Howe once again had a healthy drive, but turned the ball over on downs after losing their starting quarterback. The 7-play drive ended on a turnover on downs Lone Oak fared no better by ending the half after five plays Howe's defense once again was the bright spot for the Dogs as Defensive Coordinator Mike Segleski was rewarded with outstanding effort, especially from sophomores Jackson Adkins and Jordan Jones.

The second half opened in the opposite direction Howe intended as the Buffaloes drove four plays and 60 yards for an opening score by Williams on a 6-yard keeper Lone Oak held a 12-6 lead with 10:50 remaining in the third

The Dog defense kept battling forced a punt which gave the offense another chance for life. Great runs by Joseph Brennan and Caiden Harmon kept the drive alive for Riggs to score a

Continued from page 2 touchdown around the left edge, but a holding penalty brought it back However, the very next play saw speedster Spencer Akins carry for 17 yards to the one yard line where it appeared he would be stopped short of the goal line But the officials didn't blow the whistle and the sophomore guard Jackson Adkins drove the entire pile through the end zone for the score Howe trailed 20-12 with 4:30 remaining in the game and thanks to the Segleski-led defense, Howe once again forced a punt giving Howe one more shot with 2:47 remaining in the game

Krantz, who had moved to fulltime shotgun to overcome the cadence issues handed to Brennan, Riggs, and Harmon before facing a fourth and one with only seconds remaining and no timeouts Howe called a pass over the middle which fell incomplete Lone Oak took a knee to end the game and life for the hopes of midNovember football for the Bulldogs

about your antiques and with Georgia Caraway

When Christianity swept over Britain and Europe, many pagan celebrations were turned into Christian observances.

Pope Boniface IV created All Saints Day in May of 610 AD to remember early

835 AD the November also and the Eve or October 31

Halloween.

When England began founding colonies in America, colonists brought their holiday customs with them. Puritan New England banned Halloween whereas the middle colonies, such as New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, preserved their Halloween traditions.

The custom of hollowing out and carving turnips with demon faces and lighting a candle inside is a Celt tradition. Immigrants to America found few turnips, but plentiful pumpkins, in their new land. The “Jack o’lantern” takes its name from an Irish folktale of a sinner named Jack who was condemned by the Devil to carry a coal in a hollowed-out turnip until Judgment Day.

Look for clues to determine if a jack-o-lantern is German or American. The German jacks from 1900-1930s are generally smaller, made of composition or cardboard, with cutouts for eyes, nose, and mouth with inserts, and have attached cardboard bottoms. Early American-made jack-o-lanterns from the 1940s and 1950s were made of pulp/papier mache and are worth about $100-150. American jacks are larger, made of “egg-carton” material, with cutouts for eyes and mouth with paper inserts, and the bottom and body are one piece. Jack-olanterns are valued by size and condition. The following are for perfect containers with perfect inserts. American: 4” $95, 5” $145, 6” $185, and 7” $225; German compo 4” $275, 5” $350, molded 3” $110, and 6” $275. One book listed an exquisite German 1908-1912 papier-mache pumpkin lantern with compo wash, perfect original paper inserts 4.5” at $5,000!

Now that is scary terrific! Come to Howe Mercantile this week to stock up on Halloween and Fall decorations. And celebrate Howe-lloween from noon until 9:00 on October 27 for our special Fall market inside Cottonwood Creek Pavilion behind the Mercantile. We will have treats and maybe some tricks.

Dr. Georgia Caraway, former director of the Denton County Museums, and her friends operate the Howe Mercantile at 107-109 East Haning. Store hours are Thursday through Saturday 12 noon until 8 p.m. All five of Georgia’s Denton history books and one book on taking care of your antiques and collectibles are available at Howe Mercantile. She hopes her next book will be the history of Howe. SHOP LOCAL. We can show you Howe!
