Missouri State Game and Fish Protective Assn. 
Kansas City, Mo.—At a meeting of this association 
April 10, it was decided to change the dates of the 
29th annual tournament of this association, for the fol- 
lowing reasons: 
The Interstate Association have taken the same dates 
as the Missouri State Game and Fish Protective As- 
sociation, for their shoot at Nashville, and this through 
no fault of this association, as our dates were ciaimed 
long before the Interstate Association named their dates 
for the Nashville tournament. We have decided not to 
conflict with them in the matter of dates. 
In addition to this there are five tournaments sched- 
uled to take place in the territory directly contributory 
to Kansas City within the next five weeks, and realizing 
that these tournaments will draw heavily from the 
ranks of the tournament shooters, we have decided that 
the dates announced by us for our State tournament 
should be withdrawn. 
We are now trying to arrange with the Indians to 
give us their dates at Parkersburg, West Virginia, in 
August; they to change their dates to the week preced- 
ing us. If we succeed in this arrangement, it will bring 
the three best tournaments of the year in line as follows: 
Indian shoot at Parkersburg, West Virginia, second 
week in August; Missouri State Game and Fish Pro- 
tective Association, third week in August, and the Inter- 
state Association’s Western Handicap at Denver, Colo., 
the fourth week in August. 
We will advise you at a later date if these arrange- 
ments are carried out. In the mean time, kindly an- 
nounce that the dates of May 15 to 19 are cancelled as 
the dates for holding the 29th annual tournament of the 
Missouri State Game and Fish Protective Association 
and until further notice the tournament is indefinitely 
postponed, 
R. S. Exvriott, Sec’y-Treas. 

Kansas City, Mo., April 17.—Referring to our letter 
canceling the dates of the twenty-ninth annual tourna- 
ment of the Missouri State Game and Fish Protective 
Association, I now desire to announce the dates of 
Aug. 13-17, for holding the twenty-ninth annual tourna- 
ment of the Missouri State Game and Fish Protective 
Association. This tournament will be held at the Blue 
River shooting grounds in this city, and nothing will be 
left undone to give our visiting sportsmen a pleasant 
week’s sport at the trops. 
We desire to express our thanks to the Indians, and 
the Mallory Bros., of Parkersburg, for conceding us 
their dates, as this will bring three of the best shoots 
of the year tight in line, as follows: The Indian shoot 
at Parkersburg, the second week; the Missouri State 
shoot at Kansas City the third week, and the Grand 
Western Handicap at Denver the fourth week in 
August. These three shoots are so widely separated in 
distance that local interests will not conflict, while they 
will line up all the tournament trotters, so that they 
can be in attendance at all three of the tournaments. 
Ross Evriort, Sec’y. 
Springfield, Mass., Shooting Club. 
THE practice shoot of this club held on their grounds 
at Red House Crossing on the afternoon of April 14, 
drew out only a few shooters, the day being cold and 
windy. The 150 target race between Le Noir and Snow 
resulted in a victory for Snow, who broke 128 targets 
to Le Noir’s 126. Part of the events were shot over the 
extra set of traps for practice, prior to the big tourna- 
ment of Patriots Day.

WINCHESTE 
.22 CALIBER AUTOMATIC RIFLE. 
This handsome, handy little take-down rifle, like history, 
repeats itself. As a means of pleasure and sport it is as far 
ahead of any other .22 caliber as an automobile is ahead of 
the historic one horse shay, ‘True lovers of sport find great 
fun with it shooting moving small game where shotguns 
have heretofore generally been used. Afterloading this rifle, 
allthat it isnecessary to do to shoot it ten times is to pull the 
trigger foreachshot. Although automatic in action, it is sim- 
ple in construction and not apt to get out of order. For city, 
country or camp it is the gun of the day. To get the best 
results alway use Winchester make of cartridges in this rifle. 
Ask your dealer to show you one.
