It Isn't, well. Jl Hallowe'en Did you hear on the grass' Mayhap a witch or a ghost pass. Was that the owl's low cry? Is that the wind among the trees? What voice is whispering in the breeze? Are spirits really nigh? That is the Hallowe'en of long ago when the Druids held sway over the tiny islands of Great Britain, although at that time this festival was known as Sand- heim, the end of summer, and ac- cording to custom, bonfires were built and sacrifices offered to the. Moon God and the Sun God as thanksgiving for the harvest. The Celts believed the Spirits of the departed souls returned once more to earth, and either cheer- ed or haunted the mortals dwell- ing there. By degrees the Christian spirit | was effused into this - Pagan festival and by Papal decree it became known as All Hallow's Day, when the church held a pecial feast in.remembrance of all the martyrs. In those days, in commemorating a feast, the cele- bration would start about six o'clock on the eve of thu feast and continue until six the next day, Thus the night before All Hallow's Day became known as All Hallow's Eve, October 31st, All Hallow's Eve or Even, grad- ually became contracted to Hal lowe'en, : Many superstitions became as- sociated with Hallowe'en, Eng- | land, Scotland, Ireland, Wales | and North America, all contribut- | ing their share, England gave us [as an old fortune telling with nuts and Spooky games followed apples, and witches and broom- | the usual Hallowe'en sticks, Scotland gave us the gob- | brought to a close a lin, Ireland donated story-telling | evening and the "little people", Wales gave us the most gloomy and| foreboding contribution of all. | On Hallowe'en every Welsh fam- fly built a large bonfire, Kach member of the family found a | flat, white stone, marked it and | threw it in the flames. Then they | solemnly marched around the fire saying their prayers and hur- | ried off and searched for thelr particular stone. If it were miss- | ing, superstition said, the owner would not live to see another Hallowe'en, Last, but not least, is North America's ccatribution of the huge yellow pumpkin with its glittering eyes and grinning mouth, Hark! that sound | for this.

The interesting cut of the mould- ed bodice extending into a deep point at the front proves a particu- larly slenderizing feature and gives lengthened line, . The skirt being circular falls so gracefully beneath the similar circular flaring hemline of the frock. The hem of the slip may be rolled by hand, which gives it a French finish or it may be fin- ished professionally with picot edge. Lace edging provides a dainty trim which may also trim the upper edge of the bodice, It can easily be made in an hour or possibly two. And the cost will prove surprisingly small, Style No. 228 may be had in sizes 14, 16, 18, 20 years, 36 and 38 inches bust. Size 16 requires 2% yards of 35-inch material with 3% yards of edging. are popularly used for the excellent service they give. Our Fall and Winter Fashion Magazine is ready.
