imitate proves the * "HENDRYX" is the recognized

WHAT THEY SAY OF THE PRE- 

 MIUMS. 



The Manhattan hand camera, which I received from you 

 as premium, arrived in due season and I hereby tender my 

 sincere thanks for your gift. The camera is much admired 

 by all my friends and I am quite envied its possession. 



Mrs. H. D. Warner, Hackensack, N. J. 



The Ithaca hammerless gun you sent, for 35 subscriptions, 

 received O. K. Am highly pleased with it, as are all who 

 have seen it. Please accept my thanks. 



W. H. Smith, Detroit, Mich. 



I received the Hawk-Eye camera promptly and thank you 

 for it. It is a valuable instrument and fully pays me for my 

 work. A. E. Trask, Little Falls, N. Y. 



I received the 30-30 Marlin rifle as premium for 28 sub- 

 scriptions and thank you sincerely. It is the finest finished 

 and best balanced rifle I ever had in my hands, and every 

 one who has seen it thinks the same. Several of my friends 

 think of getting one like it. 



W. P. Springer, Northfield, Vt. 



I have used my new Shattuck premium gun 3 times and 

 have one fault to find with it. It kills squirrels so dead they 

 drop down and lodge in a crotch of the tree, and don't have 

 life enough to kick out. I waited 5 minutes for the wind to 

 blow hard enough to blow one out. I was about 7 rods dis- 

 tant. F. C. Barnes, Plymouth, Conn. 



Received the Korona camera for 25 subscriptions. Am 



well pleased with it and heartily thank you for it. Shall 



always be a friend to Recreation and shall be pleased to 



do whatever I can to advance your interests in this section. 



F. S. Cobb, Attleboro, Mass. 



I had a chance to use my Bristol rod in Livingston lake, 

 in the Adirondacks, and landed 2 large fish. If a man can't 

 land a fish with a Bristol rod he must look out or the fish 

 will land him. It is a beauty. 



F. D. Levens, Ft. Edward, N. Y. 



Allow me to thank you for your kindness and promptness 

 in sending my premium, a Davenport shot gun. I have 

 given it a good test, with shells loaded by the U. M. C 

 Co. , and it shoots splendidly, at 80 yards. I was agreeably 

 surprised. Dr. H. A. Jones, Howard, R. I.
