This last excuse has done much to make
selfish, idle, unhandy members of an older
society, and should be remMintiered. in its

bad, at her kneo. Occupation makes hap

kick it at once, and he never thoaght of
running with it. If the other side conic
knock it out of his hands before he mak'-
his kick, it was all light It went iu the
game. The only thing about it that wa.»
at all rough was the k.;king. Sometimes
two fellows would kick a: the ball at th»
