ARCHERY.

A person at the target is furnished with a card, marked 

 off as follows, for the convenience of inserting the names 



of the shooters, and recording their hits. This will be 

 understood by a reference to Fig. 124, together with 

 the rules for estimating the value of the hits in the differ- 

 ent circles, already given. The account is kept on the 

 card, by making a pin hole through the compartments, 

 corresponding to the circles on the target, for each hit. 



We have been thus particular in describing this sport, 

 because we consider it one of the most healthful and ap- 

 propriate in which young ladies can indulge ; and can- 

 not therefore but hope that it will be introduced into 

 boarding schools generally, as a recreation.
