Abstract
IT is stated by the Reykjavik correspondent of The Times that the University of Iceland recently celebrated the twenty-ninth anniversary of its foundation by inaugurating a new university building, erected with the proceeds of a lottery authorized by the State. The British Minister, Mr. Charles Howard Smith, was present, and messages of congratulation were received from the Universities of Cambridge, Dublin, Leeds, London, Oxford, and Abo (Finland), and Yale University. The new building is large enough to house all the faculties of the University, which has until now had to make use of temporary quarters in the Parliament Building.
