UNIVERSITY CLUB
TO OPEN SOON
Renew Activities For Launch
ing Harrisburg's Most Recent
Club Acquisition

With the approach of the fall sea-
son, the activities of the various clubs
and associations of the city will be
renewed. The recently organized Uni
versity Club of Harrisburg, which now
numbers among its members approx
matelwy $50 men in every business
and profession, who have attended
q college or university for two
or more years, will be comfortably
housed for the next few years on the
third floor of the Hershey building
at Front and Market streets.
The entire third floor has been
taken over by the board of directors
of the club, and the remodeling and
improvements are expected to be fin
ished within a week. After that, it
only remains for the furniture to be
installed before the club is ready for
occupancy. There will be a formal
opening in the early part of Sep
tember.
Every effort is being made by those
In charge to make the club quarters
as attractive and comfortable as pos
slole. The large, airy front room fac
ing the river and Market street will
be used for lounging and reading pur-
poses. To the rear is the poolroom,
where two tables will be installed
and beyond that the kitchenette and
bathrooms and living rooms, which
VIII be sub-let by the club to those
OF its members who care to live in
the comfortable quarters provided
Double ceilings with air chambers,
skyights and many windows make
the lightest and airiest rooms to be
found anywhere in the city. Fire
escapes have been placed at the front
and rear of the building in accord
ance with the law.
The membership of the club is
steadily increasing, although no sys-
tematic campaign has been waged.
Many of the City's most prominent
bankers, business and professional
men have identified themselves with
the organization

Vernacular of Rife Range;
How to "CalI Your Shots

To describe the location of their
shots, rifiemen speak of the target as
if it were a clock face. Thus a shot
in the inner to the right of the bull,
at the height of its center and half
way between the limiting circles, is
a g o'clock three, halfway out" A
hit just below the bull's-eye is a "6
o'clock four, hanging on the bull"
Similarly. a "9 o'clock four, close in
will indicate a shot a little to the
left of the black. One in the center OF
the bull's-eye is "pinwheel." A spot
ter touching the bull is a wait" and
one just inside it q "nipper."
The direction of the wind is also re-
ferred to the clock. "A 6 O'Clock
wind" blows from the firing point
toward the target, "3 o'clock wind
directly from the right, 80 o'clock
wind from the left" and "12 O'Clock
wind" directly from the target.
When the wind shifts between and

which the writer says:
His name was Ejkeschejanewicz
which, after all, was rather more than
a mouthful for any New York board
ing housekeeper, not to mention the
servant girl. Therefore the landlady
called him Mr.. E., for brevity's sake
and by way of Identification, and so
likewise did everybody else in the
house who had occasion to call him
anything at all. For he was an un-
obtrusive, almost unsociable, taciturn
person, having but little to say be-
yond the ordinary greetings of the
day to any of the three men or either
of the two ladies, who, like himself
enjoyed the hospitality of Mrs. Buzza-
