for know that he IS a born fighter
and that I am likely to have a tough

Most men when they are fghting
retain a certain amount OF discretion
and remember that brutal assault on
the police Is n very serious offense.
But the man with the gray eyes,
though he may IN his calmer moments
be quite aware Of the folly OF resist
ance, forgets all about that when bis
blood Is up. He thinks OF only one
thing, and that is to win the fight.
1T isn't among criminals only that
the gray eye denotes the fighter. 1
have observed the same thing among
professional pugllists, an enormous
proportion OF whom have gray eyes.
with soldiers and sailors II Is just
the same. Many OF our foremost gen
erals and admirals have eyes OF this
color II Is the more remarkable
when we remember that the number
Of people who have gray eyes is small

The moral is that when you are
