extend the tournament one day further, making the dates 
May 20th, 21st, and 22nd. 
We believe this will help to increase our attendance, 
as quite a few of the Clubs, as well as individuals, have 
notified us that it will be impossible to attend on that 
day, as either services will be required at the polls and 
would cut them out of the average money during this 
tournament. Yours very truly,

The Wild Goose. 
Homeward the fleet returns, 
A-wing in its bee-line flight. 
Honk, honk! The wild goose flies 
And is lost in the shadows of night. 
Over the lofty spires. 
Mountain and pine and plain. 
The aerial fleet returns 
Back to its home again. 
Over the swollen streams 
Awakened to like once more; 
Honk, honk! The wild goose flies 
O’er valley and field and shore. 
Breasting the roaring gale, 
Unminding the. thunder’s jar, 
The aerial fleet sails swift, 
Straight for the northern star.

Jersey City Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J., March 21, 1914. 
Well this was the day of the North Jersey Trap 
Shooters’ League contests and it was the Smith Gun 
Club of Newark that visited our grounds today and if 
a certain former admiral of the United States Navy had 
been with us he probably would have wirelessed some¬ 
thing like this: We have met the enemy and they are 
ours. nit. What the Smith boys didn’t do to us isn’t 
worth telling as they put it all over us several layers 
deep and then some more. The final team scores were: 
Smith Gun Club, 208; Jersey City Gun Club, 183, from 
a possible 250. Those making the teams were: Smith 
Gun Club^Colquitt, Day, Jr., Page, Baldwin, Trow-
