completed, and will be ready for the Eastern Handicap 
in July. A big shoot will be held on July 1, as a sort 
of preliminary to the big contest. Nearby clubs will be 
invited to send teams that day.

The Fred Macaulay Business Men’s Gun Club 
Newark, N J., Tune 6.—Members of the Fred Macaulay 
Business Men’s Cum Club enjoyed their sport between 
showers at the Speedway traps to-day, although it was 
dreadfully dark, with the rain interfering, making ac¬ 
curate shooting almost impossible. Exceptionally good 
results were obtained. Wm. Trowbridge was high gun, as 
well as high average gunner. He was the only marks¬ 
man who managed to break 25 straight and breaking 153 
white fliers out of a possible 175. William Wayne was 
a close second with 151, and B. M. Shanley, Jr., was 
third with 127. The following are the shooters and their

THE HUNTER ARMS CO., 90 Hubbard St., Fulton, N. Y. 
The latest product exemplifying Smith Gun perfection is our 
20 -Gauge Hammerless —just out—and almost as light as a feather. 
In reality it weighs from Sf to 7 lbs. It shows what can be done 
in making a fine gun at a low price. It is simply all gun and no frills. 
T HE mechanical precision of the adjustment of 
a Hammerless Smith Gun approximates perfec¬ 
tion. By reason of it a Smith Gun cannot shoot 
loose. The longer you shoot it the tighter it gets. And so by 
far the greater number of your gun-troubles are eliminated. 
NEVER in the long history of gun-making has there been made so great 
an improvement as the Hunter One-Trigger attachment, which can be 
put on all Smith Guns. It stands for the greatest accuracy—and is 
helping to make world’s records. Your dealer should be able to tell you 
all about it. So will our new and handsomely lithographed Catalogue, 
which you may have on request.

RODMAKING FOR BEGINNERS 
By PERRY D. FRAZER 
A unique work, bringing the science of rodmaking up to the very moment and 
epitomizing the knowledge and the experience of experts for the guidance of the 
average man. The evolution of bait-casting principles has made Mr. Frazer’s book 
supersede all previous publications on the subject. 
Every angler—young or old—who is fond of adapting his rods and tackle to his 
own ideas of what they should be, will find in this book a large fund of information 
gathered by the author in years of study, experiment and practical experience in 
fishing, tournament casting and at the work bench. He theorizes and speculates 
.not at all. He tells “’the how” of everything connected with rodmaking in a way 
that makes results certain. All explanations are simple and easily followed. 
Separate chapters are devoted to each of a half dozen types of bait-casting rods; 
to tarpon, surf and light salt water rods; bass and trout, salmon and tournament 
fly-rods. Complete specifications of well known types are given, and the chapter 
on split bamboo rodmaking is the most comprehensive treatise on the subject ever 
published. Indispensable in the angler’s library. 
Cloth, 180 pages, four full-page illustrations, 6o working drawings, making plain 
every feature of the text. Postpaid, $i.

ANGLING MEMORIES 
Seasonable Books for the Sportsman’s Library 
MEN I HAVE FISHED WITH MY ANGLING FRIENDS 
Both by FRED MATHER 
These two volumes are a source of endless delight to the fisherman. They 
deal with every phase of the gentle sport from bent pins and willow poles to 
salmon flies and special rods—with every kind of fish as well. 
They are full of a quaint philosophy, written with a rare appreciation of human 
nature, and comprising sketches of angling “characters” as well as well-known men 
who were Mr. Mather’s brethren of the angle. Much of other sport and adventure 
beside fishing will be found between the covers of these books. These two large, 
splendidly bound, splendidly printed, and richly illustrated volumes of 400 pages 
each regularly sell for $2 each. While they last we offer 
Both together, postpaid, for $3.00 v
