Waterbury, none will deny that q

TOT Tue removal vi SG MdTH6EcUS HULL
Waterbury, none will deny that q
branch school may be established with.
in the next few years. II this should
be done it is admitted that part OF the
faculty of St Margaret's might go to
the new institut ion and thus deal 9
flow to the local school that would
prove q hard one to Withstand. st
Margarets is the only school for girls
under the control of the convention OF
the Episcopal diocese of Cnpnecticut
There Isl demand at the present time
for girls schools either totally in the
country or totally in the city, and
many are OF the opinion that the es-
ia blishment of school in Middlebury
would take away much of the prestige
OF the Waterbury institution.
st Margaret's will not be removed
from Waterbury,. That point is GER
tain. Whether another school Is to be
established near here that will seek to
take the prestige Of the present Wa
terbnry school is uncertain. II such
proposition is being considered by the
trustees OF St Margaret's school 1t
cannot be carried to conclusion with
out the vote of the convention OF the
diocese of Connecticut. The next con-
vention of the diocese will be held at
Hartford In June, 1907, and according
to the best authority nothing could be
done toward the removal Of st Mar
garet's before that time.
On the other hand, If q member OF
the faculty of the local school sees an
opportunity to found a select school in
Middlebury and make it one of the ex-
elusive kind that pays and pays well,
there is nothing to prevent her resig-
nation to take up the work.
St Margaret's has established an en-
viable reputation as select boarding
school for girls. There are 60 board
ing students and upwards OF 80 day
students at the school. The board Of
trustees is com posed of the following
prominent men:
The Right Rev Chauncey B. Brews-
ter, D. D., Hartford, president ex Of
ficio; Rev John N. Lewis, Jr., Water
town, vice-president ex Oficio; Rev
Francis T. Russell, D. D rector, Wa
terbury: Rev James II. George, New
town.; Charles M. Reach, West Hart.
ford; James S. Elton, Waterbury,;
Frederick J. Kipesbury, L. L. D., Wa
terbury; Nelson J. Welton, treasurer.
Waterbury; Frederick S. Chase, secre-
tary, Waterbury; Edward L. Frishee,
Waterbury; John P. Kellogg, Water
bury.
The principal, Miss Mary R. Hillard,
is the guiding spirit of the school.
Her resignation or decision to leave
St Margaret's would prove severe
blow to the schools prospects accord
ing to the opinions Of many Waterbury
people.

Newtown graduates OF st Margaret's
school In Waterbury will be interested
in the r0mOr of the proposed establish
ment of an independent school for
girls, or q branch of st Margaret's
school, at Middlebury Center. Rev J.
II. George, rector OF Trinity church, is
a trustee of this school. When in
Middlebury few weeks ago the editor
learned 1t was matter of common re-
port that J. II. WhittemOre had Sc.
cured options on q tract of land north
of Middlebury Green, on which is now
located the Basham blacksmith shop,
store of A. w Bissell and a residence,
for the alleged purpose Of erecting
q girls school. The proposed site over
looks the city of Waterbury, the land
rising toward the south. The GANG
place, just south of the proposed site,
is quite little higher elevation than
the site selected.
Tuesdays Waterbury Republican
says: Nothing was done concerning
the proposed establishment of an Epis
copal school for girls in Middlebury at
the meeting of the board OF trustees OF
st Margaret's school, Monday. Every
corning the project, Monday night, re-
suited In failure. "Miss Hillard is to
prepare statement" was the invari-
able answer from every trustee ap.
preached.
Miss Mary r. Hillard, when seen by
reporter at the school, said:
''There is absolutely nothing to give
cut concerning the matter. The pro-
pOsal to establish branch school is
just as unsettled as it was before the
meeting of the trustees. No conclusion
was reached and the matter stands
just the same as it did before the meet
ing. Nothing more will be known un-
til after the trustees meet again. The
next meeting will take place in three
or four months"
"Has the board received any offer of
funds from j. H. Whittemore of Nau-
vatuck?" Miss Hillard was asked.
NO." was the reply, "there is MOTH
ing in that rumor. The fact of the
matter is that Mr. Whittemore was
simply consulted IN the matter, as a
man who was in position to furnish
certain information. The rest is moth
ing but newspaper talk. But I will
have to decline to discuss the matter.
MY position does not allow me to do
So"
In spite of the fact that prominent
Episcopal1ans of the city are positive
that there is not movement on foot

seems good, especially to the Masons
themselves, to have q more secure and

Schnapps Tobacco is Made ENTIRELY from Flue Cured Tobacco Grown in the Piedmont Country. The Imitation Brands Have Schnapps Quality Only On the Outside
 Of the Plug

claimed to be "just as good as Schnapps, but there is only one gen. uine Schnapps. Be sure the letters on the tag, and stamped on the plug under the tag spell S-C-H-N-A-P-P-S and then you have it the most wholesome tobacco produced, with just enough sweetening to preserve the mild, juicy, stimulating quality of the leaf tobacco. Expert tests prove that this fue cured tobacco, grown in the famous Piedmont region, re- quires and takes less sWeetening than any other and has wholesome, stimulating, satisfying effect on chewers.
 If the tobacco you are chewing don't satisfy you more than the mere habit of expectorating, stop fooling yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco. Schnapps is like the tobacco chewers formerly bought costing from 75c. to $I.oo- per pound; Schnapps is sold at soc. per pound, in SC. cuts, strictly roc. and I5c. plugs.
The Brinkley argus., 1906-11-09

Hundreds of imitation brands are on sale that look like Schnapps to- bacco. The outside of the imitation plugs oftobacco is fue cured the same as Schnapps, but the inside is filled with cheap, flimsy, heavily sweetened air cured tobacco. One chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger longer than two chews of such to- bacco. The color, size and shape of the tags, plugs and packages of certain imitation brands of tobacco have been made so much like Schnapps that they have often been accepted by buyers under the belief that they were getting Schnapps. Sufficient proof has been secured to establish the fact that certain brands are infringements and in vio- lation of the trade mark laws, yet the trade will continue to be imposed upon by these infringers until the suit already entered and now pending to protect Schnapps is decided A great many of these limitations are
