...lemon soap. Guests can also expect good New England cooking in the dining room (lobster pie, clam chowder, homemade bread, Indian pudding) and special celebrations on Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Mardi Gras, and the twelve days of Christmas, when several Treadways feature a boar's head, suckling pig and medieval carolers. Yet Treadway, where it counts, is very much up-to-date: the ten-story Treadway Inn at Niagara Falls (see MODERN LIVING) is an all-electric motel in which desk clerks manipulate individual room temperatures to suit guests as they check...

The film barely suggests the identification of the devil with a boar's head--the Lord of the Flies.
