Canary islanders Who Would Have
Made Good Ball Players.
In this, age Of athletics one might
think that no people ever showed SO
much interest in feats Of muscular
might and skill as those who have per-
fected football. but modern games.
and even the games of the Greeks at
Olympia. may have been more than
matched by the sports Of peoples now
held in light esteem. We have the &C.
counts of excellent authorities for the
contention that the athletic training of
Canary islanders makes even the col
effeminate.
These islands came into subsection
to Spain about the time Columbus dis
covered America. The conquest was
due solely to the superiority Of Euro
pean weapons and not to better skill
and prowess. Native soldiers were
trained athletes developed under sys-
tenn that held athletic sports to be an
important business. like military drill.
Spanish chronicles have left accounts
Of sports of the islanders. From baby
hood they were trained to be brisk in
self defense. AS soon as they could
toddle the children were pelted With
mud balls that they might learn how
to protect themselves. When they were
boys stones and wooden darts were
substituted for bits of clay
In this rough school they acquired
the rudiments Of warfare which en-
abled them during their wars to catch
in their hands the arrows shot from
their enemies crOssbows.
After the conquest Of the Canaries a
native Of the islands was seen at Sc.
vile who. for a silver piece. let a man
throw at him as many stones as he
pleased from a distance of eight PAGES.
Without moving his left foot he avoid
ed every stone.
Another native used to defy any one
to hurl an orange at him with so great
| rapidity that he could not catch it.
Three men tried this. each with dozen
oranges. and the Islander caught every
orange. AS further test he hit his
antagonists with each of the oranges
