The pace of the proceedings allows time for courtesyâ€" tfor the fieldsmen to applaud a good innings played against them, for both sides to applaud when a ball is wellâ€" taken by the wicketâ€"keeper on the leg side of the stumps, and so forth. The symbol of club cricket is the tea urn, glittering in shafts of sunâ€" light on the pavilion table, at which both teams will be seated at five o‘clock. | "A decent crowd" is the opinion they form of each other before the day‘s play is out, and, when they meet again lateér in the season, it is as friends, with mutual recollections of how cld Soâ€"andâ€"So scored 60 or took three wickets for 12. Club cricketers have the most retentive memories for all that sort of thing. This "atmosphere" peâ€" culiar to club cricket, explains why, in a "home week" or a tour to climax the season. But, generally speaking, there is nothing particularly intense about this delightful form of the sport and results are of hardly any consequence whatsoever. There is nothing in the nature of a national interclub chamâ€" pionship, results are determined by the tirstâ€"inning scores, and very seldom inâ€" deed is a match played out to a finish. This form of the game has more adâ€". herents than any other. Club cricket, like the league variety, is also an affair of Sattirday afterâ€" mnicons, with whole day matches thrown in on Sundays and bank holidays and game, played on Saturday afternoons. The tempo is very different from that of the threeâ€"day matches customary in firstâ€"class cricket and the limitaâ€" tions of time are the concrolling facâ€" tor. As a consequence, league games provide "highâ€"pressure cricketâ€"and the crowd loves it. In county gamics the spectators take their pleasure someâ€" what differently. Their great delight is to bask in the sun from morning to evening and to watch at leisure the unâ€" icldment of a campaign. | Lancashire League cricket, in which professionals â€" figure prominently, as they do in the county championships, is, so to speak, a potted version of the recreation almost as popular as that of anticipating the selectors‘ choice for England‘s eleven against the South Afâ€" ricans. Considerable interest is shown, too, |m the competition for the counties |ranked as second classâ€"23 of them altogether. Some of the firstâ€"class ;counties’ second elevens take part in the minor counties championship with success. Last season, for example, Lancashire II won the tournament, with Surrey II as runnerâ€"up. The whole of English cricket has not been covered until we have touched upon league cricket, exceedingly popular in the North of England, club cricket, the backbone of the game, school cricket, a vitally important phase, and, latest deâ€" velopment of all, women‘s cricket now played and administered with great seriousness. ters Runs if it proves successful, according to the Industrial Department of the Canâ€" adian National Railwavs. | _ The discovery of a new textile maâ€" terial, a mixture of flax fibre and raw cotton, in England, is expected to have an important effect on the linen and cotton trades. The resulting material is known as "Merlin‘" and the process is being developed by a large Manchester cotton firm. Under the new proceéss, the fibre is extracted from the flax by machinery without the necessity of soaking or wetting.

That‘s just what one Englishman thinks of baseball. Nevertheless, there was a crowd out to see Scotland beat London, and perhaps some day in the not too distant future, baseball will make the strides in England that ice hockey has already made. "Just in case any of us were feeling confused, a man with a microphone tried to explain to us what it was all about.
