Abstract
A classical theorem of Cantor states that the class of all sub-classes of a given class has a cardinal greater than that of the given class. This theorem is here established in a sharpened form, which was suggested to me by a question set by Professor J. M. Whittaker, F.R.S, in the 1950 examination for the Honours B.Sc. Degree at Liverpool.
