The Magic
By MAUDE DAY BALTZELL
Just as the hotly belongs to
Chrfttmas, bo does the pumpkin
belong to Hallowe'en; and Just as
we think of noise on July Fourth,
so do we think of magic und whis
pers nt Hallowe'en. '
The Magic Fumpkin Is an In
door game to be played after dark.
Cut the top off a large pumpkin
and hollow out the body of the
pumpkin with a large iron spoon.
Place this pumpkin shell on a
chair at the center of one end of
the room. Have the two young
est players choose sides which are
to form in lines parallel to the
direction that the chair faces, each
line about three feet from the
chair. Six feet away from the
chair, and directly in front of it,
place a mat or a folded news
paper. ThiB mat is called the
magic carpet.
Beginning with the player at the
left end of youngest player's lino,
each person in this line steps. In
turn, lo the magic carpet and is

The players are divided into two
teams, one side being called the
ghosts, and the other side, the
witches. J5nnh player, one at a

Sermon on
the Vanity Case
No one can object to a woman'
putting her best foot forward be
fore marriage, but it Is not wise to
put It any farther forward than
she means to keep putting It for
ward. If he liked powder and
rouge, manicured nails and mar
oeled locks before he was married,
you may be sure that he will after.
Because he is yours "for keeps."
do not make the mistake of spruc
ing up only when you expect to
see some one besides your hus
band. Use your vanity case every mor
ning. If disillusionment must
come, let them come gradually nnd
from necessity. Do not let him
think that he has been deceived:
.that the girl he wooed and the
nife he won re different women.
T
Nobody enjoys loafing like the
man who works for It,

given a soft ball which he is to
throw into the magic pumpkin
three times. If the thrower is
successful in getting the ball into
the pumpkin every time he throws,
he is given a bonus of ten points
as well as five points for each suc
cessful throw, making twenty-five
points in all. A thrower who misses
would have five points taken away
from his score for each failure.
Each one keeps track of his
points and when everyone has had
a chance to try his skill, the two
lines compare their total number
of points and tho line having the
greatest number of points is the
winner. The two players on thin
line with tho greatest number' of
points to their credit have the
privilege of choosing sides for the
next game. The magic carpet may
be moved farther than b!x feet
from the magic pumpkin if the
players are boys or girls who have
played enough baseball to be skil
ful at aiming the bail.
And keep your shadow slim.

n point for his team. At the end
of the game, the side having the
most points win.
Pumpkin Pathway
Arrange a row of pumpkins
down the room about two feet
apart. Then blindfold one of the
boys, telling him he must walk
down the room without stepping
on a pumpkin. These latter are
quietly removed, but, of course,
the boy will walk carefully, step
ping high, and this will cause a
good laugh.
Heavy Aluminum
Saves Fuel and
Preserves Juices
Heavy aluminum with a fitted
lid cooks with little or no water
how much depends on what is
being prepared thus preserving
all the juices of the vegetables nnd
meat which we now know contain
many of the food elements most
essential to our health. Because
of its thickness, it keeps the food
from burning easily, thus pre
venting waste. Less fuel is re
quired for cooking, and cooler
kitchens are a consequence, as the
heat is kept in the utensil rather
than spread throughout the room.
Last but not least. It wears almost
forever, so that there will be no
replacement costs to " face.
To my notion, this type of al
uminum takes the place of the old
heavy cast Iron ware of our grond
mot tier's day. In the successful
way certain foods can be cooked
In It, slowly and thoroly, and It
fulfills this purpose even better
than the former ever did. By using

pans, two and even three articles
can be prepared t one time on
one burner of an oil, gasoline, gas
or electric stove; this saves fuel
and extra heat in the room.
