Davidson College in the War is a record of the 955 former students of the Institution who entered the service 1917-18. Of these 223 were in the Students' Army Training Corps, and, of the remainder, 356 were commissioned officers. This will be issued by the Presbyterian Standard Publishing Company, Charlotte, in January 1924. It is a book of around 130 pages and was compiled by Cornelia Shaw, Librarian.

Professor T. W. Lingle and assistans have prepatred an Alumni Catalogue of Davidson College which is now in the hands of the printers. This volume is expected in February. The last Alumni Catalogue was issued in 1891. The edition being prepared at this time will be of deep interest to all Davidson men. Information, so far as it has been possible to obtain it, will be given in regard to the matriculates of the College—numbering approximately 5,800 since its opening in 1837.
