That is being polite, or, as the big folks say; when they have races, that is being "sportsman-like," and that that is the finest thing in the world to be really "sportsman-like" at all times. "Go on! Go on!" cried Daddy Blake. "Don't stop, children! Finish out the race!" But Hal and Mab were getting a little tired now, though the race was such a short one. Gradually Hal was skating ahead.
The mackerel are gone, the bluefish are going, the menhaden are gone, every year the amberjack and kingfish grow smaller and fewer. We must find ways and means to save our game fish of the sea; and one of the finest and most sportsman-like ways is to use light tackle. Wiborn, the Lone Angler, is also in a class by himself. To my mind Wiborn is the ideal angler of the sea.
"Under the circumstances, as my opponent objects, and as we all wish to prevent hard feelings, why not give him a chance as well? If he wins I shall be satisfied." A shout of approval greeted Tad's suggestion. This was the real sportsman-like spirit, and it appealed to them. The proposition was agreed to. But again the Mexican lost.
Merton put on serious and sportsman-like airs as he questioned me, and it was evident that he expected to add largely to our income from the game he should kill.

Gisborne had none, and was in a black humour accordingly. He was coming home, having his gun loaded, sportsman-like, when little Mignon crossed his path, just as he turned out of the wood by Bridget's cottage. Partly for wantonness, partly to vent his spleen upon some living creature. Mr.
I will admit that that doesn't sound like sportsman-like fighting, but unfortunately we're not to be employed against a really civilized enemy in this war. It isn't a popular role to which I am going to assign you, but you will run slowly past me and represent a fleeing enemy. Then you will give him the kidney thrust, taking care to make your aim exact.
The hunting of Taher Sherrif and his brothers was superlatively beautiful; with an immense amount of dash there was a cool, sportsman-like manner in their mode of attack that far excelled the impetuous and reckless onset of Abou Do.
