Something new has been added to Halloween in recent yeas. The
idea to turn the season of ghosts and goblins into a time for service, as
well as a time for pranks and fun for the younger generation, has
caught on .all over America; it is one more proof that the children of
the land for the most part lead useful, law-abiding lives, just like
their elders.
For the third consecutive year children of Medford and near-by
districts will collect money for the United Nations international Chil
dren's Emergency Fund (UNICEF). Sponsoring groups are Camp Fire
Girls, Rogue council, for the third year, and Medford branch, Oregon
United Nations' association.
The children of Howard school have their own project; they will
turn "friendly beggars" for the Friends' Service committee, and will
collect supplies for that organization's work overseas. Following the
collection, the "beggars" will return to the school for refreshments.
At McLoughlin Junior High school members of the Lettermen's club
are again supplying warning signs for homes where there are ill persons,
the tenth year for this project. In Jacksonville the Teenage club will
aid the UNICEF project, collecting funds during Halloween parties
planned for children and young people.
Boy Scouts will also go out door-bell ringing, but their project is
slated for November 3 and is a "get-out-the-vote" campaign. About
3,700 boys in the Crater Lake area, Jackson, Josephine and Siskiyou
counties, will participate, and it is estimated they will hand out 21,000
door knob hangers which read "Vote as you think but vote!" This
is part of a nation-wide Boy Scout project.
