New Year Resolutions from Note Books of Shooters 
Mr. Givsert has resolved that his ‘personal belong- 
ing,” the Wilmington, Del., “goose-egg,” will be a 
“golden egg before ‘many moons.” 
Luther Squier has resolved not to feel uncomfortable 
when he is taken for a “settled”? married man. 
Less German has resolved to shoot for no more gun 
‘cabinets with men who let their guns “snap” and get 
six shots at one “‘white flier.” 
Ed. Banks has at last realized his “pen is mighty,” 
and has resolyed to do more writing for the sporting 
papers than he did last year. 
Jim Skelly has resolved to send all salesmen, who are 
married, as far away from home as possible during 1906. 
Billy Foord has resolved not to mind being taken for 
a “kid”; to win back the championship of Delaware and 
keep it for life. 
Hood Waters has resolved to stop flirting with every 
pretty woman he meets, and be true to ‘‘just one girl.” 
Mr. Richardson has resolved not to be shy when 
“petticoats” are around, but will face femininity with 
the same grace he centers his birds. 
Captain J. R. Malone has resolved to get a team strong 
enough to beat the Perryman boys, if he has to bring 
them from ‘across the pond.” 
4 hew, Secretary, of the Baltimore Shooting 
Association, has resolved, the dignity of his position 
‘demands that he be notified the next time the Baltimore 
Shooting Association have a prize shoot. 
Clarence Malone has resolved to retire from business 
after five years, with the money he has made on ‘miss 
and outs.” 
Mr. Moxley has resolved to win all the turkeys in 
town and “sandwich” them with great profit. 
Dr. Lupus has resolved to help the boys to victory 
when they have another team race. 
Sampson has resolved to abandon a “snapping” 
when shooting live birds. 
McKelvey has resolved to pay more attention 
shooting and less to the hotel business during 1906. 
i. H. Storr has resolved to make 100 per cent. during 
the new year, shooting Peters shells. 
The other shooters have been too busy to “jot” down 
their resolutions, but let us hope they will be good ones.

to 
Baltimore Shooting Association. 
Bartimore, Md.—Hood Waters won gun cabinet Tues- 
day, Dec. 26. This contest marked the liveliest shoot 
at white fliers ever held at the Baltimore Shooting Asso- 
ciation grounds. The day was bright and beautiful, an 
inspiration to worthy deeds. The members were re- 
markably prompt, and .even the club’s president, Mr. 
on Morgan, graced the occasion. Many guest were 
there. 
The sport began with two miss-and-out events. Malone 
surprised the boys with a lot of fast, ‘‘unkillable’” fliers, 
and when Less German let a “cork-screw” incomer get 
over the boundary line before he could fire his second 
barrel, their speed can be imagined. The score:

This was followed by a 15-bird race. A handsome 
Flemish oak gun cabinet was the trophy to be won. 
Out of eleven contestants, seven men tied with scores 
of 13 each. The contest finally narrowed down to Cap- 
tain James R. Malone and Mr. Hood Waters. Malone 
missed his 6th, and Waters scored, winning the coveted 
cabinet. The scores:

Epcrwarer, N. J., Dec. 28.—The club’s guarantee of 
half the contestant’s losses back worked out nicely and 
to every one’s satisfacticn. We expect to continue this 
idea in others of our shoots. The sliding handicap 
which we always use is proving the only equable handi- 
cap, as can be seen by the scores. Programme totaled
