Inspectors of \ BILLIARD TABLES'/ i That’s what Alcock’s experts ought really i I to be called. There is an Alcock expert i in every centre: an attested specialist in \ \ Billiards and Billiard Tables. \ i The Alcock Expert periodically inspects all \ \ Alcock Tables in his district, free of charge. I \ Why ? \ \ Because Alcock’s interest in the man who i \ buys an Alcock Billiard Table does not cease 1 \ when the Table is sold. It begins there. I \ Alcock’s are juSt as intent on keeping old I \ patrons as they are in gaining new ones. 1 I An old client is the finest advertisement on I 1 earth —so long as he is kept satisfied. \ \ That is why Alcock’s make it their business 1 \ to give their patrons the fullest advantage of \ 1 \ the ripened experience and perfected know- I i ledge on which Alcock’s business is based. 1 i They give that advantage freely from the 1 I very day the Table is purchased. 1 That’s Business According to & the BILLIARD PEOPLE C.H’s-34 1 o

Have Pity on Your Gun I From anywhere in New Zealand it will only cost from 1/6 to 2/- for postage to send your Gun to The Colonial Ammunition Co., Ltd., Auckland. Full detailed estimate of cost of Repairs will then be submitted. If the prices are not right, the Gun will be returned at our expense. We make this offer because we are convinced that our work and charges will be entirely satisfactory. We have just converted a pin-fire Gun to central fire. This is the third converted in as many weeks. It was originally a flint fire muzzle-loader converted to cap fire, then made a breech-loading pin-fire. Now we have it converted to a central fire breech-loader. This gun must be fully 70 to 80 years old. Tf First-class Gunsmiths are retained by us. They can “brown” and “blue” black barrels, take dents out of barrels, re-stock, and tighten up breech so that there is no shake —in fact, make an old gun neiw. These Gunsmiths, being always on the spot, enable prompt execution of Repairs. Better work could not be done in England. IF If you are in Auckland call and inspect our Gunsmith Shop. Take the Mt. Eden Tram at foot of Queen Street. It reaches Mt. Eden Railway Bridge in five minutes. After leaving the Tram, turn to the left into Eden Street. OutShop is half a minute’s walk from Bridge, just past the big Timber and Joinery Mill. T Stock of Guns by Webley and Scott, Ltd., R. B. Rodda and Co., and other well-known makers always on hand.
