There is need of teacher at the borough school to take sections of the fifth and sixth grades It has been difficult to secure first class grade teachers this year as many towns are paying from $1200 to $500. Agencies find it difficult to fill these positions. There is still need for boarding places for several teachers. It is hoped that some one will be willing to take the teachers to board. Please confer with MT. Handy, superintendent of schools.
 Stafford's ball team broke it's string of defeats by accomplishing a win
 over the Session Clock Makers of
 Forestville Sunday afternoon when
 they played in Keefe's Plains. The
 score read to 1. The visitors lone
 run came in the ninth chapter when
 the affair was thought to be locked
 up in the ice box. And came in
 through clean hits too. Mathewson had famed two when LaWrensOn came
 to the plate and sent out a one-base single between first and second. He
 stole second and when Allaire, the
 next man up dropped an untouched crack beyond second he came in. Alaire was put out at third. One in the second, two in the third and one
 in the seventh was the way the local s
 runs were chalked up. MathewsOn' s serving was an important fact in bringing about the result, but another event of no small value was a three bagger by Dupre, which scored the first run. Madsen's hit scored the second two runs and, the final tally was made when Mathewson hit out a single. The team seems to be taking little more care in the initial inning which fact bodes we'll The score.
