Frank J. Hineline and Dick Lamb,

into the game after a lay-off Of several
months and displayed the form that
several years ago brought him the New
Jersey state championship. He missed
but one target In each Of the two
events, and this In the face Of the fact
that on his last trip TO the traps he
shot in rapidly approaching darkness
Lamb also lost one target in each Of

Conserve Wool.

Second in Importance only to the
food question is the conservation of
the wool supply of the country Our
people should realize that every
pound of wool made up into suits for
them to wear is just so much less
wool available for our soldiers next
winter. Sec. Baker has lead us to
believe that we will have at least
100000 men in France by next
winter with half a Million more in
training camps. 1t requires little
foresight to see what is ahead of us
unless our people are willing to do
without unnecessary new wool cloth
ing, for it has been difficult even this
year to get wool for war work.
9 We import from South America,
Africa and Australia oneihalf the
wool consumed by us, and no more
ships than are necessary can be spar
ed for trade, as ships are needed for
transporting soldiers and supplies to
the front. Every saving of wool, no
matter how small, is important, so
let us cooperate with our govern
ment and do our part towards con-
serving wool as we'll as food.-Con-
tributed.
