He received his early education in the First dis- trict schools on Windham street and moved with his parents to° New Bri- tain, where he completed his prepara- tion for college, graduating from the New Britain High school with the class of 1896. In the fall he entered Dart- mouth college, Hanover, N. H., and was graduated from that institution with the class of 1906. Mr. Snow worked his own way through high schbol and college, but found time to participate actively in athleties and politics, at Darimouth captaining the first team that ever represented the institution. He was a member of the college track team and played on his class baseball nime. In his sopho- more year at college he was president of his class. During the presideatial campaisn of 1896 Mr. Snow assisted other demo- cratic collage mem in various New Hampshire and Vermont towns in conducting democratic rallies.
