Buttons" Back in Hotel
 But Is Not Recognized
Buttons" is back.

 The funny part of 1t Is that no- body knew him.
 Buttons" will be remembered by readers of the Herald as the boy who attracted considerable attention when the Burritt hotel was opened. He was the first and only page boy and his uniform, covered with brass buttons, suggested the name.
 He was youngster, short, fat and of a personality that appealed to everyone. His real name, Conrad Lindelof, few knew until, under the tutelage of Manager Elias Baker and Zone Manager Lewis O. Tirrell he became the American Hotels candidate for the boy mayor of New York.
 He was feted by the hotel man. agement in New York at the Roose- welt, in Philadelphia st the Ben Franklin, in Washington and Atlan- tic City. Later he dropped out Of sight. and for a long time was not heard of.
 Recently patrons of the Burritt hotel have noticed young man WI seemed vaguely familiar, wear ing a Tell hop uniform. Ioday somebody discovered it was But tons" grown up and changed so that even his friends did not know him.

AVOWS BOYS MUST
 BE KEPT ACTIVE
If Not Trained Properly They May Be Destructive

Most people have the wrong at titude toward boys. according to a statement made today to the New Britain Rotary club by Frank w. Barbour Of Middletown, secretary of the Middletown Rotary club and state director of Junior Achieve ment.
 There Is something wrong with men who expect boys to keep still Mir. Barbour told the Rotarians adding that this attempt to make takes Of modern educational sys- tens.
 He pointed out that boys who are well are active and that their activities to be productive of good must be directed into the proper channels. If you don't teach a boy to make something, he's going to break something" he stated, ey- planning that boys are sure to play with tools and their efforts unless ulueu DS SollcOho e'lO NNiS AihN's to be destructive.
 He said boys want more than simply play, they want to do some thing worth while. They don't want to be told to do something just be- cause someone tells them to, they want to know why.
 He explained how 1t Is natural for girls to like dolls and to learn to make clothes to dress them. From this point 1t is only a step to where the girl makes her own clothing. He said the situation is different with boys. Boys are al- ways looking ahead and trying to do what their older brothers are doing 'The world is progressing because boys want to do things ahead of their age. The most inn portant step in the proper training of boys is to make them believe in themselves" he added.
 Members of the high school foot ball team were present as guests of the club.
 It was voted to purchase 50 seats for the Lions frolic on the evening of January II, which will be known as Rotary Night
 Christmas toys contributed by the members were sent to the Children's Home.
