THE ORIGIN OF HALLOWEEN
Halloween is a very ancient festival, whose origins
probably antedate recorded history, but appears to have
been the outgrowth of the custom of lighting sacred fires
on prescribed occasions. In olden times an essential fea
ture of the celebration was the lighting of a bonfire at
nightfall by each household.
In Ireland and in parts of Scotland a similar festival,
called Beltane, was observed by lighting two fires close
together, when both persons and animals would pass be
tween them in the belief that disease would thereby be
warded off. Accounts of such a ceremony were recorded
as early as about the year 908 A. D.
In Germany similar rites were held with a view of
appeasing evil spirits, these also being observed with cer
tain variations in Spain and Italy. China and Japan hold
ceremonies for the entertainment of ghosts, when the
streets are lined with lanterns.* It is said that some Amer-*
ican Indian tribes had similar customs.
Running through the history of Halloween is the idea
that spirits, mostly evil ones, were abroad on that night,
which idea doubtless gave rise to the modern custom of
playing pranks, such as ringing door bells, carrying away
gates and generally displacing anything lying around
loose. Fortune telling and other mysterious proceedings!
naturally came to be features of the observance.
Halloween comes on the night of October 31, an oc
casion of delight for the young, but of apprehension for
those who are likely to be the victims of ghostly pranks.

SERVICE MEN WELL CARED FOR
Along with the many other things the democratic
party is trying to bring up to obtain votes for A1 Smith is
the treatment the ex-service men have received from the
republican administration during the last eight years.
The charge is made that nothing has been done for I
the ex-soldier, that promise after promise for relief had |
been made, only to be forgotten or disregarded.
Nothing could be farther from the truth. The soldier
has been given everything their organization has asked
for in the way of legislation. Adjusted compensation,
provisions for the best of care for the disabled, rehabili
tation for those who were partially disabled, and free
hospitalization for all ex-service men, regardless of
whether illness was due to war service, are some of the
things the present republican administration has done
for the men who served the nation during 1917 and 1918.
Nothing further is being asked for the relief of the
soldier, and the efforts of their greatest organization, the
American Legion, are being directed more than ever be
fore into channels other than that of legislation for the
veterans. Ex-service men can not ask for more fair laws
than are now on the statute books, passed by a republican
administration.
