Y OU know geese—hardy cruisers of 
the skies. They can get away with 
more shot than any other game bird. It 
takes a close, hard shooting gun to pene¬ 
trate their two-inch armor of feathers. 
Any man who swings a LEFEVER gun 
true on a quartering pair of geese does 
not question the result. He knows it— 
Two Clean Kills 
The reason Lefever Guns kill clean and 
sure and far is Lefever Taper Boring. 
It’s Lefever Taper Boring that gets the 
game. And you continue getting it with 
the same gun for a lifetime. Reasons: 
Lefever never-shoot-loose bolt, Lefever 
compensating screw on the hinge joint, 
Lefever simple three-piece action, and 
14 other original Lefever inventions. 
LEFEVER 
SHOT GUNS 
If you are a sportsman who values a 
gun for killing powers, send for free gun 
book and get Lefever wise. $28 to $1000. 
Owners of the $28 gun will not trade 
them for guns that cost twice as much.

quite cold, with snow flurries, the first regular shoot of

since the origin of our club. Nineteen members en¬ 
joyed the afternoon sport. After a very exciting shoot- 
off of two successive fives between Kamman and Philip- 
bar, the 1909 silver trophies were awarded Messrs. Wake¬ 
field, Kamman, Jax and Goetz.

Montclair Gun Club. 
Montclair, N. J., Jan. 8.—But four men showed up 
to-day, and as there was nothing special on, the men 
amused themselves by trying each other’s guns, and in 
consequence no very high scores were made. Frazee 
probably showed up best of all, breaking 19 out of his 
first 25. Van Tassell is a very good field shot, and did 
his best to let the target almost reach the ground before 
firing.
