Halloween is celebrated on October 31st in Canada. Halloween is a favorite family celebration-a time for traditions such as dressing in costumes, trick-or-treating around the neighbourhood, and carving pumpkins. Children dress up in funny or scary costumes and go "trick or treating, "and neighbours are expected to respond by giving them small treats. Adults may also dress in costume for Halloween parties. Halloween(the evening before All Saints or All Hallows Day) is a secular celebration based on ancient Druid customs dating back to 700 B. C. The Druids, a Celtic religious order in ancient Britain, Ireland and France, believed that the souls of the dead returned to mingle with the living on "hallowed eve, "October 31. Each year on that night, the Druids would make bonfires and offer sacrifices of crops and animals, and individuals would dress in costumes to disguise themselves from these spirits.  1, record 2, English, - Halloween

Halloween est l'héritière de la fête de «Samhain», célébrée il y a plus de 2 500 ans chez les Celtes et les Gaulois. Cette fête était la plus importante de leurs fêtes. Dans le monde celte, la nuit du 31 octobre au 1er novembre était le début de la nouvelle année. C'était la fête de la divinité celtique Samhain. Elle était marquée par tout un cérémonial. Pendant cette nuit les esprits des trépassés pouvaient revenir dans leur demeure terrestre et les vivants devaient les accueillir. Mais l'ouverture des portes de l'autre monde permettait aussi l'intrusion d'esprits maléfiques. Les esprits des morts de l'année devaient partir dans l'autre monde.  3, record 2, French, - Halloween

In Lost in Yonkers Neil Simon has found himself. For all their popularity, his recent "autobiographical" trilogy-"Brighton Beach Memoirs", "Biloxi Blues", "Broadway Bound"-didn’t succeed in stitching Simon the Funny and Simon the Serious into a new creature, Simon the Pure. Too often he was dishing out one from column A and one from column B : have a laugh, have a tear. In his 27th play laughter and tears have come together in a new emotional truth. There are moments in this play when you experience a new kind of laughter for Simon, a silent laughter that doesn’t explode into a yuk but implodes straight into your heart.  1, record 10, English, - yuk
