and mods OF recognition came his way
and 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 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 the
person making the Identification mus
have copy OF Monday or Tuesdays
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-
airy individual would in his daily GUS
toms. Look for him everywhere. You
may find him in any one of the stores,
on the streets, perhaps driving coal
wagon or some other vehicle. He
may be attired in almost any
kind OF garD. he may De
stranger 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
him properly there is $25 waiting for
you at the Herald office. The man
must be caught before s o'clock to-
morrow night, the closing time of the
search.

other picture. Look it over CAREFUL

While Thousands OF eyes have for
more than twenty-four hours have
been carefully scrutinizing the faces
and contours of every passerby who
might by chance be the Herald Mas
querader," that much-sought for in
dividual was uncaptured at press time
today and the s25 prize offered by the
Herald" to the first person who
properly identifies him still awaits a
claimant. Hundreds Of people carried
a copy of yeterday's Herald" with
them in the hope that they might rec
.ognize the masquerader and greeting
him with the challenge, You are the
Herald Masquerader,' win the coveu-
ed award.
The Masquerader has made no eff
fort to keep in hiding since last Sun
day, has gone about the center Of
the city at will and has tried in no
way to conceal his identity. 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 curious 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 Herald" man, he was sur
prised at the attention he seemed to
be receiving. Leaving the train at

was burned by the British in

was told 1t was a girl.
Certain changes In the hospital
record and remarks made after the
,hild's birth have made Mrs. Rich
eel she has good grounds for refus-
'ng to accept "Edwina y" as her
1wn. This is not q case where love
s lacking, but Mrs. Rich wants to
he sure she Is caring for her own
child and not the nameless offspring
of parents who seek u evade respon.
sibility.
In the Stillman case it was sail
many times that Mrs. Stillman, like
any mother, would be the only one
20 know who was the father or her
child. Mothers alone know their
"hildren, the wise ones said. and
Gathers must accept the children
", trust. But 1t seems II Mrs. Rich
shouldNbe justified In her fears that
a woman who becomes a mother In
a hospital may not know her own
"hild. 1t is quite likely that II Mrs.
Rich should have another child It
will be born within the walls OF
the Rich home.
Child Now Must Pay.
Children's rights should be def
nftely established. and once decided
upon these rights should be pro-
tected. Most courts rule that
child born to married woman Is
he child of her husband. Th's de-
cision does not satisfy Mr.. StilIman,
and he seems willing ITO go biokc

self. The Tternans will separate. 1t
Is expected. The Richs are held

Willingness to stand by wife he
