 PREFATORY NOTE 
 
 The following schedules were made in 1904 by Mr. S. C. Stunt z, 
 under the direction of Mr. Martel, Chief Classifier. The arrange- 
 ment of material relating to navies follows in general the classifi- 
 cation of Military Science which is based upon the " Classification 
 and Index" of the Military Information Division of the Adjutant- 
 General's Office, U. S. War Department. In the arrangement of 
 sailing directions and similar lists in VK, the publications of the 
 British Hydrographic Office were followed in their general order 
 as furnishing the most complete series available for a systematic list. 
 Since 1905 the classification of this subject has been in charge 
 of the undersigned and numerous changes have been made. As the 
 material has not yet been recataloged the schedules are still to 
 be considered as provisional.

 INDEX. 
 
 Names of countries are not included in this index except in the case of pilot guides, 
 tide tables, and a few headings under United States and Great Britain. Pilot guides 
 and tide tables are made an exception on account of the fact that their primary arrange- 
 ment in the schedules is by oceans, seas, etc., and only secondarily by country. In 
 other cases the country subdivisions of any given subject may be readily found by 
 referring to the scheme itself.
