I was at an All Comers' contest last year, and saw a worthy member of a Light Horse corps shooting in full uniform, not forgetting his spurs. The idea struck me, that, if he had chosen to lie on his back, his spurs might have been useful to hold on by, but when I saw him shooting in my favourite position, with his spurs well up in the air, I certainly did not see their great...
