To sum up, captaincy is a post of bonour, demanding unremitting attention, and the expenditure of an immense amount of enthusiasm. As the captain is zo will the side tend to be; if he is slack, slackness will almost surely per

vade the whole team.

He went to Ernest Jones, the big Aus tralian; who took so many wickets that season and told him to bowl, at one end and he would take the other, adding that. With a good bowler at one end and myself at the other, i might be able to diddle two or three of the out.".

I have mentioned these various incid- ents, inken quite at random to show that captaincy will help materially, in the winning of cricket matches. The leader of a side will not regard it as part of his duty to we how many runs his side can get his job to know when he has collected enough to avert defeat, and then in set about the task of getting the other men out as cheaply as possible.

A fast man and a slow in combin tion, or a right and left handed howler working together, will provide plenty of trouble for batsmen, even if the bowlers are not absolutely at the top of their. elass. They compel them to be mareful.

A captain should never tire his bowlers by keeping them on too long at a time. Of course, if they are getting wickets fairly regularly it would be folly to move them too often, but a bowler is not a mechanical apparatus capable of going on for hours without tiring.
