CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY CALENDAR, 1922-1923. (Cambridge University Press. 15s.)—SUPPLEMENT (1911-20) TO

THE HISTORICAL REGISTER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE. (Same Publisher. 8s. 6d.) The Syndics of the Cambridge University Press have very wisely decided " to lighten the ever-increasing bulk " of the Calendar by transferring a good deal of matter, such as records of office-holders, Tripos lists, and so on, to the Historical Register, and by condensing or omitting details that appear in the Ordinances and elsewhere. All the chief features of the Calendar are left as they were before, and the new arrangement is a distinct gain, as most people will prefer a handy, compact volume even if it does not contain everything. The Historical Register (of institutions, offices, Tripos lists, &c.) was published in 1917; but only extended to 1910. The present supplement covers the years 1911-1920. Both volumes have been indexed with the usual thoroughness.
