The jewjit classes 'started to. fall off and' the great Japanese man killers went back to answering the tinkle of the hotel clerk's bell. It was all for . a cause. Jewjit was all right so long as the man you attempted to put it over was paralyzed or asleep. : When the vic tim whose nQck was to be broken hap pened to be awake the putting on of the jewjit holds was as hard a task as riding a Montana cow pony with a cockle burr under the saddle. Rude, rough persons who did not know, and were not afraid of the bone breaking Jewjit had a way of slapping the whis kers off the chins of the men who galled toward' them, eyes aglare and arm extended for the deadly thrust of the upright i thumb in the short ribs. : , .... Too many jewjit artists encountered the afdeaway punch. The deadly neck hold was hard to place on some coarse villain who stepped in close and crossed oyer with his right. Jewjit might do for settling class row3 at Vassar, but when it came, down to de ciding debates with cabbies, delivery men and half illuminated timber jacks jewjit was about as effective as stab bing them in the ear with a slice of angel cake.

That is why we hear no more- of t the tej-rible Ilishkigji of Ja pan. It would not even stop savate, the French attack, and that was shown up years ago when Tommy Ryan took one of these kickers and pounded him When one mentions jit jitsu these days just make a mental note that he has just arrived from the district of the great northwest.
