Hunting Season Opens Sept. 7th.

Hunting Season Opens Sept. 7th.
The duck hunting season opens Sep
TENDER Z.
Magic words are these for the sports
man. He sees amid the brown leaves
of autumn, on a crisp morning, light
skiff slowly picking its nose through
the winding channels of marsh lands.
He sees a flock of mallards of from
seven to fifteen, always two old birds
and their young, come flying toward
their feeding ground, and his happiness
is supreme.
Later in the season the blue bills and
the famous canvas back, they that
breed in the far north, will wing their
way southwark, and more sport is in
store for the duck hunters here. Be-
tween sunrise and sunset are the hunt
ing hours.
The legislature just finished has made
few changes in the game laws. But it
has made changes in the manner of
procuring hunting licenses and here
after only citizens of the United States
or those who have taken out their first
papers will be granted license.

Sullivan a Come Back.

Billy Sullivan, three years ago first
string catcher for the Chicago White
Sox, is now catching for the Minneap-
oils team. Sullivan was let out last
year by Comiskey on account OF the
great work of Schalk and further be-
cause it was believed that he had
slowed up and was declining fast. But
Sullivan's work with Minneapolis has
stamped him comeback and his many
friends in this city are pleased to know
he is catching and clouting in his old
time form.

Public Schools Open Sept. 6.

School will open Monday morning,
Sept. 6. 1t is desired that all pupils be
present on the opening day. This is
particularly true of the high school
pupils where the program of studies
will be arranged to convenience those
pupils who appear on the first morning.
Parents who are undecided as to the
course of study which their children
should pursue ought to consult with the
principal before school opens. Pupils
who may be uncertain in any matters
pertaining to subjects to be taken dur
ing the first semester should try to de-
termine such matters before Monday.
1t has generally been the condition
that large number of visitors have
inspected the work of the school dur
ing the opening week. The request is
made this year that no visitation of
classes be made during the first two
weeks. After that time too many Wis
itors are hardly possible.
