Gun Club on Oct. 26 under sunny, autumn skies and 
conditions which generally promise or warrant classy 
performance. But with one or two exceptions the re¬ 
sults were otherwise. Parry led in the practice event 
with 92 per cent., and Wilson, at 16yds. won in the 
spoon contest at 50 targets. The scores:

out at the regular Saturday afternoon shoot of the

again to-day with an average of 81 per cent., and North 
and Dixon tied for second honors with 80 per cent. each.

Game. flAli along the route of the Railway are streams famous for their SALMON and TROUT fishing, also

No Shortcomings 
The Smith Gun has no shortcomings—not one. The 6 Hunter 
brothers, with inventions, precision, workmanship and experience, 
kept after shot gun shortcomings for 22 years, until they had wiped 
out the last and least important one. 
“6 Times 22 Years Experience” gives the shooter of a Smith 
Gun the fullest possible pleasure in the field, and the maximum 
game in his bag.
