JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY,.OCTOBER 25, 1973 County Must Act Now Or Harnalsn Lose Ambulance Service coe.b .a ,After several months hav- ing passed by with no mention of the matter, it appeared the problem of providing gn ambulance ser-: vice for the County qualifying under new state regulations had gone away. But, like the prodigal child, it came home again Tuesday night, when the County learned it had only days to file a notice. of intent to do better and must be making plans for im- provements by January True,. the County -does- not have tdo get into the ambu-. lance service, nor are they required to secure or subsi- "dize private operators to '.furnish the service.. As it was explained to the County- Commission by Bob Smith of the Department of Commun- ity Affairs, Emergency Pre- paredness Division the pre- sent operators of ambulance must comply with new regulations or discontinue offering the -service. At present, Comforter Fun- eral Home is providing the, only ambulance service in the County, but- he has said he will do so only so. long as he can under past regula- tions. He has said .he cannot realize enough. out of the "service to offer it under new regulations. The new regula- tions call for. certain size vehicles', equipped with spec-. ified equipment and manned by a driver and a trained Mrs. Frances Chafin, Mrs. Larry Marie Anchors, and ... .............

Collecting Old Cars for Reef A campaign began' in earnest this week to locate all, old automobiles in the county and get permission from the owners to remove to a loading spot for transpor- tation out into the Gulf of Mexico. The project is being pushed by. the Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club to construct an artificial fishing reef out in the Gulf of Mexico. They are being aided in their efforts by Jthe County-wide Beautification Committee of the Gulf County Golden Anniversary Commit- tee. The latter committee is being headed up by Mrs. Bob Faliski., Mrs. Charles Burch and Mrs. Bobby Jackson.' The Committee and all ,members of the Kiwanis Club are armed -with consent forms, hunting down the junk cars. The people attempt to locate the owner of junk cars. get their signature on the forms allowing the car to be towed away and later remove the vehicle for transportation to the fishing reef. The Beautification Com- mittee has already secured the .services of the City of Port St. Joe and Gulf County to pick up fhe cars. The project is scheduled to get into high gear over the next two weeks. with a complete' canvass of every street in'the area anticipated. Redeeming Bonds The Port St. Joe Quarter- back Club will redeem 15 stadium bonds at the football game here in Port St. Joe Friday night. The Club will also be selling bonds at the game to. finance further 'improve- ments to the stadium. SEmergency Medical Techni- cian. In the words of Smith, "In. an ambulance approved by. the state, a 'patient can be liesurely transported to a hospital and will be receiving -medical aid all the way to the hospital via radio from a technician advised by a doctor at a hospital." But the cost is .another thing. As Commissioner Wal- ter Graham brought out, a minimum program for Gulf County would require eight men full time.

Associated Industries spear- headed opposition to Askew's corporate income tax during the early days of the' present administration. Askew press secretary Don Pride said Coldewey was chosen for, the position because he's "recognized as a leader in the business community". Named as vice chairman of the group was John H.

Twelve lovely girls at Florida's Silver Springs give a timely reminder to put the clocks back an hour when daylight saving ends the last Sunday in October. Etaoin Shrdlu by WESLEY R. RAMSEY How does that. nippy air grab you in the mornings these days;? I'll tell you right now, if a person just must get up in the morning, it's great to get up to a bracing cool morning rather than have to drag out of bed into another sweltering day. I'm all in favor of these fall days we're having. I notice, too, some of the leaves are beginning to turn and fall off some of the trees. Too, the turnip greens are becoming plentiful on the markets and in the back yard gardens. Spring has its tomatoes, peas, butter beans, sweet corn and other goodies of the land, but Fall has its fine eating too. There's sweet potatoes with flavor, the various greens, rutabagas, and the fruits, apples, oranges, grapefruit, tangerines and the like. Like so many vegetables and fruits synonymous ,with spring, we have them all year in Florida, but the taste is there only in the proper season.

