hazardous candle light your porch and clear obstacles from the garden to discour age pranksters and avoid tumbles in the dark help make your children visible to drivers bv dressing them in light colored costumes or decorate dark ones with re flective tape and to help them see better use makeup disguises instead of masks above all if you drive be doubly cautious on october 31st and keep a
