    Have A Safe
Halloween
Halloween traditions dress
ing up in costumes, carrying jack
o’-lanterns, telling stories around
a fire, and trick-or-treating
have been around for centuries.
This is one of the oldest celebra
tions we have, reflecting tradition
and revelries, that has evolved
over 2,000 years and through
many cultures.
There is no real trick to making
Halloween a treat for the entire
family. However, the responsibili
ty for a safe and enjoyable occa
sion is shared by adults and child
ren. The dangers are not from
witches or spirits, but rather from
falls, pedestrian and car accidents,
and deliberate Halloween hazards.
Will your child’s costume be
safe? Buy or design costumes so
youngsters can walk easily with
out tripping or falling. Baggy
pants, long skirts or wide capes
can become entangled in bushes,
hedges or fences.
Costumes should be light
weight and fit properly. However,
they should be large enough so
warm clothing can be worn under
neath if it is cold outside.
Comfortable, sturdy, well-fitted
shoes are a must. Clumsy, floppy
clown feet, heavy boots, dad's old
garden shoes and mom’s hr

heels may contribute to Calls and
spilled treats.
Whiskers, beards, wigs and hats
should be fastened securely and
designed so they do not get into
youngsters’ faces, obscuring
vision.
All costumes should be highly
visible. Light and bright colors are
preferable. At dusk and at night,
reflective tape or trim is needed.
Place it on the arms and legs or
feet or across the chest and back
for greatest visibility.
Buy flame-resistance costumes
or make them from flame-resistant
material. Look for the marking on
the end of the material bolt or on
the box the purchased costume is
in.
Carrying flashlights will help
children see better -and be seen
more clearly. Never allow anyone
to walk using a lit candle for a
light.
Masks can .obstruct a child’s
vision. Facial make-up is safer,
more colorful, and more comfort
able. If masks are worn, they
should have openings for the nose
and mouth, and large eye holds for
good visibility.
Plan and discuss the route trick
or-treaters intend to follow before
they leave home. Do not allow
young children to travel alone or
unsr 'vised. They should be

Joan Hershey led in the devo
tions and prayer. Vice-president
Lois Brubaker conducted the busi

of making ice cream. She is the
daughter of Polly Krcidcr.

accompanied by an adult or
responsible older child. Set a time
limit if children are old enough to
go with their friends, and know
the names of the companions old
er children are with.
Review all appropriate trick-or
treat safety precautions, including
pedestrian/traffic safety rules.
Insist that youngsters are good
manners, are courteous, and say
“thank-you” for treats received.
To insure a safe and enjoyable
trick-or-treat outing, I urge
parents to: Give your children an
early meal or a rilling, nutritious
snack before they go Out, so they
will not be tempted to eat candy or
other treats before they get home.
Insist that treats be brought home
for inspection before anything is
eaten. Wash fruit and slice it into
small pieces. Report anything that
appears suspicious about treats to
the police, and when in doubt,
throw it out.
