THE KENNEL POCKET RECORD 
Morocco. Price, 50 cents. 
The “Pocket Kennel Record” is, as its name implies, a 
handy book for the immediate record of all events and 
transactions which take place away from home, intended 
to relieve the owner from the risk of trusting any im¬ 
portant matter to his memory. 
This day’s shooting may be dismissed in very few 
words. Barely had the boys got started when rain be¬ 
gan to fall, and only forty-four really got any shooting 
at all. Several who came to shoot never took their 
guns out of the cases. And wht'n it cnce started in to 
rain, it came down good and plenty. By 3:30 P. M. the' 
city’s weather bureau reported that 1.72 inches of rain 
had fallen. Many of the last scores were made while 
the rain was bt’ating down, and after a long wait, the 
shoot was finally declared off. 
The “Squier money-back” system worked excellently 
well, all the amateurs who had shot through the pro¬ 
gramme as far as it was completed being re'paid their 
losses in full, barring of course the cost of targets shot 
at. Purses also paid we’il, and those who shot in any¬ 
thing like form were surprised at the amount they re¬ 
ceived back from the cashier. 
Luther J. Squier himself, assisted by Lloyd R. Lewis, 
of Atglen, Pa., ran the office, which is in itself a state-! 
ment to the effect that everything in that line ran 
smoothly. 
The honors for the two days were as follows: J, 
Mowell Hawkins won first average with 220 out of 240 
shot at. A. B. Richardson was second with 217, and of 
course was also entitled to first amateur average. Lester 
S. German was third with 215 breaks, his trigger guard 
botheVing him a good deal. P. B. Pfleger and E. M. 
Ludwick won second and third amateur averages re¬ 
spectively with totals of 203 and 200. 
The rain not only put a stop to the shoot, but it 
also temporarily put out of competition the Wawaset 
trophy, a challenge trophy, open to any person who re¬ 
sides within 200 miles of the’ city of Wilmington. This 
trophy was first put up for competition at last year's 
tournament of the Wawaset Gun Club, and was won by 
A. B. Richardson, who in turn lost it in a match with 
L. S. German. German then at different times defeated 
Edward Banks at Betterton, Md., and L. J. Squier at 
Wilmington, both having challenge’d for the trophy. 
Then a few weeks ago he was defeated by W. M. 
Foord, of Wilmington, who had challenged for it, and 
Foord lost his title to it Tuesday of this week, the 14th, 
being defeated by Edward Banks, from whom the' club 
redeemed the trophy, with the idea of putting it in 
open competition at this shoot. As matters now stand 
the club holds the trophy, but there is a strong proba-i 
bility that it will be placed in ope'n competition at the 
Maryland county shoot to be held shortly under the! 
management of J. Mowell Hawkins. Six contests for 
the trophy have been held thus far, and after it has 
been contested for eighteen times, it is to be put up, 
for final ownership, all those having won it one or more ; 
times being entitled to a chance in the final competition., 
No person is entitled to more than one chance', no matterj 
how often his name may appear on the shield among! 
the eighteen to be recorded there.

Bea^rs I Hatvc Met—And Others. 
By Allen Kelly. Paper, 209 pages. Price, 60 cents. 
Mr. Kelly’s most excellent book of bear stories, thoug 
for a time forgotten, has recently come to have an ex 
cellent vogue. This is not strange, since bear stones 
like snake stories, always appeal to men, women an 
children, many of whom perhaps acquired their firs 
interest in these animals by reading of the achievement 
of the bears which figured in Bible history. At a 
events, the stories’ in this volume are interesting, an 
are well worth the reading by any audience.
