THE MATCH AT ATBURY..

The people of Atbusy wers vory proud of their football eleven and, with reason, for no match had been lost by them during that season, playing at least ous a week, jard but two had been drawn. And now the retun match with Brahan their most dangerous opponents was just over, with s victory for Athury, of five goals to threa, ard no more brilliant play had been shown throughout the year than that immediately hefore' ring was called when the winning twe goals had been gained. - A-knot of

of

enthusiasts had gathered round the players they walked back to the pavilion, con- gratulating the wingers and discussing lit le bits of tho play in a way usual en auch .acossions.

Among those was Hilton, the Captain the Brahaun Rugby team, a tall powerful man with a merry face, well-known and popular at at both towns. Well he anid, I don't think much of Sacker, I never did: but I think less of it after to-day then over."

Why came a choras of voices,

Seeing it was no good the Atbury men came und for a finnd serummage in goal, but they were shoved batte easily and this biy men walked the ball through with a oheer.

Hilton was greeted with combined chests and groang as he left the field-the groups from a cortoin section of the townspeople, bat the cheers were loudest, as wiping bis forehead he said: I know weight would tell, if the gashe was played properly; but any football must be a failure that has no "offside to speak of and no bar to kick over."
