Cricket 1911

J uly 22, 1911. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 365 To Our Readers. All papers want increased circulations. That may be accepted as an axiom. Those in control of them go to work—if they do go to work —in different ways to achieve their desire. Advertising is one way, and a very obvious one ; but advertising has its limits, and besides is so extensively practised to-day that in the case of a journal it has to be done on a very large scale to attract much attention. We admit frankly that full-page advertise­ ments in the leading dailies are beyond our means, and we doubt if smaller ones have much result. But the best way of all, if only that way can be taken, is to get the help of one’s readers. This is possible, to any great extent, only where a sentiment of good-fellowship exists between the conductors of a paper and the buyers of it. We believe that that sentiment exists in the case of Cricket. Not a week but brings us a number of letters expressing the gratification of their writers at the improvement recently made in the paper. The feeling of those who write is unmistakably friendly. The paper—the only one of its kind in the world —means something to them beyond what most papers mean. May we ask them to help ? It is nothing difficult we require—only that they should recommend Cricket to their friends. If anyone would care to have specimen copies to distribute, a line to the Manager will bring a supply. But much may be done with less trouble than that. Mention the paper ; say that you like i t ; suggest that your friend—we take it for granted he, too, is a cricket enthusiast —will like it also if he only gives it a trial. We shall be happy indeed if every reader could and would get us one more reader. That would double our circulation at one coup. But something short of that will content us. You, who read this, will you see about getting us just one reader— and never mind whether the others are doing likewise ? M r . F. BEVILL. With much regret we announce the death at Avoca Street, Randwick, Sydney, on June 2nd, of Mr. Frederick Bevill, M.A., who was for some years the Australian correspondent of Cricket. He was a very fair player in his younger days, and was well-known as a dramatic critic. CO RNW ALL v. DEVON.—Played at Penzance on July 7 and 8 and won by Devon by an innings and 104 runs.

The bibrarv}. (All Publications intended for review in “ Cricket" must be addressed to the Editor.) Messrs. Spalding did an admirable thing when they asked Mr. F. F. Kelly, of New York, to edit their Cricket Guide * for he is everywhere recognized as the chief authority in America on the game. The result of his work is that the Guide contaius more matter and covers a larger field than ever before, and as the publication is well arranged and profusely illustrated it should prove of use not only to the follower of the game in America but to those whose duty it is to write about it. The section devoted to Canadian cricket has been somewhat curtailed owing to the question of space, but as the game is going ahead so rapidly in the Dominion just now, this will no doubt be remedied in future issues. *The Official Cricket Guide, 1911 —E dited by F.

La belle forme montree par la plupart des grands joueurs de notre federation nous permet d’aligner contre la Hollande une des meilleures equipes que nous ayons jamais eue. Le fielding ne peut etre qu’excellent, le bowling est varifi et pour la premiere fois depuis que nous jouons ces matches, le batting est vraiment bon. Six de nos batsmen ont deja fait plus de cent en un innings et tous, a part Wright et Worthington, connaissent le bowling hollandais. Si nos voisins ne viennent pas avec ce qu’ils ont le mieux, le lutte pourrait etre passionnante, comme elle le fut l’an dernier a Haarlem. En designant A. Gummery comtne arbitre, l'on a recompense un devoue que l’on se plait a reconnaStre comme un des meilleurs “ umpires.” L ’equipe qui sera commandee par le comte Joseph d’Oultremont comprendra, outre son capitaine: G. Alpen, W. S. Maxwell, J. Mac Farlane, F. Wright. F. Bartlett, A. Daumerie, R. F. Worthing­ ton, G. Lewis, O. B. Knight et R. Clayton. Reserves: F. Smith, W . J. Fowler et J.
