Doubles Shooting Popular.

Doubles shooting Is gaining great
popularity among trapshooters Of this
country. BY doubles shooting is meant
the release Of two targets at the
same time, one to the left and the
other to the right The shooter then
tries to break both Of them before
they fall to the ground. firing one load
at each target. This is real test OF
shooting ability, and for this reason 1t
is gaining in popularity. No one seeks
a real test of his ability more than a
trapshot. Because Of the increased
interest in this phase of the sport 1t
Is apparent that the doubles champion
ship tournament at the Grand Ameri-

better event than In the past. The
shooters have had greater practice al
this style of shooting than ever be

combination foods peculiar to certain
localities has been particularly fos-
tered by extension agents Of the Uni

leges which carry on boys and girls
club work. Almost every country In
the world and practically every dis
trict In the United States, has spe-
cial "one-piece" dish made Of the prod
ucts in that region. The gumDo OF
the far South. the New England boiled
dinner, the bouillabaisse Of Marseilles
reproduced In New Orleans. Hun
garian goulash, Chinese chop suey, In
dian curry, Irish stew. French ragout,
are instances Of this tendency to blend
flavors in one dish.
Pine bark fish stew is a character
istic dish In South Carolina. Very
probably it was introduced by settlers
from the southern part Of France and
from Italy. Italians living in south
ern California serve q similar fisn
stew. The home demonstration agents
