THE LISTENING POST.
WE THOT WE were going to ditch this paper work this week , in favor
of our esteemed friend and fellow-townsman, Corpl. Shaffer, who
hasn’t much to do anyway, but the weather man put a crimp in our
well-laid plans.
OUR OLD FRIEND STEVE, the celebrated ton3orialist, who always gets
everything almost right, says they have a new bullet for service
ammunition, .called the ”shave-tail” bullet.
WE HAD INTENDED to-give you a list of the best alibis to use in
connection with poor scores on the range. However, it looks as
if we will need them all ourselves, so we cannot divulge «them
promiscuously.
BULL AND BULLSEYES are much in evidence on the target range these
days . Notwithstanding this, we hereby issue a general warning
that it is a little early for anyone to make arrangements for
selling one automatic pistol, assorted, complete.
