Denison presided over the Annual General Meeting of the Cricketers’ Fund Friendly Society, held on Monday evening at Lord’s. The officers were re-ap­ pointed, and John Moss was elected on the Committee in place of William Gunn. During the past year £336 was paid in sick pay, but the Society had a net surplus on the year of £182 odd. In moving the adoption of the financial statement, Mr. Denison re­ ferred to the present scheme of deciding the County Championship, and expressed the opinion that it would not accomplish its intended object. In his view, it would not determine the best county, and certainly not the order of merit for the others. Lord Harris, who spoke on the same subject, sug­ gested that it would be well to see the result of the scheme. He was disposed to think it had produced results that otherwise would not have happened. Anything that en­ couraged brisk play was to be welcomed. The public called for it and county clubs could not ignore the public demands. He hoped that the Triangular contests for 1912 would not fall through because the South Africans and the Australians had not come to terms. THE ENCYCLOPAEDIA SPORT.* OF The second part of the first volume of the above work, which will be completed in about thirty numbers, is in every respect as good as the first issue, which we commented upon favourably recently. It is wrapped in a coloured cover depicting Spofforth on the point of delivering the ball. The subjects are dealt with in the Encyclop&dia in alpha­ betical order, and Patt II. contains chapters on Archery, Anglingand Automobilism. The number includes dozens of excellent illustra­ tions in addition to two coloured plates, and consists of 80 pages. Every effort has been made to deal with the various subjects thoroughly and in an interesting manntr, and so far with pronounced success. * Vol. I., Part 2 of The Encyclopaedia of Sport. London : Wm.
