One had to have his wits about him, for it was a battle iu which mighty blow were struck on one side, and in which cunning was used on the other side a struggle between'insensate force and intelligence. I soon learned a bit. When breaker curled over my head, for a swift Instant I could See the light of day through ita emerald body; then down would go my head, and I would clutch the board with all my strength. Then would come the blow, and to the onlooker on shore I would be blotted out. In reality the board and I would have passed through the crest and emerged in the respite of the o'her side. I should not recommend the smashing blows to an invalid or delicate person. There is weight behind them, and the jmpaot of the driven water is like a sand blast.
