There Is an etiquette Of punching, but

Of punching, without the use of which
no man can go through life holding his
head erect. Beyond this irreducible
minimum a man may suit his taste
his disposition and his temper in the
use of his fist, within certain limits,
without violating the proprieties or
incurring disapproval as bully. There
are many optional punches, so to
