Girls shoulder Gums though their is deadly i their purpose is than 150 enrolled in clubs. By Norma k. Elliott it s said the female is Moie deadly than the and one wonders if that applies to the female with n gun in her hand women shots Are certainly display no deadly steadiness of Eye and when they can shoot a 100 Pei cent card on the ranges used men s Rifle clubs of Winnipeg and at least one member of a Loca women s Rifle club has achieved record. Miss Jean Owen How holds the Bronze Silver and Gold medals awarded by the Dominion marksmen for target shooting and s awaiting the arrival of the Silver Poon the testimony that she shot in possibles of 100. Rifle shooting is again taking its place in the front rank of sports or women with three women s Lubs and two mixed clubs established with a continually enlarging membership. According to some of the crack hots is not because the women to rival their Spanish Sisters and take their places in the front Ine in Case of War. Nor that they May beat some lurking gunman to the but that they May take heir places in the autumn at shoot no lodges and in the marshes and ring Home a bag Worth calling a i went out last year and missed every Bird i tried for and Vas so ashamed i decided shooting would be one of the things i would said one of the Fine shots t the Range tuesday evening when few visitors dropped in to see that was doing. There was plenty doing. One roup of girls after another a ived donned shooting togs or jacket and took their places with heir rifles to have an hour or Tiore of practice on the Range with coaches and spotters watching Cor dec tag and drilling them in proper posture tactics and poise. And hiking of poise it is one of most important characters is shooting develops. Jittery nervous women become Placid and Well controlled after a few months r years of this sport. Looking Back through history in Winnipeg one finds that this Young group is not the loners by any Means. In the Early Var Days and prior to that a thriving women s Rifle club was going Trong with two ranges one in the Industrial Bureau for Winter use and one out at Sturgeon Creek and t St. Charles for warmer Days too in fort Garry club open to both ladies and was a thriving concern and the Range situated the fort Garry hotel was a popular rendezvous for some of the rack shots of both sexes. One of the Early presidents of the Winnipeg women s Rifle club was or. M. Ellen Douglass and Inci mentally she was an excellent shot who later went to War. Mrs. F. W. Dudley was not Only a splendid shot it an officer for Many years of in women s club and with Many ther Well known shots took her lace on the ranges to shoot off special events. Mrs. F. E. Broad urst wife of a crack shot who on Ine occasions occupied a place on he Bisley team is a splendid shot my has always had a keen interest n the sport taking her place with ther women in contests with teams from various Canadian battalions rationed in Winnipeg during the and in inter club events. Discussing the War Days club and reasons for the enthusiasm of their members or. Douglass said not the War was nerves and Lack of poise in in women that sent them into the file shooting game. Why one Hus and came to Roe and thanked me or getting his wife interested that she was a different per on. She could actually relax and enjoy Lite whereas before she be ame interested in shooting she was restless nerve racked whatever the reason it was a Rand thing and the openings of Lubs were attended by his Honor in lieutenant governor and lady Ameron who usually arrived in Weir state Carriage drawn by a Fine pair of chestnuts to spend an Houi watching the women on the Range. Before even the Days of the South african War. A woman turned up at the famous Bisley meet to con test with several Hundred men and in a picture taken in 1895 is shown in the Centre of a group of Well known entrants wearing a voluminous skirt stiffly starched shirt Waist with High Collar tailored tie and a jacket that was far from the Boyish Cut of today s suits. On her hair is perched the fashionable Straw Bowler of the period and across her Knees lies a it Adly looking gun Large and heavy. She did not win. In All these years that followed few other women have Ever contested the Bisley event. A few years ago Marjorie Foster a Young English woman entered the Field of 900 and was successful in carrying off the coveted King s prize. Women can snoot As Well As men. It is a matter of practice and steadiness and says the Little Book and miss Foster has answered that by winning against mighty Odds. To Winnipeg approximately one i Hundred and fifty women Are members of the women s clubs affiliated with the Small bore Rifle association. They use the Standard Rifle Range of 25 Yards. The clubs organized Are the shebang and the coaches Are mrs j Sangster a crack shot and the Only woman coach James Forsythe Thomas Rutherford w. Baker and Jack Mcmillan. Most of the girls now Jive their own rifles clean and take care of them themselves and with the opening of the shooting season it will be Small shotguns they will carry. No longer when the spotter says you Are hitting the ring at 9 o clock will a Young lady murmur. How does he get that Rifle shooting jargon is familiar to the women and who knows but Evelyn Bowering or Hilda Edward who Are tied with 395 out of possible 400 s for the league aggregate May be taking in the Bisley shoot any time and bring Back the pot of Gold and cup Bride elect is hostess at Tea during week end whose wedding miss Ann will be an Todd event of next week entertained delightfully at the Tea hour saturday.
