Among the many souvenir cards of greeting sent the Gun Editor is to be noted a photo of Fred Gilbert's seven-year-old son, Thomas Marshall Gilbert, showing how he celebrated the New Year. The successful combination is a bunch of pigeons, a twenty gauge Parker Hammerless, some boxes of
Winchester-Du Pont shells and last, but not least, a bright-eyed boy who inherits his father's skill. How about Annie Oakley Gilbert ? Does she take after her illustrious namesake is what we all want to know ?
Gilbert had the high average for 1907 and Crosby was 2nd; both shooting Parkers.
