-'
tures about Hallowe'en,
These same kids hunt around
the house for some of Mom's
old sheets or a blade cape
and a mask. The many ever
popular ghosts and little Red
Riding. Hoods will be knock-
ing
nocking on doors yelling "Trick ,,or
Treat" very soon. Since l am
now finally too old to dress
up as a witch or clown, I look.
back over the years of
Hallowe'ensand laugh.
Like every other kid in the
town, I'd plan my I•ia1,
lowe'en costume inthe
beginning of May and .finally
get around to starting it on
October 30th. Most kids
dress up as witches, clowns,
cowboys, 'scare, crows,
queens, kings; rabbits, and,
cats. I'm sure I tried most: of
these ideasand lots more of.
my own originals. These
included an old lady, a large
pumpkin that had every side
on it, and my favorite one, a
garbage can! A store bought
costume would, never do mel
The funny part about it was
that the. times that 1: dressed:
up the weirdest were the.
times that 1 won a prize in the
school competitiont
I can remember when 1
was little, Mom used to
smear this awful stuff on my
face, put onthese ridiculous:
clothes and dress me equally,
hand:. me an empty plastic
bag and send me out of the.
house into a dark neighbour
hood full of .witches and
ghosts! I could never figure•
out what this annual.' disease
was but figured it was O. K,
because everyone : else's
mom had the same disease..:
It wasn't. until 1 reached
kindergarten that I. realized
that this disease was contag=

few years and dress myself in

out gathering, our earnings!
Something special about
Hallowe'en is when someone
buys or makes something
especially for you. The best
part about this is if your
mother makes some. candy
for some of your friends and
leaves you with the pots and
pans to lick out! The delic-
ious taste of chocolate and
maple fudge and carmel corn
just melts in your mouth as
youfinish the last mouthful
ofthe leftovers.
As the saying goes "Trick
or Treat", many people like
to play jokes on people on
Hallowe'en, This is fine just
as long as it :doesn't hurt
anyone else! One of the best
tricks often played on your
own family is to borrow one
'of your friend's costumes or
mask and trick or treat,.. at
your own house) The best
thing about this is that you,.
might get the: candy that your
mom is handing out because
shewouldn't know who you
are! I' playedthis trick on my
mom a few years. ago. 'It
didn't hurt anyone and it
sure did taste good!
Tricks like waxing win-
dows aren't too bad as long
as you keep it to wax that can
come off easily and you
don' t break the windows
you're: waxing! This is not a,
nice trick but • it's a lot better
than stealing some kids"
candy or taking them for "joy
rides-" The safest time on
Hallowe'en is between 6 and
8 o'clock. At this time there .,
will be lots of candy left and

I' didn't realize that the

made it! In order to fit in the
car, I had: to put in on, and
lie across the back seat, face

another house. That' was a
fun Hallowe'en!
Another :unusual' Costume

paper but that was not
enough. Iliad to rip up and old;
orange sheet of my mom's;
and put it aroun. d a brace
made of old Coat hangers and,
some additional pieces of
strong, rope; This made a
round shaped object that
would soon look somewhat
like a large orange pumpkin;
you would find in your gar-
den.. •For both of these rather
unusual costumes, I won a
prize!
Other events that are held,
on Hallowe'en night• instead'.
of trick or treating, are
Hallowe'en dances and par-
ties.
ar-
ties. These are just as fun, as
trick or treating but you don't
have to trot all over the
neighbourhood. Planning a
Hallowe'en party would be a
very busy thing to do but the
results are well worth it in
the end!
Hallowe'en is a really fun
activity that . has gone on for
years and years, It is. espec-
ially fun if no one gets ''hurt
and you get lots of candy!'
This last statement ;may,.
sound very selfish but it's
true.
Would you get dressed up;
in many weird costumes and:
walk all over town or drive all
Over the country just to go'.
say trick or treat to people if
you knew that.. you weren't
going toget any candy? Not
many people would, so don't
feel bad if ,you wouldn't,
Even if you don't get dressed
up and parade around the
street you earl still get the
Hallowe'en spirit right in
your own home as you let the
happy young ghosts acid
