  • IF THE AGENT DOES NOT HAVE CERTIFICATES; Certificates are not carried in stock at all stations. If your local agent does not have them he can tell you the nearest station where they are in stock. YOU SHOULD PURCHASE A LOCAL TICKET TO THAT STATION AND BUY YOUR THROUGH TICKET TO CAMP PERRY FROM THERE. RETURN DATES; Certificates will be honored in lieu of one-half the regular fare for return transportation at any time up to and including September 27th. They will be validated up to and including September 19th. Certificates which have not been validated by the latter date, will be worthless, THERE MUST BE 250; In order for any one to obtain the special rate the railroads require that at least 250 certificates be turned in. Every one attending the matches should accordingly make use of the certificate plan} if the fare from his home is sixty-seven cents or more. Members living near Camp Perry may not save more than a few cents by using the certificate but they will make it possible for shooters from the west and east to save dollars by seeing that the required minimum of 250 certificates is turned over to the Secretary of the National Rifle Association for validation. This point is of the utmost importance and must be borne in mind by every one going to Camp Perry.
