Hallowe'en Passes with
the Children Enjoying
Themselves But Not
at Expense of Others..
"Yon pun teU tin: world Unit 1.a
firnndc children tire tin1 best In the
world." Police -r'htcf Clint Huvnes i
smilingly remarked to u newspaper j
man this morning. "They can tulk j
all they want to about the younger j
generation going to the dogs, but ;
VII buck up I.ii Grande's young
sters against any from any com- .
inunity barring none, j
"What little amount of juvenile!
crime oeeui'K In this city can be
laid to a small group the major
ity of'rhe children are perfect lu-.j
dies and gentlemen. . !
"Nothing can better illustrate J
litis than Hallowe'en. ''an you j
find any property damage any- j
wJiere In the city? No. For 1he
f'r;t time In years, mnvhe In the
city's history, hone owners awoke
the morning after to find their
places unmolested even woodpiles
remained untouched. j
"Hero and there you see soap
markings on windows- but that
doesn't comr under property dam-!
ago. ' The noap comes off too easy
to elans H as damaging unless the
csnenHe of a tittle muscle-grease
comes under that head.

of youngsters patrolled -the city
just ns they did in the past but
with the malicious Intent lacking.
Jack .o' lanterns. tlckUeks, and 1ho
like entered into the fun and a few
eases were found where air had
been let from automobile tires-, but
when you compare that with other
mornings after, when buggles'wcre
found on housetops, a cow in a
church steeple, n Houth side gate
on the nerth side, woodpiles und
' small buildings up-ended and in
some case ruined, it is nothing.
"I am absolutely proud of the
children of l,a Grande and I don't
care who knows H,"- he concluded.
Several of the rhlldr-n didn't
g'-i-homc before It o'clock Saturday
