New Zealand will again be able to make another attempt to win it. “We are all delighted with the whole tour,” said the shooting captain, Lieuten-ant-Colonel H. V. Donald. “I am verj pleased at the wonderful show our riflemen were able to put on. With a win in the MacKinnon Challenge, and second place in the Kolapore Cup, and such good placings in the Queen’s Prize, New Zealand can well be happy at the performance of her representatives. “Part of the success was due to the wonderful team spirit among the men. Such results as they achieved certainly prove the high standard of Dominion marksmanship and lead to the hope that we will be competing at Bisley again in the not too far distant future.”
