Making masks and costumes .v-it° school or work after such a

tng Christmas presents for old
aunts, they have never seen and
the usual presents for the family.
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
