CHAPTER VI.
THE SIOMiss TILTS
The day being all that could be sle-
eked, and the interest on both sides
intense, it was a crowd the like of
which had never been seen before at a
football match' in Carrborogh that
gathered thick in the park as half•past
two drew near. The goals had been
erected and the field measured the
night before, and pretty red and blue
flags fluttered daintily . around the
touch -line.
The interest of the crowd was first
attracted to the south goal, where the
liquor men were holding a preliminary
• practice, the Temperance boys not
having yet put in an appearance.
Blair had done his best properly to
All the vacant place on his left, get-
ting a man named Hardisty, strongly
ecommended by one of his outside
players, but unknown personally to
himself. He watched and tested this
man carefully in the preliminary play,
pronounced him first class, and faced
the coming contest with quite as bitter
a determination to win as Tom him-
self.
Bryan was there, taking a lively in-
terest in whatever concerned the
match. So were Houston, Simmons
and Farnday, all important representa-
tives of the "liquor interest," and
many a lesser light besides.
The boys had their supporters too,
_:,_ in perhaps larger numbers„ but many
of them were of a quieter turn than
those sympathizing with their oppon-
' 1S •ants. But the High School was out in
full force and there, almost to a man,
t `• • were ready to do any amount of cheer-
ing for their own team.
The time for starting is at hand, and
" """'there is a ripple of applause from the
other end as the school boys chase one
another and the ball on the field, and
commence a fewractioe kicks at the
opposite goal. Tom and Frank, how-
ever, are engaged in earnest talk,
standing somewhat apart from the
rest. They are taking in,as far as pos-
sible, the strength of their opponents,
and deciding the arrangement . of the
team accordingly.
"Blair is in fine shape, Frank," said
Tom, who had been critically taking
in that individual's playing.
"He looks to me like grim death,"
replied Frank. "If we get all he wishes
us to -day, we'll have the worst whip-
ping ever school boys got."
"A pretty big-lookinlot of fellows
for a pack of schoolboys," eyeing the
fine proportions -of some of the men
under Blair's command.
"I'm often more afraid of the little
ones than the big ones," answered
Frank. "Do you see that small man
that has just kicked for the goal,
Hardisty is his name. I know him. 1
wish you would let me face him. That
fellow is as full of dodges as a fox. I
wouldn't like to see a boy opposite him
who didn't know his tricks.'
"All right," answered Tom, and left
to consult
Blair about the toss up.
The captain of an adjoining county's
foot ball club was chosen by mutual
consent to act as referee, and soon his
whistle caused the teams to line up.
Blair having won the toss, the liquor
men kicked first with the wind.
The two teams presented a novel
appearance. On the one hand were
the heroes of the liquor interest, drawn
up in correct line, all men; most of
them not small men, and evidently.
picked by one. who had an eye, to et-
ficiency rather than merely to show.
Facing them in perfect order were
the schoolboys, a really active -looking
lot of lads, but light in build, to a man,
with the one exception of Joe Wald-
ron, "a tower of strength," as Frank
reassuringly told his companion.
But the whistle blows, and captain
Tom sets the ball in motion for the
Temperance boys. It did not take
long to see that the match was going
tc be a close one. It was evident, not-
withstanding the superior weight of
the liquor team, that the boys .were
determined to fight hard for their
cause, and knew well how to do it.
At first the ball was kept well up at
the liquor goal. Tom and Frank, with
clever little Charlie as their efficient
helper, pressed it hard, and but, for
Cooper's splendid play in goal, would
have made more than one score in the
first ten minutes. Then a heavy kick
from a big, brawny Scotchman, sent
the ball 'with a whizz that was almost
followed by thunder, clear to the
end of the field, and with an aim so
true that there would have been a
score at once had not Tom's goal -keep-
er stopped it. There was a rousing
cheer at this fine bit of play, which
put fresh life into the liquor side. The
ball in its passage back was taken pos-
session of by Blair, who soon had to
send it t Hardisty. That little play-
er, justifying Frank's account of him,
ran clean -away with it, and bid fair
to score. It was only the exceeding
activity of Tom's "backs" that kept
him from his purpose. During the
next ten minutes, Blair, Dickinson and
Hardisty kept sending it back and
back again on Torn's goal, till the sweat
began to roll off his brow, not from
work, but from excited anxiety, feel-
ing that both boys Couldn't stand it
long. At last a splendid kick from Joe
Waldron relieved the defending party,
and sent the hall away off to the mid-
dle of the field.
"Now's our chance," shouted Frank,
as Tom secured it.
"Now boys, we'll do it," he cried,
and started a run that meant success.
