What need Halloween?

I can’t remember when I first went ‘trick or treating.’  I must had gone with my older siblings at about age 5 or 6.  But when I was in second grade, my mom bought me a clown costume from Woolworth’s.  I wore it to school in the second grade where we had a Halloween party and ate lots of candy corn.  When I came home from that party I discovered my friend Donnie three doors down from me had the same costume as I had.  However, his tied down the back and my clown costume tied up the front.  A few years later And in retrospect I discovered I had worn my costume backwards.  Probably should read the instructions first next time.
None the less, after a few more years of trick or treating and after my family moved to our new house on Sixth Street in 1954 I had never gone Halloweening again.  Since finishing the fourth grade and that house move, I do not recall ever again trick or treating.  Not sure why.  Probably because I had no friends in our new neighborhood.  And again, no friends because I didn’t go to Catholic school where all the neighbor kids went.
So, I just ate the left-over candy my mom was handing out.  Which by the way was not all that great.  It probably was just candy corn.
