The church basement was suitably - decorated with the usual black cats, bats, pumpkin faces, ghosts and festoons that make weird and eerie. Although costumes were few, yet the evening wis a jolly one. -One large black cat, the very largest ever seen in this neighbourhood, and walking on his hind feet--for He was none else than Puss-in-Boots, himself made his appearance on the scene. When it came time for the guests to sit down to tables, it was. decided to give the cat a dish of milk but he didn't want milk, so the queen said, "Off with his head". However, Puss didn't wait for some one else to do it, he took his own head off and then it wasn't a cat at all, but little Johnnie Kirkham!
