October is a time for ghosts, witches, cos- tumes and parties, and for thousands of child- ren across Canada, an opportunity to help other children around the world through UNICEF' s Hallowe'en fundraising campaign. Canadian support of UNICEF at Hallowe'en is the highest in the world, and this year thousands of Canadian children will be out once again Trick-or-Treating for UNICEF. Because UNICEF is concerned with your child's safety, this year you will see Trick- or-Treaters wearing the new UNICEF Hal- lowe'en "'vest", design- ed to be worn over a Hallowe'en costume. Provided by Sears at no cost to UNICEF, the "'vest" is made of clear plastic and is trimmed with the retro-reflective material, Scotchlite, which has been especial- ly designed to reflect light and is considered the best material for visibility after dark. In order to make this Hallowe'en safe and fun for everyone, UNICEF's Safety Rules are provided as a public service by UNICEF Ca- nada and your provin- cial UNIEF Committee. The Safety Rules are: (1) Never trick-or- treat alone. Go with a friend or in a group. Adults should accom- pany young children. (2) Parents should set a curfew and bounda- ries within familiar neighbourhoods. (3) Youngsters should be advised against en- tering the house or apartment of a stran- er. (4) Children should show parents treats when they arrive home - especially unwrapped candies and fruits. (5) Avoid trick-or- treating late at night. Wear light coloured, flame-resistant cost- umes and carry a flash- light. (6) Wear the new UNIECF Hallowe'en "'vest" over your cos- tume so that you can be seen easily. w) THE FORT WILLIAM MALE CHOIR Conductor - Kendall H.