The subsequent firing of Mr. Ruckelshaus and resignation of Attorney General Richardson added spice to an .already juicy story. Now the big "wonder" comes up to try and figure out why the president made such a move. There is no doubt but what Nixon's latest play in the game of impeach the President will add fuel to the desire of his enemies to have him impeached. It will also probably earn Mr. Nixon a few more unbelievers for his key chain. The President, however, goes merrily along his way, "doing his Thing" and seeming to dare those ivho oppose him to do anything about it. Whether the President was right or wrong in his latest maneuver, we won't hazard to say. -It does seem natural to assume the 'President should have people in his cabinet and on his team who are concerned with making his policies work. It was hardly any secret that LETTERS To The Editor Dear Wesley: There were so many people involved in the recent James Robison Crusade that it would be an impossible task to thank everyone individual- ly for their efforts, so I would like to usethis method, to thank them collectively. I1 feel Ihe Crusade was good Mr. Cox seemed more concerned with getting the President's scalp than he was in getting to the bottom of Watergate as he was ordered to do. In this respect, Nixon was right in firing the man, although it may not have been the expedient move to make at this particular time. When we consider Mr. Nixon's "guts" in this particular maneu- ver, its hard to believe he was afraid enough of Mr. McGovern and the fight he might give to do the things he is accused of doing. On the other hand, we believe his exceptionally loyal followers have been over-zealous in his behalf. We believe Mr. Nixon didn't Know of the dirty tricks until after they had been done. We believe he knew about them before the Washington Post and that he tried to sweep it under the rug while putting a stop to such practices at the same time. We remember Mr. Nixon's first coming into office when he said he wanted to be a President this nation would not forget. Regardless of whether he is impeached tomorrow or continues to serve out his term, there is no doubt he has reached his goal. come. It was great to see over 500 people come making a profession of faith in Jesus as their Saviour. Words are completely inadequate to express my appreciation to everyone who was involved in the work of the Crusade and I know the blessings they received will go with them forever. Prayerfully yours.

It was here and gone before we knew it. It's no big sweat, though,' since every week is National Newspaper Week with us. Isn't it for everybody? Just to let you know we aren't entirely asleep in such important matters, we want you to know this is National Cranberry Harvest Month and International Country Music Month. So, harvest your cranberries and cry with your country music. ' While National Newspaper Week is already gone, we saw a fine editorial on the subject, we wish to pass on to you. It was written in the Anniston, Ala. Star, and we know you will like it. Newspapermen have been up to a lot lately. They have been digging busily into the Watergate affair and probing police performance in New York City, looking into the financial details of Boys Town out in Nebraska and checking the purity of the municipal water supply down in Miami. And a number of them have been going to jail. Oh, you know about that? About Watergate and The Wash- ington Post's Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein? Sure, a notable piece of reportage they did, and the Pulitzer Prize board agreed. e Journalism is proud of them, as 9 it is always proud of hard-working, unafraid reporters and editors who dare to peel the wraps off a difficult story. 0 But the "big story" is just part of the story of America's mews- papers and the people who devote their lives to the public interest these days. Prizes and honors please newspaper people as much as anyone else. They highlight the journalistic homerun, reward extra' T effort and recognize exceptional performance and professional competence. iks rter Bank of id Gulf Breeze k. banks of Charter were not includ- oximity to banks National.

