Three years ago, Cedet Carr-Harris was a memper of Ottawa collegiate cadets, and it was in that city that he learned to shoot. It may be said that this corps is known to be one of the best cadet corps in Can- ada. Later, when he went to New Brunswick, he was able to get a great deal of practice, but did not dis- tingnish himself as a marksman. When he came to Kingston he con- tinued his shooting, with the result that he improved greatly. He did not score high enough to go with a phek- ed team to the Dominion Rifle Asso- ciation meet last fall, at Ottawa, but nevertheless he went there on his own record as a Highland !cadet. He did exceptionally well atl Ottawa, coming tenth in the last match, with a score of sixty out of a possible seventy. He also made a good dggregate and won about #40. At the prize meet held at Barriefield ranges "fast August, he made very good scopes. When the cadet competition was made known he practised faithfully under the direction of 'Lieut. W Swaine.
