careless parents permitted that sort
OF thing, time was when other par
ents who did not take the trouble to
enquire into the matter, made the un-
fortunate mistake Of thinking it was
not a good thing for a boy to make
him a Christmas present of a rifle.
But that could not last. ,
Thanks largely to the United States
government, parents everywhere thru
out the country now are learning that
rifle shooting, when properly direct
ed, is an especially desirable recre-
alton for boys. They are also finding
out that a present Of a rifle brings
father and son closer together; makes
chums of them, so to speak, and so
greatly aids in improving the boy in
the manly qualities which are so ne
cessary for his best all around de-
velopment. It will be apparent that
regularly organized rifle shooting as
practiced nowadays in hundreds of
boys rifle clubs, conducted under gov
eminent regulations, is not only an
extremely interesting recreation, but
has also a serious and very practical
side. Under any circumstances, the
boy who owns a good rifle, takes pro-
per care Of it and shoots at a target
to acquire skill in craftsmanship,
will surely thereby school himself in
~self-control, persistence, mental alert
ness and studious attention to detail
form the habit Of doing things
exactly right.
Last, but not least, ability to shoot
a rifle we'll is one of the most hon
orable and important qualifications Of
citizenship, and it is best to acquire
this ability as a boy, when n has
ample time and learns most easily.
Sustaining Funds Necessary.
One Of the prime causes for the
non-continuance of clubs and associ-
atoms is the lack of a sustaining fund.
Clubs and associations formed for the
purpose Of pleasure are, as a rule, not
organized for profit and, because this
is known, to many members seem to
forget that the original investment
represented by the range and ranges,
with their equipment and %parapher-
MALTA, must have a sustaining fund
and the capital must be provided to
meet the expense of running the club.
This may be much or little, depending
entirely upon the club itself and the
requirements of it's members.
These running" or Service" ex-
penses must be met, however, if the
club is to be a successful one; other
wise members will begin to drop out,
attendance become less and less, and,
finally the few remaining, if any, will
ask: "What's the matter?" But too
late! The club is "busted."
From present indications, there will
be a revival Of state league tourna-
ments, inter-club tournaments and To-
cal county league shoots, all Of which
will cause a (rehaissance) Of good club
shooting and rivalry, that will call for
good equipment and consistent work
on the range.
Now is the time to take inventory,
draft a budget Of expenses for the
coming year, provide for sustaining
dues and enjoy a year Of pleasure,
~unalloyed by financial ire and wor-
ry.

REPORT OF SECRETARY SCOTT
TO MEMBERS OF RIFLE CLUB

The following report was submitted
by Secretary Scott at the Annual
meeting of the club.
Gentlemen; g.
In accordance with an old estab-
lished rule or custom that every or
%ganization is or should be entitled. to
a report from those entrusted with
it's management, and this being the
time for the annual meeting of the
above named club, I take pleasure in
presenting herewith a complete &C.
count Of it's activities during the past
year. -"
AT CUR last annual session held on
March 10, 1918, this club had a men,
berscip of forty-six in good standing,
aide from fifteen of the boys who
had enlisted to serve our country in
the amy ard navy. In conformity
with the rules of the National asso-
citation this club could not report these
to& as beng active members, but
upon consultation with the executive
committee, it was unanimously agreed
that they SHOULD not be reported as
suspended. I, therefore, took the mat
ter up with the National Secretary,
Gen. F. H. Phillips and asked for per-
mission to have our club carry these
toys as honorary members during the
period of the war, and further request
CO the National association to adopt
a similar attitude, provided this pro-
cedure did not conflict with the regula-
lions. I received a very courteous re-
ply from the General, stating that it
would be no more than proper to grant
this request and that the National as
ISOLATION would be proud to adopt
these young men as honorary mem
beers.
The Bottineau Rifle club nov num-
bers one hundred and one members in
good standing, this includes the fifteen
above referred to, who, we trust, will
soon be permitted to be with us again
and take their places on the firing
line" when the club resumes activi-
ties on the outdoor range next spring.
The following members have quail
fled during the target season Of 1918.
for the various grades, to-wit:
Marksmen-Ole Thorson, Ole Kob-
bervig, G. H. Dale, J. J. Krogen, E.
D. Bower, Glenn Nero, Knute Torger-
son, John Gym, Henry Kobbervig, P.
Scott, Joe Balun, Geo. Vosburg, l.. S.
Thor, Elmer Kronlokken, Halvor Tor
gerson.
s;harpshooters-Elmer Jensen, Ole

