There is no more room in business and social lift than on the tennis courts or the gridiron for braggarts, alibi artists, quitters, and cutthroat tactics. The world realizes that the man who sneaks his golf ball out of the rough may be depended upon to take an unfair advantage in business — and it avoids him. The Code of a Good Sport, which has been much-quoted and which applies in business ami social relations as well as in games and athletics, is one which Grantland Rice, noted sports writer, wrote some time ago tor the American Magazine. It contains ten commandments worthy of reprinting: 1. Thou shalt not quit. Thou shalt not alibi. Thou shalt not gloat over winning. Thou shalt not be a rotten loser. Thou shalt not take unfair advantage. Thou shalt not ask odds thou art not willing to give. Thou shalt not always be ready to give thine opponents the shade. Thou shalt not underestimate an opponent nor overestimate thyself. Remember that the game is the thing and that he who thinketh other- wise is a slacker and not a true sportsman. 10. Honor the game thou playest for he who playest the game straight and hard, winneth even when he loseth. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. H. S. MINER, M. D. General Practitioner Green Mountain, Iowa DRS.
