BECOMES OLDEST TRAVELING 
SALESMAN. 
Arthur K. Ingraham, seventy-eight years old, 
and forty-five years a salesman in the employ of 
the Joseph Dixon Crucible Company of Jersey 
City, N. J., received a long letter the other day 
from his friend “Uncle George” Olney, in which 
the latter relinquished his claim to the title of 
Dean of Traveling Salesmen on account of his re¬ 
tirement over a year ago from active service with 
the Irving Pitt Manufacturing Company of 
Brooklyn, N. Y. Mr. Ingraham is two years the 
junior of his friend “Uncle George,” and in a 
photograph taken two years ago at a conven¬ 
tion of the National Association of Stationers, 
he stands erect, with a look of mental keenness 
which promises the satisfaction of holding for 
several years to come his newly acquired honor. 
Both Mr. Ingraham and Mr. Olney have been 
connected with the stationery trade during their 
entire combined service of over a century—a 
decade over for good measure. Mr. and Mrs. 
Ingraham celebrated their golden wedding seven 
years ago at their home in Mt. Vernon, N. Y. 
ARE YOU SURE YOUR GUN FITS YOU? 
Realizing the importance of this question, Eng¬ 
lishmen have had shooting schools for some 
time in which were to be found try-guns for fit¬ 
ting purposes, but we Americans have only re¬ 
cently considered the idea. In this country 
many a trapshooter has been able to break 75 
to 85 out of 100 targets for many years, but 
there he stops. Nine out of ten chances his 
gun does not fit him. 
Realizing this, American shooters recently de¬ 
cided to make use of the try-gun. They think its 
use will decrease the number of “misfits." The 
great influx of men, and even the fair sex, into 
the trapshooting army has brought guns of all 
sizes and styles into play. John Brown has a 
gun, which seems to suit him; Bill Jones likes it 
and buys the same kind. Such purchasing has 
caused the “misfits.” 
Baseball and cricket players have their bats 
made for their individual use, as polo players 
have their mallets, and tennis players their 
racquets. They have their grip, manner of 
swing, and other individualities noted or meas¬ 
ured, and the implements made accordingly. So 
it is with clothes, a 150-pound man couldn’t wear 
the suit a 230-pound man could, and yet at the
