As perhaps you are aware
there lias lately been organizes! in this
dace n "Game & Fish Protective Association."
Tiie members propose to wile away a portion of
tneirleisnre time in shooting at ball thrown
from u trap. They have therefore purchased a
trap and ball for that purpose. The balls are
of a composite substance readily dissolved by
the action of the weather and are said to be an
excellent fertilizer, It was our good fortune
on last Saturday afternoon to witness the firt
ball rhooting by the club on the Fair Grounds.
As it was their first efl'ort in that line of course
perfection was not to be expected.
Johnny G , who is said to be quite a Nim
rod succeeded in breaking quite a number of
balls. D. I. . did not seem to be aide to get
the "bead" on them nnd made a fine gooe egg,
A. S. . fiiied to meet the expectations of ihe
lookerson but it would seem from some
fault in the powder or gun rather than from Ids
ability as a marksman as we understand he
brings as much game into town n any of the
many hunters here. M. H . after many in-
eiKctu.il attempts finally "gave it up' ' II
should not be discouraged he should remember!
the story of Bruce and the spider. lie will no
doubt be able to break a ball in time- W
uinit not forget the affable buok seller, G. A.
C who probably made as good a record as
any breaking half Ihe balls he shot at he shot
at lwo One of tiie most active and efficient
members, J.R, S although, present owing
to a severe headache was not able to shoot.
Otherwise it is to be presumed that lie would,have
well fertilized lheground.it would take too much
of your valuable space to particularize further,
and I will simply say that they all handled
the balls carefully.
We learn that the club have two barrels of balls
if tiiey are careful to select good sod for the
ball to fall upon it is likely that they will last a
long time and none need decline joining the
club for fear of the expense of ball.
We have no doubt, however, as time moves
along they will continue to improve and bo
credit to tiie town,
