CHARLIE IS REALLY "IT."
At the weekly trap shoot on
Thursday last, Mr. C. Fritz landed
the medal safe with a ten -straight
score, The gun, used by him was a
Winchester Repeater, and it is a
fact worthy of special note, that
the three highest scores were made
with single barrel guns. The time
has gone by when a score of seven
is any use so far as our club is con-
cerned, and "we" aro evidently
obliged to bid the Hess Medal a
permanent adieu. Fritz, is justly
elated at his success, so rnneh so
that he is wearing his badge of
honor on the peak of his cap. P.
Sipple also made a straight score,
but the row of figures look more
like a bunch of miniature post
holes. The score :--

A story is going the rounds of a
couple of young people who attend-
ed church recently. When the col-
lection was being tereen up the
young man commencers' fishing in
his pocket for a dime. His face
expressed his embarrassment as he
hoarsely whispered: "+I guess I
haven't a cent, I 'e leangecl my
pants." The young lady. who had
been examining the unknown re-
gions of woman's dress for her
purse, turned color and said, "I'm
in the same fix."
The trade territory of atown is
not all dependent upon the distance

will come only as fastai.s it is fore•
ed to. But if tbe merchants go
after business in the surrounding
country, advertising in every pos-
sible way, trade will come from an
ever-increasing radius, the town
will gain a reputation for being
awake and it will forge to the
front. It is the igen in the town,
and not altogether the 'hien living'
within a certain distance from it
that makes the town.
