The publication of the list which follows advances another stage the work being done by Mr. G. F. Dixon in compiling and recording per medium of "The Spike" the names of all students who attended lectures at V.U.C. for at least one year during the years 1899 to 1913 inclusive. Similar lists for each of the years 1899 to 1911 have appeared in previous issues.

As regards the list for 1912, Mr. Dixon states that although it is accurate as published both as to names and as to years of attendances shown, it may in a few instances be incomplete as to years of attendance because of the difficulty of verifying attendances during 1914 and 1915, due to the fact that such official records as existed for those two years were unfortunately destroyed years ago and cannot be entirely reconstructed.

The preparation and publication of these lists will doubtless be more fully appreciated when consideration is being given, not so very many years hence, to the matter of fittingly celebrating the Jubilee of Victoria University College.
