RISING GENERATION

THE IMPORTANCE OF

SHOOTING

"The question of military training is just now exercising considerable comment, but littte is being said about rifle shooting," remarked Colonel It, J. Collins, chief executive officer of the Dominion IMfie- Association, when speaking ;i.t a smoke- concert of the Karori Rifle Club. ''The man in tlio street never bestirs himself until it is too Late, and you cannot arouse him to do what is required." They must look to the rising generation for the defence of the- Dominion, and in that connection he wished to emphasise the importance of teaching the boys to shoot. "If you do that," continued Colonel Collins, "all will be well. The question of military draining is on© that sonic people "do not like ; still, we have to have military training, and. shooting forms a vory important feature, ■for if a soldier cannot shoot he'is of very little, use. Therefore, it is to our youths that we must look for our future marksmen. Boys will dadly undergo training in physical drill and shooting, and such training should be made part of the cumeulum in every school. . . Tench the boys to shoot and they will learn the defensive filiirit, and the offensive .spirit «s well." Colonel Collins urged all riflemen to take an interest in teaching r ifl o shooting to the Senior Cadets and said that 'at the next D.11.A iveeting the programme would include a. special match for cadets.

DO YOU SUFFER FROM GOUT?

Has gout got you in its grip? Do you suffer from rheumatism, sciatica, iumbaKO, or rheumatic gout? Perhaps yon have- bought liniments, plasters, and embrocations, nml found that although they brought temporary relief tho oid'trowbio soon returned. Or perhaps you tried some largely advertised pills, .salts, cir cure-all, which claim to cure every ailment, including rheumatism—of course, they too, absolutely failed to cure. Now, in fairness to yourself, in fairness to us, wo want you to give Rheumo a trial Ilheumo will not relievo any and every trouble, but it seldom fails in oases of rheumatism, gefut, sciatica, or lumbago. All these diseases a,re duo to excess uric acid in tho blood. The main cause is the failure of tho kidneys to do their work. PermiUieiit relief'cannot bo sscured until tho excess has been removed. Rhcumo seldom fails to remove this excess— 2a 6d and 4s 6d.—Advt.