Once he.had to pass to Frank, but he
was ready and continued the run,
three times dodging an intended check
so as to leave a burly antagonist pro-
strate behind him.
As he neared the goal, beset by three,
he pass the ball back again to Tom,
who, sOth a force that was not going
to be withstood, drpve it straight be-
tween the posts, upsetting Cooper at
the same time.
A mighty cheer from the schoolboys
and their supporters rent the air.
After a few minutes' pause, Blair
kicked off again, determined to regain
the lost ground., He was now fully
aware of the fact that the schoolboys
were going to offer no "snap" to his
men, and renewed hostilities in a way
that showed he was going to throw all
his skill and weight into the issue.
Half time was rapidly approaching he
.knew, and after that the boys would
have the wind in their favor.
The ball was about the middle of the
Aeld as lie enquired, of the. referee bow
Much longer they had to play;
"Four minutes,"replied Hist worthy,
briskly.
There was PO time to be,lost. With
one of those superhuman efforts that
often characterize .decisive moments,
, he secured the ball, and before Tofu
and hie follows. were fu y awake to
what 'vas happening, the deafening
shouts of the liquor men told that
they had equalized the score.
A minute later, and half-time was
called.
Then followed the usual rest of tett
minutes. Tom called for water for his
boys, thus giving Bryan a chance to
air his wit on the "water rats," while
he snpplied his own men with refresh-
lwents'irom a well-filled bottle.
Blair was excited and angry, said
little, and drank a good deal.
Hardisty laid a hand on his arm.
"If I were you," he said, "I would
leave that alone till we're through."
"Mind your own business," replied
the other gruffly, "I'll shoo myself if
we don't whip these boys."
"Then I wouldn't make a muddle of
myself drinking whiskey too soon."
But Blair was not accustomed to
taking counsel that was not of his own
giving.Besides he felt as if he needed
something to put extra force into his
own feet, so he deliberately took an-
other glass.
"Line up," called the referee, and
again the opposing ranks faced each
other, and the ball is in motion. The
liquor men, stimulated by what they
had just taken, rushed forward upon
the Temperance goal, and commenced
a hot siege on that fortress, • which
lasted some time with almost no inter-
mission.
Tom was truly proud of his boys to
see the way they worked, but glad in-
deed when Waldron was again able,
with one Of his well -aimed kicks, to
remove the ball to the other end of the
field.
Ten minutes more of exceedingly
lively play, mostly this time about the
liquor goal, but the score was still even.
But Frank marked with interest that
Cooper, who had certainly played well,
was getting "used up."
There were now only ten minutes•
left. Was it going to be a draw. How
Toni did want that it should be a . vic-
tory! •
"Tom," Frank shouted, "one more
good run up on your goal and we make
a score! There's play."
The ball was coming, Frank got it,
but pressed by Hardisty, had to pass it
to Tom. Blair and Dickinson were
both down on him, so he was fain to
pass it on to young Percival, standing
with two eyes like glowing coals only
waiting a chance.
0 how Tom enjoyed the way that
little hero started off down the field.
Frank was by this time well ahead,
ready to help if necessary, but Charlie
needed no help. More than once the
little player dodged a big one, with a
variety of interesting consequences to
the latter, and then with a rapidity that
surprised his friends as much as his
foes, the smallest player on the field
had made a second score for the school
boys.
Cheer after cheer went up from the
spectators. The Temperance sym-
pathizers, if they didn't talk quite so
loud, let it be known they could shout
quite as heartily as those supporting
the other side.
Again the ball was in motion, though
there could not have been more than
three minutes of time left. The�;,feei-
ing of the crowd almost seemed to be
that the match was over, but thepro-
longed cheering that had greeted Char-
lie's success quieted as all became con-
scious that everybody did not think
BO.
Frank Doy"Ie -Ira now secured the
ball and was rushing down the field,
while those who should have at least
tried to stop him seemed to have lost
their heads. But the brawney Scotch -
man and another . of the enemy's
"backs" drew up gloweringly in his
path and threatened mischief. Seein
he was not going to secure a clear pat
for him, he determined if possible to
find one for the ball, and, taking care-
ful aim, fired it obliquely between his
two adversaries, and with a force that
swept past Cooper's feeble attempt to
stop it. At that very moment the
town clock struck four.
The demonstrations that followed
need not be described. Tom did not
wait for more than the necessary
double cheer. Through the dense
crowd he elbowed his way, till he
reached clear ground, and never, even
after the foot ball, did he rush with
more impetuous swiftness.
Jack! to tell Jack!
Jack's boarding-house was not many
blocks from the park, and while the
cheers of victory were still following
each other from the crowd, Tom came
in sight of it.
