The way to win strength.

The Romans won their empire by at
tacking their enemies one by one. Be.
sides this, they did not attack a new
enemy until they had conquered the
old enemy They went farther still
and like the English In conquering In
dia used their late enemies, and this
is what we should do in learning and
practicing games and athletics. 1t is
of little nse to try to conquer the whole
empire at once. First conquer n part
and make 1t your own. Then; proceed
to a second. part and conquer that;
and, IL you can, let the parts which
you have already conquered help you
to conquer fresh parts.-Eustace II.
