A definite arrangement will be announced in the' next issue of the Plaindealer. Thus, since the business folks are endeavoring in this manner to show the young people a good time, they in turn expect the latter to co-operate with them by abandoning the age-old custom of destroying property and soaping or waxing windows. The city council has made it plrfirfNthat these destruc tive practices positively will not be tolerated. X And so, an appeal is also made to the parents. Please send your little would-be ghosts and goblins to the big party which will be arr ranged for them instead of letting them go out to play mischievous pranks. A great time awaits them!
