Wonns op REFERENCE.—The Master Printers' Annual, 1920, edited by Mr.
R. A. Austen-Leigh and Mr. Gerard T. Meynell (Spottiswoode, Ballantyne, 10s. net), is a handsome and useful book. As the shoemaker is proverbially reputed to be of all men the worst shod, so the printers, who produce innumerable year-books, have hitherto had none for their own trade. This annual makes amends for past neglect. It contains full particu- lars about the master printers' organizations, the Joint Industrial Council, the trade agreements and other matters, with trade directories and some endow* "miscellaneous information," including a list of words spelt differently by the Oxford and Cambridge Presses.—The South and East African Year Book, 1920 (Sampson Low, 2s. 6d.), edited by Mr. A. Semler Brown and Mr. G. Gordon Brown, has been carefully revised, and contains some new information about South-West Africa, Angola, and Katanga. It in well arranged and has many useful maps. As a practical guide to South Africa Ulu no rival.— The Royal Blue Book for May, 1920 (Kelly's Directories, 7s. 6d. not) has appeared with its customary punctuality and seems to be as accurate as ever.
