1969 TERRACE BAY NEWS OCTOBER 30 HALLOWE'EN HAZARDS Hallowe'en is the biggest night out of the year toi many small children. The Canada Safety Councils says there are steps parents should take to ensure the safety of young witches, pirates, princesses, ghosts, astronauts and highwaymen. "First of all, the children should be able to see and be seen by other", Gay McLaren, General Man- ager of the Council's Public Safety Section said in a pre-holiday message . He advised against the wearing of masks with slits so narrow the children can't see properly out of them. Instead, makeup masks over a cold cream base for ease of removal are recommended . The costumes should be light-colored to make it easier for motorists to see the Trick or Treaters. Much better would be the addition of reflectorized tape or material to the clothing in order to make the children a great deal more visible, Mr. McLaren said. Many falls can be prevented by outfitting the young sters in costumes short enough so that they won't trip over the hems. Parents can further help over- come this hazard by making sure their porch lights are THINKING OF BUYING A PIANO? SEE - MR. A.
