Chapter I.

Bill Buddle's sole education had been thrust upon him at a boxing school, and when he reached the intelligence front in the battle of life, he successfully encountered the situation by using his head instead of his hands.

In the inevitable conflict with his intellectual superiors, he simply sidestepped their wily mental moves by exploiting the psychological side of the subtle art of self-defence.

Whatever Bill could not understand, he explained fully. Whatever he fully explained, everybody accepted unconditionally.
