Abstract
THE “King's Engineer”, the annual of the Engineering Society and the Engineering Branch of the Old Students' Association of King's College, London, which has recently been published, is one of the most interesting publications of its kind and affords evidence of the engineering activity of the College. Fourteen papers were read by the members of the Engineering Society during the year, and four of these are reprinted in the annual. The paper on the “Development of High-Speed Compression Ignition Engines”, by V. H. F. Hopkins, was the prize essay. Another paper of considerable interest is that by A. H. Jenkins on “China-Clay and China-Clay Mining in the West of England”. The number is issued as a memorial volume to Prof. Ernest Wilson, who for more than thirty years was professor of electrical engineering, and who endeared himself to all King's College students. Prof. G. Cook gives an appreciation of Prof. Wilson's work, and a list of his papers.
