The Western Pacific Railroad uses a Chevrolet "locomotive"
for inspection trips by its executives over the company's
lines.--It covers the route from Sacramento through the steep
Feather River Canyon to Salt Lake City. The car can make
a speed of 45 miles an hour, and the Chevrolet transmission
allows it to climb the steepest grades.

There are very few., if any, com-
inunities on the Pacific coast and
I in the mfddle west where the name
(and fame of Captain A. H. .Hardy.
! Holder of world's marksmanship
: championships, are unknown. Cup
j tain Hardy has just completed one
j of the most strenuous exhibition
, tttmru-nrics ever undertaken duriiiK'
j his lonj; career and has emerged
I with a notable addition to his lvnj;
( list of shooting championships.

air. Another has been his lent,
performed numerous times recent
ly, of unerringly crashing clay
pigeons with his rifle while travel--ing
40 miles an hour in his lluiek
automobile.
"In fact, during recent months
much of my exhibition shooting
has been from an automobile,"
Captain Hardy stated in a recent
letter to Verne Jennings, local
Muick dealer. "And naturally 1"
have had to use u car which is
practically one hundred per cent
trout from vibration. Having
owned eleven consecutive liuicks,
1 accordingly turned to tbe same
car for my exhibition wark. and
it lias certainly filled tho bill to
my complete satisfaction.1
Keeently, standing on the front
bumper of a 1 :tJ!t Hulck sport
roadster while the engine was run
ning, the captain placed con
secutive shots through a minute
bulls-eye target held by a comely
young woman assistant. Captain
Hardy's recent exhibitions huvo
been lven under sponsorship of
tho Peters Cartridge company.
