A. M. sharp on Thursday the 4th, and at 9 A. M. on 
Friday. This is a registered shoot, to which the Inter¬ 
state Association has contributed $100 as a part of the 
Squier money-back special fund. The program calls for 
ten 15-target events, $1.40 entrance to each event, and an 
optional sweepstake of $1.00 in each event. There is an 
extra entrance of $ 1.00 in the regular events for the 
Squier money-back system, and to be eligible for this 
system, a contestant must compete in all regular pro¬ 
gram events. The Squier money-back system does not

more straights ycu make the bigger your share of the 
purse. This event will run all day.

Sunburv, Pa., or A. H. Siegfried, Selinsgrove, Pa., will 
be delivered free at club house. Further information 
from J. W. Schoffstall, Secretary, Sunbury, Pa. 
The club is anxious to secure the 1912 State shoot, and 
says concerning it: . 
“The Sunburv-Selinsgrove Gun Club is working for the 
State shoot for 1912, and respectfully asks the support of 
the shooters in obtaining the same. We have the facu- 
ities for handling it, and can offer just as many ad¬ 
vantages as any other club. Being at the center of the 
State, our location cannot be surpassed. The fact that 
this vear the shoot is in the western part of the State, 
and last year was the extreme southeast, is an additional 
reason for holding it in Sunbury next year, as we have 
an ideally central location. And it is a very good center 
of railroads, making it extremely easy to get to. The 
P. R. R.. P. & R. and D.. L. & W. all have good train 
service to Sunbury. We have ample first-class hotel ac¬ 
commodations and can guarantee the rates will not be 
raised for the shoot, should we get it.” 
Dealh of Herman B. Sayles. 
Indianapolis, Ind., April 18.—The Board of Director: 
of the Indianapolis Gun Club sent the following reso 
lution to Mrs. F. F. Sayles, mother of Herman B 
Sayles, late a member of the Club: 
Mrs. F. T. Sayles, 1307 N. Meridan St., Indianapolis, Ind 
Dear Madam: 
At a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Indian 
apolis Gun Club, Saturday, April 15, the following reso 
lution was adopted and ordered spread upon the minute 
of the meeting: . 
Resolved, That, whereas the Great Field Marshal, u 
the exercise of His Infinite wisdom, has summoned ou 
beloved comrade and fellow club man, Herman B 
Sayles, to the ceaseless chase that lies beyind the Grea 
Divide, we therefore, in testimony of our high regari 
for him, do record here our humble tribute to hi 
memory. . 
Imbued in a high degree, as he always was, with 
spirit of fair play, and with ideals of honor than hav 
never been excelled in the ethics of sportsmanship 
possessed of a kindly disposition, generous and ho: 
pitable almost to a fault, Herman B. Sayles carved ou 
for himself in the esteem of his sportsmen associates 
place such as few ever enjoyed. With him no person! 
service was too menial, no task too difficult, and n 
sacrifice too great, if thereby an uplift in sportsmanshi 
among his fellows could be accomplished. 
We mourn our loss, and we extend our kindly syn 
pathy to his bereaved mother and sister.
