So it seems the true significance of Halloween rarely is the concern of children, who go out for trick or treat each Halloween. Unlike the beautiful Christmas Story, the explanation of Hallow- een and its present celebration is so complicated, one must go to the library and read many books to absorb the entire picture. Then, sit down and dream about the days before Christ. Suffice to say is that, All Saints Day is Nov. 1 on all Christian church calen- dars. The best-known feature of All Saints Day is not the day itself, but the evening that preceeds it: Halloween. Strange fact is that, all the typical Halloween pranks were happening Oct. 31 before Christ- ianity and All Saints' Day. The entire situation goes back to the! time of the Druids in Ireland, when the souls of the departed were to appear. No one wanted to face ghosts alone, so people gathered in groups for security and to en- joy themselves. Hollowing out a pumpkin to make a jack-o-lantern is some- thing we have done the night be- fore Halloween all our lives, and we are still doing it! Now living on Harstine, each spring when we tuck that pumpkin seed in a hill of dirt, we think of Halloween. The Irish in Druid days, used po- tatoes, turnips and even rutabagas to hollow out and make faces on, to help scare ghosts away. Jack of the lantern was a mean, .stingy soul, living in Ireland hundreds of years ago, he had no place to go. So it is with the pumpkin to- day. Make a mean face on that pumpkin you hollow out. A real fun Halloween celebra- tion for kids 3 to 10 has been planned on Harstine for the 11 children eligible. The ones in Har- stine school have been making their own masks this week and will have a party Friday after- noon in the school house, complete with program and refreshments. A committee composed of moth- ers, Donette Glaser, Carmen Yates, Lois Meeks and Miriam Bridges, will take the children out in cars around the Island Saturday Night, Oct. 30 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. to Trick or Treat. if you have not already signified your wish to have these Harstine Goblins and Ghosts call on you, phone 426-8871.
