FROM THE TIMES.

Most people have seen the average English Chairman, as soon as
a difficulty arises a little out of the beaten track, struggling in vain to keep
the meeting straight, and not only becoming hot and angry himself, but
probably causing like heat and anger all round him. Mr. Palgrave has tried
to make the ways of public meetings easy to such persons, and the burden
of chairmanship light. His position in the House of Commons gives him
authority, and he has received suggestions and aid from members of that
House possessing large experience in Parliamentary and local administration.
The result is a most useful and timely Handbook, setting forth the rules which
govern public meetings, and explaining and illustrating them so that they may
be understood and applied by any man of average capacity.
question which may reasonably be expected to arise from the mode of
electing a chairman, down to the happy time at which the business is settled
and the meeting adjourned, is left without a simple solution.

This volume, which has been prepared by Permission, is intended
to meet the demand for some means of ready reference to the Orders
of the Local Government Board. Six years. have elapsed since that
Board was constituted, and as its functions are not confined to Poor
Law administration, but extend also to the laws relating to Public
Health, Vaccination, and Education, its action has acquired a special
importance.
