Halloween 'was no night for the week-he artcd as these two tricks-of-treaters will testify. The accent this year seem ed to be on the grotesque, perhaps inspired by the creature from the black lagoon. Violinist Rubinoff Believes The Show Musi Go On!' In show business or the mus ical profession, it is legend that "the show must go on" regard less of anything else. Each year Rubinoff and his Violin travels thousands of miles to meet scheduled appearances in concert. Rubinoff will appear here Monday, Nov. 7, at 8:15 p.m. at the High School Auditorium. But, sometimes meeting sch edules is almost an impossiblity. Unusual experiences are incur red and even humorous situa tions develop. Seeing the genial, relaxed violinist on the stage and seeming to enjoy himself as much as his audience, it's diffi cult to realize the adventurous i:4 Come H V iX ptli Wm ti mq PK SALE ; ., ' i situations which develop in trav eling. Once on The Tamiaml Trail down the west coast of Flori da, Rubinoff and his party left late at night for Miami net real izing the superstition of the In dians for staying inside at night caused all the gasoline stations to close soon after dusk. With every station closed and the tank registering empty, it began to lock as if the night would be spent in the car and just wait for morning. Just at that minute a darken ed station loomed up on the side of the road. Two huge dogs bark ed so furiously that it didn't look safe to get out of the car.

Mr. and Mrs. Cliff Fcntiman of Rock Port, Mo. were callers at the Ray Fentiman home last week. Rubinoff did the next best thing he yelled at the top of his voice "This is Rubinoff we're out of gas! ! " A light appeared and the re luctant owner finally came out, but only after Rubinoff showed his violin and proved his identi fication. And so once again the schedule was kept on time with no delay. Blow-outs, blizzards, road de tours, cancellation of plane fli ghts due to weather, sudden floods making impassable ob structions, fogs, sand storms, icy roads, have all been encountered by Rubinoff on his touring of the nation. But luck seems to al ways be in his favcr. So far not one engagement has been missed and it is a rarity for him to be fifteen minutes late even on his early morning arrivals for his favorite hobby of appearing in free school assem blies in every city he visits. He has hitch-hiked with good Samaritans of the road, been pulled out of snow banks, land ed blind in a sand storm in an army plane and countless other experiences, but THE SHOW DID GO ON! ! !

Letter Thanks Jayt cees tor r Teenage Party Dear Editor: I wisli to thank the Jaycees and all those responsible for the Halloween dance that was given for the teenagers Monday night. I for one enjoyed it very much and wish there were more like this sponsored for us from time, to time. I realize also that some of the caper's pulled by a few will prob ably hurt our chance's for ano ther one next year. But, I want ed the Jaycee's to know and all who were responsible for the .party, some of us appreciated it, and sincirely hope that all of us who did enjoy it, won't be let down next year for a few of other's misdeeds.

There have been quarrels, friction and dis agreements. I do not blame any one member of the board for this, but surcfy the Commissioners from District 2 and 3 would be more apt to co-operate with a newly elected Commissioner. If I am elected I will take a definite stand on any issue that will benefit the majority of the people. Any decision that I make wiil be open for public information. I am a native of Cass County, land owner and taxpayer. I believe we should receive 100 value for every tax dollar. I promise you that if I am elected I will en courage elimination of waste and extravagant spend ing of the taxpayers' hard earned dollar. If you think I would do a good job for you as your representative I would appreciate your vote and support at the election on November 8. HAROLD GRECC 0 MP 3 8 W PLAINLY MARKED m nBP.ii Mtr.
