To punch or not to punch is one Of
the most difficult questions in life.
There is an etiquette of punching. but
it does not always help man much
when the contingency arises and he
is forced to decide on the spur of the
moment whether he will or not When
the lie is given or certain opprobious
epithets are personally applied ELI
quette calls for punch. This is sup
posed to be the irreducible minimum
of punching. without the use of which
no man can go through life holding his
head erect. Beyond this irreducible
minimum man may suit his taste,
his disposition and his temper in the
use of his fist, within certain limits,
without violating the proprieties or
mourning disapproval as bully There
are many optional punches, so to
speak. on which the world looks with
approval besides these two compul.
sorry punches. The punch chivalrous,
for instance, the weapon of modern
knight errantry, in defense of the dis
tressed maids and matrons is of the
optional but approved sort.
