The assets were stated at .£12,588 10s 4d, and the liabilities at £920 18s 6d. Tho Chairman said the totalisator had not been abused so much in Canterbury during the past 12 months, because the country clubs were not so numerous as in other parts of tho Colony. During the past 14 years, the Club had spent £10,437 in improvements, £19,757 in salaries, and £133,722 in stakes. He indicated that it was probable the Club would * adopt the recently-invented totalisator.
