the latter point, it may be mentioned
that their two national card games

Habits, unless they are good ones,
arc bad things to form when it comes
to trapshooting. and very often a lit
tie detail overlooked at the start Of
a noyice's education will prove a very
serious handicap later on in the sport.
For instance the proper position "at
the score"-which by the way is the
term that describes the mark at which
the shooter stands when shooting at
the targets-may seem mere detail.
Il is. But Il Is far more important
detail than the average beginner re-
alizes. II must be an easy and nat
ural position. If It is at all "stilted"
or cramped it is only logical that ones
shooting ability will certainly be ham
dicapped.
Watch the expert shooter as he
stands at the score Note the perfect
ly natural position he assumes. There
is nothing TO hinder or hamper his
work. His attitude is not strained or
awkward. His body is poised to
swing easily from his lips. He is
ready to meet any target that is
thrown and his gun swings free and
clear under every condition. Uncon-

We would suggest as one of the best of

This league would do much TO further a

There are many particulars In which the
people between the bays should have a
nmtuality of interest, and the Delmarvia
