Clearview Gun Club. 
Darby, Pa., Jan. 20.—Ten of the Roxborough Gun 
Club members helped to make the first event of 1912 of 
the Darby Club to-day one of the best shoots held by 
the Clearviews this season. Thirteen Clprview men 
participated in the class events, which, with the Rox¬ 
borough squad also contesting in these classics, kept 
the firing line busy until dusk. The conditions were 
^ targets a man, in two events, class shooting. Bon- 
sall, with 43, led the Class A men, beating Fisher by 
one target. In Class B, Davidson and Kirshner had a 
fight for the honor, 40 to 39. Fink was the only Class 
C man to compete, and naturally his score of 30 won him 
high honors. 
The Roxborough men had a close race for high gun 
among themselves, which ended in a tie between Free 
and George, both of whom smashed 43. Freeman totaled 
42 getting 21 in each event. 
The Clearviews added a new event to this year s pro¬ 
gram, and it started yesterday. It is a miss-and-out 
for a silver spoon, and Kirshner proved to be the 
winner with 9 straight. Scores: 
Class A—Bonsall 43, Fisher 42, Gideon 40, Redman 29

THE HUNTER ARMS CO.. 90 Hubbard Street. Fulton, N. Y, 
HUNTER 
ONE- 
TRIGGER 
In the brush or at the traps you want to 
feel sure of your gun. A second’s loss of time means 
the loss of your bird or a failure to score in the competition. 
The strongest insurance policy the world over for sports¬ 
men is a Hammerless Smith Gun with the Hunter 
One-Trigger attachment. 
THE HUNTER ONE-TRIGGER gives a pull, short, clean 
and quick. There’s no creep or drag. The speed of the 
mechanism far exceeds the speed of the trigger finger. The 
aim is not disturbed - because there is no relaxing, no re¬ 
gripping, no accommodating yourself to the different lengths 
of the stock—but just a firm, steady grip and pull. 
The very newest Hammerless Smith Gun is the 20-Gauge Hunter 
One-Trigger —and it’s a beauty. Weighs only 
to 7 lbs. Just the finest gun that can be made at 
^ —simply all gun 
and no frills. Be sure 
to ask your dealer 
about it.
