BOONS OF REFERENCE.—The Girls' School Year Book, 1913. (Year Book
Press. 3s. 6d. net.)—This is the official book of reference of the Association of Head Mistresses, and has now reached its eighth year of publication.—The Holidays : Where to Stay and What to See. (Walter Hill,)—The use- fulness of this list of hotels and boarding houses needs no emphasis. The districts covered by the book include those served by six of the great railways, namely, the Midland, North-Western, Great Northern, Great Eastern, Great Western, and Great Central.—We have received a copy of The Nelson Universal Hand-Atlas (Thomas Nelson and Sons. 2s. net), which is intended to serve as a supplement to "Nelson's Encyclopaedia." In spite of the small size of the page, the maps are extremely clear, and on a large enough scale for all practical purposes. This result is secured by means of the exceptional number of maps—two hundred and forty in all—which are contained in the book.
