And now was seen the base-ball bat and tennis racquet and other instruments of war, used by the natives of the land in contending with the inhabitants of other countries. And many of the band girded up their loins and went forth upon the field to gain honor for their comrades and did appear great in the eyes of their fellow men. And those that did make the team were puffed up in the pride of their hearts and did shake themselves by the hands many times and say : Verily, verily we say unto you we are the people, we are all wool and a yard wide, and there are no flies on us.'l But the time was now at hand for the second great pass-over called the final exams. And the band did bone hard and make the fur Hy, for their enemies oppressed them sorely. And after the feast of the pass-over the band was filled with great joy and thanksgiving, for of the whole company only four were found unworthy and cast into outer darkness Cthe class of Ninety-ninej. Now was the day come for the band to separate and each-man to go unto his own country. And the day was the end of the first year. And after the lapse of three months the band was again united and the day was the beginning of the second year. And now there came into the country an enemy who persecuted and oppressed the youths and whose yoke was like unto an iron rod. And his name was called Will. And they did so esteem this same Will, surnamed the Beloved, that they did attempt to drive him from his habitation by an infernal machine, and by bricks and by clubs tormented they him. But it is hard to kick against the pricks, the mighty shall prevail in the end. For upon the next great feast of the pass-over nearly one-half of the band were judged unworthy, and great was the grief of the whole company g the liunkers mourn- ing, for their marks would not be comforted. And the band grew and thrived and their presence was felt throughout all the land, for they brought' forth many great warriors and wise men. Of the foot-ballites pro- duced they three, of the base-ballites produced they two, and their orators and honor men were many. But their lords blessed CPD the band and said : Foolish are they that boneth not, for they shall flunk, and the flunker shall not see his sheep-skin. Here endeth the lesson.
