Health-giving Air with good accommodations at reason¬ 
able prices are the attractions that call the sportsman and 
his family away from their daily cares, then the .merits of 
CLEARWATER CAMPS should be investigated. 
CLEARWATER CAMPS

ihe little village of Allen's Mills, five miles from Farm¬ 
ington, the terminus of the Maine Central Railroad, and 
the shire town of Franklin County, Maine.

BOW PADDLING 
(continued from page 529) 
man from his seat of vantage as regards 
wind waves will always be on the alert to 
throw the bottom of the canoe up to the 
approaching wave and such good seaman¬ 
ship should never be counteracted by the 
mate up forward. This method of throw¬ 
ing the bottom or high side up to the wave 
is merely allowing the wave to slide under 
the canoe or in other words presenting an 
even plane of water at all times to the rid¬ 
ing lines of the canoe. 
Caution should be exercised by both pad- 
dlers when running directly into high wind 
waves or the hack-lash at the bottom of a 
heavy rapids. Do not attempt to drive the 
canoe into or through it but rather ease it 
or lift it over. This will avoid the taking 
in of considerable water and the possibil¬ 
ity of completely submerging. The exam¬ 
ple can be set here by the bow man and his 
opportunity to choose and time his stroke 
comes as he is running down into the 
trough just back of the wave. 
Under any and all conditions, the author¬ 
ity to change and choose strokes remains 
with the bow man. The stern man or those 
behind him can change and pick up his 
stroke far easier than the bow man can in 
any way try to accommodate those astern 
of him. The latter requires looking astern. 
Paddling necessitates that the eyes and 
blades be invariably kept in front of you. 
THE HUN TARGET 
(continued from page 553) 
the standard training distance and ioo 
(~20o) yards the range for the Bugs. 
This enables us to use our 22 caliber 
rifles with the positive accuracy of ser¬ 
vice ammunition which reduces the cost 
of instruction practice exactly 90 per 
cent., an item to be considered these 
days. We also made up a second plate 
on a quarter reduction for 25-yard in¬ 
door ranges and outdoor ranges having 
a maximum capacity of 50 yards. The 
target has been in constant use for the 
past two months and is an unqualified 
success, not only as an ideal training me¬ 
dium, but it possesses that all desirable 
quality of holding the interest of the 
shooter and of all the scores of men who 
have fired upon it, I have yet to hear a 
single voice of criticism or disapproval. 
You will also note how easy it is to slip 
out of the HuiVs neck from a 5 to a 1, 
but that is exactly what happens in 
battle, and makes this point a virtue in¬ 
stead of a defect. 
Another innovation on this target is 
that qualification is not based on a stipu¬ 
lated number of points, but by consistent 
grouping known as a “Battle Score,” 
which consists of ten consecutive shots 
that are 5’s or 4’s, a single 3, 2 or 1 makes 
the string void and compels a man to 
start all over again. The firing is done 
in all positions, both with and without a 
rest, a course that makes practical rifle¬ 
men well able to cover the Government 
qualification course to the tunc of Ex¬ 
pert. I would like to have my brother 
riflemen try out this target and hear 
what they think of it, so will be pleased 
to mail a few to any subscriber who de¬ 
sires to take up the art of Hun killing.
