“Not a bit,” replied the other stoutly. “On the contrary, if a boy can
put on a pair of gloves and harmlessly pound another boy about a
bit–or get pounded about–it satisfies the desire for fistic encounter
that’s a part of every fellow’s make-up, and he’s a lot less likely to
be quarrelsome. Besides, Horace, it’s a fine exercise for the body and
brain and eyes.”