WhilE Bernstein and Woodward of the big Washington Post were winning Pulitzer for reporting, did yoi notice that the Pulitzer for editoria writing went to the tiny Berkshir Eagle of Pittsfield, Mass., or that the prize for feature photography went to Brian Lanker out in Topeka, Kans.? The point is that in almost every corner of America dedicated men and women, working on papers ranging in -size from' the Nashville, Indiana, Brown County Democrat to the powerful Chicago Tribune, labor earnestly for their communities and in a variety of ways. From the printer who volun- teers his time to coach a Little League team to the advertising solicitor who gives one evening a week to advising a Junior Achievement company, from the publisher who rejects the ease of the popular view to back a controversial editorial stand to the reporter who puts his personal freedom on the line to protect his sources, newspaper people partici- pate-personally as well as profes- sionally-in the community life that is the bedrock of America's strength. And very few of them do it for the occasional prizes; indeed, we're more accustomed to brickbats. We do it because we believe. We believe in the Constitution and the First Amendment and "free- dom of the press". We believe that freedom of the press is not our freedom but your freedom, and if we lose it none of us will be free for long. But we do it also because we believe .that professional commit- ment alone is not enough. For America's newspapers, large and small, and for America's thousands of newspaper people, ours is a personal commitment of both work and service. Newspaper Week 1973 is the occasion we use to renew and reemphasize that commitment. "" It's mean of me to remind you, but the fall and winter seasons also bring on the colds, the $ London flu and the Hong Kong flu. Time to get the flu shots and stock up on vitamins. If what I came across the other day works, e you might be able to kiss the cold and the flu You good-bye. ave According to this article, most people catch ead cold by touching another person's hands, not by lot being in the path of his cough or his sneeze. ere The author said, "It is far more likely that nen you can catch a cold by shaking the hand of a in person suffering from a cold, because a large fty share of cold viruses is passed on via the skin. So Shake the hand of a man who has a cold, touch the your nose or eyes with your fingers, and fish presto! you've infected yourself." sky he If you try this remedy-refusing to touch a his person with a cold and still come down with the one, don't blame me. I'm just repeating what ate Dr. Owen Hendley and his colleagues at the as- University of Virginia Medical School said. ere I don't know if you have noticed or not but today is the 25th. That means its only two months to Christmas. Isn't that a happy thought? Saturday morning I had to go to Wewahitchka for a 'little whil-e: On the way'- back I decided to take a short trip down to 'theb' Chipola River in the Land's Lake area and through the Dalkeith Road. These must be the fastest growing spots in Gulf County. It has been about five or six years since I went down in the Land's Lake area and I didn't e recognize it. A few years back I would go to the g Chipola River down this road at times to go a fishing. There wasn't a house on the road then, 1 just a few years back. Now it is built up solid. 1 The same is true for the Dalkeith Road. e People are moving to this area to get away from the crowded cities and are fast making y that area a crowded city in itself. There are a some fine homes in the area, built from the paved road all the way through the woods to t Burgess Creek. First the Koreans thumbed their small noses at us. Then the Vietnamese did it. Now it's the Arabs turn. The Arab nations have told us they will not sell us our oil as long as we give aid to the Jews in the war the Arabs started. I say "our oil" since American companies have developed the Arab fields and still operate them-or did until the Arabs decided to just take them over. Fifty years ago the United States wouldn't have stood for this. By now U. S. Marines would have been on Arab soil protecting American interests. Now, even Americans wouldn't stand for the Marines protecting what is ours. I know the oil is under Arab land and they have the right to do with it what they wish. It seems wrong to me though that the United States should be the target of the wrath of the Arabs when we were the ones who developed the fields which made the current Arab "muscle" possible in the first place. Personally, from what I read in the Bible concerning the Jews, I think our safest bet is to aid them regardless of what happens to the Arab oil. Leaflet Gives Tips A leaflet that explains how to apply for medical insur- ance payments from Medi- care is available at the Panama City social security office. Called "What Your Medical Insurance Pays," the leaflet explains how to submit claims, when and where to send bills for doctors' ser- vices, and how much Medi- care pays. The medical insurance part of Medicare helps pay the doctor bills and many other medical expenses of people 65 and over and severely disabled people under 65 who have been eligible for month- ly social security disability payments for two years or more. Single copies of "What Your Medical Insurance Pays" are free on request at the Panama City social security office, according to Robert Latta, Social Security Representative for Gulf County. Medicare is administered by the Social Security Admin- istration of the U. S. Depart- ment of Health, Education and Welfare. PAGE TWO THE STAR. Port St. Joe, Fla.

