SPORTSMAN SHIP
The thing that distinguishes a geuine sports-
iman from a “bum sport” is that those who have
the spirit of sportsmanship not only know how
ito win gracefully, but how to lose uncomplaining-
ly. The difference between a genuine sportsman
and the other kind is that your real sportsman
/never tries to shift the responsibility for his
/failure upon somebody else.
We have long believed that the sporting
attitude toward life is the soundest of all philos-
ophies of living. Try your best to win, but if you
Hose don't be too quick to blame somebody else
for your failure. Nine times out of ten, people
get whatever rewards their individual ability,
character and industry entitle them to. But it
Is our observation, also, that about nine times
out of ten the man who fails is ready to lay the
iblame upon the Government, or the capitalists,
or the boss, or anybody else but himself.
The true sportsman never knows when he is
licked. He never accepts defeat as final, but
continues to strive to the end of the game. He
observes the rules of the game rigidly. If he
doesn't like them, he may try to have them
changed, but so long as the rules are as they are, j
he follows them. |

FIRST NATIONAL BANK
After “The Birth of a Nation”—
what?
“The Cabin in the Cotton,” Richard
Barthelmess’ latest starring vehicle
for First National, which comes to the
Rialto Theatre soon, attempts in epic
style to tell the story of wha't hap-
pened to tbe great American inland
empire known familiarly as . “Tbe
South.” after it was “born.”
America, in spite of democracy, does
have “'classes.” as this picture shows.
Plantersa and “share-croppers.” ruling
class and negroes, are all shown here
as they are today, a heterogeneous
mass of mixed humanity all working
out their individual destinies against
the 'background of the new and fast-
awakening south, though retaining
much of the romantic sweetness of
the “old” South.
It is not, however, a “problem”
nlav. Vivid drama vies with light-
hearted comedy, and startle tragedy
with the gaiety of the colored, flows
throughout the movie. Tn it is the
pnssion of the hot-headed planters,
the “aristocrats” of the south: the
deep suffering of the “noor whites.”
the hapniness and revelry of the
negro, are so ^xnertlv blended that
the story is told without the slightest
preachment.
Mrs. T. J. Davis Is

Mrs. T. J. Davis, who has been con-
fined to her bed for over a month, is
reported quite ill.
Mrs. Davis has been in poor health
for quite awhile. Her condition is
