The 1915 edition of the ‘ ‘ World lmanae and Encyclopedia” is excep
tionally up-to-date, exhaustive, and comprehensive. This perennial publi
cation has become to be a veritable necessity where reference bocks are
used, for it is so compact in form and so far-reaching in its subjects that
it is not to be wondered at that it takes the lead among popular priced ref
erenee books. It contains what the average business and professional man
wants to knoWj and it is used by all compilers and editors, for it has the
advantage of the encyclopedias in so much that in appearing every your it
includes the latest facts and figures of historical, political, diplomatic,
statistical, and civic value. This edition contains STS text pages ami in
cludes among its timely additions a remarkably concise Review the
War in Europe and the Causes of theV. ar, arranged chronological! that
in itself is worth alone the price of the book. This is supplements: l b\
The Mexican Situation and the Colorado Strike. Some of its features are
notes on the wars of the world; the political State reforms of 1914; iotails
of the special or emergency tax; analysis of the prison population; -tory
statistics; workmen’s compensation laws; occupations in the Unite.! ■ tes;
the Federal Reserve Act; the Federal Commission; statistics of foreign
bom population in the United States; facts about the Chinese Republic;
tfee progress and plans of the Palisades Driveway; a paper on the aero
plane and aviation generally in war, etc. There is hardly any line of
fcuman endeavor that is not represent ed in these accurate pages which rep
resent a stupendous result in resear eh work.
