 Hotel Manager Speaks.
 Clifford D. Perkins, manager of the Heublein hotel in Hartford was intro duced to the speakers by Isaac Black. Mr. Perkins in opening his address congratulated New Britain and its leading citizens who are attempting to put a hotel proposition across in this city.
 MT. Perkins stated that the two two greatest assets for good hotel, outside of proper management are quality of food and cleanliness. In referring to the latter the Hartford hotel manager said that many people judge city by the hotel they put up at while remaining in the city.
 The speaker also admitted that within the past 10 or IS years many hotels have been erected in Connectt- cut and Massachusetts cities that have proved failures merely because they were not properly managed.
 Rotarians At Luncheon
 Part of the meeting was turned over to the New Britain Rotary club whose members gathered at the hotel head quarters with the campaign workers.
 George H. Dyson. in the absence of President Leon Sprague, announced that Stephen Robb, Harold Shepard and Delbert Perry have been appoint ed to a committee to discuss the ad- visibility of the Rotary club having a float in the parade on Armistice day.
 Next Sunday will be known as Ro- tary Sunday at the Methodist church and invitations have been extended to the Rotarians of many nearby cities to be present. Local Rotarians will gather in front of the Porter and Dy- son store at 9:15 o'clock in the morn ing and attend the services in a body.

OFFICIALLY DEAD;
 MEET ACCIDENTALLY
According to Records They Died of Wounds in France-They Hold
 Reunion.

Syracuse, Oct. 12.-Harry Davis of Canastota, who according to govern ment records died of wounds in France. and George Gephart, from Ohio killed in action, according to same records. buddies in the 14Sth Infantry, met by accident here yes terday and held reunion all their own.
 Davis saw familiar looking man. He looked like Gephart but Gephart, he remembered. was killed. The oth- CT man looked at Davis and flash of recognition came into his eyes.
 Davis, it appears, was wounded and in hospital. German aviators bombed the place and he was among the patients believed dead. It was only when burying party heard him groan that he was saved. By that time he had been listed as dead.
 Gephart had been left for dead on the battlfeld, but was picked up and found to be alive. He recovered in hospital. His wounds rendered him dumb.

MRS, HALL IS AGAIN
 BROUGHT INTO CASE
(Continued from First Page)

murder on September IA of the Rev Edward Wheeler Hall, rector of the Episcopal church of St. John the Evangelist, and his choir leader, Mrs. Eleanor R. Mills, sought today to identify a potato knife, found some distance from the spot where the slain bodies were discovered, and turned over to the local police yes terday. Detectives considered it pos sible that the knife was the one used in slashing Mrs Mills throat. There were spots on the blade which may have been caused by blood. An ap- alysis is to be made.
 Action All Secret.
 Investigators continued to cloak their actions with a screen of secrecy. Apparently the mystery was just as far from solution today as before the arrest of Clifford Hayes, a youth held on the statement by Raymond Schnei- der, who reported the finding of the bodies two days after the rector and Mrs. Mills disappeared. Schneider charges that Hayes shot the pair, thinking them Nicholas Banner and HIS ddus cal lp DotIl Ol " 1loiIl di v being held in jail Schneider also is under arrest as material witness.
 Possibility that Governor Edwards may send the state attorney general to New Brunswick to take charge of the inquiry was expressed here today Three separate agencies have been working on the case, and it was thought by some that a central au- thority might make greater headway.
 Separate Investigation.
 Indications today were that the state troopers had split with the other investigators and were pursuing a separate line in inquiry. Hints were given in some quarters that, suspect ing woman and two men, the troop CTS first were setting out to disprove the case against Hayes.

Continental Europe had, and has, Its
superstitions regarding lightning. In
some parts It Is believed that the bird
called cross-bill, kept in the house as
a pet, is sure preventive of destruc-
tion Of the house by lightning or fire.
1t is said that this power is granted
to the bird because 1t used its pecu-
llarly shaped bill, with the two man.
dibles curved and crossed over each
other, to extract the nails from the
wounds of Christ impaled on the cross.