Gulf County has the largest adult education program operating in the State of Florida, considering popula- tion, director James McInnis told the Rotary Club last Thursday. McInnis said from 60 to 80 students each year graduate with a high schooldiploma from the classes offered at various centers throughout the county. In addition to the high school subjects, the program offers elementary education as well as various vocational subjects and spe- cial courses requested by groups. On a regular basis, the Institute offers general Wildlife Food Planted education, sewing, auto me- chanics, basic electronics, carpentry, drivers' ed., typ- ing, bookkeeping, shorthand and art. The speaker said that throughout the State of Florida the adult education program is curing illiteracy. -"But a strange thing is happening," McInnis said. "In the past the larger percentage of our illiterates have been non-white. This isn't so any more. The largest percentage is now found among the whites. The non-whites are taking more advantage of the opportunity being offered." McInnis said currently 320 are enrolled in the adult education courses throughout the county, with 79 of these enrolled in one or more of the vocational classes. SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE STAR! GARAGE SALE Thursday, Friday, Saturday Oct. 25, 26, & 27 FURNITURE, LAMPS, ETC. Mrs. Paul Fensom 901 16th St. Weimorts c "' -.arrs te carries the ball PANAMA CITY-Game management personnel of the Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission currently are planting winter food plots for deer and turkey on eight wildlife management areas in Northwest Florida, Charles J. Turner, regional game biolo- gist, said last week. He explained that game birds and animals require good natural foods and pro- tective cover at all times in order to survive, but that natural wild foods are supple- mented with plantings where possible when natural foods are scarce. This frequently occurs in winter in some areas, he said. Twenty-five acres already have been planted to wheat on the Aucilla Wildlife Management Area, and pre- paration of 50 acres of wheat seed bed is in progress on the Apalachicola Area, it was said. Plantings on these two areas are along existing power line rights-of-way. Turner further stated that planting of 40 acres of plots to oats began on Tuesday of the Edward Ball Area. Plantings there will be on winding six-foot-wide strips through the forest and natural habitat area, and the 40-acre total will be the equivalent of a 55-mile long six foot strip, of the distance from Panama City to Bristol. Benefit of the strip planting within the habitat area is that the supplemental food is readily available to game without necessity to "travel" to and from set-aside areas. He also said that 30 acres of plots will be planted, also to oats, on the Gaskin Area, 20 acres on the Robert Brent Area, 10 acres on the G. U. Parker Area, 30 acres on the Point Washington Area, and 80 acres on the Blackwater Area. Planting of all plots will be completed prior to the opening of the regular hunting season on November 10, weather permitting, according to Turner. A balance with any Florida National Bank will weigh in your favor. FLORIDA FIRST NATIONAL BANK AT PORT ST.

The First Baptist Church of Port St. Joe will observe "Great Day" in Sunday School this Sunday, October 28. A high attendance goal of 407 is the aim of the church school. Leaders of the church are enthusiastically inviting church members and friends ;fto'reach this high goal Every departmentt in the church has its own goal to reach. "Great Day" is a high attendance day in Sunday School but much more. It is a day to reach out for the unsaved and unlisted persons for Christ and church mem- bership. "Great Day" is a missions emphasis day and a day to receive a record amount of tithes and offer- ings. "Great Day" is also a Florida Baptist Convention emphasis. The convention has set a goal of 300,000 in Bible study in Florida Baptist churches. Rev. DeWitt Mat- hews, pastor of the church says it is impossible to reach this challenging goal without the wholehearted response in the churches and miracles of faith and work. The pastor invites all interested in Bible study to meet at First Baptist Church located in downtown Port St. Joe at 9:45 a.m. this Sunday.

Colonel Eldrige Beach, director of the Patrol said, "At this time of the year, car heaters are being turned on and windows rolled up. When -the exhaust system of a vehicle is faulty,. there is danger of carbon monoxide gas escaping into the passen- ger compartment. Replace all faulty or damaged ex- haust system parts immedi- ately." Carbon monoxide is a colorless and odorless poison- ous gas which can cause. unconsciousness and death. Leaking mufflers and tail pipes release their gases directly under a vehicle. According to the Patrol, a vehicle with an exhaust leak which is stopped with the engine running and the windows rolled up for a period of time can be extremely dangerous. Avoid following another vehicle close enough to draw its fumes into your vehicle through the heater or ventila- I, I N Checking Accounts * With minimum balance of $100.00 or more * For those 60 years of age or older, regardless of balance * For students, regardless of balance Provided depositor uses our personalized checks Brighten :Your Financial Picture With the Banking Services of Florida First National Bank at Port St. Joe .'-*1 -^ V' ^ a' 7 -U90UAYT IU I I C ELK IPLirlK - CATES ,OF- DEPOSIT.... interest payable quarterly' or semi-annually your option. -. $1,000.00 minimum.

