Let everybody blow horns, kazoos and other noisy instruments. Let jokes, yells, songs and laughter ring out a3 much as they will," is Professor McKeever's modernized Hallowe'en plan. Open Hcuse for Revelers. "Let certain churches, schools and club centers keep open house for the marching hosts of revelers, giving them a simple hand-out as they pass, and vie with the marching groups in pulling off a stunt of their own. "Thus you may harness the energy which God has stored in the lives of boys and girls and make it pull a load for happiness and righteousness a-like.

There is nothing the matter with Young America. When I visit your city on Hallowe'en and find you are defying the boys with1 threats of punnishment and imprisonment in case they do any deviltry I always sneak out -and join them and try to put it over. Let Them Frolic. "We have a way of expecting boys to be brave and courageous at all mes, excepting Hallowe'en Then we pretend that they should be soft milk-sops and go to bed at 8 M. in order to keep out of trouble.

Red-blooded America is not of this sort, so I say, get out and romp and frolic with the young crowd. Be 'one of them, both in conduct and in spirit, and thus conserve, their God-given energies rather than try to suppress them." GOSSirOF THE STREET Charges Assault On complaint of W. R. Koons, C. W.
