[March 18, 1911. 
Y OU know mallards—wisest and wariest of all 
ducks - Solomons of the air. You can’t knock 
down mallards with a paddle nor can you get them 
with a gun that plasters its shots all over the face 
of creation. 
A mallard shot is generally a long shot, and long 
shots require a hard-shooting, close-shooting gun. 
That’s why the long-headed man who goes to a 
mallard country takes a Lefever. When he swings 
it on a towering pair of mallards he does not ques¬ 
tion the result. He know it— 
TWO CLEAN KILLS 
The reason a Lefever kills clean and sure and 
far is Lefever Taper Boring. 
But if you buy a Lefever for the taper boring 
alone, you will get more than your money’s worth. 
For instance, you will never be handicapped with 
looseness at the hinge joint. The exclusive Lefever 
screw compensates for a year’s wear by a trifling 
turn that you make yourself with a screwdriver. 
LEFEVER 
SHOT GUNS 
Sixteen other exclusive Lefever features and Lefe¬ 
ver simplicity and strength make the S28 gun the 
peer of any S50 gun on the market. Upwards to 
St,000. Send for free catalog and get Lefever wise.

“3 in One” Oil Has No Equal 
for oiling trigger, lock, every action part. Does 
not dry out quickly like heavier oils, gum, harden 
or collect dust no matter how long gun stands. 
“3 in One" cleans out the residue of burnt powder 
(black or smokeless) after shooting, leaving the 
barrel clean and shiny. It actually penetrates 
the pores of the metal, forming a delicate per¬ 
manent protecting coat that is absolutely 
impervious to water or weather* No acid.

UNCLE LISHA’S SHOP 
Life in a Corner of Yankeeland. By Rowland E. 
Robinson. Cloth. 187 pages. Price, $1.25. 
The shop itself, the place of business of Uncle Lisha 
Peggs, bootmaker and repairer, was a sort of sports¬ 
man’s exchange, where, as one of the fraternity ex¬ 
pressed it, the hunters and fishermen of the widely 
scattered neighborhood used to meet of evenings and 
dull outdoor days "to swap lies."

North Caldwell—Montclair. 
North Caldwell, N. J., March 11.—At our shoot to¬ 
day, the home team defeated the Montclair gunners by 
the close score of 412 to 411. Each man shot at 50 
targets, in two strings of 25. The boys from Montclair 
certainly put up a good fight, and it was a pleasure to 
beat such a fine lot of boys. Wm. Dutcher, of Passaic 
County Gun Club, was referee, and was on the job at 
all times. We go to Montclair some time next month. 
Team race:

Eagle Gun Club. 
Manoa, Pa., March 12. —The gunners who faced the 
traps at Manoa yesterday afternoon to participate in the 
weekly event of the Eagle Gun Club drew the hardest 
lot of birds which have been sprung this season. Al¬ 
most every other pigeon let loose was of the_ screamer 
variety, and the scores in consequence fell like a de¬ 
clining stock market. Only two of the ten men managed 
to get all of their birds—Sharon and Bivens—who divided 
the high gun cash. . 
Veteran Jack Brewer was also a possible straight, but 
he drew a “whizzer” on his last round and that spoiled 
his record. Murphy also got a 9 score, losing his first 
'in addition to the mid-weekly shoot on Wednesday, 
there will also be a 50-bird match between W. Bivens 
and W. Steller. Scores:

Slock Exchange Championship. 
Gunners of the New York Stock Exchange who had 
finished among the first ten in the Exchange champion¬ 
ship event on Feb. 25, competed in two special shoots on 
the grounds of the Westchester Country Club on Sat¬ 
urday, March 11. The conditions were 200 targets in 
each event, the first open to the five leading men in the 
championship, and the other for those in the second five. 
Stuart Scott, with a total of 178, proved an easy winner 
in the first shoot, leading by 19 points. The second 
division high gun was Howard Whitney, who broke 160.

Mountain View Gun Club. 
Cincinnati Gun Club. 
There was not as large an attendance at the shoot on 
March 12 as had been promised, but the weather was 
dubious, and some were kept away on this account. As 
it was, only seven men were present, but they kept 
things moving most of the afternoon. Hammersmith was 
high gun with 93; he is getting back into the game, and 
his long rest has not lessened his skill with the scatter 
gun. R. Trimble was present, and of course put up a 
good score, as he always does, getting in second place 
with 91. J. Schreck did pretty well, but not such work 
as he often does. Bird was in better trim than at the 
previous week’s shoot. 
A special effort will be made to get out a crowd on 
March 19, but it will amount to little for the officers to 
try and push things unless they have the backing of 
the members, and that means that every one who cares 
to shoot should attend on the regular club days.
