SCHOOL MEETING
SATURDAY EVENING.
Half Of Membership p Of Board Of
Education to Be Selected
At This Time.

Next Saturday occurs the annual
school meeting Of the City school dis
trict. One-half of the Board of Edu-
cation (three members) is to be elect
ed. The official notice is given else
where in this issue. Men and women
generally should take sufficient inter-
est in the welfare of their public
schools to come out for a short time
in the evening once a year and par
ticipate in the annual meeting. The
Board of Education does not think
that this is an Opportune time to ask
for more buildings which are needed,
but it will likely ask for an appropria-
tion to make necessary improvements
on the buildings we do have. The
Lincoln and Garfield buildings require
sanitation, which will be somewhat
expensive to install because no pro-
vision was made for same when the
buildings were erected. The number
of items of minor repairs, renovation
and improvements required in the six
buildings each year make no small
amount in the aggregate.
The matter of more school room
will no doubt come up later when the
new members to be elected will re-
fleet the wishes of their constituents
in the Board. With normal increase
of about fifty pupils annually this
question will have to be solved soon.
The election, therefore, of half the
members of the Board, practically a
controlling contingent, is an impor-
tant matter and should receive the
careful attention of the voters of the
district.

HERE TOMORROW
Another Evening Game This Week.
To Cokato on Sunday With
Special Train.

Another evening game of base bail
will be played this week when the
Willmar and Kerkhoven teams will
clash at the local ball park. The
game will be played tomorrow
(Thursday) evening and will be call
ed at $3.50 sharp.
Kerkhoven has one of the fastest
teams in this section of the state and
played a sensational game with Co.
kato on the fourth of July, losing in
the tenth inning on some poor UNI
piring. Either Billy Williams or Roy
Christian will throw for Willmar,
while Buck may twirl for an inning
or two and get his arm in shape for
the big game Sunday.
Admission to the Kerkhoven game
will be the same as last week, twenty
five cents, and ladies will be admitted
free.
On Sunday the local team journeys
to Cokato for a return game with the
team Of that place. From reports Co.
kato is loading up with every thing
they can find with reputation as a
ball player. We doubt this tho, as
they showed a good team when they
played here.
Willmar will have their. strongest
line up of the year and will surely
give good account of themselves,
win or lose.
A special train has been hired for
the occasion to carry the Willmar
team and rooters to the scene of con-
flict. The train will leave here at
1890 p. m. and will stop at every sta
tion along the line for passengers.
Returning it will leave Cokato about

MAYNARD PROVES
EASY FOR LOCALS
Twilight Base Ball lnaugurated In
This City Last Friday Evening.
Maynard Beaten 10 to 1.

lUHo Nsty 6AOt 6Ttody Evening"
Maynard Beaten 10 to I.
Holding them to two hits, one an
infield scratch, Billy Williams defeat
ed the Maynard team last Friday eve
ming by q score of 10 to 1. The result
was never in doubt, as Willmar got
of to four run lead at the start.
The game was the first of twilight
base ball in this city, and a fairly
large crowd was in attendance. May
nard came heralded as having an ex-
ceedingly fast bunch, and one that
would cause Willmar all kinds of
trouble. With Dean and Lamb both
out of the game, the battle was won
easily.
The scoring started in the first in
ming. With one down McGrew sin
gled to center and went to second on
Bucks sacrifice. Harstad walked and
he and Mac pulled off the first of a
series of double plays. Both scor-
ed when Nordstrom got life on ; n
error. Obbie stole second and welt
to third on wild pitch. Carlson
walked and stole second. Both men
scored when Christian singled to
right field. Another run was added
in the third when Buck got a scratch
double to right field, was sacrificed to
third by Harstad and scored on Nord-
strom's sacrifice bunt. Archie sin
gled to left and stole second and third
but was left there.
Three more runs came in the
fourth inning. Larcum was safe on
an error and stole second and third.
McGrew shot double to center field
scoring Larcum. Buck doubled to
center scoring McGrew. Buck scored
on Nordstrom's single to left.
This marked the passing of Hawk
land as pitcher and Schimmel was
called in and kept things quiet until
the eighth inning.
With two down in the eighth Bob
Johnson scratched a hit and McGrew
walked. They worked a double steal,
and scored on Bucks single to left
field. This ended the Willmar scor-
ing.
Maynard scored their run in the
fifth inning. Logan was safe on
Lambs error and went to second on
D. Hawkland's scratch hit. The for
mer scored when Buck threw to third
base and the sun was too strong for
either Harstad or Larcum to see the
ball.
That ended the scoring for the vis-
itors, as they never threatened there
after. The score: -: =. ..ss@%.

Country Folks Speak Of Rest Room

COUNTY, 0PGdN
The discussion of the project for a
public rest room at Willmar attracted
the favorable attention of many coun-
try people. Those at a distance, es-
pecially, who have no regular trading
places in town, would appreciate such
a place, and it would no doubt help
to attract people from distance to
our city. A plan should be adopted
and carried out at the earliest pos.
sible moment.
