In Scotland there is Scottish Sport and Scottish Cyclist; in Ireland, Sport and the Irish Cyclist; and, in fact,each district has its special organs. In addition to the general, the cycle events must—it is almost must, if publicity amongst wheelmen is desired—be advertised in Wheeling (152, Fleet Street), Cycling (Bouverie Street), Cyclist and Bicycling News (Coventry). It is thus easily seen that in this channel of expenditure money flows away freely. In all advertisements, forms, etc,, the secretary's name and address, date of closing entries, etc.,must be very clearly stated, and, indispensable legend, "Under A.A.A. Laws and N.C.U. Rules." The chosenhandicapper ought also, in fairness to entrants, to be named; it may also affect entries considerably.
