Display some post-cards with pictures of witches on them and say, "We do not fear these witches because they don't live," but tell them of the true witches, lying, stealing, profanity, falsehood, anger, temper, etc., which are all witches that we should fear for they are real and seek to get into our hearts at all times. Explain the "new" meaning of the decoration you use for this special season, "the black and orange." Let the black stand for the night of sin, and the orange, the color of the rising sun, for the dawn of the day of truth and the coming of the light. Darken the room, and let a child from the rear with a lighted candle represent the light that God sends into our world of darkness. This is a simple but entertaining pastime. For the conclusion of the service have a peanut party. Hallowe'en is the season of nuts of all kinds. So the peanut can be used to the best advantage because it can be easily secured everywhere. Secure a number of peanuts and hide them in all parts of the room, explain this to the children, and at your command let them all start in to find them. The one finding the largest number should be given some simple little prize. Ask them to drop them all in a large bowl, then ask six children to shut their eyes, and reach in one hand and take out a handful, and the one having the number nearest to 25 will receive another simple little prize. Conclude by having a peanut auction. Prepare a number of parcels containing simple little things such as an apple, a stick of candy, an orange, a bunch of raisins, a lead-pencil, etc. Wrap these articles up in large bundles so the contents cannot be guessed by the shape. Ask some merry-hearted lad to be the auctioneer and sell the package to the highest bidder, payment to be made of course in peanuts, which at last you cast on the floor--asking the children to help themselves. If so desired serve peanut sandwiches as a special refreshment. =Election Day. November= (first Tuesday after first Monday) Read as the Scripture lesson Romans 13. This teaches the lesson that we are to be subject unto authority. Read also Matthew 22:15-22, which gives us a lesson of the "citizen's duty." Secure if possible a sample ballot. Display it before the children, and explain how the people of proper ages vote. After this, in the place of the names of the candidates and party write such words as Temperance, Good Citizenship, Good Schoolhouses, Full Churches, and Large Sunday Schools, and say we can all vote for all of these. Put down your cross mark under each name. Sing "America," salute the flag, and all say, "God Bless Our Native Land." Let us help to make it God's Great Land. =Armistice Day. November 11= For the Scripture lesson read about the time when wars shall cease, as you will find it mentioned in Psalms 46 and 47, and also in Isaiah 2:1-11, describing the time when nation shall not lift sword against nation.
