Pori Washington Gun Club. 
Poet Washington, L. I., Dec. 25.—A scant half 
dozen aerosaucer exterminators stayed home from 
church on this glorious Christmas Day to shoot for the 
noonday piece de resistance, under the management of 
Capt. C. C. Thatcher, a goodly number of gobblers were 
saved from cold storage and offered up (on the hoof) 
as prizes to the upper register clay scaler exponents. 
Joe Walsh had an eye on a couple of Christmas din¬ 
ners, getting the first with 9 out of 10, and the second 
after missing two targets. Bill Saords lugged home one 
Meleagris gallopavo for Mrs. Bill and the kids. Bill 
scattered the fragments of 8 of the 10 opportunities of¬ 
fered.^ Tom Mallon was the only other shooter with 
anything of a discerning optic. ,He shattered 7 scalers, 
allowing 3 to go unscathed on through the ambient 
atmosphere to a watery grave. On New Year’s Day the 
big event will be a scratch shoot at 50 targets for five 
10-case notes. So far reports say twenty-five have 
entered. If you are nearby or must come from a dis¬ 
tance, drop in. Capt. Thatcher’s hospitality is renowned 
in Nassau county, and he can shoot some. Scores:

PARKER GUNS 
Wear Well, Shoot Well and Handle Well 
Wear well because they are made of the best material by the most skillful craftsmen. 
Shoot well because they hold the charge compactly together at extreme ranges. 
Handle well because the greatest attention has always been paid to the distribution 
of wood and metal, to insure perfect balance and the most symmetrical outline. 
Twenty-bore Parkers have set the pace for small bores in America, and are growing 
in popularity every year with the most progressive sportsmen.
