Legion Bazaar Attracts Many Shoppers By1ine... By Peter Parrott Section Two The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, November 3,1962 3 Marina Goes Western on Hallowe'en Night Crafts, home-baking, and a tea room were just some of the attractions of the bazaar held on Saturday, October 30, at the Legion Hall in Bowmanville. The vampires event took place from 11 a.m. to four p.m. and attracted a large crowd of shoppers. Here, Peter Newell, his son, Willy, and wife, Jane, check a few of the items on display at one of the tables. The final fragments of Saturday's jack-o'-lantern have been carved into next week's pumpkin pie. I've had a chance to sample this year's vintage of Hallowe'en candy and am wondering if I'll ever get my teeth unstuck. I even was invited to join an apple-dunking contest while taking pictures at a party for a Bowmanville Bowmanville cub pack last week. All in all. it has been a successful Hallowe'en. 1 don't know what your opinions might be on this subject, but as far as kids' enjoyment is concerned, I doubt that you can beat October 31 for good, spontaneous fun without a great deal of effort. Unlike Christmas, for example, Hallowe'en preparations don't take the logistical skill of a D-Day invasion. invasion. And pumpkins don't drop needles. With just one quick trip to any corner store, you can buy enough of the candy that sticks to your teeth like crazy glue to satisfy a whole conclave of witches or a flock of VOTE IVAN M.

With the province decreasing decreasing grants to local municipalities municipalities it is imperative to have qualified people on council to control spending. The burden to the taxpayer is becoming excessive. I am a strong supporter of industrial development. During my term as mayor, the Town of Bowmanville purchased large tracts of industrial land most of which has been sold without replacement. replacement. Our industrial position is in great need of reassessment. I support the development of parks and recreational facilities up to an affordable level.

If the occasion calls for costumes, costumes, you can find an appropriate wardrobe at the back of any closet, given enough time and imagination. Hallowe'en does not require the sending of greeting cards to names so numerous that they rival the subscription list of the New York Times. Hallowe'en also has the added bonus bonus of occurring in my favorite time of year -- between suntan oil and snow tires. It has all the advantages of autumn colors, apple cider, well- stocked vegetable stands at the roadside, and so much more. There are none of the disadvantages of winter weather fit only for reindeer and elves. In short, while Christmas takes a good six weeks to plan and execute and another six weeks for recovery Hallowe'en is simple. Naturally, I wouldn't downplay the importance of Christmas as a religious religious festival. By comparison, Hallowe'en Hallowe'en traditions in which all of those children dress up as vampires and goblins look silly and pagan. Moreover, Hallowe'en has too often been an excuse for the lunatic fringe to vandalize property. But aside from this drawback, who can beat Hallowe'en for the sheer fun of it.

When The Statesman arrived at Port Darlington Marina Hotel on Saturday night, the downstairs party was just getting underway. But on the main floor it was a western night with Mary Gill simulating Annie Get Your Gun. Many of the Gill's relatives had arrived for the family party, quite a few of them from Calgary so the theme was understandable.
