WAR HISTORY. TOLD BY PRESS CUTTINGS. POUR HUNDRED VOLUMES. A history of the world war in newspaper cuttings has been acquired' by the New York Historical Society, with funds provided by John D. Rockfeller, jun., writes a London "Evening News" correspondent. The collection covers the period of the war from August, 1914, to December, 1918, and is mounted in 400 volumes of 200 pages each. The cuttings were gathered and assembled by Otto Sprengler, owner of the Argus Press .Clipping Bureau, of New York. There are cuttings from newspapers published in all parts of the Unied States and a considerable number of foreign newspapers. It is believed that the collection, the largest of its kind, will answer every purpose of the student and the scholar in studying the history of the Great War as reflected in the minds of the people and expressed day by day in the press. To this end not only the current news was clipped but also editorial correspondence, special articles, and cartoons. The pages of the volumes are 'about the size of the ordinary newspaper page, and are made of rag paper bound in library buckram. Business Notloss. KOSIE BUS. WAiUKU-PUKEKOHE PASSENQS? SERVICE.