Expert Riflemen-O. J. Hanson, A,

Therefore, when the National boart

presented which should not have beer
overlooked. e..
AS soon as I was notified by the Ma.
tional board and in possession of the
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1919-04-03
Jules issued by the War Department,

rules ISSUED by the war Department,
I called a meeting Of your executive
committee who nominated a team and
certified these nominations to our Ad-
jutant General, ~reserving the right
to name alternates if necessary. To
our disappointment, we were informed
by the state department that only one
other club in the state had followed
our urse and that no state team
would be selected to go to Camp Per-
ry, although sufficient appropriations
had been made. by the National Gov
eminent to defray all expenses and
the state would not be liable in any
way.
In times past the Adjutant Gener-
al in a state wherein but little atten-
ton had been paid to rifle shooting,
might have been justified in not en-
tering a team to compete in the Ma
tional matches. This year, however,
things were very different. The Ma
tional matches are but part of a
broader scheme to foster marksman-
ship, the prime feature of which is
the development of coaches during the
period of instruction which will pre-
cede the matches. Wherefore, every
state within whose borders there has
been organized rifle clubs should be
represented at the big National shoot.
If sixteen men from each such state
could have attended the Camp Perry
school, and developed into enthusiast
tic and competent instructors, they
would constitute a powerful factor for
good in local organizations. Not
only would they be able to direct tar
get practice along proper lines, but
they would be equipped to conduct
that practice in such a name that
the state rifle range would be a draw
ing card which would bring recruits.
I believe every member of our club
is proud of the fact that we have been
able to establish an indoor range, and
from present indications I believe this
step will do more to maintain the in
terest and hold the membership to-
gether than anything else would do.
Another feature which ought to
create a great interest among the
youth of the city and country tribu-
tary, is the organization of a boys
rifle club, which has been accomplish
ed within the last thirty days. I have
been asked by some Of the "curious'
this question. "Why Boys Rifle Club ?"
Perhaps the best answer would be
the Yankees one Of asking another
question: "Why not?"
There are abundant reasons for
boys rifle clubs, but no good reasons
against them. I believe a majority
Of our people Of mature age would
agree that there are things some boys
do in their spare time which do them
more harm than good . For example,
the seemingly innocent, aimless, "fool-
ing around" -"fooling" is the proper
word, all right-that few people ever
think Of as detrimental to a boy, cas-
lily becomes the foundation for habits
of carelessness, Incidence and gener.
al shiftlessness which may get in the
way of his success in life.
Naturally, similar fooling arounc
with a rifle, shooting at any chance
mark, such as tin cans and bottles
with small regard for the safety OF
other people, is something boys should
not be allowed to do. Because a few

because the entire $17,OO0,OO0 Of bonds

leaving a balance Of S 2,519,O21.05 to be
raised by taxation. But in addition to
this 100000 must be raised for the
soldiers compensation fund; the state
auditor estimates that $4,000 princi-
pal and $4,000 interest on an old
bond issue must be provided for in
this years levy; and it is possible
though not probable that $4,000 may
be raised to pay the 6 per cent inter-
est on the $9,O00,0O 0 bonds which may
be issued this year.. This makes the
total tax to be raised in 1919 for all

and in 1920, when the income tax will
bring into the state treasury an addi-

the necessary mill levy for 1870 at
least six-tenths Of q mill.
