The editor of The Statesman has only mîssed three conventions since the association was organized 31 years ago, but he had to pass it up this year due to a recent illness. Local Goodyear plant does big 1things in a big way which aur »citizens seidom hear. That was the thought which came te our mind as we saw a photo in the October Wmngfoot Clan. It pic- tured a 30-inch wide, 6-ply con- veyor belt made in the Goodyear plant here, ta *span a 2,400-foot Bailey Bridge across the Ottawa River. This belt was used an the giant Des Joachims Hydro Elec- tric power project and carried 2,000 tons of concrete aggregate per hour. That's a lot of cement but leave it ta Goodyear belts ta deliver the goads! It is welcome news for the kiddies, and aIder folks, too, that a Christmas Parade and Party is ta be staged in Bowmanville early in December, and we are ahl for il. But we don't see why Town Council or service clubs should be asked for grants for this gala function. Such affairs in other places are eonsldered a strictly commercial proposition put on as a publicity or advertis- ing stunt by the local merchants ta attract Christmas business ta their stores. Sa why ask the over-burdened taxpayer ta pay the shot? We think the majority of the merchants, and we're one of them, should be willing and are wehl able ta meet any finan- cial obligations incurred in spon- soring such a party. Let's not play Santa Claus by proxy.

Proof: Since the gtala Hallo- we'en party is coming off tonight (Tuesday) and yours truhy wilh be to0 full of do-nuts and eider ta have a write-up handed in on finie,, thérefore the col- uma is short and sweet. Sec yau next week. Snce proofs ta a deduction are in style, why not put in the sec- ond proof, the big Hallowe'en ,,, ..ile witches, goblins, ghosts, Nwes and pranksters roamed around ouf doors, the students af B.H.S. were in the schooi enjoy-1 Ing an evening offtun, complete wlth costumes, frivoiity and bih- arity. The event was the gala Haihowe'en party sponsored by the Athletic Association. To start the evening's pranks and laughter, there was a basket- baîl game-weih, they cailed it that, anyway-between the boys' and girls' basketball teams. The game was played partly by girls' ruies, partly by boys', and mosthy Pyno ruhes at ail, with the three capable (?) referees handing ouf basketball, football and other pen- altiles right and left. Somehow they didn't seem fa know o much about the game. These were uniformed, two hooking like fugitives from some eheerheading squad, the other la uniform boa, but she made the reporter promise nat ta breathe a word about if. Those who were at the game saw for themselves. If turned out that Miss Bell, Miss; Smeatan andl Miss Cunningham were the referees. Incidentally, the boys won the game. Another comicai happening was. the lady trundiing a pram across the gym floor in ane of the time- out-for-resf periods. She looked like a well-liked member of the sehool staff, but Mr. Endersby wouhdn't 15hay a rick like that! After this gay game that kepf audiences aughing, the whole mob assembled in the auditorium for games, movies, square dan- cing, and a gay time in general. For a while, if looked as if there1 wauhd be no apple eider for thej students, but the pranksters who had hldden it brought ib back again, and everyone enjayed doughnuts and apple eider. The next big night on the sehool agen- da is the TWIRP dance Friday night. When the heart speaks, how- ever simple bhe words, its lang- uage is always acceptable ta those who have hearts.-Mary Baker Eddy.

Very Little Damage Reported by Police For Hallowe'en Police report Haliowe'en nigh camparativeiy quiet, but here wai same property damage donc by youngsters ouIta play tricks and have fun. Someone threw a bottie thraugh a window in a South Ward home. This type of vandalism, -'accarding ta police, is dangerous. A per- san, besides being seriously hurt by the bottie, couid suffer severe cuts from fhying glass. In other sections of fown, com- mon every-day Haliowe'en-day pranks were pulled. The huge tire. advertising the business ot F. G. Jamieson's Tire Shop on King Strict found a new resting place on a telephone pale in front of NichaIs Garage at Silver and Church Streets. Verandah steps, naturaliy, de- cided they wanted ta tura upside down wifh the hehp of youthful hands. and wooden fences in same sections of the cammunity were pulied fram their earfhen bed. According ta police, most of the damage done in tawn hap- pened around midnight. In fact, a traffie sign near the home af Police Chief Ventan was bent ah- most parallel ta the ground. The bannister on the Coid Springs Beverages' stairway was puiled dawn and an eavestrough fram a home on Division Street ended up partly on the roof of a car and partly la a tree. King Street merchants were greeted with soaped-up windows when they apened up for the day's business. AUl in ail, it was a quiet night, according ta police. Hallowe'en Party (Continued From Page One) managed ta crawl into one pair of pants and one shirt, won fir.zt prize for their impersonation of a "Two-Headed Freak fram Bar- neo" as the sign on their back read. Nancy Mitchell, as a pir- ate, placed second and aur aid friend, Santa Claus as portrayed by Sylvia Coveriy, came la for third prize. But prize-winner or not, every yaungster at the Arena seemed to have a roliicking good lime. Don Shay, as master -of ceremonies, led the dressed up population 1L) town in a sing-song, then young entertainers took aver the plat- form. Helen and Mary Laskaris staged a saff shoe dance ta begin the program, and June and Joan Muffon, darkies, reported ta be 'aIl the way up from Alabama,' tapped their way mbt the hearts of the aduif crowd ta the strains af aur aid friend, 'Goodnight Irene." Everybody Wins Then ahi the kids had a chance ta do a hittie acting. Four were called ta the piafform and simnul- taneously spoke on individual subjects. The contestant with the crutch won hands down-he macle the most noise. And the balloon- biowing contest drew a host of long-winded yaungsters. Appar- ently, Bill Clark had the most wind in view of the fact that heý won the race. But Nancy Van- Bridger held her own when it came ta the soda biscuit-eating, and whisthing contest. She easiiy downed her four soda biscuits and was the first ta sponsor awhse when she had finished. Everyone got free appies and eaady-everyone tried ta cate., a balloon that feul from abave and if appears as if everyane, la- cluding the older folks who wer home haughing, had a wonderful. if flot toa scary, Haiiowe' en time. Long Service Men (Continued tram Page One) Sid's association with Goozi- year started in the Boiler Roorn back la 1915. Then in 1917 " was transferred ta the Powe, House where he has been ever since as Chief IEngineer of the1 plant. Next in hine is that sturdy Britisher Arthur Jones with ý->u years service. Arthur wvho is in the Hase Department came ta Canada and Goodyear back n 1920 from Newport, MoauthshirL, South Wales. He says he just took a pin and stabbed if aI a map of Canada and Bowmanviile was the spot chosen. Actually he came ta Goodyear as a result af answer- kng an advertisement which was carried in an English paper. Af- ter some correspondence with Mr. Hardy, Art came ta Baw- manville and has been here ever uince. lie is an ardent agriculturist and maintains a miniature farmi Up in thea aristocratie NorthWr section of the tawni whichsp ports a cow, a fiock of chickens and a large garden. These men have well merited top ranking in the Goodyear. Rall of Honour for long and f aith- ful service. For it is such loyal employees wha take a real pride in rendering a service af accomp- hishment that has built Goodyear from a smaii beginning ta now the largest rubber industry in Can- ada. Such long records of long service is also a doubie-barrelled compliment ta bath management and employees. The Statesman joins with their many friends in extending cor- dial and sincere congratulations ta these veteran Goodyear em- ployees. Oshawa Presbytery Y.PU.
