Services were conducted by Rev. Dr, Abel Ahlquist and burial was in Falrview cemetery. He said the local budget may be small, but it 1s used as effectively as. that of any Scout body in the country. John L. Davis Speaks Leon A. Sprague, treasurer of the local council and president of the Rotary club, spoke of Rotary's atti- trude toward scouting, “No one cares more for the boys®of New Britain than the Rotary club,” he sald. “The boys and their work are first in the hearts of the men of the New Brit- ain Rotary club.” Rev. John L. Davis was introduced as the leader of the world's second largest Bible class. He spoke . on scouting and said the voting out of the liquor traffic recently was done by boys who were trained to better citizenship years ago and he sees a better future for America because of the training the Boy Scouts are getting now. The principle of doing a good turn daily he sald would help to, revolutionize factory and business life. He spoke of the moral training the boys are gotting and sald every min- ister of every religious denomination considers the Boy Scout movement a valuable ally of the church. R. B. Skinner, intfoduced as presi- dent of the second largest Bible class in the world and vice-president of the local Scout couneil, spoke on what splendid citizens in years to come, the Boy Seolits of today wiil be. B, L. Warren, another vice-president, said “The Seout movement will redound to the welfare of the nation.” “The vulnerable point in America’s progress today is her ¢itizenship train- ing,” ‘according to Mr. Wyland. Mr. Wyland did not seém to think Amer- jcan citizenship had been trained in the best manner in times past, and said but.a lmited .amount . oL good can be accomplished "among adults who are fixed -in their outlook on life. “The one thing to do is to train a different type of citizen than the average citizen of years ago,” he said. “H, G, Wells says America has the geed of permanency, but even Amer- jca does not have an agreement sign- ed by Gold Almighty that her flag will float for 1,000 years. The Boy Scout of today will help bring that permanently of the future.” The speaker showed how the United States, representing one twentieth of the population of the world, produces one half the world's goods and add- ed, “With all her skill; with the most favorable government the world has ever known; which attracts the pop- ulation of the world to her shores in gearch of economic opportunity; with all her achievements, has almost broken down when it comes to do- mestic relations. Our American in- dividualism has almost come to the point of anarchy and we are in grave danger of becoming a nation without a soul.” He told about the development of the school, the growth of the health and sanitation theories and referred to the tendency in times past to leave the moral training to the Sunday school teacher. “The future . educa- tional system must put fits primal eftort on' moral and service tralnin {deals,” he said. ' " Berry Speaker Also, R. N. Berry, of Boston, regional Scout director for New England, spoke of the need for enlarging Scout work §0 as to include all boys and enjoined Bcout leaders to live up to their ideals. A conference with Messrs Wyland and Berry on Scout problems was held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms this afternoon. h WILL MEET IN SECRET “Reorganizers” of Democratic Party Decide They Do Not Want News- papermeén At Next Session. Because a Herald reporter, unan- nounced, uninvited and decidedly un- welcome, attended the first meeting of the democratic interests who are attempting a “reorganisation” of the party, last week at K. of C. hall and as a result of said reporter's presence, it was found unwise to bring up ‘‘cer- tain matters,” the leaders asserted to- day that the next meeting will be a secret one. The scribe was reminded that the meeting hall is two flights up from the stret level. The meeting is the one at which the -democratio stown committee “and certain men who are democrats in name only” came in for vigorous at- tacks. The meeting was presided over by Assessor Edward A. McCarthy and every one of the 16 men In attend- ance made a speech. That the pre- siding ofticer and the speeches were not the ones scheduled are the ad- migsions of some of those who laid the plans for the meeting, though they refuse to state who was to pre- side and what were to be the toplcs for discussion. It was stated ofticially this morning that a meeting scheduled for tonight will not be held.

Never- theless he has escaped recognition al- though several other people have been picked for him by prize seekers. In- cluded in the list were several sales- men visiting New Britain who were amazed at the curlous stares that greeted them as they went about their rounds of the stores. Harold D, Smith of New Haven, representing an advertising firm, was a visitor in New Britain today. He resembles to some extent the pub- lished views of the masquerader. When he boarded the New Britain bound dinky this morning, he later told a “Herald” man, he was sur- iprised at the attentlon he seemed to be receiving.

Hart, that R all probability he will tender his signation to the police commission at tonight's meeting. Accarding to Nezdropa he has bought out a busi- neks on Winter street. ingly the cynosure of all eyes. Smiles and nods of rocognition came his way land he had about reached the con- clusion that New Britain was one of the most friendly cities in the uni- verse when he was accosted on Main street by a young man who thought he recognized him as the masquer- ader. Other visitors were similarly greeted. Everyone still has a chance to rec- ognize the masquerader and win the prize. The only condition is that thg, person making the identification must[ have a copy of Monday or Tuesday's Herald in his possession and must greet ‘him by saying, “You are the Herald masquerader.” ‘While the masquerader strolls/ about Main street, goes into stores and public places, he acts like any ordin- ary individual would in his daily cus- toms. Look for him everywhere. You may find him in any one of the stores, | on the streets, perhaps driving a coal wagon or some other vehicle. He may be attired in almost any kind of a garb. He may be a stanger or a well known resident. In fact no'man is above suspicion. Suspect everyone until he proves he is not the masquerader. If you find the right man and greet bim properly there is $25 waiting for you at the Herald office. The man must be caught before 8 o'clock to- morrow night, the closing time of the search. Today the “Heraid” submits an- other picture. Look it over careful- ly. It may give you a hint. Remem- ber all pictures published are actual photograrhs of the masquerader.
