The real cause of the noises may be laid to either one of two sources, one being that of the work of the dynamit- ing squad working under Superinten- dent William Edwards, of the North Shore Mosquito Abatement district, in opening up the Skokie ditches, or one of the frequent meets of the Waubun Gun club, more recently re-christened the Northfield Gun club. The club, which is only one year old, now numbers 23 enthusiastic members. The club has two automatic traps for clay bird shooting, and beginning to- morrow will hold the first weekly Sun- day shoots. Plans are underway for club contest shooting with neighboring clubs and, in all probability, cup trophies will be posted. The club has an excellent range and always welcomes those interested in meets of this nature.
