ICE SHOOTING FINE
ON DELAWARE RIVER
Ducks Are Plentiful and
Many Gunners Are
Out

Duck shooting on the Delaware River
has been exceptionally good for the
past few days and many gunners have
taken advantage Of Il.
The particular sport which is in
dulged in at present is what is known
as ice shooting. To be successful at
this hunters go out in the stream
among the ice foes Ia boats painted
white and the men themselves are at
tired in white clothing, their faces being
concealed by white mask. The ul-
most precaution must be observed in
order not to alarm the ducks which are
floating up and down on cakes Of ice
as the slightest noise of boat crushing
the ice will cause them TO up and away
In alarm. BY means OF the white boat
and white attire OF the gunners il is
possible TO approach within a few
yards OF a flock OF ducks before they
are aware Of the presence OF a strange
body.
The shooting is especially good of
Delaware City and many fowls have
been bagged In that vicinity Yesterday
Harry Clark of that place brought down
nine ducks and two wild geese. Albert
Messick got six. while Samuel Arm
strong and his son got twenty-seven
sprig-tails and black duck.
