They will all be floating. flying, walking or crawling around Charlottetown tonight for it is the big night; for the wee ones - I-la.1lowe'en! Gone, but not quite forgotten, are the days when householders da-cadedf the black nighrt. They had reason to dread it as the youngsters of another era appear- ed bent on nothing but destruc- tion. No fence was safe, no build- ing immune. However, things are changed and tonight there will be a young host calling on all the homes lcoking for treats. They will be recipients of candles. apples. and, if they just happen to land at a home where the mistr-as finished her weekly baking, they might receive choc- olate cake or perhaps a few cook- ies. Anyway they can hope for the best. There are many factors enter- lng into the change from the days when wanton damage was the sole reason for going out on Hallow- e'en. A larger and strlctor Police Force had something to do with it in the beginning. But then the youngsters learned that though the Police might stop them from com- mitting really serious offences, at the same time they would look the other way when it was only harmless mischief. Police Understanding This factor was important as it bred into the kids a liking for- the "cops," and a bcttcir under- standing of the job they had to do in protecting the home-olvn- ers. At about this time service clubs realized that there was a. real job for them and here the Kinsmen Club took up the cudgels. As a result of their efforts the Armour- ies will be a. hive of activity to- night with hundreds of youngs- Commlttee was for its fine work.

Hours Of Fun And Frolic. For The Children Tonight tons in all types of costume pre- sent for the annual party which the club now gives. In addition to all the usual I-la.llowe'en party activltbes there will be various forms of entertain- ment providod for the little ones. And they are little, for they range in age from babes in arms to the younger teen-agers. This annual party serves a double purpose as it not only provides special fyln for the kids, but also serves to keep them off the streets and thus out of the trouble in which youngsters from time im- memorials have found themselves on this date. Broken Lights However, there still remains an element which appears determined to do damage to property. one on the most common, and at the some time most dangerous, practices is the breaking of street lights. The danger from this lies in the in- ability of elderly, and not so old. adults to see their way across in- tersections when there are no lights to guide them. Countless accidents have happened because of this and a speciailplea has been made to all party-goers or fun- makers not to break the lights this year. and club parties providing a full night's fun for both young and old. The long-time favorite, duck- ing for apples. will again cause plenty of matriment and there will probably also be many a sore nose as a result of trying to get a bite from the apple swinging on the end of a cord. But. it will all be good clean fun, and it will be thoroughly en- Joyed by all participating. And the Continued on page 15 B.i.S.

Mr. The second greatest increase in membership slnoe inoeption of the organization 16 years ago was re- ported by the president as he ad- dressed the annual meeting of the Charlottetown Credit Union held Cletus Murphy. presenting the report of the Board of Directors, said the membership was now 226, an increase of 6'1 over the previous year. He stated that over 86,900 was received in shares giving a share balance of approximately 518,000, an increase of nearly 35,000 com- pared to last year. However, he noted that the effect on increas- ed membership on higher share capital was lessened by the fact that some members failed to add to their shares. He said that new loans to members during the year were 129 for a total of sl2,l9i.65. Mr. Murphy told of the promo- tlonal campaign carried on in the city earlier this year through cir- cularizirlg the residents by mail. In this campaign efforts were made to thoroughly acquaint the people with the Credit Union idea and as a necessary follow up the Union opened a full-time office. He believed that this move had resulted in the gaining of many new members as the greater service facilities enabled the staff to bet- ter handle the flow of business. During the meeting it was agreed to pay a dividend of 2 per cent on shares and 1 1-2 per cent on deposits. The gathering also voted a slight increase in the amount paid to the treasurers as- sistant. In the election of officers Mr. Murphy was re-elected to the Board of Directors to succeed himself.
