DuPont Calendar. 
We have received the following from Mr. T. T. Skelly, 
manager advertising division of the Dupont Powder Co.: 
"Please say to your readers in as nice a manner as 
possible that our stock of 1908 calendars is absolutely ex¬ 
hausted, and that many hundreds of requests (we might 
say thousands with perfect truth) will of necessity have 
to be refused. VVe are simply swamped with such ic- 
quests, and it will take us some time to acknowledge 
their arrival and to return stamps to all those who sent 
us the- requisite ten cents in coin or stamps for the 
calendar. No one regrets more than we do that we can¬ 
not comply favorably with all the requests received, but 
it is gratifying to find that our selection of a subject 
for our calendar has received such an unanimous in¬ 
dorsement.”

Jan. 27-Feb. 1.—Twenty-two caliber Indoor Rifle League 
of the United States, under auspices of Columbia 
Rifle Club. 
Golden Gate Rifle and Pistol Club. 
The Golden Gate Rifle and Pistol Club celebrated the 
end of its shooting season with a shooting festival and 
banquet New Year’s Day, at the Shell Mound range. 
It was proposed by the members of the organization to 
give a shooting contest as a feature of the entertain¬ 
ment of the big fleet here next spring. The plan is to 
determine the most skillful men with small firearms from 
among the 14,000 sailors and incidentally give the crack 
landsmen from around the Bay an opportunity to com¬ 
pare their ability with that of the Government’s trained 
fighting men. A conference is to be held the coming 
week between the officers of this club and representatives 
of the other gun clubs around the Bay to formulate some 
definite arrangement. 
The scores for the year’s shooting were averaged after 
the last day’s shoot, and H. A. Wobber was declared 
king for the coming year. R. Jones was awarded the 
membership prize for the most new members during the 
past year. 
Following are the scores made by the different mem¬ 
bers of the club:
