WARREN GUN CLUB
WILL NOT HOLD SHOOT.

c. Il. Grinder. Secretary of the
Warren Gun Club, informs IL Sheaf
reporter. that the local marksmen
will not hold their annual shoot
this year. The principle reason for
not holding the trap shoot this year
are the present conditions brought
about by the war. Owing to the
war, the prices of all kinds of
amunitiOns have gone up consider
ably and thus has made 1t almost
impossible for the average sports
men to participate In the shoot. 4
greater number of the smaller
Journeys throughout the state have
been postponed owing to the above
conditions and also to the fact that
a large amount of gunpOwder will
be conserved If no shoots are held.
