Proceedings of the Classical Association of England and Wales. (John Murray. 2s. net.)—The Association was constituted at a meeting held in London last December; it had its first general meeting at Oxford in the May of this year, when various business was transacted (including the settlement of the time for the annual meeting), and two excellent addresses wera delivered: "On the Place of Greek and Latin in Human Life," by Mr. J. W. Mackail, and on " The Reform of Classical Teaching in Schools," by Mr. J. W. Headlam. The Association has our heartiest good wishes. It numbers, we see, not far off a thousand members. This is a good start; but what it wants is public as well as professional support.
