boys to decorate the puhc places with old buildings this pas tlmehasbeen indulged in annually for decades hence to keep the coast clear as it were was something of an achievement -it- was to be expected that the boys would go easy this year there is a war on and many pontes were unprotected as the occupants were in pickering serving on war jobs it was hardly to be expected that while under such conditions these folk would be pounced on by school boys but in some instances this very thing happened when shanties were overturned while the owners were away on war workhow ever all in all things were not so bad there was a distinct shortage of bigger boys to carry out halloween nuisance pranks as so many have left the community or taken work that left them no time for foolery red cross
