PAGE TWO COMMONSENSE ON HALLOWEEN HOLDS IN SWAN QUARTER By MISS ALEPH CASON The Swan Quarter community is to be congratulated on its suc cess in providing something con structive for its youth and adults to replace what is now referred to as vandalism on Halloween night. Here was a good example of a community facing up to its obligations to the youth in offer ing a wholesome outlet for their pent-up energy, and also a good example as to what a group can do when they are willing to give of their time and talents for the good of the community. As planned, all the youth, who would and all the adults who could, assembled in the pasture about 6:30 p.m. The children were divided into different age groups with an adult assigned to each group and with brooms as trans portation fumised by the witches in attendance, they visited the homes and the stores in the com munity. The residents responded nobly and the results materialized in more cash for recreation proj ects in the community. When the groups returned to the pasture, a huge bonfire was lighted, much to the delight of all the kids present, and games were enjoyed by all ages under the supervision of Mrs. Carolyn Harris, Rev. and Mrs. Leighton Lewis and during this period ev eryone stuffed his tummy to the limit with free cookies, drinks and roasted marshmallows served by Mrs. R. G. Baum, Mrs. George T. Davis and Mrs. Bill Miller. It seems, there is always one witch who will not play the game along with the other witches, so this one proceeded to take the keys from the broom of Gilbert Tun nell leaving him strandeed in the middle of his rounds. This meant he had to ride double with a gob lin and the result was a burned out broom. Mrs. Tommy Gaylord, Mrs. George T. Davis John Pendleton, Durwood Tunnell, and Gilbert Tunnell did a smash-up job of footing it around town with the kids and their contributions helped tremendously. All in all, about 75 attended the fun filled evening and it is hoped that with the years to come the event can be made an annual affair and can be present ed on a much broader scale. Mrs. Baum and Mrs. Davis are to be commended on instigating and following through the idea, the first of its kind for this commu nity, yet, quite successful thanks to the kids who cooperated whole heartedly. It is worthy to note that only two instances of “trik in” were reported and these ■were not on the night of the “Spook Party.” All proceeds collected during the visiting were handed over to {AUhough this is addressed to Chevrolet owners, we’d be glad to have you read it, no matter what make you now own or plan to buy. It might well be as interesting and significant to you as to the Chevrolet owner.) TO THE MORE THAN 16 MILLION PEOPLE WHO OWN CHEVROLETS The first and the latest—the 1912 and the 1960 Chevrolet.
