2 3: PEE? i hE % + Competing When Mr. Topperwein planned his visit to Sea Girt, and take 'part.in big shooting tournament ' undér the auspices of the National Rifle Assoei- ation, his wife decided that she would: like to make the trip, too. The idea d to tim, and She amanged to leave her little boy. a lac of about five years, with some of her relatives. Packing one of her favorite in a. suit-case, she made the journey to the New Jersey rifle range. When she first went out on the range to shoot she was observed by all eyes. Little wonder, as she was 'the only woman taking part in the work with seven hundred men, . It was a novelty for even the staid! sharpshooters to see a pretty wo- man not only manifesting comsidera- ble interest in the men and the tar- gets, but to be shooting, and shoot: ing * hersel = However, Mra. Tonperwein soon cap: tured all of the officers and men, re- gulare and National Guard by her womanly wanner, There was nothing theatrical about the shooting of Mrs. Tonnerwein. She did not seek motorietv. She was ven- uinely interested in shootine because her husband was such an exvert shot, snd having been well instructed hy him, she was skilful in the usé of the rifle. After she had got wmccustomed to the 200-vard rance, Mrs. Topperwein announced her intention 'of entering the national marksmen's reserve match, and in it made a scove of 59 po'nts out of a possible 75. ; This wes the match in which shoot- ers qualified for recisttation at the war department as memhers of the national reserve of sharpshooters. I~ Now. when this match was arranged no one imacined that a woman wonld take rart. The other me'ches at the Sea Girt tourney were for National Guardsmen, members of the various shooting associations and of the re gular army. This varticular trial of skill was for a different 'purnose. Tt was onen for try, and was for the purpose of col- Jeoting the names of exverts who would he rveeistered as members of | national reserve of sharnshooters-- Mrs. Topperwein' ; === with Army Men at oo Yards. shooters from all martes of the con | while the other riflemen stood about | looking on tion. $ Mrs. Topperwein is a wise, young woman. She received plenty of flat- tery and no end of compliments, but she did not allow it to turn her head. / She took the compliments as being due her husband, who had tawrht her to shoot, and she felt that ehe credit for her splendid work with the rifle wa® owing to his patience in instrue- ting her in the art of shootin~, Spending the greater part of the day on the rifle range, she shot as she had the opportunity and was riot at all mannish in her demeanor. She was admired for maintainir her wo- manly reserve at all times. in chatiing with her new friends be- tween her turns at the tar-et she stated that she bad a ~reat liking for the sport of rifle shooting, and she thousht # strance that there were not, more women who cared to shoot "When T get a lot of compliments from the wen, IT appreciate them, but think it is all due to my husband's work, and I do not allow it to turn mv head," she said. The pretty little Texan thinks the world of her big husband. She low hor little boy at howe in Pedas? Ging said she was glad indeed that the little fellow Had a strong resemblance to his father. While on the rifle range at Sea Gict Mrs. Tovnerwein met many prominent officers in the regular arnmiv and of the National Ggdrd of the different states and was showered with compliments for her skilful shooting. She listened to the comvliments with reserve, and modestly disclaimed any credit for her skill, Until they saw her shoot there were few of the riflemen who would helieve that it was possible that a slieht little wo- mon could handle the rifle with such skill, with undisguised admira- Sunlicht Soap is better than other soars, but is best when used in the Sunlicht way.