THURSDAY, OCT. 25, 1973 ow ,Protected The remaining eight are Fisheries and Wild classed as migratory birds and, while the Commission Native game bir may set a hunting season, bob-white quail an the agency must follow turkey. Migratory established huntin guidelines established by the include the mouri U. S. Bureau of Sport rail, gallinule, Life. ds are the d the wild birds with g seasons ning dove, woodcock, snipe, duck, coot and crow. According to Dr. 0. E. Frye, Director of the Florida Commission, the crow has recently been added to the list of migratory .brds because of a treaty between the United States and Mexico covering the family to which the crow belongs. Frye said, "Prior to the new classification, crows were considered unprotected birds and could be hunted at Tm Air I Il any time. f'he new migratory bird treaty act protects the crow as a migratory bird; however, an open hunting season may be established by 'the states within a framework provided by the Federal agency."' The Federal framework provides that a state season not exceed a total of 124 days and that hunting not be allowed during the peak crow nesting season. The crow hunting season as established by the Florida Commission provides daily hunting from November 10 through January 13 nd weekend hunting on Satur- days and. .Sundays from January 19 through Februaryz 24 and from. June 1 through November 3 The season will be closed from February 25 through May. 30. In recognition of the destructive habits of crows, 'In Si'I both Federal and state regulations provide that, "crows may be taken when committing or about to commit depredation upon ornamental trees, agricultur- al crops, livestock or wild- life." According to Frye, there is no daily bag of possession limit; however, hunters will be required to possess a valid hunting license. Legal hunt- ing hours are one-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset, and the use of recorded crow calls or sounds is prohibited. "We feel", Frye said, "that the season as set by the Commission, which allows daily crow hunting during a general open season of 65 days plus a total of 29 weekend hunts, allows sports- men a maximum crow hunting opportunity within the Federal guidelines." k'i II t WHERE ECONOMY ORIGINATES Shop A&P For Y our Halloween Candy .._, .WE OFFER YOU THE FINEST QUALITY AND BIG SELECTION.

Andrews :and Smith said that as the result of a recent survey made by their department, :citizens of the county sug- gested the County offer the service in cooperation with --the cities in the county. : Their recommendation _:was to ask the City of Port :-St. Joe to cooperate to the -:extent of hiring several full time firemen and use them jointly in the ambulance :service. They suggested the A City -of Wewahitchka utilize ,tfie same system through :-th-eir police department and .the Volunteer Fire Depart- :-ment. Andrews said the County :must apply a letter of intent to the State by November 1 to -be considered for financial help and should file a plan of operation around November THURSDAY, OCT. 25, 1973 15. The Board agreed to file the letter of intent and to set up a meeting with the City Commissions of Port St. Joe and Wewahitchka for next Tuesday night at 7:30 to work out a plan for the service provided the communities wished to launch off into the venture. The alternative is no ambulance service for Gulf County after January 1 unless some steps for im- provements are made. An- drews said it would be a year at least before a service could be put into operation, but as long as progress was being made the present ambulance service could continue to operate in the meantime. FUNDS RETURNED Two divisions of the County government filed financial reports for the fiscal year just. ended Tuesday night, returning excess money back to the county. Clerk Core reminded the Board all divisions of the County government were required to file the reports by October but so far only reports from. his office and that of Sheriff Raymond Lawrence had been filed. Core's office returned $17,- 460.92 to the County and Sheriff Lawrence returned $7,488.06. PETITION A petition .;as presented the Board from residents in the St. Joe Beach area Tuesday night. The petition, signed by 128 residents requested the speed limit in the Beach area be set at 45 miles per hour. This has been the speed limit on the Beach during the fall and winter in years past, but this- year the Department of Transportation set the speed limit at 65 miles per hour. The Board agreed to request the State to revert back to the 45 miles per hour limit.

Two passes to Chason and the Sharks were on the 18. Dickens then plunged through the line for nine yards from the 11. Then Owens tossed to Tankersley who broke two tackles to score. The Sharks tried to get two extra points but were stopped cold. . Both teams threatened to score again, but both were stopped. With four minutes left in the game the Sharks were on the Tiger four with a first down. The Tigers held, though on their one foot line. The action which gave everybody palpitations was the last possession, of the Tigers. Chipley had worked the ball to the Shark four with less than .three. minutes to play. But Eddie Rich, who likes quarterbacks, grabbed Webb for a four yard loss. Then Webb was caught for an eight yard loss while trying to pass by Rich, Ronnie Kirkland and Carl Bailey. On his fourth down, Webb had his receiver on the goal line, but Russell Chason leaped up and deflected the Tiger's last play of the game.

