I'ialloWe'en. WO things essential to the successful evening celebration of a gala day at Wells are fancy costumes and refreshments. These are the only limitations placed upon a committee of arrangements, and these requirements are, perhaps, felt rather than stated. However, whether felt, stated or inherited from by-gone generations of Wells committees, f4The Collegiate As- sociationl, is sure to hear when the report of one of these afo1'e mentioned committees is given before that eager assembly, that : Hit has been decided that we all dress to represent some one be- sides ourselves, and that refreshments will be served in the course of the eveningf' Now with such a prestige to preserve and still to be original is the problem which confronts the chosen few who are forced to be the fountain source of new ideas, and when the event really takes place must be Hmaids of all work.
