That some people have different ideas of what is good trapshooting was very well illustrated in a recent event in which Mrs. Topperwain was shooting in her usual snappy style breaking them about 20 yards from the trap house. A spectator remark ed:
 Gee, that woman is some shooter; look how she busts them"
 The individual to whom the re mark was addressed replied:
 "She sure does bust 'em, but look at that other fellow. He breaks them away out there-he gives them @ chance"
