Garrison-Highland Rod and Gun Club. 
W’est Point, N. Y., March 30.—-The Garrison-Highland 
Rod and Gun Club held their first tournament on March 
2G. We had a fair turnout and a fine time m general 
and shot at a total of 4690 targets. 
Besides the regular 15-bird events, we had a team 
shoot between eight members of the Monroe Rod and 
Gun Club, and a like number from Garrison-Highland 
Club, and, sad to relate, we got trimmed to the tune 
of 43 birds; but this being our first oft'ense, we hope 
to do better next time.

22 Automatic Rifle 
The novelty of its operation is one of the 
fascinating features of the Winchester .22 
Automatic Rifle. Instead of the downward 
and upward motion of a finger lever, or 
the backward and forward thrust of a slide 
handle, the pull on the trigger is the only 
effort required to shoot the rifle ten times 
in succession. The only limit to speed 
in firing is the rapidity with which the 
trigger can be pulled before each shot. 
With this speed is coupled fine accuracy, 
light weight, simple and strong construc¬ 
tion, and ease and quickness of handling. 
Note the beautiful appearance of the rifle. 
It lists at $25.00, but is sold everywhere foi 
much less. It is the ideal vacationist’s rifle
