It is gratifying to note the unterest of our newer 
members and the progress they are making. Iho Ac¬ 
curacy Fb scores of Mr. Towell. Mr. Heetfield ana 
Air. Rose are very commendable for their experience. 
Your directors hope all of you will take part m the 
X -\ C -\ National Tournament, August 22, 23 and 
24. The membership fee is but $1.00 per year and the 
entry fees are moderate. The new entrants those never 
before casting in a National Tournament have tour 
handsome cups to compete for, as well as the cham¬ 
pionship cups. It’s always anybody s game until the 
last cast is made, and it’s a fair field and no favor. 
Then too, your presence sustains the Amateur status 
in the sport Nationally, and you will all have a jolly
