INTRODUCTION.

THE 1912 edition of the R.A.C. Year Book, the Club's annual book of reference, is printed from new clear type, and the book generally is produced in better style than heretofore. The whole of the contents has been carefully revised and edited under the supervision of the Year Book Committee.

Additions have been made to the tables of metric weights and measures, etc., which now appear in the Technical Section, and a useful table of foreign moneys with British equivalents been added to the Touring Section. Among the new articles are those on "Reflex Lights" for farm carts, etc., and on the work of the Road Board. The Car Directory, with the ess of the manufacturers and their London agents, 79 revised in accordance with the latest information btainable.

The use of thick flexible cards between the different Sections has been continued, as they are found convenient for quick reference, whilst a comprehensive General Index will be found at the end of the Book.

Suggestions from Members and Associates will be welcomed by the YEAR BOOK Committee, and it is specially requested that errors and omissions be pointed out. Communications $ould be sent in as early as possible (not later than the 30th eptember, to be in time for consideration for the next issue), addressed The Editor, R.A.C. YEAR BOOK, c/o The Secretary, ROYAL AUTOMOBILE CLUB, Pall Mall, London, S.W.
