Regulations to try and keep these
apprentices in order were frequently
passed during the eighteenth century
First, the apprentices were forbidden
to wear knives. Then there were
laws made which made it a crime to
cry Clubs" in the street, since this
was the signal for a free-for-all fight

of a group of three at Pompeii, that
marvellous Roman city which was
burned under ashes and lava in an ,

its temples and its shops. The public
