Wednesday the Juniors crossed bats with Libertyville at the Lake county fair grounds in one of the best games the Juniors have played this season.

This game decided which team is to play Friday with the Grayslake for the prize given by the fair association. The score was 8 to 4 in favor of Wauconda.
The ball game Sunday between the Juniors and married men was one of the most interesting games this season and resulted in a score of 12 to 0, in favor of the Juniors. Bruncheon and King was the battery for married men and the entire infield was well filled. The fielders got every ball that went their way, after it stopped rolling. It was certainly a great ga,e and the next one will deserve advertising.
Our school opened Monday with an entire new set of instructors. The principal, Mr. Fuller, the new instructor selected by the board of directors comes highly recommended and will, no doubt, prove a very able instructor. Miss Estella Grace has charge of the intermediate room this year, having taught the primary for the past four year, and is a very capable instructor. Miss Ethel Duers conducts the primary room and, although this is her first term of teaching, we predict her the best of success, being a young lady with a kindly disposition toward the little ones and having fitted herself thoroughly at the Dixon normal school for the position of a teacher.
