HALLOWE'EN
Fun and Frolics
Would not be half so gay without masquerades an?
pumpkins and ghosts and such like, so I went searching ;
to see what new ideas I could get for the annual party.
Up on the Fourth Floor there are many tables filled with
all sizes of pumpkin lanterns, and cut-outs, ahd favorsgj
and new kinds of false faces attached fo a long stick, sera

all kinds of noise makers that seem part of a Halloween7"
frolic Giddy skeletons dance on a string, and even if
you thought last year that there could not possibly be any
new ideas brought out this year, just go up to the Fourth
Floor and see how mistaken you have been. Of course,
little folks would not have half as much fun on Hal
loween if they could not "dress up," so I looked around.
to see what I could find so that busy mothers' who afe4
knitting and- doing all kinds of war Work need not stop
even to help out in the little folks' frolic I found aU
sorts and sizes of fancy costumes, made and ready to bc
put right on. There are costumes for girls and boys, of
all sizes, for there .are costumes for gypsies, jesters,
clowns, jockey girls, Yama Yama, witches, mandarins,
Pierrot and Pierette, nurses, Chinamen, and girls from Hol
land, Belgium, England, Italy, and France, as -well as
our own Liberty girl. And in one case I saw Uncle Sam's
own hat waiting to be worn by some patriotic young
American. There is too much happiness tied up in Hal-,
loween celebrations to let even one pass by without-
due festivities, and even if you are busy you had bisi'-s
stop and frolic on Halloween, else the "Grfblins uflrgifF
