GRAND PRIZE— ST. LOVIS. 
K unanimous opinion by the Supreme Court of the United States 
will convince the most skeptical on any question of the law. 
An inventor may say he has a good patent and find people who will 
believe him because he is an honest man, but the majority would prefer 
to wait until the highest court had pronounced it valid. 
Many gun makers have advertised that they build the best gun on 
earth, but most shooters prefer better proof than such extravagant 
claims. 
Great international expositions like the World's Fair at St. Louis 
become a sort of Clearing House for claims of just this nature; a kind 
of Commercial Court of Last Resort where rival manufacturers meet 
with conflicting claims of superiority and whose goods are then brought 
before expert judges and impartially judged to a fixed standard of 
merit, and where the final awards are recognized by the public the 
world over as conclusive. 
Few people.realize the high honor accorded Mr. Greener in placing 
his name at the head of the list of Grand Prize Awards in the gun 
section at the World's Fair, and fewer people know that in order to 
receive a Grand Prize it was necessary to prove to three separate juries 
that Greener guns possessed at least ninety-five out of a possible 
hundred points of all that was meritorious in a shotgun. 
On the juries were experts and gun makers from France, Belgium 
and England as well as from America, and a differepce of as much as 
five points on all of the questions considered was sufficient to prevent 
the award of the Grand Prize. 
Furthermore Mr. Greener has been awarded prizes in thirty-three 
other international expositions, but the supreme test was at St. Louis, 
for the reason that the standard of merit was so high and a Grand 
Prize so difficult to obtain. 
Next week we will refer to the principal points of merit upon which 
the Greener gun was judged, and will ask the readers of this paper to 
become a fourth jury and decide whether the Greener gun is not as 
near perfect as it is possible to make it.
