Local Guardsmen

Plans are being made by Captains
Carskadon and Thralis Of company II
and OF the First West Virginia regi'
ment of National Guard. for holding
outdoor target practice for the men OF
the companies. heretofore 1t has been
customary to hold the. outdoor target
practice at the state encampment. But
this year, Gen. Bond has introduced
the various commanders Of the compa-
nies throughout the state to hold addt-
tional outdoor rife practice before the
state cncampment.
The lCcal officers say that as soon as
the weather will permit and a suita-
Bile range can be found that the out.
door practice will begin. The indoor
practice is now in progress but will
likely be discontinued as soon AS the
outdoor practice is begun. The pres
ent outdoor range Is only 300 yards
in length but by Encouragement and
the addition of few new tagcts the
range can be increased to the 500
vars that is required. The local
range Is located near Pricketts Creek
on the Merliield farm, in Winfield dis
trict.
The outdoor rifle practice will likely
be held at least once each week begin
ming early newt month.
