Corresponding Secretary R. S. Pringle, Bradford, Pa., 
writes us as follows in respect to the Pennsylvania State 
shoot: “We expect to make this shoot a hummer, as we 
will give plenty of money, valuable merchandise and 
other prizes. Will use the Squier money-back system for 
Pennsylvania shooters. Those from outside are welcome, 
but take their chances on winning their entrance back. 
Will have a side issu? for shooters from other States in 
the way of an optional sweep, and this will be open to 
all amateurs.”
