Abstract
THIS publication, which appears as a result of collaboration between the three student societies named, may conceivably meet with criticism from some readers on the ground of redundancy, seeing that the substance of its most important papers can probably be found in print elsewhere. Others will discern in it a token of the vitality of the societies concerned. Moreover, it is apparent that a student journal of this type can fulfil an important service in broadening the interests of the members of each of the contributing societies. This result can only follow, however, if a judicious selection of the published papers is maintained: besides the more specialised papers, each section of the journal should contain at least one paper of general interest.
