The "Daily Mail" Year - Book. Seventh Year of Issue. Edited by
Percy L. Parker. (Asso ciated Press. 6c1. net.)—This " Hand- book to All the Questions of the Year" is a most handy and useful little volume. One question, noted elsewhere, is that of the errand-boy. Dr. Macnamara puts it forcibly when he says that "at any one time we have a steadily recruited army of a million and a half young fellows" who are being thrust or allowed to drift into a condition of inefficiency. Other questions are Employ- ment, Imperial Councils, Egypt, Morocco, Census of Production, Reform of London Government, Exports and Imports, Savings Banks. Certainly there is no lack of them. In addition, the work contains a most concise but informing biographical dictionary in miniature, in which most of the prominent men of the day are included.
