I was rather proud of my achievements, and pictured myself as being known to the few settlers in the neighborhood as a successful mountain-lion hunter.

I could not help grinning when I found out that they did not even allude to me as the Vice-President-elect, let alone as a hunter, but merely as "Johnny Goff's tourist." Of course during the years when I was most busy at serious work I could do no hunting, and even my riding was of a decorous kind.

But a man whose business is sedentary should get some kind of exercise if he wishes to keep himself in as good physical trim as his brethren who do manual labor.

When I worked on a ranch, I needed no form of exercise except my work, but when I worked in an office the case was different.
A couple of summers I played polo with some of my neighbors.

I shall always believe we played polo in just the right way for middle-aged men with stables of the general utility order.
