The officers were authorized to proceed with the piirchase of needed equipment. The by-laws >slll provide that matches shall be held every two weeks and that no member can shoot to exceed ,50 shells on any one day, thus making the expense light and giving all shots an equal chance. Grounds have not yet been arranged for. It is probable that the first match will take place with the first warm days of spring. ——
