Northern Kentucky Gun Club. 
Dayton, Ky.—The fifth of the club’s monthly money- 
back tournaments, held on Aug. 2S, was the most suc¬ 
cessful of the series. The weather could not have been 
better, and the attendance was good. Several out-of- 
town shooters were present, among them Ed. Cain and 
Ike Brandenberg, both members of the old guard from 
Dayton. The- program consisted of ten 15-target events, 
to^al entrance of $ 11 . which included $1 etxra for the 
money-back purse. The trophy for high average was a 
cut-glass decanter and one dozen glasses. Purses divided 
40, 30, 20 and 10 per cent. An optional $2 sweep on the 
entire program was divided 50, 30 and 20 per cent. George 
Dameron, one of the best of our local shooters, won high 
average with a score of 111 , which included a run of 86 . 
Out of the first 100 he broke 99. Ed. Cain was second 
with 142. Sampson is just getting back into the game, 
after a long rest, tie made a good fight for second 
place, but lost by 1 target, getting 141. 
The money-back system again proved all right, .even for 
a one-day shoot. The purse amounted to $47.95, and the 
losses to $34.54, leaving a surplus of $13.41. Ten of the 
shooters had to be helped in amounts ranging from $9.36 
to 96 cents. 
The club will be well represented at the tri-State shoot 
on Sept. 5 and 6 , on the Hyde Park grounds, and 
Dameron is going to make a big effort for the champion¬ 
ship and trophy. At the conclusion of the program a 
special event at 25 targets for the Hunter Arms Co.’s 
trophy was pulled off. H. R. Irwin was the winner with 
a perfect score. Woodbury, at 18yds., was second with 
23. Dameron’s handicap, 20yds., was a little too much 
for him. The scores:

Canvas Canoes and How to Build Them. 
By Parker B. Field. With a plan and all dimensions. 
Forty-eight pages. Price, 50 cents. 
This little book, written by an enthusiastic and prac¬ 
tical canoeist, who regards his favorite pursuit as far 
superior to bicycling, driving, riding or yachting for 
healthful exercise, is well worth reading by any one 
contemplating an outing. By careful attention to the 
instructions any man of ordinary mechanical talent may 
construct a good, serviceable canoe to carry 2C0 pounds, 
at a cost of six or seven dollars, and as the weight of 
such a canoe is given as only 35 pounds, it should well 
repay the cost of carriage to a lake or country. The 
book gives very precise instructions not only foi<* building 
the canoe, but for remedying all the injuries to which 
it is liable to be exposed. The instructions are very 
clearly given and the cost- of building is so low that it 
constitutes a great inducement to spend one’s outing in 
a lake country.

Two Clean Kills 
Y OU know quail—noisy winging bumble bees! 
They scared you green in your novice days 
as they broke from cover. They were 
almost out of range by the time you recovered 
and got your bearings. 
You know that sometimes, even to-day, you 
don’t get settled down until the whizzing birds 
are almost too far to reach. Then you wish for a 
gun that isn’t just “good enough”—wish for a gun 
that kills clean and far and sure. 
Any man who swings a Lefever true on a pair 
of quail at long range does not feel a heart flutter 
for the result. He knows it— 1'wo Clean Kills. 
The reason Lefever Guns kill clean and sure 
and far is Lefever Tafter Boring. 
Taper Boring is only one of 19 exclusive ad¬ 
vantages of 
LEFEVER 
SHOT GUNS 
Our catalogue will tell you of barrel rigidity 
and take-up Unequalled in any other gun. Also 
tells about other things you must know if you are 
to invest your money right. It is worth sending for.
