What do you think will happen on Halloween night?
Costumes and decorations will be a sight!

The Temple Teens announce their first dance of the year, “Jukebox Jive,” on November 7, at the Temple House. Don’t miss it.
Not having a “spoo-oo-kin” suspicion what was going on was Fagie Krasner as she walked into her home and was surprised with finding many of her friends all set to celebrate her 16th birthday. A delicious dinner and lots of fun and dancing completed the evening. Happy Birthday!
Judy Smollar had many of her friends help her celebrate her 16th birthday. Many more happy birthdays, Judy.
“Mums” the word was heard among the guests as it was almost time to surprise Shirley Kaufman on her 15th birthday. Fun and more fun was had as the evening went by with dancing and refreshments.
Yum, yum and lots of fun was heard from all the kids as they helped Johnmny Ruden welcome in his 7th birthday. And what could make a party even better?—why a Hop-a-long Cassidy cake, of course. Happy birthday, Johnny.
Do you know that Danny Schafer holds the office of President of C.S.F., and Eddie Naiman is managing the Hoover High School football team.
Congrats are in order and lots a’luck.
Halloween is just next door!
Hope you have lots of fun in store.
