"Children must have time to dream. and time to imagine,"' he stated.

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= ions and I'd soil catch it in a few years and dress myself in theseweird costumes: On Hallowe'en night • at dinner time we would all Happy B'irthday,.

Costumes can be a bit of a problem for many mothers around Hallowe'en time be- cause it is very seldom.that a Ilio* Weird: :can you getl) t was !sed toi Walking around town; therefore t,eou,td wear these crazy outfits that I designed: That year I rode in my friend's car with five of us struggling to. get into the eens, When other kids that we knew would come to our door at seven o'clock and we weren't ready we'd hide in the other room until they left.. It was awfully embarrassing not to be one of the first kids,. 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 ¶oduIeii Quasar's'byna-ModuleiChassis is designed for outstanding reliability, 9 contains fewer parts and less wiring than our previous chassis so there's LESS TO GO WRONG one great idea after another diaponoi. • Dyrnabrite 11tJ Picture.

For example, one year I went trick or treating out in the country with a friend..Thatyear 1 decided to dress up, as a garbage can! car.!'. I' didn't realize that the cardboard: mess would not fit in the car at the time that I made it! In order to fit in the car, I had: to put in on, and lie across the back seat, face down until we came to another house. That' was a fun Hallowe'en! Another :unusual' Costume dist t made with the help old my ,tapm was a large pump_ ki n,1 eould've bought a pig of large orange ccnstructioa 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 witches intoo y ur hallto give them candy that they earn.
