Notes. 
On Sept. 11 Emory H. Storr was with us and shot in 
good form. His 93 cheered him up. 
On Sept. 25 we had three members of the cloth with 
us, and all of the M. E. Church, viz., Messrs. Barnes, 
Wright and Shipley. The boys were glad to have them 
with us. Rev. Barnes is one of our most respected 
members, and if he is not present, the boys do not fail 
to inquire for him. 
On Sept. 25 the conditions were such that none of the 
boys could make good scores. That was the day the 
telegraph wires were all grounded, and I presume all of 
us had our wires crossed.

“BRUSH SHELLS 
99 
A Big Boon to Bird Shooters 
Winchester “Brush’’ Shells long ago passed the 
experimental stage. They have stood the tests of 
the most critical bird shooters and have won their 
enthusiastic endorsement. They not only help 
wonderfully to make big bags when used in any 
gun, but they enable a sportsman to use a full 
choked trap or duck gun for bird shooting and get 
as good results as a brush gun would give. Re¬ 
member the big even spread of shot that Winchester 
“Brush” Shells give is obtained without the loss of 
velocity or penetration—the all important factors in 
a good load. Winchester “Brush” Shells are loaded 
in Leader and Repeater cases and are sold by 
dealers everywhere.
