TEEFY. Clerk. Atkinusun as To the Editor of Tm: Lunmn. DEAR Sm,â€"~I see by your last issue that the Richmond Hill Lacrosse Club have had their annual meeting and elected officers and are perfecting or- ganization to go forth and conquer. it is a. source. of gratification to know that we have in this vicinity a number of young men who are willing to de- VUte their time and energy to keep alive and perpetuate. this, our National Game. I think all true lovers of sport. (and I hope that embraces the general public) will take. an interest in and re- joice at their success. Like many who have outlived their lacrosse days, I have Wished myself younguguin while watching a. game, and was reminded ’of the good old [games of “ shinney on your own side.” and the old lobr school house, and me thinks I hem- a sigh from some of “ the Old Boys " when they take their Way ‘ homewnrd to play their old game of “ chasing the, dollars.” Poor old boys! is there no game that we can play without lowering our dignity? I' think there is, and it is scientific. and may become necessary. I refer to shooting. We are in this young country making history very fast this last few years, and have learned much and have Some very knotty problems before us. One of the lessons we have learned by the South African War, is our need of defence, and one of our greatest problems is a. method of de- fence. VVc cannot all be soldiers and i be drilled and disciplined into all that goes to nuke up a soldier’s existrn 30, but one thing we can do to a large ex- tent, learn thth most necessary thing, how to shoot. And how to make it I nation oi good shots is one of the, greatest piohlvms that is before us to- day. I believe it to he the duty of every loynl Unnudiun to encourage its for as possible the science of shootino'. I see that in \Vestern Ontario they have quite a number 01' Gun Clubs, and hold an annual tournament at which a number of American crackâ€" shots compete. “'hy should not Richmond Hill have a. Gun and Rifle Uluh combined 3’ I could nmne a. number of men of Richmond Hill and vicinity whose standing and knowl- edge of the gun might be made to serve a useful purpose in “teaching the young idea. how to shoot,” and secure not :9 little pleu$ure in so doing, , \Von’t somebody say what they think _uliout it? ..

A Minute too Late “Cheap” watches are dwr at any price. 'l'hey only give you an idea. about what, time it i§, agd you may “ get left.” The railroad companies realize the value of accurate time and- compel their trainmen to carry watch- es which do not vary more than 30 seconds per week. “If familiarty has not (lulled our perceptions.” says en- gineering,"weâ€"especially such of us as our mechanicsâ€"should be lost in ad« mirution of the watches we carry in our pockets. The accuracy with which they measure time is so wonderful that it transcends nearly all other kinds of measurement. It is by no means an extraordinary watch which can be relied upon within an error of five seconds per day or one part in 17.280. This is a degree of accuracy which is absolutely unattainable in many kinds of measurement, and only to he got in others by trained observ- ers working under favor-a ble conditions with high-class apparatus. Compared with other measures it represents an error of less than é grain in one pound avoirdupois, of a yard in ten miles, of one second in five degrees of an arc, of four drops in a gallon and so on.
