TRAP AND FIELD
NOTES BY CARNEY.
Clark System of Handicapping Tried
Out At Lakewood.

The new trapshooting champion of
the New York Athletic Club is J. P.
Donovan.
Harry Watson and Jack Norworth,
the actor folk, shot through the Lake
wood Tournament, and are now class
ed as "trapshooting bugs"
%Shotguns are now being used in the
trenches, and with excellent effect, as
the Germans can offer testimony.
One hundred and sixty-eight thous-
and targets were trapped in the Phila-
delphia Trapshooters' League COMPETE
ton during the past season.
Seven hundred and twenty-seven
shooters shot at 40, 900 targets in the
first five weeks of the season at the
Atlantic City T~rapshooting School.
Of this number, 495 were beginners,
107 being women.
Liberty Bonds and Thrift Stamps
are being given as prizes in nearly all
of the trapshooting tournaments. In
fact, they are the only prizes at some
of the tournaments.
The Clark system of handicapping
was tried with success at Lakewood,
and will be repeated at Maplewood.
"Tackhole" Lee, who can handle
any kind of a firearm just as well, if
not better, than any one else in the
United States, is now Captain Lee,
and is at Camp Perry.
C. L. Gilman, who has been writing
the hunting news column on The Min
neapolis News for days and days, is
now a captain in the SSth Division, at

by Mrs. Gilman.
Michigan has an ideal game farm
at Mason.
Indiana is now giving better protec-
ton to the squirrel.

ington. in IA days last October.
Nebraska has shortened the season
on prairie chicken, sage hen and
grouse.

son on prairie chicken and grouse.
Michigan has put a limit of six a
day and 25 a season on geese and
brant.

WORLD DEMAND FOR
SUPPLY OF BEANS
Government Encouraging Civil
ianS' Use of Them Now, but
Wants More Hereafter.

However adequate the supplies of
beans may be now, the American peo-
pie must not suppose that the place of
beans in the worlds dietary will do
anything but enlarge as the var goes
on. The worlds demand for beans
must be satisfied, and the American
farmer must do the job. Now that it
promises to become necessary to watch
our meat supply with increasing care,
the possibilities of beans in the diet
are brought again to the front.
The farmers of the country did their
duty last year and brought out a larg-
er crop of beans than ever before.
According to the figures of the De-
partment of Agriculture, the last crop
Of beans was about $4,000 900 bushels,
an increase of 100000 bushels over
the normal crop. Considering the ex-
traordiary demand for beans by the
army and navy, this crop was not too
large, and only unusual circumstances
explain the fact hal any beans are
left over.
Beans have long been a staple food
for the Army and Navy. On account
of their high nutritiye value they enter
largely into the diet of men in the
field. Knowing this, Americans for
some time felt it was the part of pa
triotism to leave white beans for the
soldiers. But the Food Administration
now urges the use of all beans.
Beans are to be counted as a substi-
tute for meat rather than for the &C.
reals. They can well take the place of
a meat dish on many occasions. Ger
tainly with them in the diet there is
less need for meat.
AS with everything else in the food
line, the prices of beans have advanc-
ed materially since the beginning of
the war. Americans who had been ac-
customed to look upon beans as a
cheap food were somewhat discourag
ed by the increase in price. Lately the
price of beans has tended to fall from
the high point of last winter. Even
at the high price beans are among the
cheapest foods in nutritive value.
In caloric value ! pound of beans is
equal TO over . pounds OF potatoes, "a
pounds of sirloin steak. , pounds of
round steak, IL dozen eggs, 8 pounds,
or . pints, of milk. The protein value
Of beans runs in the neighborhood of
% per cent.-soy beans as high as 46
per cent. With beans at 20 cents a
pound, n cup of bean soup costs
about a fifth of a CEN and provides
1S4.76 calories.
Boston baked beans have become an
institution. Bean loaf skillfully made
can hardly be told from meat loaf,
and there is little difference in nutri-
tive value. By using beans now we
can serve the cause of conservation
and encourage the planting of a good
crop for the coming year.
Also use Thrift Stamps.

