PERSHINGS EXPEDITION TO FRANCE WILL BE BEGIN
 MING OF OUR FIGHT.
REGULARS NEED 100000 MEN
National Guard Will Require 10000 More Recruits-General Staff Plans Call For Army of 100000
 Within a Year.

Washington.-Tne United States will be represented on the fighting fronts of Europe, both land and sea, by an army of perhaps 500,O00 men and a powerful force of naval vessels, within year.
 The Pershing expedition to France and the fotilla of destroyers now hunting down submarines in the war zone, are but the beginning. This was indicated in official circles. Ample proof is found in the preparations which the government as making.
 Beginning at once the "big push" for volunteers for the military service will begin. The regular army needs more than 100000 men to bring it to war strength and the national guard requires 170,000 additional. Besides these a volunteer force of 150,000 to fill the places of regulars withdrawn to train the volunteers and the 500,- 900 selective conscripts are wanted.
 With recruiting officers shooting at total of more than 4O0,000-and this is regarded in War Department cir cles as the real test of volunteer meth. ods-every ounce of machinery is to be brought to bear to fill these places before the draft goes into operation, probably late in August.
 The general staff plans call for an army of approximately 100000 with in year. Indeed, the total will be swelled to probably 100000 in that period as the second increment under the conscription bill probably will be ordered to the colors before more than nine months has elapsed.
 Out of these forces division is to be sent to France "as soon as practi- cable" according to Secretary of War Bakers announcement. This means almost immediately. But there is no concealment that this is only the be- ginning. The earlier re-enforcements of the Pershing expedition will be drawn, it is believed, from the regu- lar army and national guard, then in the federal service.
 The army war college is working on PlduS lOI Iu0 0nplOyMcuI Ol tucoo troops. These plans are still incom- plete, it is stated, and before being put into operation would have to have the approval of the general staff, the secretary of war and the president, who "alone is responsible for the con- duct of this war" and "could not evade the responsibility if I would"
 In connection with the army pre- paration rumorse are more and moro persistent of an early shake-up in the general staff The chief-of-staff is ap- pointed by the president, confirmation of the appointment lying with the Senate. Brig-Gen. Hugh L. Scott is now chief-of-staff, but he is the mili- tary delegate on the Root mission to Russia and is not expectd to return to this country before he reaches the age of retirement-in August-and his staff leadership automatically expires. In his absence Maj.-Gen. Tasker H. Bliss is serving as chief-of-staff

Blacks caddie failed to keep his eye
on the ball and when the gallery be-
gun looking for II the caddie fearing
that Black would lose through his
carelessness, surreptitiously dropped a
new ball without notifying the player
of his action, and Black played the
rest of the round with 1t.
When through the caddie's Boosting
of his act the circumstance became
known, the tournament officials felt
they could do nothing but disqualify
Black, who "took his medicine" In u
true, spOrtsmanlike spirit.

MUST TRAIN AT TRAPS
To Be Successful Shot Means
Lots of Hard Practice Work.
Good rrapshot Is Man Who Has Kept
Mind and Eye In Good Condition
Physical Training ls Not OF
Big Necessity.

In virtually every sport In the cur
rIculum tons of matter have been writ.
ten about the proper methods OF
"training" for the event. In this re-
spect the word training means not
practicing. but, rather, physical condi'
tiOning.
Nothing has been said upon the sub
iect of "training" for trnpshooting, for
the very good reason th"t no training
Is necessary In that sport In the gen.
eral acceptance of the term. Good
shooting does not depend upon finely
trained bodies, nerves worked to fne
edge and the perfection of wind ana
limb.
There Is virtually no set form OF
physical standard that covers the de-
scrlption of trapshootlng champion.
The good trapshot Is the man who
after studying the game has kept his
mind and eye in good condition, not
through any special course of physical
training, but by living Clean healthy
life, the only requisite to clear eye
and alertness of mind.
In this respect trapshooting Is a
blessed sport. This explains why 10
can be followed virtually from the
cradle to the grave. 1t imposes no tax
upon vitality and does not place n
premium upon physical strength or
for that matter, upon the best of
health. But II does gradually act rs a
physical developer and remedial to the
system. For who can spend hours out
under the open sky, feeling the sun
beating down upon them, the winds
playing over them, and not gradually
be restored in mind and body to the
limit of vigor?
The trapshooting line mt any tourna'
ment is an interesting study. 1t Is
composed of men of the most diverse
occupations or callings, of absolutely q
variety of physical and mental attri
butes, yet all possess, in common
steady nerves and eyes, which, after
all, are the best indications Of n sount
interior and n sound mind.
However, despite the fact that trap
shooting does not impose the necessit!
of training constantly or of developing
the physical to an inordinate degree
trapshoOters would do well to observ,
n few simple regulations In the cours,
of their preparations for competition
which, after all, are the secret OF sue
cess in this life.
The regulations are:
!. Practice regularly.
2. Eat In moderation of things 70,
} like and that agree with you.
3. Keep outdoors as much as posi-
Bile, but avoid violent exercise.
4. Get eight hours sleep per day.
8. Smoke If you want to, but be mod
crate.
@. Don't worry.
