hold its weekly shoot tomorrow over
its traps across the historic Brandy

portunity to the members to get in
form for the opening shoot of the
Philadelphia Trapshooters' League

held at Lansdale. Pa, on September
%.
Many of the regular gun club men,
hers will be at Atlantic City on Sat
urday competing in the Westy Hogan
special, an event which every year at
tracts hundreds of shooters from all
over the United States. As a result,
the attendance at the local club will
probably be smaller than usual. thus
providing an excellent opportunity
for beginners who dislike TO shoot
before a large crowd to practice
among themselves with no gallery
looking on. Guns will be available
at the club. and members will be
very glad to teach the novices the
sport OF trapshooting, instructine
them in tho correct method of loading
and holding a gun; the proper
shooting position, the correct align
ment of the gun, and all other points
necessary to develop them into sue
cessfui transhooters. Hunters, whose
shotguns have been idle since the last