Port St. Joe In Line To Receive $2.5 Million Dollars In Federal Grant Money TALLAHASEE-Some 140 Florida cities and counties will receive a $60 million federal "windfall" for sew- age treatment plants already built, state Pollution Control Director Peter Baljet said Friday. Baljet said the local governments could receive checks from Washington in two weeks as a result of a new funding formula adopted by the Federal Environmen- tal Protection Agency (EPA). "As they say, there is some good news and some bad news," Baljet told a news conference. "First, we have learned that more Florida cities will be eligible for reimbursement grants than we had originally thought. However, the origi- nal nationwide appropriation of only $1.9 billion for this purpose had not changed," he said. But Baljet said the changed' federal regulation would increase Florida's slice of the pie from about $10 million to an estimated $60 million, with another $20 million possible if a bill pending in Congress passes. Baljet said the EPA bowed to pressure from Florida and other states in scrapping a priority system which would Baljet said his staff had to scramble to submit the list of 140 projects from 300 applica- tions in time to. meet a Thursday deadline. He said the EPA advised Florida about the new funding formula Oct. 11. Baljet said he had high hopes that Congress would pass pending legislation allowing cities and counties to. finance sewage plant construction with local money and still qualify for federal reimbursements. Present law requires cities to use federal funds for sewer construction to be eligible for reimbursement. "We are confident that we now have submitted all potential reimbursement grant recipients to the EPA, and even amid the changing regulations, have met the deadline," he said. If the bill passes, Baljet said Florida would receive an additional $10 million to $20 million in reimbursement for projects constructed after 1956. But the deadline for apply: irng for reimbursement would be extended until the end of 1973, delaying receipt of federal money by cities now scheduled for reimburse- ment, he said. Receives ROTC Proficiency Award. FT. BRAGG, N.C.-Cadet Gregory B. Bozeman, 20, son of Mr. and Mrs. Willie C. Bozeman, Route 1, Wewa- hitchka, was awarded the physical proficiency. award upon his recent completion of six weeks of reserve officers training corps advanced summer camp at Ft. Bragg, N.C. The award was presented in recognition of his being among the top five percent of all cadets in physical profi- ciency at the camp. have funneled the reimburse- ment grants to cities with extreme pollution. A threatened Florida suit challenging the priority sys- tem, prompted by angry cities left off the first reimbursement list, helped to "finally penetrate the line of thinking in Washington," Baljet said. He said the pollution control department hoped to "honor prior commitments" to the four Florida cities scheduled to receive the original $10 million in grants. Those cities are Jacksonville, Port St. Joe, Atlantic Beach and Neptune Beach. The new EPA formula will reimburse cities up to 30 percent for sewage treatment facilities completed between 1956 and 1966 and up to 55 percent for projects finished between 1966 and 1972, Baljet said. The amount actually received by local govern- ments would be based on the reimbursement percentage a city qualified for, along with the amount it already had received and the total funds available, to Florida. Baljet said cities could use the reimbursement funds for any municipal purpose like "building parks or schools."

Each year, far too many children are injured and killed Halloween Eve by motorists unable to see them darting unexpectedly into the street. Others are badly burned as their costumes are ignited by flames from lighted candles and lanterns. These tragic situations could be avoided if parents would observe rules of good sense and safety, such as the following suggest- ed by Liberty Mutual Insur- ance Companies. Use 'only bright costumes. A white-sheeted ghost is more easily seen by a passing motorist than a black-clad witch. But even brightly clothed children may be hard to distinguish as the evening darkens so florescent strips which would make them,, even more visible, is suggested. Do not allow children to carry lighted candles, or lanterns, or any type of open flame. Many children have been burned in past years when their costumes, often made of extremely flam- mable material, caught fire. A flash-light would be easier to carry, and would also make crossing the* street safer. Be sure to chaperone all children who would not normally be allowed outside alone at night. Younger children should be out only in the early evenings. The discreet presence of an adult can stop a problem situation from developing. A major problem each Halloween is children who have been cut, drugged, or poisoned. Apples and cup cakes can have razors hidden in them. Any kind of non-commercially packaged edible can have drugs or other poisonous ingredients added to them. Be very careful that gum, candy, and other snacks are securely wrapped, and that the wrapping has not been opened and resealed. It is best to trick or treat in your neighborhood. Keep a light on in-front of your house so that there is no danger of children being injured by walking into PAGE ELEVEN objects or holes they cannot see in the dark. If there is a pet in the household, keep it away from the door. Children enjoy putting on make-up as part of their costume but be careful of what they use. Cheap make- up can in many instances cause complexion problems for youngsters-or hurt their eyes. Finally, when your child goes out for the evening, make sure you know where he or she is going and when he or she should return. Halloween can be a real treat for everyone. One way to ensure it is to follow these simple rules of safety. The result will be an enjoyable and safe evening for children and parents alike. Safety on Halloween is not a magic act.