What was his amazement to see a
well-known figure standing on the top
of the house, grasping the chimney„
with one hand and in the other frantic-
ally waving a slipper as if it had been
a union-jack,while his voice joined in
every cheer given by the crowd as if
he knew perfectly well what they were
cheeringfor.
"Ifulloa," shouted Tom, "hulloa
there! It's all right! Come down,
Jack! come down here, I' say, 3 to 1 1"
"3 to 1, didn't I know it! Three
cheers for the Temperance boys," and
had the crowd been round his feet, the
cheers could not have been given'with
more vociferous enthusiasm, while at
the tail end of the first hooray -ay the
slipper in his hand was launched into
the atmosphere in a way that com-
pletely baffled any subsequent attempt
to trace its flight. .
"Come down, Jack," shouted Tom.
"Don't you want to hear about it?
Come down."
He scrambled down, and which of
the two boys was the happier during
the few minutes that followed, could
never be ascertained.
That same evening there was a Tem-
perance meeting held in Jack Cleve-
land's sick -chamber. If its importance
were measured by the numbers in at-
tendance it might have been reckoned
a small affair. But if by the momen-
tum of exhuberant enthusiasm there
hove been few so worthy of considera-
tion.
Tom, Frank, Charlie Percival and
Waldron, these along with Jack him-
self, made up the sum total.
Mrs Burton forewarned her visitors
that she would allow them only one
hour, and if hey excited the boy much
she would they
to ask them to go
away sooner. To keep watch over her
charge, she stayed in the room herself;
and it is only fair to the old lady to
say that her own interest in the pro-
ceedings became so lively that she for-
got her warning about excitement, and

meeting could not be squeezed into the
small space now left moa but for the.
benefit of those specially interested a
summarized report is here appended.
Proposed' by Tow Sutherland. tie -
C41)404 b Frank Doyle, that the Tem-
perance Teague for 1891 take a fresh
start. Carried.
Proposed b ,Jack Cleveland, second-
ed by Joe Waldron, that.each of us,
during the holidays, in his own locali-
ty, work up a subordinate branch of
of our Temperance League for 1891, in
each case using, if allowed, the local
papers for publishing our lists; and
sending in a condensed report to ap-
pear each month in the Carrb..rough
Echo. Carried.
Proposed by Joe Waldron (who is
trying to win his third class certificate)
seconded by Charlie Percival, that
those of us who enter the Model after
the holidays -shall diligently recruit
among the modelites, making sure that,
each yo ung teacher shall go out of the
Model School a pledged- and active
Temperance worker. Carried.
Those members of the meeting who
should succeed in taking their certifl•
cotes were also appointed a committee
to take into consideration "How to
bell the cat."
Proposed by Tom Sutherland, most
heartily seconded by Frank Doyle,
that we add an eleventh leaf to our
pledge book, headed with a pledge
against Tobacco, with room below that
for ten signatures. . That whenever
possible we get each of our members
to sign both pledges,
p g but that we care•
fully keep the Tobacco pledge subor-
dinate and make no reference to it in
our printed lists.
IPoor Jack greeted this proposal with
prolonged and agonized groans, but
the enthusiasm of the hour, and espe-
cially a few strong words from Doyle,
deprecating the use of cigars either for
"a boy that doesn't want to learn to
drink or a man that wants to learn to
quit the drink," brought him over, and
he- held up his hand with the rest,
though it was done 'with the air of a
martyr and with a stage whisper into
Charlie's ear.
"I'm voting for the eleventh leaf,
but, take notice, I didn't put my name
to it•yet."
Proposed by Frank, seconded by
Ch rhe Percival, that some Temper-
anc erson, who cares to win boys to
the emperance side in a way that
. they' can be won, shall offer a Gold
Cup, to be competed for by none but
High School Temperance Foot Ball
Teams, each member of which teams
shall be pledged against liquor for at
least the period of one year.
The enthusiasm with which this was
carried proved too much for Mrs Bur-
ton, deeply interested though she was.
"Boys, boys," she cried, as soon as
the rounds of applause had moderated
so that her feeble voice could be heard,
"You'll kill this dear boy of mine, you
best go now and come back when he is
better."
She shook hands tremulously with
each one as they went out, and mur-
mured a fervent "God bless ye, lads,"
as they turned from her door. With
all their uproarious spirits, I don't
think the feeble words were either un-
heard or unheeded.
Then she went back into her own
room to quiet herself a little, the tears
softly trickling down her cheeks.
"0 those blessed boys,"she mur-
mured. "With all their cranks and
games, I do believe they'll do more to
shut up these gin shops than all�the
Temperance lecturers from her to
Jer icho."
