The above picture taken by the Herald man shows the team that is to represent the town
in the Grammar School league. That they will cop the honors in the second division seems al­
most certain for they are not only good sized lads, but hit the ball hard and are fast on their
feet. Then too they have the best all around pitcher in the league and he has won every game
he has twirled so far this year. Monday they won 14 to 0 and Wednesday they defeated Arle-

Of course Some of the teams entered in
the league are heavier than the local

At a meeting of toe Board of Directors

fair this year were definitely fixed for
October 2 5. So far as known these
dates will not conflict with those of any

A communication was read from the
