.NATIONAL RESEARCH FELLOW
SHI I'M.
The National Research council in
1919vwas entrusted by the -Rocktoller
Foundation with the expenditure of
an appropriation of halt a million
dollars within a period of nix years
for promoting fundamental research
in physics chemistry and mathematics
primarily In educational institution in
the United 8tates. Recently this grant
has been renewed for a second period
of Ave years and has been Increased
to $625000.
The primary .feature of the plan Is
the Initiation and maintenance of a
system of National Research Fellow-
ships which are to bo awarded by the
National Research Council to persons
who have demonstrated a high order
of ability In research for the purpose
of enabling them to conduct Investi-
gations tut educational institutions
which make adequate provision for ef-
fective prosecution of research In
Physics ChemiBtry and Mathematics.
The results which are expected to fol-
low are the benefit of a scientific
career to a large number of able In-
vestigators and their more thorough
training In research together with an
Increase of knowledge of the funda-
mental principles of Physics Chemis-
try and Mathematics and the creation
of more favorable conditions for re-
search In the educational institutions
of this country.
.These Fellowships are administered
by a Board representative of tho dif-
ferent sciences involved and aro
awarded after careful consideration
to such as may be entitled to them.
The fundamental requirements of ap-
plicant are a Ph. D. degree or its
equivalent evidence from tho post of
high ability and .good . character and
promise for the future from the opin-
ions of men closely associated with

college men are arranging an econo-
mical excursion to Rngland. France
and other European countries this
summer walling from New York for

ton on Juno 21st in the third cabin

un the same ship from Southhampton
and Cherbourg on September Oth.
Only college studonts arc eligible but
students of nil colleges are welcome
to Join the excursion. The "SaxonlaV
entire third class has been reserved

bo admitted.
The cost for the round trip has been
placed nt -1m nud the chairman says
that 'with tho low rate of exchange
prevailing abroad students may enjoy
two months sightseeing and attending
exhibitions fairs athletic meets and
kindred attractions for $400.
Some of the features abroad tho
coming summer will be the British
Kmplre Exposition London; the
Olympic Games Purls; the Ancient
Tallteann Gnmos to be revived in
Dublin; and many lesser events
throughout Great Britain and the con
tlnent.
' Mr. Adams says that the exclusive
third cabin will answer the increased
demand for the economical and com-
fortable mode of trunsportutlon to
Europe. On this excursion non-students
and Immigrants will positively
be excluded from the third class
thereby eliminating what has been
the .economical traveler's only objec-
tion to tho modern third class. The
chairman promises "Good wholesome
British four times a day."

musical instruments along so' that
Imprpmptu parties "song tests' and
