declaring they have no doubt as to
the decision of the voters at the polls

Central school, which burned.

 ABOUT SHOOTING Oh-Time Delusion That America Is Nation of Sharpshooters Has Been Exploded by Modern

By M, HARyIE

It seems now that Congress is about to pass the much talked of prepared ness" bills. The continental army bill has been practically abandoned and att tention is now centered on the Na- tional Guard as the only auxiliary Of the regular army. In a few weeks Con- gress will have completed It's work of federalizing the National Guard and then will begin the upbuilding of 8 great citizen army of defense.
 To those familiar with militia affairs the continental scheme has always seemed rather visionary. Few have had any faith in it, for no one has yet been able to show that it would stand the test of actual experience. So Congress has turned to the building up of the National Guard instead.
 Friends of the militia and of pre- paredness are highly pleased. They see in the near future the realization of all their hopes and the adoption of the plans which. they began advocating years ago. The placing of the National Guard under the direct control of the President and the payment of a small sum to the members as compensation for their time will result in an almost

 READY FOR RANGE
 In the meantime the local companies are hard at work getting ready for the coming of spring, for with the advent of warm weathSS their activities will be doubled. It is then that they can get out of doors for camps and prac- tice marches. Also. and what is dearest to the heart of the infantryman, the outdoor shooting season begins April 1. Then the citizen soldier comes into his own and the government rifle range at Boyles becomes his Mecca. Just as the angler begins to dream of shady pools and lusty trout and the baseball fan of strikes and hits. our young mans fancy turns, not merely to thoughts of love-" but also to Spring field rifles and government amnuni- ton.
 Where is the boy who has no love for a gun? What boy Is so devoid ot red blood as not to long to pull the trigger of real rifle? There is some thing about firearms that has an ir- resistible appeal. It may be the noise or the "lSick" or it may be survival of the prehistoric hunting and fighting instinct, but whatever it is. few men have escaped it. It is like the measles almost sure to break out sooner or later Wise is the parent whose boy, in following his natural love of guns. has been taught to handle them prop erly and to shoot them we'll.
 There are all kinds of guns and all kinds of shooting. and each kind has it's devotees. but surely none can hold the fascination equal to that of the army rifle. Of all the firearms ever built, it is the king. Of all the imple- ments of war and of the chase, 1t Is the best. Of all the Instruments of precision invented by man since the first stone was shaped into weapon. 1t is the most accurate. the most de- pendable and the most perfect
 No one whose shooting has been con fined to the short range rifle can real- ize what shooting a military rifle means It is to such child's play what chess is to checkers, or polo to, cro- quet. Most men who are able to ring bells and smash clay pipes with a lit tie .22 have feeling that they have learned to. shoot. They fondly imag- inc that such parior tricks really con- stitute shooting The military rifleman

knows that such skill in "holding" is merely the beginning. At long range he not only must be able to hold on the target, but he must know how to dope" his sights as we'll. He must know how to allow for wind and light and tenn perature, and for the dryness or damp ness of the atmosphere. If his rifle barrel is hot or cold, clean or foul, or if the hour be early or late, he must allow for it. If the sky is clear or cloudy, it will affect his shooting for better or worse.
 Then when he has worked out his dope" properly and set his sights cor rectly he must be able to hold steadily on the target. The slightest error in sight setting or an imperceptibla wob- bling of the barrel will send the bull let wild. At long ranges there is noth- ing easier than to miss the target. An error which at 20 or 30 yards would make no difference would ruin shoot CTS score at 800 to 1000 yards. When one reflects that raising or lowering the rear sight one one-hundredth of an inch will change the striking point Of the bullet nearly four inches for each 100 wards of range, the importance Of the dope can be appreciated. But it is the very difficulty of the game that makes it fascinating. It is mans game and there Is no room on the range for mollycoddles.