JUNIOR SOLDIERS
OF THE COMMISSARY

Boys and girls pig clubs through
out the country are expected to pro-
duce at least 10000 pounds of dressed
pork this year. To stimulate interest
in these clubs and increase pork pro-
duction in Ohio, the Ohio State Fair
will this year offer a number of prizes
and give demonstrations in mixing of
feeds. making ~self-feeders, making hog
houses and other subjects of interest
to pig raisers.
Members of the pig clubs have been
termed Junior Soldiers of the Com
missary.' 1t is expected that every
boy who can do so will raise one or
more pigs for Uncle Sam this year and
help furnish the meat supply for the
soldiers.
Meanwhile-Buy Thrift Stamps.

His Second Appearance.

8. But the third part of the work
of Jesus Christ is presented just as
distinctly as the other two, in the
words, HE shall appear the second
time without sin unto salvation" With
practical unanimity men are willing to
accept that Jesus Christ appeared at
Bethlehem about nineteen hundred
years ago, hat he grew into matur-
ity and died as described in the Bible
but, when an intimation is given that
he is to appear on this earth a second
time there is immediate skepticism,
and sometimes virulent denial. But
here is the statement as clear as it is
possible to make it-"and shall appear
the second time" The first time he
came as a babe, in an obscure place,
and yielded himself to the opposition
OF sinful men even to the sacrifice of
his own life. The second time he
will appear without sin unto salvation.
The first time he appeared with sin,
being made sin for us that we might
be made the righteousness of God in
him. The second time he is to appear
without sin unto salvation; or, we
might say, unto the completion of sal
vation.
We may conceive of the Son of God
looking on poor, frail man, to whom it
is appointed to die and then go to
judgment, and saying, 81 will give him
a complete salvation. He will have
in my salvation something infinitely
beyond what this life can give. In my
second coming l will give him a COM
pleted salvation" 1t is only then that
the graves will open and the bodies
of those who have believed on him as
an atoning Saviour will rise in perfect
power and honor and glory, and the
living saints will be changed.
The time of this second coming is
not known, but it is the great event of
the future, and signs are increasing in
number and significance that that
event is not far distant, and it might
be that in connection with the recov-
cry of Jerusalem where Jesus Christ
was i%ncarnated, where he died, and
from where he assembled into heaven,
that he may come with his saints as
the glorious king, the heir of the throne
of David, and reign in righteousness
forever.

The Incarnation.

l.. The incarnation of Jesus Christ
is clearly presented in the words, "He
appeared to put away sin by the sacri-
fee of himself" The fact of that APP
pearance no Christian denies. Just
now the papers are full of war news
about Bethlehem where hat appear
ance was made. Why did he appear?
Was it to give to the world the super
man, a sample of moral uprightness,
to make possible the sacrifcial life, to
provide a victim of the opposition of
wicked men? Some say, yes, to all
this, but this passage says he came
ito put away sin by the sacrifice of
himself" There was a purpose in his
appearing. Elsewhere we are clearly
told that he came into the world ito
give his life a ransom for many" From
our first notice of the consciousness
of Jesus as to the business on which
his father hath sent him to the last
days of his life when his face was set
on going to Jerusalem to die for the
world, that purpose was the distinct
and dominating principle of his life.
2. In the words, "once offered to
bear the sins of many we have the
historical fact of the death of Jesus
Christ. Again, it is most interesting
to note that the daily papers are tell
ing us of the taking of Jerusalem by
the English, the very location of the
sacriticial atonement. In this offering
we have the fulfilment of the Old Tes-
lament picture of Jesus Christ, as Civ
en- by Isaiah in the fifty-third chap
ter of his prophecies. This was the
accomplishment of the purpose of his
incarnation. Then a fountain was
opened for ~uncleanness, full provision
being made for the taking away of
the sin of the world.

It has been necessary from French
sappcrs and miners to explore the Gel

mines have been found. Mouths of
wells were so mined that explosions
would fill them with rock and earth.
