Would you ever permit any part of your person in front of the muzzle of your gun? 6. If hunting in brush or thicket, would you shoot if you saw a move- ment of the brush? It seems to us if all applicants were given a good quiz along this line, it would save many lives and limbs.ââ O. S. Phillips. HUNTING ACCIDENTS.
