season is Maj. Luther H. Reichelderfer.

Young Men Best.
The results of the national match have
demonstrated one point. which is rather an
important fact. and that is that the
younger shots are superior to the older

young men who did not wear glasses in
any form, proved, in most instances, to be
the best shots.
