1S12  Trimly School reorganized as the United Slates settled into its
                                          existence as an  independent  nation.




















                                 During  the  period  of  the  War  of  1812,  the  newly  reorganized
                               First  Protestant  Episcopal  Charity  School  in  the  City of  New  York
                               adopted  the  methods  of  Madison  Avenue.  Handbills  like  the  one
                               reproduced  on  the  opposite  page  were  distributed  to  those  interested
                               in  the  School.  Whether  the  modern  Trinity  scholar  would  be  more
                               pleased  to  have  his  own  picture or one  of  the  familiar  hymns  which
                               he  sings  in  chapel  published  in  the  School  catalogue  is  not  difficult
                               to  say.  One  can  be  sure,  however,  that  the  rigorous  educational
                               program  outlined  opposite  would  make  the  scholar  of  1959  cringe.
