There seem to be a logical reason for them. So? There any logical reason for lots of things. Any- ody who ever lived with a 15-year- old could tell you that.

he most common idea about the istory for jack-o-lanterns goes ack to the Irish legend of Stingy Jack. Stingy Jack was a mean old miser who loved to play malicious tricks on people. He once ran into the Devil and convinced him to turn himself into a coin so he could buy a drink. Then he dropped the coin into a ocket next to a silver crucifix, rendering Satan powerless. another occasion Jack con- inced the Devil to climb an apple ree.

Why Satan fell for this after the coin trick I know. Once the Devil was up the tree, Jack carved a cross on the trunk so the Devil could not climb down without touching it. Eventually, Stingy Jack died and applied for admission at the Pearly Gates. St. Peter looked over the old record and decided he the type for Heaven.

Jack found himself at the ates of Hell. Satan, remembering he coin incident and the business of the apple tree, turned him away. Instead, Stingy Jack was doomed to wander the world at night, lighting his way with a candle in a hallowed out gourd or beet. In the New World, where pumpkins were plentiful, that became the gourd of hoice. So on Halloween, we light pump- ins with scary faces to ward off the host of Stingy Jack and the other estless souls that haunt the night.
