his position as superintendent of the
Central wooden mill, to take effect in
about two weeks, and has accepted the
position of agent of the Collinsville
Lowell mill, owned by the American
Wooden company. This mill is 39s
set mill and will give a larger scope
for Mr.. Suenderhauf's ability. In
addition to being an expert mapQfao-
tuFer Mr.. SueAderhaaf is-a valuable
citizen. He is a member of the
school board and has always shown an
active interest in the welfare of the
town. He has been with the Central
company nearly IA years. Mr.. Suen-
derhauf will not remove his family to
his new field for the present.
The following is from the Sunday Re-
publican, In regard to Miss Lucllla Stan
ley Cady, whose resignation was filed
with the school committee at the meet
ing on Monday:
Miss Cady has rounded out a period of
40 consecutive years of success ul work
at the head of the primary schools. She
came TO Stafford Springs In 1865, and was
placed In charge OF the primary school In
the East district, the Springs then having
two districts separate and distinct within
It's borders, and began her labors In the
brick building now occupied by the Beck
with card company. She remained In the
same room until the consolidation of the
two Springs districts into one and the
completion of the present school building
on High street In 1888 Eighteen years
In one room Is rather more than the av-
eIags time of teachers of the present day,
but that was followed by % years In the
room she w leaves for good. While In
the east district Miss Cady saw tt school
grow until every seat was occupied and
the wall seats crowded. Some Of the
present active business men of the town,
and others of Iote elsew 9ere, received
their first helps along the way from Miss
Cady, while many Of them have had their
ehildreI guided by the same band that so
deity pushed their father or mother on
the road to learning. There are a few
instances where Miss Cady has had the
care of the grandehild Of one she taught
when first In town. Many suchinstances
would have Oecurrt had not so many of
her caller pupils left town to make their
homes elsewhere. Miss Cady has seen
many changes in the Springs during the
forty years her hand and mind have been
directing the lit ones upward and on
ward In the battle of life. The whole ma
ture of the place has changed, socially
and materially, and more than the entire
population of the, Springs have passed
away during the period of her labors.
Whole streets have changed, Inhabitants;
and the personnel of her school have be
come entirely different. Nearly all Eu-
rope and some parts of Asia have laid
their little ones before her and called
upon her to enllghten their minds, shape
their progress and loosen their tongues.
Miss Ca1y has kept step with the times
and up date In all her methods, striv
Ing constantly to reach her high ideals In
teaching, and ever ready to welcome
every advanced method of value A few
years ago Threatened Illness caused Miss
Cady to consider seriously the matter of
terminating her career In school work,
but good and sp edy recovery, coupled
