TO CORRESPONDENTS.
1— “ Copy ” (the technical name of MSS. sent to the press) must be written on only one side of the paper. 2 — Write on sheets of paper which are neither small enough to be scrappy, nor large enough to be cumbrous on the printer's case. 3— Leave plenty of space in margin and between lines for your own and editorial corrections. 4— Use white paper rather than blue; because the writing* stands out more distinctly. 5 — Use ink, and black ink — for the same reason. 6— Write plainly. Distinct penmanship is an immense desideratum with both editor and printer. 7 — .Number your pages of MSS.
The Secretaries of Racing, Rowing, Cricket, Football, Tennis, Polo, Yachting, Bicycle, Dramatic— in short of any and every kind of Athletic, Sporting, and Dramatic Clubs are cordially invited to send us any information that may be of interest to the public and of use in furthering their interests. The Editor will at all times be willing to do his best to answer any questions or decide any disputes on matters of sporting or general interest. In every case correspondents must enclose their correct names and ~ addresses (but not for publication), as no notice whatever can be taken of anonymous communications.
To oblige Sporting friends at a distance, the result of important races will be wired immedialely after they are run on receipt of a letter containing instructions, and 2s. in stamps.
