Ratcliffe of the 1st Bn. Royal Ulster Rifles, and C.QMS. Wallace of the same unft, follow with scores of 45 each, after which there were numerous totals of 44 downwards.

and after a close contest in which there was much tie-shooting, the team from the Headquarter Wing using the rifle “as issued" defeated their opponents who were armed with the "1914" weapon.
We are asked to state that the new Issue of the Association's "Bulletin" is now ready for dis- tribution, and that amilated units and clubs therefore should get 'in touch, with the Honorary Secretary, as early as possible, in order that the necessary arrangements may be made for the copies to be in the hands of those concerned with- out delay.
It is worthy of note, as showing the interest which is being taken at home in the "Bisley" type of shooting. that a banquet is being held next week in London (under the auspices of the premier Rifle Club in the United Kingdom, the English XX Club), which has be- come so popular that a very large number of Bisley ridemen have applied to attend.
Among the many guests who have accepted the Club's official invitations are: Rt. Hon. A. Dua Cooper, Secretary of State fr War: Admiral of the Fleet Sir Erle Chatfield, First Sea Lord; Field Sir Cyril Deverell, Chief of the Im- perial General Staff; Air-Chief- Marshal Sir E, L Elington.
